- Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
- It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
- If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
- Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
- When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
- If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
- Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.
Happy editing! Cheers, 〜 Adflatuss • talk 13:52, 4 August 2024 (UTC)
- Good morning Adflatuss. Thank you for the welcome. I will do my best.

August 2024
[edit] Thank you for your contributions. It seems that you may have added public domain content to one or more Wikipedia articles, such as Aymara people. You are welcome to import appropriate public domain content to articles, but in order to meet the Wikipedia guideline on plagiarism, such content must be fully attributed. This requires not only acknowledging the source, but acknowledging that the source is copied. There are several methods to do this described at Wikipedia:Plagiarism#Public-domain sources, including the usage of an attribution template. Please make sure that any public domain content you have already imported is fully attributed. While the text was placed into a block quote, if it wasn't pd, it would be on the edge of being unacceptable. Whenever you copy from pd source, please add a notice like I did. Thanks!

- Good morning, thank you very much for helping me to do the correct thing. I have read the links you gave me. I think I cam unstuck because I did not recognise the work as in the PD. Was it the date of the work that should have told me or was it something else I missed? I knew that you cannot directly take text from any other source, hence the block quotation, author's name and inline citation but I know now I also need the attribution template. That is super because I want to do the right thing. With my kind regards and thanks again, Vera.Grace (talk) 23:35, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 12
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aymara people, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Castile. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Gae Aulenti
[edit]Much enjoying seeing the great work you are doing on the Gae Aulenti article! Cheers, Cl3phact0 (talk) 15:28, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- It is my pleasure. Please tell me if there are any problems. :-)

- Once you have finished, it might be worth nominating the article for WP:GA and/or WP:DYK (it is probably substantially different enough for this, but the criteria also takes article size into consideration in ways I have never fully understood). In any case, the article is very much improved, which is what really counts. Well done! -- Cl3phact0 (talk) 15:45, 1 September 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for your kind words. I found Gae a fascinating woman in a field of which I had no knowledge. I did not know of the GA or DYK things and I am not one to seek praise but what the heck ;-) I will give it a go. :-) Have an awsome day,

Your GA nomination of Gae Aulenti
[edit]Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Gae Aulenti you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period.
