Welcome![edit]

Hello, Sendi Mejia, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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.

Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Senna spectabilis, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page.

Please stop removing maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia without resolving the problem that the template refers to. This may be considered disruptive editing. Further edits of this type may result in your account being blocked from editing. Praxidicae (talk) 19:42, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. It looks like your edit introduced text that was too close to the wording of one of your sources. Keep in mind that your contributions need to be entirely in your own words. It might be helpful for you to review the Plagiarism and Copyright training module before proceeding further.

Also remember that you should never edit war with other Wikipedians, as you were doing on that article. If someone reverts your work and you aren't sure what the problem was, open a discussion with them on the talk page of the article. Don't re-instate the content they removed. This is especially important when you're dealing with copyright issues. Thanks. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:35, 10 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
