Hello, Lambrusquiño, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

Why can't I edit some particular pages?
Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are
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
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}}

The Wikipedia principle of 'Assumption of good faith'

Hello Lambrusquiño, and welcome to Wikipedia! There are a lot of rules and principles to learn around here (Wikipedia calls them

"policies" and "guidelines"
) and no one expects you to be aware of them when you first start out. I'd like to introduce you to one important guideline that governs cooperation among editors: it's called the
Assumption of good faith
.

Wikipedia works through trying to achieve

assumption of good faith
—that is, we assume that other volunteer editors are here to improve the encyclopedia just like you are, even if what they consider an "improvement" is not the same as your view.

I noticed

consensus
through discussion.

I realize that you made that comment a month ago, and maybe since then you've already been exposed to the

WP:Tea house. Thanks again for your contributions, and happy editing! Mathglot (talk) 22:35, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

Lambrusquiño, on my talk page, you wrote the following in response to my message above:
Are you trying to intimidate me?

The message you left in my user page could be considered harrassment or wiki-hounding. There was no need for it. --Lambrusquiño (talk) 19:33, 30 September 2021 (UTC)

and to avoid fragmenting the discussion, I'll respond here.
As you start out in your career at Wikipedia, you will inevitably bump up against one or another of the many rules; there's no shame in that, we all have, even experienced editors continue to learn from mistakes; I know I do. If you're lucky, another editor will leave you a friendly message here on your Talk page to let you know about it, so you can watch for it in the future. My only purpose in leaving the message above was to encourage your contributions here, and let you know about an important principle at the encyclopedia which you seemed to be unaware of.
It's ironic that the
assume good faith when dealing with other editors—they are generally not out to get you but are trying to help. Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 21:28, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

Casting aspersions at a Requested Move

Given the discussion above, I was surprised to find the following comment you just left at

Talk:Allahabad#Requested move 20 September 2021 (diff
 ):

I would like to add that wikipedia should not be used for religious or political agenda which I suspect is the reason some users oppose moving the article.

That, plus the sentence immediately following sounded like a

assumption of good faith, and so I give up; I won't try anymore. Perhaps my approach has been the wrong one; in any case, I'll leave it to someone else to follow up with you on this, or perhaps you'll just figure it out on your own as you gain further experience here. I wish you the very best of luck, Mathglot (talk) 22:44, 30 September 2021 (UTC)[reply

Warning

Any further casting aspersions on motives of other editors and you will lose your editing privileges. —SpacemanSpiff 08:00, 1 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Misuse of minor edits checkbox

Talk:Allahabad that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. -- Toddy1 (talk) 19:43, 6 January 2022 (UTC)[reply
