Welcome!

Hello, Amillard, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Shalor 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.

Fake news

Hi! I wanted to say that the inclusion of content about Nicolas Negroponte was an interesting addition to the fake news article. Isn't it fascinating to see how pre-Internet predictions turn out? I remember reading an article from the 40s or 50s on researching procedures (can't remember who wrote it) and the author's predictions on what the future would hold weren't that far from what technology currently offers.

Just be careful when it comes to wording like "you" and "our", as this type of wording is avoided on Wikipedia. I've tweaked the section for you, so you don't have to do anything, but just be cautious. :) Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:35, 5 September 2017 (UTC)
