I appreciate your enthusiasm and determination to keep contributing to Wikipedia. It can be tough to keep going when you make mistakes and they're pointed out to you. I can imagine it must be hard feeling that your actions are closely scrutinised by others, although it's worth remembering that people are doing this because you tend to contribute in high-impact areas of the wiki. People want to see you succeed as an editor just as much as they want to uphold Wikipedia's policies. My advice would be to always approach things cautiously – I stop and re-read the policies and guidelines whenever I'm involved in something complex; there's no rush, and it's always useful to listen to what others think about something. Sometimes I have to accept that I'm simply out of my depth in an area and need more time and experience before I can fully participate in it – I wouldn't be qualified to jump into an arbitrator's role at [[WP:ARBCOM]] tomorrow! Most importantly, keep up your enthusiasm. That's it really, I just wanted to remind you that you being here is appreciated.

A message from Ed6767 about RedWarn
Hello RedWarn tester! I hate to reitterate, but thank you so much for being willing to test RedWarn, I really appreciate it.
In the past few updates, I have added AIV (admin) reporting, a preferences panel, themes, customisation options and made many, many bug fixes and added many features based on your suggestions and feedback.
Unfortunately, recently feedback has run dry.
Even if you do not use RedWarn at the moment, or you do (tysm), I would greatly appreciate feedback of any kind. While I go round Twinkle users, sounding like that broadband salesperson in the mall that nobody ever wants to speak to, I'd like some updated feedback from recent and current users.
Any sort of feedback below would be greately appreciated!
- Your first impressions when you tried RedWarn?
- How have you used RedWarn as time has gone on?
- Would you value customisation features, such as macros or shortcuts, such as adding your own quick revert reasons so the tool can fit your exact editing practices?
- Any suggestions for how I could promote the tool to a wider audience?
- Would you appreciate a more developed and thorough user guide?
- Any theme suggestions?
- Anything you'd like changing?
- Something you've always wanted to see in an anti-vandal tool? (I might add it!)
- RedWarn app?
- A way to introduce Recent Changes patrol to new users to make using RedWarn or other tools less daunting?
- Any bugs, gripes, or things that just really annoy you about RedWarn?

[[User_talk:Ed6767/redwarn|
]]My goal is to create the most user friendly moderation tool, and that's why I need your feedback to help make this truely the most favorable anti-vandal tool. While we will never elliminate vandalism on this site, we can get closer to fighting it quickly and easily.
Many thanks for your continued support. Ed6767 (talk) 00:17, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
If you do not wish to get these feedback reminders, let me know on my talk page.
A barnstar for you!

Notability
So here's what I do: I create a draft in my user space. I start collecting sources and writing the article. Only after I've proven to myself that a subject is notable do I move it to article space. You can see at User:Valereee#To_Do how many articles I've started that have waited for YEARS while I try to find sources to prove them notable. YEARS. And there are probably fifty such drafts awaiting that. Start the drafts. Don't move them to article space until you're pretty darn sure you've got notability. —valereee (talk) 02:42, 6 March 2021 (UTC)
- Got it. That is actually really good advice. I will take that to heart. Thank you so much! Elijahandskip (talk) 02:44, 6 March 2021 (UTC)

Looking for somewhere to start? Here are a few suggestions.
- You can check out topics in our scope on the home page.
