Some common sense Do's and Don'ts:
  Do be bold
  Do assume good faith
  Do be civil
  Do keep cool!
  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
  Don't vandalize

If you need further help, you can:

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
           
  Perform maintenance tasks
  Become a member of a project that interests you

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Edward Frankland

[edit]

I just noted that you went a few times in the wrong while piping articles in Edward Frankland.

The correct way to do it is not [[Churchtown|Kirkland, Lancashire]] but [[Kirkland, Lancashire|Churchtown]]. In short, it should be: [[target article name|visible name]]

I hope this saves you a few glitches in future.

Happy editing and it was an interesting article. The Banner talk 23:05, 5 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

A page you started (Queen Victoria Memorial, Lancaster) has been reviewed!

[edit]

Thanks for creating Queen Victoria Memorial, Lancaster, Paul2point0!

Wikipedia editor ClemRutter just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Nice, painstaking piece of work. Its best to keep the lead short- so I have split it and moved the recent history paragraph down. Personally I would add a little context about Ashton, and his role in the town. Thanks.
