Help me!

[edit]

Please help me with editing and writing a wikipedia article. I have a degree in history, and alot of experience researching and writing proposals, and blog articles, but feel kind of lost here. I tried adding/citing references to my article, and kept having a hard time adding them for whatever reason. I now saw that it isnt a good idea to write an autobiography, and feel like I just made a big mistake. I did it to clear the air about some nasty rumors about me, in addition to practicing a bit, but failed miserably... Would love if there was some kind of 1 on 1 tutoring class on mastering wikipedia with someone, or to teach me how to navigate wikipedia like a pro :( ... In other words, H E L P Please!

Adoption

[edit]

Hi Solonz1, and thanks for your recent personal email requesting adoption. I appreciate your confidence in me, but I must politely decline, I'm afraid. Please don't take this at all personally, and don't be discouraged, but I am looking for a longer, proven history of editing and a real commitment to enhance Wikipedia if I am to commit to work with an editor. The Adopt-a-User scheme works best, in my view, if it supports those who have already demonstrated a willingness to work across multiple topics and now want to improve their skills, whereas the Teahouse and Help Desk better serve those newer editors, like yourself, who need quick guidance on doing particular tasks. I and my fellow Teahouse hosts will be happy to continue helping you there, of course. Do continue with The Wikipedia Adventure and check out the many useful links on your talk page welcome notice. Many thanks, and regards from the UK, Nick Moyes (talk) 10:13, 1 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]
