Hi fellow PJHC user!
Hello, Reilly! My name is Gillian and I am in the 10:50 section of PJHC. I chose to introduce myself to you because I really like what you said about aspiring "to provide tangible solutions that create effective change." I too am interested in creating change through my future profession, and I'm especially interested in non-profits. I would love to find a topic on which to expand through wikipedia contribution that relates to social business and NGOs or education. Are you interested in finding something similar to work on? Do you have any suggestions? Gilperkins (talk) 01:46, 4 September 2015 (UTC)Gilperkins

Hi there! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to Zimbabwe does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
- User contributions
- Recent changes
- Watchlists
- Revision differences
- IRC channels
- Related changes
- New pages list and
- Article editing history
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Eeekster (talk) 00:13, 3 November 2015 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for November 21
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Education in Zimbabwe, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Race. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Seeking Advice on "Sex Education in India"
Hey Reilly - my name is Madhuri Venkateswar and I am working on editing the "Sex Education in India" article. As a fellow Wikipedian (and Rice student) who worked on "Family Planning in India", I was wondering if you had any advice or could impart some best practices in finding citations and sources regarding this topic, as well as how to outline it. Thank you!! Venkam (talk) 07:25, 22 September 2016 (UTC)
