Welcome!

Hello, StephanieM, Welcome to Wikipedia!

I hope you like working here and want to continue. If you need help on how to name new articles, look at Naming Conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the Manual of Style. If you need general help, look at Help and the FAQ, and if you can't find your answer there, check the Village pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions). There's still more help at the Tutorial and the Policy Library. Also, don't forget to visit the Community Portal — and if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my New-Users' Talk Page.

Additional tips:

Here are some extra tips to help you get around Wikipedia:

If you made any edits before you got an account, you might be interested in assigning those to your username.
If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills, try the Sandbox.
Click on the Edit button on a page, and look at how other editors did what they did.
You can sign your name using three tildes, like this: ~~~. If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Always sign comments on Talk pages, never sign Articles.
You might want to add yourself to the New User Log
If your first language isn't English, try Wikipedia:Contributing to articles outside your native language

Happy editing!

Please don't use Wikipedia as a place to promote your organisation. External links not directly relevant to articles will be removed.--nixie 09:29, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

GreenFacts

Stephanie, thanks for inserting the URL to the WHO/FAO diet and nutrition report. This is immensely useful in articles which otherwise suffer from a high urban legend ratio.

I was wondering if you couldn't put the GreenFacts summary in the same line as the WHO link. You may be right that for non-professionals the report may be too technical or dense, but it would avoid a lot of clutter if you could link the summaries in the way I've done it on obesity and cancer.

Are you planning to contribute original material to Wikipedia as well? JFW | T@lk 13:33, 19 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Jfdwolff, thanks for your message and for making those links more compact. I will take this suggestion into account in future edits. So far I've mainly made minor edits to texts, and added cross links between articles and to external scientific information relevant to the articles. In the future, I may be able to contribute more material. StephanieM 12:11, 25 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Conflict of Interest

Hi Stephanie! I saw that you have inserted links to the GreenFacts IPCC summary into several articles. Since you work for GreenFacts, this is consider a conflict of interest, and heavily frowned uppon. You might be better of just mentioning the availability on the talk pages and see if someone thinks them notable enough to include.--Stephan Schulz 14:07, 21 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Stephan! Thank you for your comment. I've always been transparent about my identity and the fact that I work for GreenFacts. In this case, I had just intended to make this new information available which had been prepared jointly with the help of IPCC scientists, but I did not mean to do this in an inappropriate way.

Invitation

I'd like to invite everyone to join the WikiProject R&B and Soul Music. We are currently on demand for new members, the project was dying, but with your help we can revive it and make it one of the best WikiProjects. Make me sure that you'll think about this and remember cooperative works can do amazing things. Regards Dfrr (talk) 05:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]
