== Hello from ZedZeppelin ==

Hello GibsOfficial, I wanted to introduce myself and welcome you to Wikipedia! I hope you have an ''awesome'' day! :) [[User:ZedZeppelin|ZedZeppelin]] ([[User talk:ZedZeppelin|talk]]) 19:16, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

== Wikipedia is not a reliable source for Wikipedia articles ==

Hello GibsOfficial, thank you for your contributions to improve Wikipedia articles. Just a quick tip though: Wikipedia articles cannot be used as references themselves, because Wikipedia is not a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] (for example: anyone could vandalize or manipulate Wikipedia content at any time, or add false info). You can however re-use reliable external sources from other Wikipedia articles, after double-checking that they really verify the new content (see [[email privacy]], where I tweaked your previous edit). Hope this info is helpful. Best regards. [[User:GermanJoe|GermanJoe]] ([[User talk:GermanJoe|talk]]) 11:11, 15 March 2018 (UTC)

==Disambiguation link notification for April 19==

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited [[Privacy in education]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Hacking]] ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Privacy_in_education check to confirm]&nbsp;|&nbsp;[//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Privacy_in_education?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are [[WP:INTDABLINK|usually incorrect]], since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].)</small>

Wikipedia is not a reliable source for Wikipedia articles

[edit]

Hello GibsOfficial, thank you for your contributions to improve Wikipedia articles. Just a quick tip though: Wikipedia articles cannot be used as references themselves, because Wikipedia is not a reliable source (for example: anyone could vandalize or manipulate Wikipedia content at any time, or add false info). You can however re-use reliable external sources from other Wikipedia articles, after double-checking that they really verify the new content (see email privacy, where I tweaked your previous edit).

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Privacy in education, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hacking (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
