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.

Hello, I'm Mako001. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Jagadguru, but you didn't provide a source. I’ve removed it for now, but if you’d like to include a citation to a reliable source and re-add it, please do so! If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Mako001 (C)  (T)  🇺🇦 11:44, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi Mako001 - I have not added or removed any names from the list of Jagadgurus. I have merely created a new sub-section with the list of all 5 Jagadguru names so that it avoids confusion. In the current page - there is no clear mention of who are the 5 Jagadgurus. I hope this clarifies. Sgrao1 (talk) 11:50, 14 December 2022 (UTC)

Vishakha Tripathi moved to draftspace

Thanks for your contributions to Vishakha Tripathi. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Youknow? (talk) 08:33, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I had created the page keeping in the mind the notability guidelines. The person in question is the President of a non-profit organization (Jagadguru Kripalu Parishat) that already has a page on Wikipedia. On her own merit, she has won several awards and accolades - all of them have been reported in mainstream media (references have been provided). As such, there are various references to her in several published pages on Wikipedia, so it is imperative to create a stand-alone page for her to inform the reader about the background and achievements of this individual.

Would appreciate if you can help me understand why you believe the page does not meet the guidelines and needs more work before publishing. Happy to discuss further. Sgrao1 (talk) 09:12, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Sgrao1, Thank you for your contributions! I don't think your article passes WP:GNG, but if you still think so, you can go through AFC. Cheers and Happy editing! Thanks. Youknow? (talk) 12:56, 12 August 2024 (UTC)
