Hello, Ellapearcy and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Go through our online training for students

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 22:12, 10 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Ellapearcy, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

License tagging for File:El.Primo.Kathleen.jpeg

edit

Thanks for uploading File:El.Primo.Kathleen.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 17:30, 6 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Kathleen Gilje

edit

Thanks for your additions to the Kathleen Gilje article. I noticed that the information you added lacked sourcing. Please keep in mind that everything you add to Wikipedia needs to be tied directly to a reliable source - and this is doubly true for articles about living people. After the statement, there should be a source. You can use a single source to support several sentences in a row, if it supports everything you say in those sentences, but you need to have at least one source per paragraph, and you shouldn't have any text after the final reference in a paragraph (because that content is effectively unsourced).

If you need a refresher on how to add citations, please consult this training module. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:32, 11 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Also remember that it's better to add content in several smaller edits rather than one big one. This allows other editors to revert anything they find problematic without having to revert your entire addition to the article. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:34, 11 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
