Do you know edit

If you have any difficulty adding 500 words to Climate change in Nigeria or with the "do you know" (DYK) procedure contact me by making a new section at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Chidgk1 in the next couple of days - as I mentioned there is a 7 day deadline for DYK. I don't know if we will be able to find enough sources but I will try if you ask me on that link. Chidgk1 (talk) 18:44, 30 November 2020 (UTC)Reply

Question from Reyreidrazz (02:18, 1 December 2023) edit

How do I add links between different wikipedia articles, to link to a page for a specific term? --Reyreidrazz (talk) 02:18, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

This is really easy. Wikilinks that exist on Wikipedia are blue while the ones that do not exist are red.
Using visual mode, you can add a link to a Wikipedia page by highlighting the word and click the link icon( an icon on the edit bar that looks like an infinity icon).
Using Source mode, you can add [[ before the text, and add ]] after the text. Make sure to check on the preview page if it linked correctly.
You can read about Wikilinks here. I hope this was helpful. @Reyreidrazz Prithee P (talk) 10:16, 2 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Question from Renfieldaccusome (07:03, 3 January 2024) edit

Hi, I want to edit a page but it says "page protected from vandalism". And I can't edit the page even when I have registered for an account. What do I need to do to get around it? --Renfieldaccusome (talk) 07:03, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, @Renfieldaccusome
As a new editor with a registered account, you might not be able to edit all Wikipedia articles. This way, Wikipedia can ensure these articles are protected from vandalism.
If you are looking for articles to edit, try checking Category:Wikipedia articles needing copy edit. This is a list of articles needing correction and should be easy for new editors.@ Prithee P (talk) 10:54, 3 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
Another tip to note is that you should try to increase your edit counts - at least 10. A Wikipedia editor with at least 10 edit counts has access to edit more articles than an editor with zero edit counts.

@Louisxlkb Hello Prithee P (talk) 12:03, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia is an open space and comments and suggestions are highly welcomed.
Also, I tried searching for your comment in the talk page of the article but could not find it.
I also tried reading your edit history. I could not find any helpful leads. Kindly share more information if you want me to look into it.
Happy editing! Prithee P (talk) 12:08, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Thank you for your reply. It is a page that I cannot edit, it has one of those padlocks on it. I suppose I shoud try posting my comment again. Will it make any difference? I.e. is anyone able to edit the page likely to see my comment? 82.31.162.114 (talk) 14:25, 8 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Louisxlkb
A reminder: try to make sure you are logged in before editing any page on Wikipedia (talk page included). That way, any activity you do will be accounted for under your username rather than your IP address.
Regarding the article, you will need to have made at least 10 edit counts before you can edit or contribute certain Wikipedia pages.
My guess is that your comment didn't even get published. My reason is because I could not find it in your edit history. While it is great that you want to contribute to an already existing article, this article has been edited by countless editors over time and has been locked to prevent vandalism.
I would suggest you start your journey on Wikipedia by making little edits such as grammar, style, tone, or typos. The benefit of this is that you will get to understand how Wikipedia works as well as boost your edit count.
Let me know if you have any questions. Enjoy your weekend! Prithee P (talk) 15:00, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
Dear Prithee thank you for your reply. I do not really have time to be a regular contributor to Wikipedia, it was only that particular instance that I objected to. You seem to know what page I was referring to even though you say that you did not find it on my history. I sent in the comment before I set up an account. Louisxlkb (talk) 16:21, 9 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Louisxlkb
I am glad I was able to help. Contributing to Wikipedia does not have to be a full-time thing. You can make little changes, but here on Wikipedia, those are major, as Wikipedia would be nothing without volunteers like you and me.
I was unaware that it was before you set up your account. If you edited without an account, it was probably saved with your IP address, or it was not saved at all. Let me know which of these pages it is
  1. Neutral point of view
  2. Wikipedia:Neutral point of view
Meanwhile, do bear in mind that edits made by IP addresses especially fby irst -timers,are sometimes suspected fofvandalism.
