User:Headbomb/Create an article/Non-registered
Welcome to Wikipedia, the encyclopedia anyone can edit! Because you do not have an account, you cannot yet create articles directly in the encyclopedia. You must first register an account and gain experience as a Wikipedia editor.
Once you have a registered an account, the following pages will help you gain this experience
- Help:Getting started, which has several tutorials and primers about Wikipedia conventions and policies
- Help:How to edit, which explains how exactly to edit the encyclopedia
- Wikipedia:Sandbox, a page where you can freely experiment without having to worry about breaking anything
After you have created an account, you will be able to create an article through the Article wizard, which will guide you through the process, and explain basic concepts like notability, verifiability, and what reliable sources are. At the end of the process, your article will be created as a draft, and experienced editors will review it. Be aware that the reviewing process currently has a 2+ months backlog, with 2,439 pending submissions waiting for review.
