To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.
Please remember to:
- Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the
button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp. - Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.

Disambiguation link notification for January 15
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Adlai Stevenson IV, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Adlai Stevenson. 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.)

Vincent Icke moved to draftspace
[edit]An article you recently created, Vincent Icke, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

List of cities in Africa by population
[edit]Hello,
Before coming to call me an Egyptian propagandist check the sources used. I simply relied on this site https://populationstat.com/africa/ https://populationstat.com/egypt/cairo. This page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinshasa also relied on this site for the number https://populationstat.com/democratic-republic-of-the-congo/kinshasa and this site also indicates that Kinshasa is second.

[edit]
Thank you for your contributions to Rickrolling, but we are trying to write an encyclopedia here, so please keep your edits factual and neutral. Our readers are looking for serious articles and will not find joke edits amusing. Remember that Wikipedia is a widely used reference tool, so we have to take what we do here seriously. If you'd like to experiment with editing, use your sandbox instead. Thank you. Idell (talk) 09:29, 16 July 2021 (UTC)

Your draft article, Draft:Vincent Icke
[edit]
Hello, Bruhpedia. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Vincent Icke".
In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. If you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.
Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. ✗plicit 11:24, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

- Okay good I made the new redirect then saw that I'd been mistaken about its suitability and couldn't figure out how to delete it. Bruhpedia (talk) 06:46, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
- No worries, in the future you can simply add {{db-self}} to the article's wikitext to request deletion of a page you created. You should probably do this for the draft if you don't plan on developing it. ––FormalDude (talk) 06:52, 12 October 2022 (UTC)

March 2023
[edit] Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia, and articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Trumpkin. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use your sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write.
—VeryRarelyStable 00:38, 29 March 2023 (UTC)
- That was a serious edit! Trumpkin is homophonous with Trump-kin, which is a phrase I've heard used to describe the Trump Family, not to mention Glenn Youngkin. This is a real problem! Bruhpedia (talk) 02:39, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
Introduction to contentious topics
[edit]
You have recently edited a page related to the Arab–Israeli conflict, a topic designated as contentious. This standard message is designed as an introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.
A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.
Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:
- adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
- comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
- follow editorial and behavioural best practice;
- comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
- refrain from gaming the system.
Additionally you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.
Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.
you violated the 1RR at Palestinian Bedouin. Kindly self revert. nableezy - 23:35, 12 November 2023 (UTC)
- Hi! Please clarify, as this doesn't seem to be the case. We each made one reversion. So I just made one. Bruhpedia (talk) 01:08, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- Your initial removal was a revert as well. nableezy - 02:21, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- That was a new edit, not a reversion to anything. Bruhpedia (talk) 03:09, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- A revert is any edit that reverses in part or in whole another edit. When you erase entire sentences you are reversing another edit. nableezy - 06:38, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
- That's incorrect. I wasn't reverting any one edit. I added and removed stuff, like any other edit. Not every deletion is a reversion. In any case, someone synthesized the edits, which was the optimal outcome. Bruhpedia (talk) 02:46, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
