Welcome!

Hello, Valerievu1, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; 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 complete the student training, 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.

You can find answers to many student questions on our Q&A site, ask.wikiedu.org

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:20, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sandboxes

Best practice is to create draft articles in a sandbox, preferably on that bears a template like {{student sandbox}} which identifies it as an article draft. Drafting articles on your user page is frowned upon. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 20:23, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
