Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, Nkelika14! Thank you for your contributions. I am Bluerasberry and I have been editing Wikipedia for some time, so if you have any questions feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. You can also check out Wikipedia:Questions or type {{help me}}

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that will automatically produce your username and the date. I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Blue Rasberry (talk) 18:07, 14 January 2015 (UTC)
Review of your edits
editHello! I looked over your edits. You know how to properly use citations when adding statements. You found a reliable source, the website of a reputable museum, you took information from that source, and anyone can verify what you added to Wikipedia by following your citation.
I noticed that you edited an article about an artist. The community of editors on Wikipedia who develop art topics is one of the more active ones. One of the more popular Wikipedia events is happening soon - it is called Art and Feminism, and is an international meetup which this year will happen the first weekend of March in various places to invite anyone, especially women, to share information about art on Wikipedia. I thought you might like to know that what you did is part of a larger trend that more people are demanding to know more about the art they enjoy and the artists that create it, and increasingly artists themselves are benefiting more in their careers when they have an online media presence.
Thanks also for sorting the name. If you look at the bottom of the article you will see a box of numbers labeled "authority control". This goes to library records about everything a person has ever published, as with this VIAF record. Right now it is more Wikipedia jargon, but in the future, the hope is that names and relationships can be traced in all directions, including between parents and children, colleagues and coworkers, and otherwise use personal data like name and location to better trace what kinds of publications come from which social circles or geographical locations. Having sources for name changes helps keep records straight. Blue Rasberry (talk) 16:00, 13 February 2015 (UTC)
