Hello, YeahResident. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions! I'm Skyllfully, 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

    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article

    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

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.

Edit summaries

edit

Please don't use misleading edit summaries like "fixed typo" when that's not what you did. Removing an associated act from a list of bands is certainly not fixing a typo, nor is it a minor edit. --Spike Wilbury (talk) 14:09, 28 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

No idea how to get to anyones talk page. You seem nice, but everyone else that has messaged me on wiki has been really mean. I am used to facebook so I don't know how to use it. YeahResident (talk) 15:43, 28 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

Metallica

edit

  Hello, I'm Mlpearc. I noticed that you made a change to an article, Metallica, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so! If you need guidance on referencing, please see the referencing for beginners tutorial, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. - Mlpearc (open channel) 14:28, 28 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

April 2018

edit

  Please do not add or change content, as you did at List of controversial album art, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Robvanvee 05:38, 17 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

  Hello. This is a message to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions, such as the edit you made to Guns N' Roses, did not appear constructive and has been reverted. Please take some time to familiarise yourself with our policies and guidelines. You can find information about these at our welcome page which also provides further information about contributing constructively to this encyclopedia. If you only meant to make test edits, please use the sandbox for that. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you may leave a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

List of independent wrestling promotions in the United States

Do they only want certain promotions. The biggest Michigan indy wrestling promotions are XICW, Horror Slam, RPW, then Pro Wrestling All-Stars of Detroit, CLASH Wrestling, and Metro Pro Wrestling. There are about 10 others as well. But I don't know how they want them added or maybe they don't want them on there. YeahResident (talk) 22:04, 9 September 2022 (UTC)Reply

  Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Guns N' Roses, you may be blocked from editing. Jauerbackdude?/dude. 13:08, 14 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

Categories

edit

Hello. Regarding this edit of yours [1], I noticed you attempted to add an item directly to a category page.

In Wikipedia, we do not add articles to a category by editing the category page, we add them by editing the individual articles' pages and linking the category from there. Please see Wikipedia:FAQ/Categorization#How do I add an article to a category? For newer editors, it's understandably a counter-intuitive system.

Category pages are not intended to be exhaustive lists. In fact, they are not really lists at all, in the sense they only display subjects with Wikipedia pages. They are navigation aids; merely groupings of related, existing English Wikipedia pages.

To categorize a page, first make sure the page actually belongs to the category. Then, go to the page you wish to categorize and add the category at the bottom of the page with the other categories. For instructions on how to do this using VisualEditor, see Help:VisualEditor § Editing categories.

For further detailed information, see Help:Category and Wikipedia:Categorization. Let me know if you need any assistance or have any questions. Cheers! --DB1729talk 17:02, 30 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Jasmin St. Claire

edit

Hi. Please do not add uncited material to articles, as you did with this edit to Jasmin St. Claire, as this violates Wikipedia's Verifiability policy. I know you don't edit here that often, but you've accumulated about 170 edits here since 2015, and you've been warned on least two prior occassions on this talk page about this.

Wikipedia requires that the material in its articles be accompanied by reliable, verifiable (usually secondary) sources explicitly cited in the text in the form of an inline citation, which you can learn to make here. If you ever have any other questions about editing, or need help regarding the site's policies, just let me know by leaving a message for me in a new section at the bottom of my talk page. Thanks.
