Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:

  Do maintain a neutral point of view
  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest

If you need further help, you can:
  Ask a question

  Get help at the Teahouse
or even:

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates
  Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
  Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

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.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Thank you! I've already made my first major mistake. I tried to create Nemo Mettler as a redirect to Nemo (rapper), but I misunderstood the interface, and instead made Draft:Redirection_to_Nemo_(rapper). I am an idiot! PlusPeter (talk) 14:09, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A tag has been placed on Draft:Redirection to Nemo (rapper) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

accidental creation of draft by another user - JoBo GamerYT (talk) 14:07, 26 March 2024 (UTC)

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

Thank you! I am so sorry! I tried to make Nemo Mettler redirect to Nemo (rapper). When I was trying to make that page, I clicked the “Article wizard”. And it wanted me to name my draft. So I wrote what I thought was a reply to that question.
That was obviously the wrong way to go. Thank you for fixing my mess! PlusPeter (talk) 14:13, 26 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
