    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

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 this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. 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.

September 2020 edit

  Hello, I'm Tartan357. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Vladimir Putin have been undone because they did not appear constructive. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you have any questions, you can ask for assistance at the Teahouse. Thanks.  — Tartan357  (Talk) 21:53, 13 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Vladimir Putin. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Abbyjjjj96 (talk) 00:43, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

My edit to Putin's page edit

You removed my edit to Putin's page stating that it was non - constructive or unconstructive. Can you please tell me what is the definition of unconstructive ? And just because you have some more editing rights, it doesn't mean that you can go about removing edits under the garb of constructive/ non-constructive stuff. What I stated in the edit is the true feeling/opinion of thinking people worldwide. Shyamcalm (talk) 06:35, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

I assume that you're addressing me as you've made an identical comment on my talk page. Please try to keep discussion in one place. This is your talk page, so this is essentially a message that you're addressing to yourself. — Tartan357  (Talk) 12:17, 14 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

My edit to Putin's page edit

I wonder who has given you rights to revert/drop addition to the article, which are genuine and reflect the correct practical situations. Shyamcalm (talk) 11:33, 15 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

September 2020 edit

  Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. You appear to be repeatedly reverting or undoing other editors' contributions at Vladimir Putin. Although this may seem necessary to protect your preferred version of a page, on Wikipedia this is known as "edit warring" and is usually seen as obstructing the normal editing process, as it often creates animosity between editors. Instead of reverting, please discuss the situation with the editor(s) involved and try to reach a consensus on the talk page.

If editors continue to revert to their preferred version they are likely to lose their editing privileges. This isn't done to punish an editor, but to prevent the disruption caused by edit warring. In particular, editors should be aware of the three-revert rule, which says that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Edit warring on Wikipedia is not acceptable in any amount, and violating the three-revert rule is very likely to result in loss of your editing privileges.

Please stop replacing "Acting" in the infobox with "As acting President". Your edit summaries that the former is "incorrect" are misleading. Your change clutters the infobox unnecessarily. Please take it to the talk page.  — Tartan357  (Talk) 16:42, 16 September 2020 (UTC)Reply
