Hello, Michael C. Barnette, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions.
I noticed that one of the first articles you edited was Michael C. Barnette, which appears to be dealing with a topic with which you may have a conflict of interest. In other words, you may find it difficult to write about that topic in a neutral and objective way, because you are the subject of that article. Your recent contributions may have already been undone for this very reason. However, I've now made the internal link ("wikilink") to SS Cotopaxi for you.
To reduce the chances of your contributions being undone, you might like to draft your contributions before submission, and then ask me or another editor to proofread it. See our help page on userspace drafts for more details.
Here are some pages that you might find helpful:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a

I am not sure how this works RexxS and don't have the time to become fluent in it. I did not start my own wiki page. But I saw some items that could be corrected or updated. That is not a conflict of interest. The Cotopaxi page has not been updated. I tried to provide correct information on the wreck's identification to rebut all the fictional stories floating around. As a recognized expert, I think I am credible in this area.
