Welcome![edit]

Hello, Jenn.reed, 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.

Sources and links[edit]

Thanks for your additions to the memory span article. I noticed though, that your reference to Radvansky and Ashcraft goes through Pearson's website, so I'm guessing it's to an electronic version of the book. Looking at the URL, I'm guessing that it takes you to a specific page; unfortunately, that page number isn't accessible to people who aren't using the e-textbook. It would be very helpful for readers if you treated it like a normal reference - page numbers and the edition of the text. That way the information is verifiable to people regardless of what form the text is in, and regardless of whether Pearson changes the way it creates URLs. Thanks.
