Welcome Beatlemania2002!

Hello Beatlemania2002. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Sm8900, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
    Fight vandalism
    Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
    Help contribute to articles
    Perform maintenance tasks
           
    Become a member of a project that interests you
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

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.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

May 2022 edit

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Kit Connor. 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. As I mentioned, please address your concern and get consensus in the talk page. Aviator006 (talk) 19:36, 18 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Do not WP:EDIT WAR, as you did with your recent edit to Arthur Sullivan. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. -- Ssilvers (talk) 03:31, 27 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Birth dates in short descriptions edit

Please don't add birth dates. Per WP:SHORTDESC, it should be "very brief". Birth date is excessive and not commonly included. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 23:28, 8 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Minor edit edit

Please do not refer to an edit as a "minor edit" in an edit summary if it is not a minor edit. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. As just one example, this is not a minor edit. If in doubt, don't say it's minor edit. See Help:Minor edit for more information. Sundayclose (talk) 03:00, 18 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom 2022 Elections voter message edit

Hello! Voting in the 2022 Arbitration Committee elections is now open until 23:59 (UTC) on Monday, 12 December 2022. All eligible users are allowed to vote. Users with alternate accounts may only vote once.

The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to impose binding solutions to disputes between editors, primarily for serious conduct disputes the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the authority to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.

If you wish to participate in the 2022 election, please review the candidates and submit your choices on the voting page. If you no longer wish to receive these messages, you may add {{NoACEMM}} to your user talk page. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:55, 29 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

David Crosby edit

Please open discussion at Talk:David Crosby instead of reverting again. Valereee (talk) 20:49, 20 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

January 2023 edit

  Please do not introduce incorrect information into articles, as you did to Danny Masterson. Your edits could be interpreted as vandalism and have been reverted. If you believe the information you added was correct, please cite references or sources or discuss the changes on the article's talk page before making them again. If you would like to experiment, use your sandbox. There is nothing in the article to claim that Masterson has retired from acting. Until there is, he should not be described as a former actor. DonIago (talk) 14:42, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

March 2023 edit

  Please stop. If you continue to violate Wikipedia's no original research policy by adding your personal analysis or synthesis into articles, as you did at Nancy Sinatra, you may be blocked from editing. Binksternet (talk) 02:16, 16 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

Why are you making such a big deal about this? I’m sorry I feel like I did nothing wrong. I feel like I did something right with my edit. Please let me edit that. You do not have the right to boss me around you are not on charge of this of what I do. I disagree highly with your edit. She retired that makes more sense don’t you think.

Lou Costello Producer edit

By that standard, "actor" should be deleted, too, since he only "straight acted" in one TV show. He produced two films, and arguably gave his credit in producing the team's TV series to his brother.Plummer (talk) 14:44, 19 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
