Mentor

[edit]

Hi, welcome to Wikipedia. I've been selected as your mentor to help you through your project. As luck would have it, I have a little bit of a background in telecommunications. I worked for AT&T for 10 years. I started as a sales rep with Pacific Bell, was promoted to management in a year and became a software developer for SBC Communications and a fraud investigator. Before the merger with AT&T, I transferred to Nevada Bell as an analyst and finished my career with them running the dispatch center in Reno, Nevada before moving on to bigger and better things. I've been editing on Wikipedia for a little over 5 years. I mostly work on articles related to my hobbies (custom knife collecting, music, animals, martial arts) and a few related to my business as a sportwriter (professional and amateur boxing, mma, collegiate wrestling) and as a firearms and combatives instructor. The writing style on wikipedia is encyclopedic and in what is known as a summary-style; it often reminds me of writing a term paper as opposed to a magazine or newspaper article. I can help you out mostly in the form of finding reliable sources and formatting references. If you have any questions, leave me a message on my talk page or send me an email for any "offline correspondence", that link is on the left hand side of my talk page. I look forward to working with you.--Mike - Μολὼν λαβέ 21:17, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for uploading File:Chidi_Iwuoma.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of that website's terms of use of its content. However, if the copyright holder is a party unaffiliated from the website's publisher, that copyright should also be acknowledged.

If you have uploaded other files, consider verifying that you have specified sources for those files as well. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log.
