Welcome!

Hello, Nbrown16, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

The Decemberists

Greetings!

Two quick points: First is that you assigned the article The decemberists instead of The Decemberists. They both sort of go to the same place but the former uses a redirect. That said, upper and lowercase matters on Wikipedia so I reassigned the "capitalized version. I know it's pedantic!

Second, I think you might want to talk to Khascall or myself about this choice of an article. This article is really quite excellent and long. I think you'll find that it's much easier to make a major improvement to an article that is shorter, smaller, and generally in rougher shape. —mako๛ 23:20, 18 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello Professor Mako! Thanks for letting me know. I think I might have assigned the wrong article than I intended. I was planning to edit a much smaller article that focused on the band's first EP album. I think I pasted the wrong link, so my mistake! Will get that fixed as soon as possible.--Nbrown16 (talk) 00:27, 27 January 2022 (UTC)

preliminary feedback on article

Hi, I'm starting to walk through articles and give everyone informal early feedback on how they're doing. You'll notice this is a little bit form-letter-ish but I hope it is still helpful.

I don't see your article, though, or at least not in the spot where I expected it. Can you point me to the location of the article you are working on? I see that you're doing work on gathering sources -- that's good, but there's quite a bit left to do. Please let me know if I can help you to make progress.

Hi Kaylea! Is the article not showing up in the assigned articles section? Or does it not show up in my sandbox?--Nbrown16 (talk) 19:17, 28 January 2022 (UTC)

What I see is that you copied just the Trivia section into your sandbox -- I don't see any edits to the section. Kaylea Champion (talk) 22:36, 28 January 2022 (UTC)
