Welcome to Wikipedia, Lbellows! I am Cirt and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. Thank you for your contributions. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia!

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

Hi Lbellows,
Thanks for being part of the Wikipedia Public Policy Initiative! I'm LiAnna Davis, the communications associate for the Initiative, and I wanted to let you know that we have a Facebook page, facebook.com/WikipediaOnCampus designed to keep students like you up to date on the latest news, events, photos, videos, and hints to help you edit. If you're on Facebook, please check it out!
Happy editing! -- Ldavis (Public Policy) (talk) 22:00, 23 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi Laura -- nice to meet you; sure, I'll be glad to help. Please feel free to ask any questions at my talk page. If you can tell me which articles you are considering working on I'll take a look, and maybe we can talk about what could be done to improve them. I looked at your recent edits and saw your note at Talk:Education in the United States; is that a page you plan to improve? I look forward to working with you!

Hi Lbellows! My name is Evangeline and I'm the online coordinator for the Urban Economic Development class. I was looking through your draft and it looks quite good. I'm glad to see you using the wiki-table. It's also good to see you using references.
However, I noticed a slight problem in them. If you scroll down to the 'References' section, you'll see an error message that resulted from failure to use the |title= parameter. The title parameter is basically for the title of the article cited as a reference.
A title is needed so it'll be great if you can put in |title= after the |url= parameter. If you are having trouble with it or have any questions, please feel free to message me or one of the online ambassadors. Cheers, Bejinhan talks 07:38, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
Just a quick note to saw that you've done a great job on the Pathways out of Poverty article. I did a little formatting clean up, but there wasn't much to do -- you've got good data in there, well organized, with good sourcing. Very nice work.
