Welcome to WP. I hope you enjoy editing. Kudos for engaging on talk when you have questions about editing. The most important advice I can give is sources a good read of the Identifying reliable sources guideline will greatly facilitate participation in the project. As you are already aware of talk pages you are a good step ahead, when making edits that may be controversial a mention of what you are doing on talk is of great use. It will also provide a forum for you to support your edits. Please have some patience with the community, unfortunately contention and strong points of view are sometimes not well and reasonably argued. The strongest arguments are based on policy and sources. You may want to take a look at some of the WikiProjects based on your area(s) of interest. I am active at WP:WikiProject Medicine and the WP:Fringe theories/Noticeboard. Feel free to ask me questions on my talk page. Best wishes and happy editing. - - MrBill3 (talk) 21:16, 24 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]
