Welcome!

Hello, KoalaKB, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Article issues

Hi KoalaKB. I removed your additions to the wildlife biologist article. Adding a long section about job qualifications for wildlife biologist positions in one agency in one country isn't really appropriate for an international encyclopaedia. In addition, because you copied the text directly from your source, it triggered the plagiarism detector.

For the purposes of your assignment, it's likely to be considered plagiarism. While copying text from a US federal government site doesn't infringe copyright (because the US federal government does not assert copyright), it's still important to clearly tag this sort of copying from another site like that.
