Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:
- Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
- With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button (
or 
) located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.
Thank you.
Hi Cloud. I hope you can write some great content. If you have an attractive image you might be able to attract many readers. I will add you to the education program page. I am a volunteer working from Australia, so my timezone overlaps with yours quite a bit. You are welcome to ask me questions on my talk page or to use email on this screen: Special:EmailUser/Graeme_Bartlett. I am looking forward to your new article and your improvements to Wikipedia.

Add references early
editHello again Cloud. A suggestion to you is to add your references as you go. Then when you have multiple sources, you and others will not be confused about where the information came from. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 10:54, 12 October 2016 (UTC)
DYK for Detrital zircon geochronology
edit
On 19 January 2017, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Detrital zircon geochronology, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that detrital zircon geochronology uses zirconium silicate to determine the age of sedimentary rock? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Detrital zircon geochronology. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Detrital zircon geochronology), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
