Welcome!
Hello Mersenne56, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
At Wikipedia, new Users do not automatically receive a welcome; not even a machine-generated welcome. Welcome messages come from other Users. They are personal and genuine. They contain an offer of assistance if such assistance is ever desired.
I suggest to everyone I welcome that they may find some of the following helpful — there’s nothing personal in my suggestion and you may not need any of them:
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place ((helpme))

Hi Mersenne. In this edit you changed some British spelling to American spelling without leaving an Edit summary to explain why you made the changes. Wikipedia accepts both British English and American English, subject only to the desire for consistency within an article. See MOS:ENGVAR.
A small number of articles have such strong ties to a particular English-speaking nation that they should use the (formal, not colloquial) English of that nation. See MOS:TIES. These articles have a banner near the top of their Talk page declaring the national variety of English that should be used throughout that article. For example:
The great majority of articles in Wikipedia have no such banner on their Talk pages. For these articles, it is acceptable to change the spelling of words to achieve consistency within the article, but otherwise the existing spelling should be retained. See MOS:RETAIN.
If the spelling of a word is being changed from one national variety to another to achieve consistency within an article it is vital that a comment to this effect is included in the Edit summary; otherwise it looks like nothing more than a violation of the principle explained at MOS:RETAIN. Please don’t change British spelling to American spelling except in accordance with MOS:RETAIN, and remember to leave an explanatory Edit summary. Many thanks. Dolphin (t) 13:05, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
Thanks for your edits on Differential equation. The resulting section "Applications" was essentially a long list, which may be useful for navigation, but could be boring for most users. Moreover, the manual of style discourages including such lists in articles, as standard prose is better for an encyclopedic purpose. Therefore, I have moved this list into a new WP:list article named List of named differential equations. You are credited of your edits by the edit summary that asserted that this new article results from a split (and thus that one can consult your edits on the history of Differential equation). Again, thanks for your valuable contributions. D.Lazard (talk) 11:00, 9 August 2019 (UTC)
