First: I know you may be new here but consider this a formal warning. Do not post this same question repetitively here again. It will be considered spam and could be removed. Instead, respond to the editors who answered previously by using the little blue edit link next to the title of the section or on our talk pages. I will copy this message to your talk page too. Thanks for your cooperation. EoRdE6(Come Talk to Me!) 01:59, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Editing

[edit]

Hi Student - I'd like to remind you that the Teahouse is a place for editors to get help with editing articles and contributing to Wikipedia. Right now, all of your edits so far have been asking repetitive questions at the Teahouse. I highly recommend using the Teahouse only to ask questions related to editing, once you've actually started. You may find Wikipedia:Introduction useful. ~SuperHamster Talk Contribs 22:11, 25 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Some easy, non-controversial ideas to get started editing

[edit]

Hi there. I noticed on the Teahouse that you have asked questions, but not started editing yet. Perhaps I can offer a couple of simple, straightforward ideas where you could start; this will help you to build your experience and skills.

  1. Fixing spelling mistakes - probably the easiest thing of all. No need to find references or anything (though it can be a good idea to check a dictionary, to be sure). And fill in the Edit Summary with a quick comment on what you did, such as "Spelling fix: cencorship → censorship". To get you started, here are a few examples I found just now:
  2. Checking new users' articles is a good way to learn, and to improve those articles at the same time. They are listed at Special:Contributions/newbies. I recommend ticking the box for "Only show edits that are page creations" (then the Search button). Some of these articles are written by people who don't have English as their first language, so they benefit from some editing to make their language clearer. Others need basic layout, like marking the headings properly. And some are in great shape already, and don't need improvement - you will come across all types. Don't feel that you have to make the article perfect; any improvement is a step forward, and somebody else will take the next step.
  3. Subjects you know are generally easier to work on. In my early days I spent a lot of time editing articles about suburbs near me. By looking at some of the better articles, I learned how to get the Census breakdowns, and I put those into lots of articles where they were missing or out of date. This also gave me practice at providing a reference, in a fairly standard and predictable way. But that was me - you will come up with your own way; you might like to check articles related to a subject you're interested in. If so, you can make use of the "Category" link at the bottom of an article to find articles on similar subjects.

Anyway, I don't want to overwhelm you with too much. These are just some ideas that I found helpful, and they might be helpful to you, too. I encourage you to get started, no matter how small - it all helps!--Gronk Oz (talk) 07:44, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

[edit]

Studentcollege I have created a userpage for you, to help get you started. Go to wp:wikifauna to find out what sort of wikicreature you are or go to template:infobox user to add an"about me" table to your page. You can add userboxes like

This user loves pizza.

as well. I hope I was helpful, and feel free to ask me questions or talk toe at my talk page.(BluJay (talk) 01:29, 28 March 2015 (UTC))[reply]

Warning

[edit]

If you do not stop asking repetitive unproductive questions at the Teahouse, I will have to ask that you be topic banned from asking Teahouse questions. That would make both of us very unhappy. Please stop now. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 04:11, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I mean it. You must stop now. I will be going to sleep now, and tomorrow will be my birthday. If you do not stop your disruption, I will ask for a topic ban. I do not want to spend my birthday that way. If necessary, I will. Stop NOW. Cullen328 Let's discuss it 05:52, 28 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello, Studentcollege, welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions. Your editing pattern indicates that you may be using multiple accounts or coordinating editing with people outside Wikipedia. Our policy on multiple accounts usually does not allow this, and users who use multiple accounts may be blocked from editing. If you operate multiple accounts directly or with the help of another person, please remember to disclose these connections. Thank you. Theroadislong (talk) 19:50, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Wikipedia:Teahouse/Questions. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been reverted or removed.

  • If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor then please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
  • If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive, until the dispute is resolved through consensus. Continuing to edit disruptively could result in loss of editing privileges. You have been warned before. Stop posting the same question multiple times at the Teahouse, it's considered trolling/vandalism. Joseph2302 (talk) 21:50, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
