Tips

• 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, JarrahTree 08:37, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Happy editing! JarrahTree 08:19, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Thank you for noticing my contributions! As of now, I'm currently working preferably on fixing Bare URLs as a starting point, but it feels nice to be included to this community! When the oppurtunity grants itself, I'll help out in other ways! :)

This is also my first message in terms of Wikipedia talk pages, so that's a nice experience to finally have!

It can be very daunting at the first instance... I have added a more detailed welcome template that should help... JarrahTree 08:34, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

Minor means minor

See WP:MINOR for when to tag your edits as minor. David notMD (talk) 17:38, 21 December 2023 (UTC)

Alright. I kind of had an idea, since I've visited that help page before, but sometimes its harder to determine if my edits are minor ones. I still try to make the best judgement based on the help page and what I did though.

Flourine article history

Hi - just a heads-up that this edit did produce a visible result, by incorrectly removing the page from Category:Featured articles that have appeared on the main page twice. I've requested that maindate1 be created as an alias for maindate in {{article history}}, but in the meantime I've reverted the change. — Voice of Clam (talk) 07:58, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

Alright, thanks for telling me this. I’ll be aware of this for future edits. — Alex26337 (talk) 14:12, 24 January 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

• I would also note that you may be eligible to pick up a reward at the Reward Board, so feel free to swing that way! —Ganesha811 (talk) 21:30, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for this barnstar! (This is technically my first barnstar, so I do feel proud about it!) — Alex26337 (talk) 18:08, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

A Barnstar for you!

		The Good Article Barnstar
		Improving broad-concept articles is a difficult task for anyone, let alone someone undergoing their first GAN. Congrats on your work getting Society recognized! {{u|Sdkb}} talk 22:55, 31 January 2024 (UTC)

Thank you very much, and I do hope to work with vital articles more in the future! — Alex26337 (talk) 18:08, 8 February 2024 (UTC)

Thank you

Hey Alex, thanks for working with me to improve society. I hope to see you around improving other vital articles. —Of the universe (talk) 22:49, 9 February 2024 (UTC)

Same to you! I'll try to stay connected on improving these articles, but I'll also take my time as well! :D — Alex26337 (talk) 22:55, 9 February 2024 (UTC)
