You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create an account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
If you edit without an account, your IP address (70.185.220.81) is used to identify you instead.
We hope that you choose to become a Wikipedian and create an account. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or ask your question and then place {{helpme}}
before the question on this page. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).
Happy editing! I dream of horses If you reply here, please ping me by adding {{Ping|I dream of horses}} to your message. (talk to me) (contributions) @ 17:56, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

editPlease stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Ridgeway Hill Viking burial pit. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. David J Johnson (talk) 21:01, 27 November 2015 (UTC)

editHi there! 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)
I noticed your recent edit to Herod the Great does not have an edit summary. 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:
- User contributions
- Recent changes
- Watchlists
- Revision differences
- IRC channels
- Related changes
- New pages list and
- Article editing history
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. Thanks! Doug Weller talk 11:19, 2 February 2016 (UTC)

Era changes
editPlease follow our guidelines at WP:ERA. I've reverted you as the article is a BCE article. Doug Weller talk 11:20, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
February 2016
editPlease stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy by adding commentary and your personal analysis into articles, as you did at Herod the Great, you may be blocked from editing. You were asked only a few days ago not to make era changes without a discussion following WP:ERA. Doug Weller talk 11:28, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Revolutionary Organization 17 November with this edit. Jim1138 (talk) 22:13, 8 February 2016 (UTC)

Recent edit to Jillian Becker
editHello, and thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the Jillian Becker article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

editI’ve removed your edit to Jeff Rense, because it appeared to be based on a personal point of view rather than on reliable sources. Please see Verifiability. Mathglot (talk) 04:01, 17 October 2019 (UTC)

Recent edit to Katharina von Zimmern
editHello, and thank you for your recent contribution. I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edit because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! CatcherStorm talk 12:03, 20 January 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 03:53, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Ludus Magnus, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Changing dates from AD to CE is not helpful since there's no easy way to be sure everything has been checked, and it's not a necessary change.

Contributions to James Bainham
editHello, I reverted your edit on James Bainham. Are you aware that you edited a direct quote? You tried to place 'heretical', but the true text of the book is 'constant and undaunting'. In addition to not violating Wikipedia's rules on a Neutral Point of View, please do not commit acts of vandalism like this. kr0n05931 (talk) 17:06, 28 May 2020 (UTC)
