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.

Minor edit

Hi, thanks for your helpful edits to Low emission buses in New York City - I've extended this edit to similar articles in London and Moscow.

However, please only tick the minor edit when there's a superficial difference – edits you've recently marked as minor have not been so. "A good rule of thumb is that edits consisting solely of spelling corrections, formatting changes, or rearrangement of text without modification of the content should be flagged as minor edits". Thanks!

I am somewhat new to editing wikipedia and didn't know that. Thank you so much for informing me. I'll keep it in mind next time. SashankInAnitquity (talk) 03:34, 29 December 2025 (UTC)
No worries - have a great day :D Turini2 (talk) 09:07, 29 December 2025 (UTC)

There was no vandalism. Aside from the ALS having its own article already. Your edits had too much similar tone to how news outlets write their pages.

Specifically:

"He suddenly became weak. He was complaining of difficulty breathing, then straight to [passing away], but he had long been telling stories that what would happen to him was inevitable because of his disability" said Philippine Para chess team head coach James Infiesto in an interview.

I agree with the other editor that this falls under WP:NOTNEWS, in the longer term we do not need dramatized account of the subject's last days. And how quotes are discouraged when things can be surmised by prose if ever neeeded. Hariboneagle927 (talk) 07:32, 24 February 2026 (UTC)

Oh im sorry I wasnt aware of what WP:NOTNEWS meant nor of any of the other tonal things you mentioned. Im still somewhat bad at editing. I hope it wasnt too much trouble. Feel free to revert my edits if you havent already. Sorry and thank you for informing :) Ill keep these things in mind for future edits. SashankInAnitquity (talk) 12:24, 24 February 2026 (UTC)
