Why can't I edit some particular pages?

Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block.

Where can I experiment with editing Wikipedia?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

How do I create an article?

See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below.

How do I create citations?

Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:

==References==
{{Reflist}}

What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one?

A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Wikipedia. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

Hello, I'm Venkat TL. I noticed that you recently removed content from Kovilpatti (state assembly constituency) without adequately explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an accurate edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry; the removed content has been restored. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Venkat TL (talk) 11:05, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Good Evening. Thank you for your message. I found that there is no relevant information about the Kovilpatti in the page of S. Rajendran, so that I have removed the link and the same has been translated to Tamil (ta:ச. இராஜேந்திரன்). If you know that Kerala as well as Kovilpatte MLA both are the same S. Rajendran then add this information in the page which will be helpful us. Since I have no idea about these persons based on the content I removed the link. If it is wrong, I regret for the same. --சத்திரத்தான் (talk) 11:17, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@சத்திரத்தான் thank you for your reply. Now it is more clear. Actually as you have said, this is a case of 2 people with same name. One is from CPI and another from CPI M. You are right in removing the link, but please next time make it clear in the edit summary so that others can understand it. Now on Kovilpatti page, I am linking to the CPI leader page. Hope you are ok with it. Venkat TL (talk) 12:43, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@சத்திரத்தான், Please check the article and its categories. S. Rajendran (CPI politician) Venkat TL (talk) 12:48, 19 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

January 2022

Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:

Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)

I noticed your recent edit to Tiruchengode (state assembly constituency) does not have an edit summary. You can use the edit summary field to explain your reasoning for an edit, or provide a description of what the edit changes. Summaries save time for other editors and reduce the chances your edit will be misunderstood. For some edits a summary may be quite brief.

Please provide an edit summary for every edit you make. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks! Venkat TL (talk) 11:39, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Sir, your points are taken and will follow during my next edit. Thank you--சத்திரத்தான் (talk) 11:59, 30 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of கு. பாலகிருட்டிணன்

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on கு. பாலகிருட்டிணன், requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A2 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a foreign language article that has essentially the same content as https://ta.wikipedia.org/wiki/கு._பாலகிருட்டிணன், an article on another Wikimedia Foundation project. Please see Wikipedia:Translation to learn about requests for, and coordination of, translations from foreign-language Wikipedias into English.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. — rsjaffe 🗣️ 13:47, 24 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for September 30

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of villages in Perambalur district, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Asur. 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.)

About M. Sankaran

Hi /சத்திரத்தான்

While you and I both understand that Tamil language naming conventions are rather complex, it would possibly be helpful if you could locate a source that might indicate what his surname and given name "in English" (so to speak) is.

Also: does M. Sankaran have an an article on the Hindi and Tamil language Wikipedias?

A note on dois

Thanks for your contribution to Cnemaspis. When you include a doi in a reference, leave off the https://doi.org/ bit. The software is designed to make a link out of the code part specific to the reference, and a full URL causes an error. Cheers, BlackcurrantTea (talk) 17:16, 7 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion discussion about Shri Raosaheb Ramrao Patil Mahavidyalaya

Hello சத்திரத்தான், and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, Shri Raosaheb Ramrao Patil Mahavidyalaya, should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Shri Raosaheb Ramrao Patil Mahavidyalaya.

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|North8000}}. And don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

However, there is a small issue with your username. As it is not in Latin script, it may be illegible to most other contributors to the English Wikipedia. Although usernames like yours are not prohibited, Wikipedia's signature guideline and username policy encourage you, as a courtesy to other users, to alter your signature so that it also includes a transliteration of your username using Latin characters, so others can see it correctly.
