Welcome!
[edit]Hello, Taylorsheawest, 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.

[edit]Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at Talk:Where the Wild Things Are (film), is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. – Wallyfromdilbert (talk) 23:07, 18 September 2019 (UTC)

[edit]Hello, I'm Magnolia677. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Kacey Musgraves, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:14, 16 October 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:Murray Ice Cream Festival
[edit]A tag has been placed on your user page, User:Murray Ice Cream Festival, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be advertising which only promotes or publicises someone or something. Promotional editing of any kind is not permitted, whether it be promotion of a person, company, product, group, service, belief, or anything else. This is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages — user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources or advertising space. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Whpq (talk) 13:36, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Icecreamfestival.jpg
[edit]A tag has been placed on File:Icecreamfestival.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the file appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images taken from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the image belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use it — which means allowing other people to use it for any reason — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. The same holds if you are not the owner but have their permission. If you are not the owner and do not have permission, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission for how you may obtain it. You might want to look at Wikipedia's copyright policy for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Whpq (talk) 13:37, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Digital media use and mental health
[edit]Hi. I reverted your additions to the Digital media use and mental health article. That article is Featured Article, which means that it is among Wikipedia's best work. It's important that additions to Featured Articles conform fully with Wikipedia's Style Manual. Featured Articles are challenging to work on.
- The section of cyberbullying is meant to just be a brief summary of the topic as it relates to the main topic of the article. Most of the details, including the detailed definition of what constitutes cyberbullying, belongs in the main cyberbullying article.
- Wikipedia is an international encyclopedia, so when you saying things like
Laws may vary from state to state, but are usually treated as civil cases instead of criminal cases
you need to specify what country you're talking about. If you're going to discuss laws and penalties regarding cyberbullying, you should try to be make statements that are broadly true, and then illustrate them with examples from a range of individual countries. - You need to make sure that everything you add to Wikipedia can be easily connected to the supporting source. At minimum, there should be one reference at the end of each paragraph. One reference is ok if it supports everything in the paragraph - if some content is not supported by that source, you need additional sources. The only source you added doesn't appear to say anything about trolling or flaming, so it wouldn't be an adequate source to support your entire addition.
