Why can't I edit some particular pages?

Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.

Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

How do I create an article?

See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.

How do I create citations?

1. Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
3. In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
5. Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
6. In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
7. If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:

==References==
{{Reflist}}

What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?

A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

Hi. Please remember when editing on Wikipedia to maintain a neutral point of view. Your recent edits to Arrow McLaren SP can be seen as not adhering to that policy, so I have reverted it. Thank you. -"Ghost of Dan Gurney" 12:41, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Calmer Waters. I wanted to let you know that I reverted one of your recent contributions—specifically this edit to List of baseball nicknames—because it did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse or the Help desk. Thanks. Calmer Waters 23:32, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Schazjmd. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Shams Charania, 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 referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Schazjmd (talk) 21:52, 15 December 2022 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Grammy Awards, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. ☾Loriendrew☽ ☏(ring-ring) 01:00, 18 January 2023 (UTC)

This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. Knock it off. BrickMaster02 (talk) 23:19, 11 February 2023 (UTC)

That was not a vandalization. Those edits regarding the Big City Greens Classic were 100% true, although there wasn't any sources. It was just announced during an NHL broadcast today, hence why there were no sources apart from a Tweet containing video of the announcement of the Big City Greens Classic. I want this to be reversed, albeit with revised information that the Big City Greens Classic is a simulcast with AR graphics. And maybe a source once that becomes available. IntMaMis (talk) 01:59, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Well, when a reliable source does come out (if this is true), then I will add it back. BrickMaster02 (talk) 02:40, 12 February 2023 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Lose Control (Missy Elliott song), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Ss112 17:05, 22 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello, I'm 2NumForIce. I noticed that in this edit to FC Shakhtyor Soligorsk, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 2NumForIce (^speak|_edits) 01:15, 12 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi IntMaMis! 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. Raladic (talk) 23:40, 2 October 2023 (UTC)

Please stop doing this @IntMaMis. glman (talk) 01:22, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
