There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

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!

Speedy deletion nomination of Robert Fico (Political) edit

Hello VNW060222,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Justiyaya, and I thank you for your contributions.

I wanted to let you know, however, that I have tagged an article that you started, Robert Fico (Political), for deletion, because there's already a page about that topic at Robert Fico. Please don't be discouraged; we appreciate your effort in creating new articles. To avoid this in the future, consider using the search function to find pages that already cover what you want to write about.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top. If the page is already deleted by the time you come across this message and you wish to retrieve the deleted material, please contact the deleting administrator.

For any further query, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Justiyaya}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Message delivered via the Page Curation tool, on behalf of the reviewer.

Hi there! please do not copy and paste existing pages onto new pages, it creates a decent bit of issues, we move the pages instead and for popular pages there usually is discussion before that could occur. The new title isn't really great either, political should probably be politician and I don't think there is any other pages that might cause the added specifier to be necessary.

Also there's no need to use parentheses to disambiguate Robert Fico from Robert Rico, which I think is what you were trying to do. We only do this when two subjects have the same name, not similar looking names. See WP:DAB for the guidelines. – filelakeshoe (t / c) 🐱 14:39, 2 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

How to make a request edit

Instead of "you add missing armed force" it would be more polite to say "please could you add this missing flag for the armed forces" — Martin (MSGJ · talk) 06:50, 29 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for your contributions to 26th Mechanized Infantry Division (South Korea). Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it has no sources. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.
