    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

If you need further help, you can:

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 userpage.

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!

Saatchi Yates moved to draftspace edit

Thanks for your contributions to Saatchi Yates. Unfortunately, it is not ready for publishing because it needs more sources to establish notability. Your article is now a draft where you can improve it undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page. DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:12, 24 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi, I've moved this into the draft space for now, as notability hasn't been established. Per WP:GNG, we need to see significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources. -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 13:19, 24 August 2023 (UTC)Reply

October 2023 edit

  Hello, Nijinsky1. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on Wikipedia, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.

Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 16:52, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia. 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. Thank you. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 16:57, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Your edits have no reference which is required per WP:BLP. Also in this edit summary you said "We restored information..." Who is we? ThaddeusSholto (talk) 16:57, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Hi ThaddeusSholto. Thank you for your comments, I appreciate they are made in good faith. The edits made were intended to provide more information for the artist's exhibition history and was not in any way promotional. Nijinsky1 (talk) 17:02, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
That didn't really answer what I asked. Who is "we"? ThaddeusSholto (talk) 17:05, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
My friend, we have both studied the artist in the context of fellow YBAs. As you can see on my page, I have previously made a small edit on the Jenny Saville page. Nijinsky1 (talk) 17:07, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
So more than one person is using this account? Or are you claiming you are editing in conjunction with a friend? If you are "fellow YBAs" then what, exactly, is your connection to the articles you have been editing? ThaddeusSholto (talk) 17:11, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hi, I was editing in conjunction with a friend. We have an academic interest in art, and through researching the YBA generation, wanted to add information on Jason's exhibition history, noticing that the format of the information was confusing and not referenced. Nijinsky1 (talk) 17:20, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
What account is your friend using and what, if any, connection do either of you have to the subjects you have been editing? It is difficult for me to believe you have none if you keep adding unreferenced personal information to articles. ThaddeusSholto (talk) 17:44, 20 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Concern regarding Draft:Saatchi Yates edit

  Hello, Nijinsky1. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:Saatchi Yates, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.
