Tips

Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue at the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.

Connecting

If you are interested, there is already a community of users who are roadfans or who edit articles about roads, just like you! Stop by any of these WikiProjects—WP:HWY (worldwide), WP:AURD (Australia), WP:CARD (Canada), WP:HKRD (Hong Kong), WP:INRD (India), WP:UKRD (United Kingdom), or WP:USRD (United States)—and contribute. If your interest is in roads in the United States, there is an excellent new user's guide. There is a wealth of information and resources for creating a great article. If you have questions about any of these WikiProjects, you can ask on each project's talk page, or you can ask me!

If you would like to chat with other editors, you can join the Wikimedia Community Discord server. Here, there are several editors who are willing to answer your questions.

Your submission at Articles for creation: sandbox (January 15)

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Eagleash was:

This submission seems to be a test edit and not an article worthy of an encyclopedia. Please use the sandbox for any editing tests, but do not submit for review until you have an article that you want reviewed for inclusion in Wikipedia. Thank you.

The comment the reviewer left was:

Not clear what this is supposed to be? The page also 'stalled' with loading issues. Please review WP:YFA.

Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to User:Bramwellelijah7/sandbox and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you do not edit your draft in the next 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
If you need any assistance, or have experienced any untoward behavior associated with this submission, you can ask for help at the Articles for creation help desk, on the reviewer's talk page or use Wikipedia's real-time chat help from experienced editors.

Hello, Bramwellelijah7! Having an article draft declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there! Eagleash (talk) 02:05, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick piece of advice, but normally one does not use their user page for test editing. The purpose of a user page is to impart some information about the editor behind the account, and one would use their sandbox page for test editing or drafting new articles. Other editors watching this talk page, say because they gave you a welcome message to which you might reply, will see every test edit to your user page on their watchlists.

Your sandbox

You might have noticed I've been cleaning up your sandbox. I monitor several categories that trigger when there is an error in the junction list templates, so I just go in and clean it up myself. I don't want you to think I'm wikistalking you. That being said, I have a some tips for you.

There is a generic {{Jctint}}. Templates like {{MNint}}, {{NYint}}, and {{NYCint}} are customized for that specific state or city, whatever the case may be. {{Jctint}} is used when the state-specific template can't be used.
Watch out for end brackets }}. If you don't close the template, the wiki software will get confused.
Use the preview function. You'll notice the templates that are not closed that way.

If you have any questions, you can always ask me. –Fredddie ™ 21:41, 21 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
