To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

Please remember to:

• Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
• Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
  

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Marking edits as minor

Hi Citizenpane2! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia — it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.

Edit Doesn't contain reliable source

Hello, I'm Md Maruf Parvez. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hi @Citizenpane2: I had to fix that reference to changed. Page on archive.org are based on the page number of the document, not on the page number of the application. Don't remove content from a article unless you have a reference that proves its false. It states it in a number of places that he was Catholic and right-wing. Lastly don't put bareurls in an article that no bareurl. Have a look at WP:REFB, if you don't know how do do full references. Putting in a bareurl in a articles reduces its quality. scope_creep^Talk 18:27, 10 June 2022 (UTC)

Thanks so much for your message. I'm still learning to figure out how to add citations; in my preview, I thought that there was a full citation to a recent article in Die Zeit. I found no reference that Engelsing was "right wing". In fact, he was working for members of the Red Orchestra during WWII and was accused of resurrecting them postwar, which is why he was denied permanent residence in the US.
