Welcome!

Hello, Micha03, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; 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.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) ( talk) 15:20, 8 September 2023 (UTC) reply

Tangier Island

Hi! I noticed your edits on Tangier, Virginia and I just want to make sure my reversion didn't discourage you to work further on the page. Your sandbox appears to have a few good ideas on how to expand the "reduction in landmass" section of the article; that's an excellent idea and I encourage you to pursue it further. If that section gets overly large/in-depth compared to the rest of the article it can always be WP:SPLIT into an article specifically on Tangier's landmass reduction, but we can cross that bridge if/when we come to it. It appears you're editing as part of a university class (great to see!) and thus might be understandably unfamiliar with some of how Wikipedia works; feel free to leave messages on the article's talk page for questions about the content there or on my talk page if you have more general questions about how to edit Wikipedia. Happy editing! AviationFreak 💬 20:10, 19 October 2023 (UTC) reply

Thank you for reaching out! Could you perhaps explain why they were reversed? I'm working on getting a better understanding of the correct formatting practices. If you could that would be great! I will be sure to reach out to you and discuss in the talk page in the future for more information about the page before making large edits. Micha03 ( talk) 21:56, 19 October 2023 (UTC) reply
My apologies, I just saw the reasoning. Thank you for letting me know, it will definitely help me with citing in the future. Micha03 ( talk) 22:01, 19 October 2023 (UTC) reply
All good, glad you found it :) AviationFreak 💬 22:11, 19 October 2023 (UTC) reply
