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?
- 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.
- Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
- 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.
- Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
- 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). - In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
- 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.

[edit]Hi Rwenyerson, I just wanted to make sure that you are aware of the policy on canvassing. Best regards, St.nerol (talk) 20:17, 13 October 2023 (UTC)
Blocked from email
[edit]Based on a report to the Arbitration Committee and information obtained from the checkuser tool, it appears that you have improperly canvassed almost 50 editors to an AfD discussion. Accordingly, I am imposing an indefinite partial block from email on your account pending possible further action. Please see WP:AAB for appeal information. This is a checkuser action and should not be reversed by administrators without consulting a CheckUser. Best, KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 05:28, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
- I have upgraded this block to a full standard checkuser block for violations of the sockpuppetry policy. KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 05:36, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
Blocked as a sockpuppet
[edit]
Wikipedia's technical logs indicate that this user account has been or may be used abusively as a sockpuppet of User:יניב הורון per the evidence presented at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/יניב הורון. It has been blocked indefinitely from editing to prevent abuse. In addition, your ability to edit your talk page has also been revoked.
Note that multiple accounts are allowed, but not for illegitimate reasons, and any contributions made while evading blocks or bans may be reverted or deleted.
If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you should review the guide to appealing blocks, and then appeal your block by submitting a request to the Unblock Ticket Request System.
Administrators: Checkusers have access to confidential system logs not accessible by the public or by administrators due to the Wikimedia Foundation's privacy policy. You must not loosen or remove this block, or issue an IP block exemption, without consulting with a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee. Administrators who undo checkuser blocks without permission from a checkuser or the Arbitration Committee may be summarily desysopped. KevinL (aka L235 · t · c) 06:19, 16 October 2023 (UTC)
