Hello, GhulamIslam, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.



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?
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.

[edit]

This is a standard message to notify contributors about an administrative ruling in effect. It does not imply that there are any issues with your contributions to date.

You have shown interest in articles about living or recently deceased people, and edits relating to the subject (living or recently deceased) of such biographical articles. Due to past disruption in this topic area, a more stringent set of rules called discretionary sanctions is in effect. Any administrator may impose sanctions on editors who do not strictly follow Wikipedia's policies, or the page-specific restrictions, when making edits related to the topic.

To opt out of receiving messages like this one, place {{Ds/aware}} on your user talk page and specify in the template the topic areas that you would like to opt out of alerts about. For additional information, please see the guidance on discretionary sanctions and the Arbitration Committee's decision here. If you have any questions, or any doubts regarding what edits are appropriate, you are welcome to discuss them with me or any other editor.

Trump discussion

[edit]

Your proposal to add conspiracy theorist to the first sentence has been rejected by the group of editors there. There has been some interest in formulating an alternative, and I suggest you focus on that rather than repeating the new first sentence idea. Regardless of its merits, it will not be accepted at this time. FWIW, I rarely find that such labels are the best way to convey information in an encyclopedic style and a way that's useful to our readers. SPECIFICO talk 22:17, 8 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@SPECIFICO: OK, I thought most of the discussion above my last comment was regarding moving paragraphs and less on my proposal. "Conspiracy theorist" is included in the opening sentences of Majorie Taylor Green and Mike Lindell's articles and there hasn't been much response to my revised proposed lead yet (including a reference with multiple RS).

Information icon Hello, I'm Super Goku V. I noticed that you made a comment on the page article that didn't seem very civil, so it may have been removed. Wikipedia is built on collaboration, so it's one of our core principles to interact with one another in a polite and respectful manner. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I would recommend that you note that serious accusations require serious evidence and that no editor should accuse another of misconduct without evidence. --Super Goku V (talk) 03:03, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

WP:STATUSQUO

[edit]

Hello,

Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia for the happiness of many people around the world who are influenced by the United States,

Regarding the photo of President Trump, when the US presidential election topic was first opened, I hope that by keeping The WP:STATUSQUO, the original official photo of President Trump can be registered to help users who access Wikipedia. Examples: Replace the temporary random photo with the original photo to keep the WP:STATUSQUO, or provide comments related to the talk page for other users.
