Welcome!

Hello, Kav026, 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.

Hi, I saw that you had posted content to the article for the NCNW. I saw that you had taken the timeline from the B-CU website - this is dangerously close to being a copyright issue and plagiarism since it was taken verbatim, however it looks like there was an attempt to mark it as a quote. I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt with this, however I did remove it from the page. It needs to be written in paragraph/prose format in your own words and it also needs to be more clearly tied into the organization.

I also need to caution you that Wikipedia cannot be used as a source. The reason for this is that anyone can edit Wikipedia, so it will never be seen as a reliable source to back up claims like this. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 13:13, 6 May 2019 (UTC)
