Please don’t bite me, I’m a newbie!
I’m a university student in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how to contribute to Wikipedia.
I am approaching my subject in good faith.
If you have any concerns or questions, my tutor’s name is Carrolquadrio (talk · contribs). Thanks!
This article is currently the subject of an educational assignment. |

- Thanks Brycehughes for taking a look at my page, I realise that I am still new and taking a University course on writing a Wikipedia article, and I appreciate you taking the time to undo any work that might not have been useful. --Lawrys16 (talk) 23:38, 1 November 2020 (UTC)
A cupcake for you!

editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions; however, please remember the essential rule of respecting copyrights. Edits to Wikipedia, such as your edit to the page Serpentine Dam (Western Australia), may not contain material from copyrighted sources unless used with permission. It is almost never okay to copy extensive text out of a book or website and paste it into a Wikipedia article with little or no alteration, though you can clearly and briefly quote copyrighted text in the right circumstances. Content that does not comply with this legal rule must be removed. For more information on this, see:

- Thanks Diannaa for taking the time to look through and improve on my contributions. I am a new Wikipedia editor and this is part of an educational assignment, and I would like to apologize for extensively copying text from sources. I will try my best to stick with the rules and respect copyright from now on. - Lawrys16 (talk) 16:40, 16 November 2020 (UTC)
