Hello, Mozartbeethovenbrahms, 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.

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Emad Salem into 1993 World Trade Center bombing. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 00:30, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Important Notice

[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 the September 11 attacks. 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.

Fox News

[edit]

Fox News is not a reliable source for political topics. Please don't add it. Andrevan@ 03:34, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Fox News is not same as it was 20 years ago. Mozartbeethovenbrahms (talk) 04:21, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia feels the same way though. Andrevan@ 08:45, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If this is the case, delete every Fox News reference from wikipedia ASAP. Mozartbeethovenbrahms (talk) 08:54, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Also, the co-founder of wiki would disagree https://www.news.com.au/technology/online/internet/wikipedia-cofounder-says-site-is-now-propaganda-for-leftleaning-establishment/news-story/72c3c7a0c6aa3b6d86ae2c542258b28c Mozartbeethovenbrahms (talk) 09:12, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Mozartbeethovenbrahms. WP:RSP is a list of common sources are how reliable the community has decided they are. Fox is considered reliable in some circumstances, but not all and the other source you added (Counterpunch) is not considered reliable at all. Also noone cares what Singer says, he hasn't been involved with the project for years. - LCU ActivelyDisinterested transmissions °co-ords° 09:59, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hello again. I'm not going to revert you again, but I will say that adding a source that just reports what a unreliable source says doesn't make it reliable. It just looks like you're trying to find some run around to put particular wording in, rather than finding what reliable sources state. - LCU ActivelyDisinterested transmissions °co-ords° 11:01, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbQ7ylchvlg This is video of the news report. Not sure if this video can be considered a reliable source. But again, this is written under 9/11 conspiracy theories (Which are considered generally unreliable). Mozartbeethovenbrahms (talk) 12:42, 4 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
That's not how Wikipedia works. You need reliable sources and verifiability for everything. Challenged material will be removed. This youtube clip doesn't cut the mustard. Andrevan@ 17:58, 5 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The co-founder who is a fan of conspiracy theories, hardly a reliable source for Wikipedia. Doug Weller talk 11:24, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

July 2022

[edit]

Information icon Hi Mozartbeethovenbrahms! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at 9/11 conspiracy theories that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. In any case, it was clearly a major addition of text yet you marked it as minor. Best to never mark anything as minor. Doug Weller talk 11:26, 22 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

You continue to mark major disputed edits as minor in an area covered by discretionary sanctions

[edit]

Last chance. Doug Weller talk 17:44, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Mozartbeethovenbrahms News outlets did report that a van filled with explosives was stopped on the George Washington Bridge.The report was later denied. Neither arguing against or for this point. Mozartbeethovenbrahms (talk) 23:14, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Which is irrelevant to my warning. I'm not discussing content. Doug Weller talk 14:58, 5 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]


Article correction

[edit]

Could you be able to correct Harry Holmes’ testimony in the police interrogation section on Oswald article: the current words, “went downstairs where he encountered Baker” give the impression Oswald said the encounter took place at the second floor lunchroom but Holmes clarifies that Oswald was talking about encountering the officer at the vestibule on the first floor by the front entrance. Holmes describes two set of doors which were in the building vestibule (which were a front lobby between two set of doors). The paragraph could be rewritten to reflect Holmes’ testimony something like: “Oswald said he was at the first floor vestibule by the front entrance and wanted to see what the “commotion” was when he encountered an officer.” 62.254.8.217 (talk) 07:24, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution (second request)

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from CIA Kennedy assassination conspiracy theory into Lee Harvey Oswald.

Lee Harvey Oswald

[edit]

Hi there Mozartbeethovenbrahms, and thanks for your contributions. Could you please stop adding poorly sourced material to this article? Please instead discuss your proposals at Talk:Lee Harvey Oswald and gain consensus there before adding any more material. Thanks a lot. John (talk) 16:02, 15 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
