User talk:Louisianajones1978

Hello Louisianajones1978! Welcome to Wikivoyage.

To help get you started contributing, we've created a tips for new contributors page, full of helpful links about policies and guidelines and style, as well as some important information on copyleft and basic stuff like how to edit a page.

If you are a Wikipedian then you may notice some differences in policies and the style of our articles. These include:
 * NPOV &rarr; be fair (not quite the same thing!)
 * be bold &rarr; plunge forward
 * Village pump &rarr; travellers' pub
 * External links &rarr; We do not use a separate external links section, but incorporate primary links only into the text itself.
 * sandbox &rarr; graffiti wall
 * stub tagging &rarr; Article status

It may also be very useful for you to check out Welcome, Wikipedians. If you need help, take a look at Help, or else post a message in the travellers' pub or on my talk page. Thanks for contributing!

Thanks for starting a topic on Mexican American history, but it really isn't usually a good idea to copy and paste verbatim from Wikipedia, instead of summarizing and paraphrasing, though I appreciate that you duly credited your sources. In particular, leaving footnote numbers, when we don't use footnotes on Wikivoyage and they don't point to anything from here, is a red flag. So please edit the text appropriately for Tone and style. We'll be happy to help you do that once you start, and thanks again.

All the best,
