Welcome
editHello, Sayabery and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.
If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Help me}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.
Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.
Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.
We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! --I am k6ka Talk to me! See what I have done 16:30, 27 August 2015 (UTC)

Halictus rubicundus
edit
Nice work on the Halictus rubicundus article. I wonder if you would like to consider submitting it as a candidate for the "Did you know...?" feature. DYKs (as they are commonly called) are short snippets taken from Wikipedia's newest articles and, if approved, appear on the Main Page. You can learn more about this by clicking on the image to the right to access a nice pdf outlining the process. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 12:20, 29 September 2015 (UTC)
DYK for Halictus rubicundus
edit | On 19 October 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Halictus rubicundus, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Halictus rubicundus is a sweat bee that exhibits both solitary and eusocial behavior depending on its geographic location? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Halictus rubicundus. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |
