[edit]
Hello, I'm Materialscientist. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Imran Riaz Khan, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Materialscientist (talk) 23:08, 15 December 2023 (UTC)

[edit]Hello. Regarding this recent edit of yours, I noticed you attempted to add items directly to a category page.
In Wikipedia, the category must be added to the articles, not the other way around. Please see Wikipedia:FAQ/Categorization#How do I add an article to a category? For newer editors, it's understandably a counter-intuitive system.
Category pages are not intended to be exhaustive lists. They are navigation aids; merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.
To categorize an article, first make sure it actually belongs to the category. Then, go to the article and add the category at the bottom of the page. Once published (saved) the blue-linked name of the article will automatically appear on the category page. To remove an article from appearing on a category page, edit the article and remove the category. For instructions on how to do all this using VisualEditor, see Help:VisualEditor § Editing categories. For further detailed information, see Help:Category and Wikipedia:Categorization.
Let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. Cheers! --DB1729talk 14:45, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
