Google Doodle is written in American English. Please see wp:ENGVAR for information and policy. The words wikt:honored and wikt:colored are proper American English. If you wish to check on a word's English variant, type "wikt:" followed by the word in the Wikipedia search bar. Please be careful! Cheers! Adakiko (talk) 05:16, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

editWelcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia. However, discussion pages are meant to be a record of a discussion; deleting or editing legitimate comments, as you did at wt:Arbitration Committee/Noticeboard, is considered bad practice, even if you meant well. Even making spelling and grammatical corrections in others' comments is generally frowned upon, as it tends to irritate the users whose comments you are correcting. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. That goes for your edits to my talk page and here. Also, please see wp:NOTFORUM regarding your edit to User talk:EnterpriseyBot/tasks. Adakiko (talk) 07:27, 10 August 2023 (UTC)

editHello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to User:Adakiko, did not appear to be constructive and have been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use your sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hello, I'm KylieTastic. I noticed that you recently removed content from Flower 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.

English variants
editWikipedia uses a number of English dialects or English variants. This includes Australian English, South African English, Indian English, Pakistani English, and even American English. For an incomplete list, see list of dialects of English. If an article is about a country-specific topic that uses English, the article should use that variant. Otherwise, the article should use the variant it was created in. Please see wp:Manual of Style#National varieties of English for policy, details, and suggestions. Use the links for more info. You can use Wiktionary to check spelling and dialects of many words. Just type "wikt:" followed by the word you wish to check such as wikt:honor or wikt:honour in the Wikipedia search bar. Thank you Adakiko (talk) 20:10, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

Try the "Show preview" button
editHi, KeerthanaManiN! I would strongly recommend that you use the preview button and carefully check your edit before you save your edit. You can also use the "Show changes" button to see if you have accidentally deleted content or made some other major mistake. With those, you can review your changes and hopefully find any errors you have made. That might help prevent others undoing your edits in the future! It shouldn't affect your editing. I have seen others make a test edit, save it, and repeat that many times. Using preview and fixing errors before saving can reduce the number of "Publish changes" / saves and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it.
. If you have something complex, you can copy text to your sandbox and edit to your hearts content. There should be a link to it at the top right of any Wikipedia page if you are logged in. Or, you can click the link here: User:KeerthanaManiN/sandbox.
Wikipedia can be a hard learning experience. Thank you for sticking with it! Have you read help:Introduction? It's a good way to learn how to edit. Best wishes! Adakiko (talk) 19:06, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
- Hi there! okay, thanks! KeerthanaManiN (talk) 15:15, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

May I suggest Articles for Creation?
editSee wp:Articles for creation (AfC). Using a draft article will give you more leeway and time to bring an article to Wikipedia policy requirements. It would be kept as a wp:draft such as draft:Avadh Behari (which is blank at the time of this edit). A page reviewer, when you make such a request, would check the article and either publish it or give you reasons why it is not ready. You could also create it in your sandbox: user:KeerthanaManiN/sandbox. There is usually a link to your sandbox at the top-right of any page while you are logged in. See: wp:About the sandbox. If you are not familiar with article creation, I would recommend AfC over your sandbox. Cheers Adakiko (talk) 18:40, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
