Welcome!

Hello, Undeemiss, 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.

Transphobia - consider using the Talk page first

Hello, Undeemiss, and welcome to Wikipedia! I see that you are signed up for editing Transphobia. As you learn about Transphobia, and about how to use Wikipedia, it's worth keeping in mind that this article is in a controversial topic area, and has a lot of interested editors monitoring changes to the article. I would recommend adding a new discussion section to the Talk page first (you know about Talk pages, right?), describing your proposed changes before attempting to change the article content itself.

The talk page is called Talk:Transphobia, and you can create a new discussion at the bottom of the page. The section should have a section header of your choice; you could call it something like: == Proposed changes by student editor ==. In that section, I would advise you to add a paragraph or two of text just outlining in your own words, what you plan to add to the article. You don't have to copy your actual text there; if there is article-ready text in your sandbox, you could link to it (typing [[User:Undeemiss/sandbox|my sandbox]] will add the clickable link, my sandbox). Or, just briefly summarize what your planned changes are. I would include a bullet list of the references you plan to include (or re-use) in your Talk section as well.

In this way, experienced users can look over your plans and your list of references, and offer you any suggestions or help you might need, in order to make a successful addition to the article. Feel free to call on me by {{reply}}ing below; you can also ask for help from Wiki Ed content expert Ian either here, or on his Talk page. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 11:35, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
