Hello, Acerase, 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?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

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.

Polycomb recruitment in X chromosome inactivation

Hello,

I was reviewing your new article. I did a few formatting fixes. I have a few suggestions for improvement.

• You should write a short lede paragraph just to give some context.
• To make things clearer to the reader, you may want to give a longer description of the competing hypotheses, with possibly some background. These could be in separate paragraphs.
• You may also want to explain how exactly the experiments support the hypothesis they support.

Thank you for all your hard work. Happy editing! Happy Squirrel (talk) 16:51, 23 April 2016 (UTC)

Hi Acerase‬. I got a note from wp that you sent me an email. I just checked, and I didn't get one. I'm a newbie. I've probably done something wrong. In any case, I think I understand how I ended up associated with the x-chrom inact article. The wikiproject genetics had 2044 unassessed articles under it's domain a few weeks ago. I've been a major participant in trying to go through them and at least assess them to some degree so that we know what we've got to work on. I'm currently working my way down from Z - yes, I'm that unusual! So, I think that my assessment is what made you think I'm interested in it. I am, but there are soooooo many other things to do, that I doubt I'll get to it before time runs out for me, so feel free to improve it. DennisPietras (talk) 18:17, 24 January 2017 (UTC)

You can ask a quesion of a particular user by going to their user talk page (you can usually get to that by clicking the word "talk" after their signature), then clicking on "New section" at the top of the page, and filling in a header and your question, signed with ~~~~.

Hello, Acerase,

Thank you for creating Gian Gaetano Tartaglia.

I have tagged the page as having some issues to fix, as a part of our page curation process and note that:

Please convert in-line URLs to references

@Graeme Bartlett:

Dear Graeme,

the pic has been taken personally by prof. Tartaglia and we have rights to use it.

Best,

Acerase (talk) 13:39, 6 September 2024 (UTC)Andrea

@Graeme Bartlett:

In that case you have to legally prove these facts on Wikipedia. Also a free license has to be granted. Just because you have permission to put it on Wikipedia is not enough to host it here. Also you do not mention your connection to prof. Tartaglia, are you WP:PAID to write this article? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:45, 6 September 2024 (UTC)

I send you some answers re isssued reported. I hope these issues cacn be removed from the page:

This article may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. The specific problem is: template parameters, copyedit for clarity and organization, needs more links. (August 2024)

- This has been done, please let me know wheather this is OK

This article is an orphan, as no other articles link to it. Please introduce links to this page from related articles; try the Find link tool for suggestions. (August 2024)

- This is no longer correct. A link to another page as been created.

This article includes a list of references, related reading, or external links, but its sources remain unclear because it lacks inline citations. (August 2024)

-Re references, we mostly use inline referencing whenever possible.

This article uses bare URLs, which are uninformative and vulnerable to link rot. (August 2024)

-Bare URLs are needed for non specialized readers.

Best,
