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

Hello, Sulsulemga, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

Thanks a lot 🙏 and sorry for my late reply! Sulsulemga (talk) 18:05, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply


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?
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 Adakiko. I noticed that in this edit to Karnataka Forum for Dignity, you removed content without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, the removed content has been restored. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Adakiko (talk) 07:57, 28 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, articles should not be moved without good reason. They should have a name that is both accurate and intuitive. Wikipedia has some guidelines in place to help with this. Generally, a page should only be moved to a new title if the current name doesn't follow these guidelines. Also, if a page move is being discussed, consensus needs to be reached before anybody moves the page. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. Chronikhiles (talk) 07:33, 29 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit(s) you made to Pramod Shetty and Dakshina Kannada, 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.

  Hi Sulsulemga! I noticed that you have reverted to restore your preferred version of an article several times. The impulse to undo an edit you disagree with is understandable, but I wanted to make sure you're aware that the edit warring policy disallows repeated reversions even if they are justifiable.

All editors are expected to discuss content disputes on article talk pages to try to reach consensus. If you are unable to agree, please use one of the dispute resolution options to seek input from others. Using this approach instead of reverting can help you avoid getting drawn into an edit war. Thank you. Zippybonzo | talk | contribs (she/they) 14:06, 17 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello, thanks for your message! It's happening since long ago and for a time being the page was protected by Administrators. The same editor is adding things without any proper sources. He/she is not at all understanding the standard of Wikipedia. I will bring this to the knowledge of the Administrators again and request them to protect the page.
Thanks and regards Sulsulemga (talk) 15:31, 17 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Nangeli. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be reverted.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continued disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Ratnahastin (talk) 07:19, 1 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Asking for a Citation is also considered Unconstructive edit?

edit
To declare something Fictional there has to be proper sources and I was asking for that only. Asking for a Citation is also considered Unconstructive edit? Didn't know this.

Mamta Sagar

edit

Hi @Sulsulemga, I've just noticed that you made three edits on the Mamta Sagar page, adding mention of an award she has won, together with a reference. This is appreciated, of course, but what I'd like to draw your attention to is the casual errors you made:

  • you misspelled the poet's name twice
  • you changed the name of the award
  • you changed the spelling of the awarding body's name
  • you made several minor grammatical and formatting errors

This is very sloppy, and it reflects poorly on the overall quality of the encyclopedia. Once again, while your edits are welcome, and without editors such as yourself, Wikipedia couldn't exist, it is also important to be conscientious and to do one's best to make sure the quality of one's work produces the best possible results. Thank you. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 15:03, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your words. It helps learning a lot ! I will take care of these things in the coming works. Thanks again! Sulsulemga (talk) 18:01, 26 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Bhimsen Joshi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ron. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
