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.

[edit]
Hello, I'm Walter Görlitz. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Biblical Magi, 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. If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. I am glad to see that you are discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Sator Square are for discussion related to improving the article in specific ways based on reliable sources and the project policies and guidelines, not for general discussion about the topic or unrelated topics, or statements based on your thoughts or feelings. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

Please do not add original research or novel syntheses of published material to articles as you apparently did to Imiaslavie. Please cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. Thank you. Doug Weller talk 16:21, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
Original research, sources
[edit]If you wish to add similar concepts to an article, you must base your edits on reliable sources discussing them as similar concepts. Sources generally need to discuss the subject of the article. You can never use our articles as sources. Please read WP:NOR, WP:VERIFY and WP:RS. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 16:23, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
