I have removed the information that you restored to the "See also" sections of various pages. As [[WP:NOTSEEALSO]] says, "The links in the 'See also' section should be relevant, should reflect the links that would be present in a comprehensive article on the topic, and should be limited to a reasonable number." A long list of copy-and-pasted links to unrelated people is not appropriate, and most of the entries seem intended merely to disparage the article subjects because they are mediums (e.g., the first entry in the lists you restored is "[[Ann O'Delia Diss Debar]] ('One of the most extraordinary fake mediums... the world has ever known' -Houdini)", despite her having no relevance to any of the articles I edited). Criticism of those people and their false claims of psychic ability should be done in the main article body and supported by reliable sources, especially since most of the articles I edited were [[WP:BLP]]s. If you think particular links should be restored to the "See also" sections, I would not have any objection if they are relevant to the particular article. We can also discuss the issues on any of the articles' individual talk pages, or a more centralized discussion somewhere if you want. Take care, and happy holidays. – [[User:Wallyfromdilbert|wallyfromdilbert]] ([[User talk:Wallyfromdilbert|talk]]) 01:27, 26 December 2019 (UTC) |
Revision as of 01:27, 26 December 2019
Welcome to The Wikipedia Adventure!
- Hi CatCafe! We're so happy you wanted to play to learn, as a friendly and fun way to get into our community and mission. I think these links might be helpful to you as you get started.

A belated welcome!
Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, CatCafe. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{help me}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! – Aranya (talk) 05:30, 19 December 2019 (UTC)
