Welcome!

Hello, Amelia.dittmar, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Adding public-domain material

I noticed that this edit of yours included content copied nearly verbatim from your source. Since the source was produced by the US Federal Government and thus isn't subject to copyright, it's OK to copy from them, but if you use their words with only minor changes like you did in this edit, you need to make sure that you attribute this properly. I added the tag for you. You can see the full list of possible tags at Category:United States government attribution templates. If you need help using them, please get in touch.
