An extended welcome

Hi MagnoliaMenace. Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you don't mind if I share some of my thoughts on starting out as a new editor on Wikipedia: If I could get editors in your situation to follow just one piece of advice, it would be this: Learn Wikipedia by working only on non-contentious topics until you have a feel for the normal editing process and the policies that usually come up when editing casually. You'll find editing to be fun, easy, and rewarding. The rare disputes are resolved quickly and easily.

Working on biographical information about living persons is far more difficult. Wikipedia's Biographies of living persons policy requires strict adherence to multiple content policies, and applies to all information about living persons including talk pages.

If you have a relationship with the topics you want to edit, then you will need to review Wikipedia's Conflict of interest policy, which may require you to disclose your relationship and restrict your editing depending upon how you are affiliated with the subject matter. Regardless, editing in a manner that promotes an entity or viewpoint over others can appear to be detrimental to the purpose of Wikipedia and the neutrality required in articles.

Some topic areas within Wikipedia have special editing restrictions that apply to all editors. It's best to avoid these topics until you are extremely familiar with all relevant policies and guidelines.

I hope you find some useful information in all this, and welcome again. --Ronz (talk) 21:40, 27 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The Booths were not a Jewish family

Your source says, once I found it, that the Junius had a Jewish father and an Anglican mother. How does that make his progeny a Jewish family? And of course for most Orthodox Jews Junius wouldn't be Jewish as his mother wasn't. I don't even understand the point of your edit. 11:32, 18 July 2019 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Doug Weller (talk • contribs)

The point of my edit was to describe the progenitor of the Booth family as being ethnically English Jewish. Not to insinuate that Booth himself was a practicing Jew. (MagnoliaMenace (talk) 12:38, 2 September 2019 (UTC))[reply]
