Welcome!
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Simplified Manual of Style
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 a named 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 using a named account, your IP address (184.186.4.209) is used to identify you instead.
I hope that you, as a new Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. 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! –Gladamastalk 00:14, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

editYou may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia. Stop spamming pages with a non-existent category, and don't place an inappropriate category on pages that don't apply to it.--Mr Fink (talk) 01:25, 5 October 2017 (UTC)
This is your only warning; if you vandalize Wikipedia again, as you did at Dire wolf, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. All of your edits on Wikipedia appear to constitute Subtle Vandalism. Vandalism is prohibited. Vandalism is any addition, removal, or change of content, in a deliberate attempt to damage Wikipedia. Examples of typical vandalism are adding irrelevant obscenities and crude humor to a page, illegitimately blanking pages, and inserting obvious nonsense into a page.

editHello. 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)
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:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. You can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! BilCat (talk) 18:07, 21 April 2018 (UTC)

The plural of cannon
edit... is cannon. Thanks. - BilCat (talk) 21:05, 25 August 2018 (UTC)
- but "cannons" is a real word, and makes more sense, doesn't everybody call them "cannons" in the pleural sense? I do.184.186.4.209 (talk) 21:29, 25 August 2018 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Oshwah. I noticed that you made a change to an article, M29 Weasel, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. ~Oshwah~(talk) (contribs) 02:50, 30 August 2018 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Skull Island, 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. Also please see WP:IPCV. DonIago (talk) 14:05, 1 November 2018 (UTC)

Adding categories to species name redirect pages.
editHi. I've noticed that you have a habit of adding categories to redirect pages where the destination article already has the category (for example as you have recently done with various Psittacosaurus species). Myself and others have been having to revert these for quite a while now, so I just thought I'd bring up with you that adding article categories is usually unnecessary, unless the redirect page deserves itself to be in a category that it does not make sense for the destination page to be in. For example, since Psittacosaurus is already in the ceratopsians category, putting all of the individual species redirect pages into the category as well just creates excess clutter. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Categorizing_redirects for a thorough explanation. Zigongosaurus1138 (talk) 19:13, 8 February 2019 (UTC)

editIt would appear you have insufficient knowledge of WWII aircraft development to be able to identify aircraft that are variants of other aircraft. It would be best if you refrained from making any further such uneducated edits. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 09:58, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at American alligator. Can you please stop inappropriately categorizing animals as "maneaters" simply because they've attacked humans?--Mr Fink (talk) 22:33, 22 May 2019 (UTC)

editPlease do not add or change content, as you did at Consolidated PBY Catalina, 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. BilCat (talk) 21:53, 15 April 2020 (UTC)

editHello, I'm RandomCanadian. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Cueva de Villa Luz, 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. RandomCanadian (talk / contribs) 00:15, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
