Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, Monarchrob1, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Darylgolden! You might think that Wikipedia is near completion and doesn't need your help, but that's not true! Wikipedia may seem to be running smoothly on the surface, but we still have many backlogs and problems that need attention, and I would like to thank you so much for helping out. Here are some pages to guide you!

WP:Dead links

Regarding edits like this edit you made, which I reverted, see what WP:Dead links states; you should not delete a reference solely because it is a dead link. There are often ways of recovering or replacing the reference. If there are absolutely no ways to fix the matter, then perhaps it is okay to remove the dead link. I see that, from looking at your contributions, you've been removing references from articles solely because they are dead links. You need to stop doing that.

WP:Dead links #2

The same as the above. You also removed a 2nd valid citation, I added a few days ago. I mean no big deal, but plz have the courtesy to explain your edits so I don't need to guess what your motivation has been. As I see now, it was obviously because of the other citation that gave you a 404-Error. That's why I added a template a few days ago and added another citation.
