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?

1. 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.
2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
3. 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.
4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
5. 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).
6. In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
7. 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.

This is SA 13 Bro's talk page, where you can send him messages and comments.

Long time no see!

Hi SA 13 Bro! I haven't talked to you or seen you around in quite some time. I hope that you're doing well and that life is happy and stress-free. I just wanted to leave you a message to say hello and let you know that I was thinking about you... Cheers - ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 10:13, 11 February 2019 (UTC)

Hi @Oshwah:, thanks to you for interview me. Ah yes, nowadays I am quite busy on my works in real-life time and very less time on the web, I occasionally will still continue to do the patrol recent changes work if I got the time. Wish you a happy new year and a happy life as well, cheers. :D SA 13 Bro (talk) 16:57, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

I'm glad to hear that you're doing well and that life is happy. Yes, definitely keep your happiness and well-being as your top priority in life, and do so accordingly with your personal life and free time. :-) If it means that you edit and participate here less, then so be it - happiness is important. You only live one life and time goes by very fast. Enjoy it while you have it. ;-) Anyways, it's good to hear from you and I hope to keep in touch! Until our paths cross again... my very best - ~Oshwah~^{(talk) (contribs)} 17:06, 12 February 2019 (UTC)

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages

As I made you aware of in January 2018, Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide. I've gone ahead and added a source to back up your recent addition to February 16 ‎. Please try to find sources for additions to these pages as the burden to provide them is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 23:57, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

@Toddst1: Sure, thank for your message. I has filled in 1 bare reference on the article and recited the new source to February 16. SA 13 Bro (talk) 01:40, 2 May 2019 (UTC)

Grammar correction for page - "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_Al-Assa"

Hi,

Greetings for the day!

I did some grammar and comprehension editing/corrections on the following page:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_Al-Assa.

I had done that earlier also, but you removed the edit citing lack of authentic sources. As this is a grammar correction, you should check my correction and compare it before my edit.

Thanks & regards,

Rashid Hussain

@Koolrash2002: Which of my removal edits that are you indicated, IP 2.91.224.104 or IP 95.184.11.195? SA 13 Bro (talk) 08:42, 17 June 2019 (UTC)

Google Code-In 2019 is coming - please mentor some documentation tasks!

Hello,

Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.

I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to [e-mail], so we can invite you in!

From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.

If you have any questions, please let us know at [e-mail].

Thank you!
