editHi Lucy Haleea.
I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.
Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.
If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter.
Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.
I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 16:04, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
- Hello Ronz , thank you very much for your tips, I understand your positioning. It was not my intention to create conflict. Lucy Haleea (talk) 16:21, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks. I've started a discussion at Talk:BreakTudo Awards. My thoughts are at this point we might be able to establish notability via WP:EVENT rather than WP:GNG. I'm not sure, and will continue to look for ways to get help. --Ronz (talk) 18:40, 31 January 2018 (UTC)
