Although some prefer welcoming newcomers with cookies, I find fruit to be a healthier alternative.

Hello, ArsheyaSagar, 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.

Notice

There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Venkat TL (talk) 17:16, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm DVdm. I noticed that you recently removed content from Magnetic flux without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. DVdm (talk) 19:08, 29 January 2022 (UTC)

Unexplained changes

Many of your edits have been reverted and some have introduced incorrect English, for example diff. Please take more care.

It is important that an edit summary is used to explain why changes are made. For example, why did this edit change "1997" to "1998"? Johnuniq (talk) 02:07, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

@ArsheyaSagar: You have resumed editing without replying so let me explain that I am an administrator who noticed the report at the ANI noticeboard. Editors must be willing and able to communicate. Why was "1997" changed to "1998"? Do you have any thoughts about my above example of incorrect English? Johnuniq (talk) 09:35, 30 January 2022 (UTC)

@Johnuniq Hi I am sorry for the late response. I am sorry for the wrong editing and it won't happen again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ArsheyaSagar (talk • contribs) 06:37, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

I was asking for a reason. It would be a serious matter if there were no reason. Johnuniq (talk) 08:05, 4 February 2022 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: Karna (February 8)

Your recent article submission has been rejected. If you have further questions, you can ask at the Articles for creation help desk or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help. The reason left by Dan arndt was: This submission is contrary to the purpose of Wikipedia. The comment the reviewer left was: Wikipedia is not for self-promotion

Dan arndt (talk) 07:01, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Hello, ArsheyaSagar! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Dan arndt (talk) 07:01, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Please do not attack other editors, as you did at User:ArsheyaSagar. Comment on content, not on contributors. Personal attacks damage the community and deter users. Please stay cool and keep this in mind while editing. Thank you. — DaxServer (t · c) 09:09, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Sorry, I have removed it

Please stop your disruptive editing.

• If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant noticeboards.
• If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

If you continue to disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Bharata (Ramayana), you may be blocked from editing. — DaxServer (t · c) 13:48, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you disrupt Wikipedia, as you did at Mahakavya. — DaxServer (t · c) 20:02, 10 February 2022 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Draft:Karna

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Draft:Karna, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, group, product, service, person, or point of view and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for more information.

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. — DaxServer (t · c) 09:47, 8 February 2022 (UTC)

Blocked as a sockpuppet

You have been blocked indefinitely from editing for abusing multiple accounts as a sockpuppet of User:Yashthakurkamail per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Yashthakurkamail. Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted. In addition, your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked.

If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then submit a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.  Girth Summit _(blether) 11:50, 26 March 2022 (UTC)
