Please don’t bite me, I’m a newbie!
I’m a university student in a Wikipedia Education class, and I’m currently learning how to contribute to Wikipedia.
I am approaching my subject in good faith.
If you have any concerns or questions, my tutor’s name is Airbubbles451 (talk · contribs). Thanks!
Welcome![edit]
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome! — Diannaa (talk) 14:32, 24 March 2022 (UTC)
Department of Science and Technology (India)[edit]
I reverted your edits to Department of Science and Technology (India). It appears that you copied a fair bit of text from [1], [2], and probably other sources. I see that Diannaa already left you a welcome message, including on the importance of copyrights -- Wikipedia takes this very seriously. Your edits also tended to break the formatting on the page and introduced other problems. I'd be happy to engage with you on the article's talk page to find better ways to do what you are aiming for.

- Hi , I would appreciate your help in improving the article and make my contribution towards it . Thanks Chaitanya2412 (talk) 01:18, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
- Well, my first piece of advice would be to go piece by piece. Find one area of the article where coverage really should be expanded, and work on that. For an article like this, you generally need to find reliable secondary sources -- newspapers are a main example. (For some very basic facts, like who is the director or similar, you can source to the web page of the DST, but not for anything very substantial.) You can then summarize the discussion in the reliable secondary sources. Note the difference between summarize and copy, or even between summarize and paraphrase. Note that the citation style used in the current article uses the "cite web" (or "cite news", or ...) template, and you should generally try to match the existing citation style in an extant article. I don't think that this article is the easiest one to try to expand, and you might be better off with a shorter stub. Russ Woodroofe (talk) 09:45, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
