Welcome![edit]

Hello, Dana-11223, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Brianda and I work with Wiki Education; 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 check out the student training library, 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.

Adding wikilinks[edit]

Hi and welcome! I hope you don't mind some tips on adding wiki-links.

Wikilinks usually only need to be added to the first occurrence of a term: it's not necessary to link a term whenever it occurs.
Wikilinks should be relevant to the sense in which a word is being used. If "Khalili" is being used to refer to the person Nasser Khalili, it's wrong to link it to the Khalili Collections.
Wikilinks should go to a page which has a clear, unambiguous topic. Note that at the top of Khalili it says it's a disambiguation page with links to different uses of that word. We shouldn't wiki-link to disambiguation pages.

Finally, if you want to make test edits to explore how to make links and citations, don't do it in an article. Your own sandbox is there for you to make test edits in. All the best with your assignment: you're studying a fascinating topic! MartinPoulter (talk) 15:58, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
