H annavan
Hello, H annavan, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Yunshui, and as you already know I am your Online Ambassador for the UBC Human Ecology course. Thanks for introducing yourself on my talkpage. My job here is to help you to work within Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, to answer any questions that you have about editing here, and to act as your advocate in the (unlikely) event that you find yourself in a dispute with another user.
You are welcome to contact me at any time by leaving a message on my Wikipedia talkpage or by emailing me. I will usually respond to any messages within 24 hours (though I aim to be faster!), but if you need more immediate help, you can ask questions of experienced editors at The Teahouse or get live help via Wikipedia's IRC channel (connect here).
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
- Introduction to Wikipedia
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Wikipedia's Simplified Manual of Style
Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes (~~~~); this will automatically insert your username and the date. Once again, if you need help with any aspect of Wikipedia, please just ask; it's what I'm here for. Enjoy your course! Yunshui 雲水 07:59, 9 January 2014 (UTC)
Comments on your BIOL 345 proposal
editThis page is clearly needed. Here are some suggestions and questions to consider:
*What non-Wikipedia sources will you be able to use? International sources about car-free days? Local sources (neighbourhood newspapers (e.g. The West-Ender)? * What other Wikipedia pages will you link to? * What other Wikipedia pages will you create links from, to this new page? * Can you find a non-copyright photo of a Vancouver car-free day? Try flickr - you can email the photographer for permission. * Doesn't Stanley Park sometimes have car-free days? * Please do your composing and editing in a Wikipedia sandbox. This will help build your familiarity with Wikipedia and will also allow me to keep an eye on your progress, offering help if I think it's appropriate.
