Hello. Regarding this recent edit of yours [1], I noticed you attempted to add an item directly to a category page.

In Wikipedia, we do not add articles to a category by editing the category page, we add them by editing the individual articles' pages and linking the category from there. 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. In fact, they are not really lists at all, in the sense they only display subjects with Wikipedia pages. They are navigation aids; merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.

To categorize a page, first make sure the page actually belongs to the category. Then, go to the page you wish to categorize and add the category at the bottom of the page with the other categories. For instructions on how to do 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 19:33, 14 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I've just reverted you for the same reason pointed above. Please, do take some time to read the links from that post. Isabelle Belato 🏳‍🌈 19:00, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Tommi1986. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sanjay Jha (businessman), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Tommi1986 let's talk! 18:41, 15 October 2022 (UTC)Reply
