Welcome!

Hello, LMGouge, 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.

Video game journalism

Hi! I wanted to give you a bit of a head's up with the article. Video game journalism is seen as a fairly controversial article on Wikipedia, primarily due to Gamergate. This means that the article is fairly frequently monitored and as such, you need to make sure that you're careful with your sourcing and edits. Make sure that you're using the best possible sourcing and writing neutrally. I would also strongly recommend that you post to the article's talk page to let the other editors know what you plan on adding, as this will give them the opportunity to give you feedback and general advice about the additions. If anyone removes or otherwise challenges your content, please discuss the removal on the talk page before making any other actions. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:02, 24 April 2018 (UTC)
