Welcome!
editHello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.
Here are some links to pages you may find useful:
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- Tutorial
- How to edit a page and How to develop articles
- Simplified Manual of Style
You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:
- Create new pages and rename pages
- Edit semi-protected pages
- Upload images
- Have your own watchlist, which shows when articles you are interested in have changed
Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a certain number of days and made a certain number of edits.
If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (198.176.83.34) is used to identify you instead.
I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).
Happy editing! Randykitty (talk) 12:52, 30 July 2018 (UTC)

editHello, I'm Asartea. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Indispensable Strait have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks. Asartea Talk | Contribs 15:09, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
- If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.
- @Asartea: So what you're saying is that the strait was literally unknown to all human beings until Wilkinson came along. Nice Western bias you're exhibiting there. 198.176.83.34 (talk) 15:10, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
- No no one is saying that, the reason I reverted your edits was because they didn't make sense. Your added text was The strait was discovered to Europeans by which isn't a sentence in English. Asartea Talk | Contribs 15:14, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
- @Asartea: So fix my shoddy grammar then. You're using revert inappropriately, and you're especially inappropriately leaving warnings. I can see that you're new around here; please stop doing that until you've gotten guidance on what "non-constructive editing" is. In the meantime, I'm going to rewrite the text you removed. 198.176.83.34 (talk) 15:28, 21 September 2020 (UTC)

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address. |
