Welcome to Wikipedia!
Welcome! My name is Sadads, and I'm one of the Online Ambassadors assisting students who are contributing to WikiProject United States Public Policy. We're excited to work with you, and we hope you'll stick around. If you haven't already, take a few minutes and check out the handy links below to start sharing your knowledge with the world. Welcome! Your class is part of a pilot project for bridging the gap between Wikipedia and the academic world; as you learn how to edit Wikipedia, we'll be learning how to better help newcomers. So it will be a fun learning experience all around! You'll find links below for leaving feedback or getting help. If you need anything further, feel free to contact me at my user talk page. And don't forget: have fun! Sadads (talk) 00:11, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

Mentor

Hello,

I'm Smallman12q (though you can call me small). I'll be working with you and Hawley on Energy security (though, if for some reason you don't like me, you are welcome to switch to another mentor). The article on energy security is indeed lacking...at just over a thousand words, it doesn't even cover the bare minimums. The article, as barren and neglected as it seems, represents a highly contentious topic, and as such, please be sure to cite your sources and maintain a neutral point of view. If you have any questions, please let me know on my talk page or at the article talk page. Cheers! Smallman12q (talk) 23:03, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
