Welcome!

Hello, Gingerlemondrink, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

You may also want to take the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit The Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome!

Event listing

edit

Hello, thanks for creating this page! I hope this event goes well. Just a recommendation - when you publish this page by moving it out of drafts to its own title, it's best to add it to the calendar and template. This allows people to find and track it, and also will likely increase the likelihood of remote support from experienced contributors who can correct mistakes on pages created and give feedback to new contributors. (Thanks for adding the category already though!) Hope this is helpful to you, let me know if any thoughts or questions. Blythwood (talk) 04:26, 1 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

Hi Gingerlemondrink. Exciting to see the Maynooth event taking shape. We've created two images for the Galway event on the 9th, and you might like to use one or both. They are both uploaded to Commons:

Hi Sharonlflynn. Thank you very much for sending on your lovely images to us. I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply. My colleague Brian found an image that we used but we sure do appreciate you sharing with us and getting in touch. We were pleased with our edithathon. In particular we managed to get the word out to faculty members about the great benefits of using Wikipedia in teaching. I hope your event in Galway also went really well. All best wishes.
