Hello, BellaGB, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Elysia 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.

Hi BellaGB, I have made some minor formatting revisions to your sandbox. I think the sandbox content looks good overall and is ready to move to mainspace. However, biographies should refer to their subject by their surnames or fullnames. Wikipedia policies decided it was too "familiar" to refer to the subject by their first name alone. So I encourage you to go through and change usage of "Miriam" to "she", "Miriam Polster", or simply "Polster" in cases where she couldn't be confused with her husband.

Confusing edits

[edit]

Hi there. I'm not too sure what was going on, but it appears that you have redirected Miriam Polster to your user page, which is not accepted here. Thanks, Willbb234Talk (please {{ping}} me in replies) 17:58, 28 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]
