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.

Word choice

[edit]

Hi. Thanks for your additions to the bottled water article. I noticed that you wrote

Be careful with terms like "recently". Wikipedia articles don't have publication dates, so there's no way to judge how long a relative term like "recently" was added. In addition, the source you used was from February 2008, so it was published more than 13 years old, and given the timeline of academic publishing, it was probably based on research done at least a year earlier, maybe several years earlier.
