New editors were more successful with this new tool.

The New topic tool helps editors create new ==Sections== on discussion pages. New editors are more successful with this new tool. You can read the report. Soon, the Editing team will offer this to all editors at most WMF-hosted wikis. You can join the discussion about this tool for the English Wikipedia is at Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)#Enabling the New Topic Tool by default. You will be able to turn it off in the tool or at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-editing-discussion.

The Editing team plans to change the appearance of talk pages. These are separate from the changes made by the mw:Desktop improvements project and will appear in both Vector 2010 and Vector 2022. The goal is to add some information and make discussions look visibly different from encyclopedia articles. You can see some ideas at Wikipedia talk:Talk pages project#Prototype Ready for Feedback.

Question from Jimmiemach on User:Jimmiemach/sandbox (19:17, 6 June 2022)

Hello, I am James McLeaster and my user name is Jimmiemach. I have been attempting to write a page with the title Olivetti USA. I have been able to get into it and edit it, but today I seem to be having trouble. Anything you can do to help me look like I have some intelligence will help. I am an 85-year-old Olivetti typewriter salesman. --Jimmiemach (talk) 19:17, 6 June 2022 (UTC)

Hi, unfortunately I cannot help you to make you look like you have some intelligence. You will need to justify your own edits. Signed, Pichemist ( Contribs | Talk ) 14:57, 7 June 2022 (UTC)

Question from NYCedits123 (14:30, 22 June 2022)

Hello there, Hope you are doing well!!! This is an exciting feature. I used to have an account and edit often on Wikipedia, couldnt recall my login etc, so just made this account, Some things have changed and I wanted to ask about creating new articles and how long do you think it would take me to start editing again the lighter loads to get to that stage. ? All the best, have a good day --NYCedits123 (talk) 14:30, 22 June 2022 (UTC)

As there is no fixed time, it's probably time to start thinking about new articles when you feel confident with the guidelines and policies as well as you have sufficient experience. Signed, Pichemist ( Contribs | Talk ) 15:12, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
