Welcome
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
Someone using this IP address, 178.120.20.150, made test edits on the page History of Scotland which have been reverted or removed. If you did this, please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to do. If 178.120.20.150 is a shared IP address and you did not do this, you may wish to consider getting a username to avoid confusion with other editors and further irrelevant notices.
Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Tips on starting your first article
- Help pages • Tips
- Tutorial
Here are some other hints and tips:
- I recommend that you get a username. You do not have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
- When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.
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 type {{helpme}}
here on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Mutt Lunker (talk) 09:39, 5 May 2020 (UTC)
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

editPlease stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to add defamatory content, as you did at Yoko Ono, you may be blocked from editing. MANdARAX • XAЯAbИAM 07:22, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Yoko Ono. Materialscientist (talk) 07:37, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
