To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put

editLmhorn1, Good work! You're off to a strong start by creating your account, editing your user page and sending me a message on my talk page. You'll receive your assigned journalist shortly. Crtew (talk) 05:43, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
Your page is a model for other students to follow!
editCrtew has given you a goldfish! Goldfish promote WikiLove and hopefully this one has made your day much better. Spread the WikiLove by giving someone else a goldfish, whether it be someone you have had disagreements with in the past or a good friend.
Give someone a goldfish by adding {{subst:Goldfish}} to their talk page with a friendly message. Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalised, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed.
Lmhorn1, I've selected your page as a model for other students to follow. You did your work in a timely manner, you did it right, and I think your bio is appropriate! Keep up the good work, Crtew (talk) 16:39, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
María Isabella Cordero
editCordero exemplifies what has been happening in Chihuahua and she is a woman who crossed from journalism to public relations. There is a lot of information out there on María Isabella Cordero, who at one time was a local Televisa news presenter but later shifted to public relations, however the material is in Spanish. If you're comfortable with that and the translations, it's ok:
- LAHT (English)[1]
- El Paso Times (English)[2]
- KTSM , Channel 9, NBC affiliate (El Paso) (English)[3]
- El Heraldo de Chihuahua[4]
- Vanguardia[5]
What do you think? Crtew (talk) 17:14, 1 September 2012 (UTC)
I would still like to use Cordero for my assignment. Google has a "translate this page" option so I think I will be ok with the translations :) Lmhorn1 (talk) 00:54, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse!
editHello! Lmhorn1,
you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us!

I, and the rest of the hosts, would be more than happy to answer any questions you have! SarahStierch (talk) 16:16, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
Notability and infobox
editLmhorn1, She worked for the Chihuahua Televisa channel (Televisa is a network) and the local branch of the Canaco. I've added two Spanish sources to clarify. Also she was not a journalist at the time she was murdered. The violence has also touched public relations, which is unusual. You might want to refocus your notability around that. She was known for both. Besides the corrections to the infobox and notability, keep working on the main parts. I'll look back at the notability statement at a later stage before submission.

Hi Lmhorn1! Women around the world who edit and contribute to Wikipedia are coming together to celebrate each other's work, support one another, and engage new women to also join in on the empowering experience of shaping the sum of all the world's knowledge - through the WikiWomen's Collaborative. As a WikiWoman, we'd love to have you involved! You can do this by:
We can't wait to have you involved, and feel free to drop by our meta page (under construction) to see how else you can get involved! |
Khbarton peer review
editThe article you have done is very interesting. The amount of detailed information used in the personal, career, and death portions is impressive.
The suggestions are just questions I had after reading the article, hope they help. Why is Chihuahua considered the most violent state? Who declared war on the drug cartels? Why are journalists, and now PR people, being killed? Khbarton (talk) 01:16, 24 October 2012 (UTC)
Wikipedia Education Program: student survey!
editHi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester! In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it would be very helpful to hear from real program students about their experience, so we know what to change. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!
Thanks so much! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 01:52, 18 December 2012 (UTC)

DYK for María Isabella Cordero
editOn 28 December 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article María Isabella Cordero, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that María Isabella Cordero, a former Mexican anchorwoman on Televisa, was killed in Mexico's most violent state in 2010? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/María Isabella Cordero. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |

- Wow, you made the front page of Wikipedia today! The article you started appeared in the "Did You Know" section on Wikipedia's front page. This increases the numbers of readers significantly. Congratulations! Crtew (talk) 15:03, 28 December 2012 (UTC)
