Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Transformers2000. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
- Introduction
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Help pages
- How to write a great article
- Editor's index to Wikipedia
Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Wikipedia:Questions, or place {{help me}} on your talk page and ask your question there.
Again, welcome! Greyjoy talk 11:44, 7 August 2019 (UTC)
These are important!!
[edit]To avoid annoying your fellow editors, please start to do things properly:
- 1. Put your signature at the end of a sentence, not on the next line.
- 2. Do not put a blank space between the beginning of a new line and your signature.
- 3. Do not put every sentence you write on a new line. Combine sentences into paragraphs. When you change the subject, leave a blank line and start a new paragraph.
- 4. When responding to someone else's comment, indent your comment one tab more than the comment you're replying to. Tabs are made by using colons (:), If the comment you're replying to has two colons (::) at the bgeinning, then yours should have three colons (:::). DO NOT START EVERY COMMENT AT THE EDGE oF tHE PAGE WITHOUT INDENTING, it makes the dialogue very hard to read.
- 5. Read and understand WP:Reliable sources
- 6. Information added to article without a supporting citation from a reliable source is subject to being removed at any time.
- 7 You are responsible for finding the citations needed for material you want to add to an article, nobody else.
- 8 For about the 14th time: WIKIPEDIA IS NOT A RELIABLE SOURCE. You cannot cite a Wikipedia article to support facts, they will be rejected every time.
We have a policy here, it's called WP:CIR and it means "Competency is required", which means that if you can't learn these simple rules -- and the others by which Wikipedia runs -- you could be blocked from editing. Now, you're a new editor, so a lot of leeway is being given to you, because we all know that Wikipedia has a steep learning curve, but that leeway will not last forever. So, please, if you want to continue editing here, learn the ropes and be a good citizen of our community.
If you have questions, the place to go is WP:TEAHOUSE. The editors there have a lot of patience and will help you through whatever problem you have. Beyond My Ken (talk) 06:46, 31 August 2019 (UTC)
