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.

Blue and humpback

Please refrain from editing these articles. Your edits are not helpful for these FA articles and most of your sources are of low quality. You should probably practice editing on non-FA/GA articles. LittleJerry (talk) 03:27, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It just contains information that experts have researched. Koo-1876 (talk) 05:48, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Then, I think it is not necessary to erase the factual information when it would be enough to just correct the article. Koo-1876 (talk) 05:54, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

We are already citing books written by experts. Please move on and don't edit war. Or at least take it to the talk page. LittleJerry (talk) 12:01, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

February 2025

You have been blocked from editing for a period of 72 hours for edit warring. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.

If you believe that there are good reasons for being unblocked, please review Wikipedia's guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. UtherSRG (talk) 13:40, 20 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Whales again

You were just blocked for edit warring and not your starting again. As I said we already have citations from books and peer reviewed articles. Why do you insist on adding websites? Go to the talk pages to argue your points. So what your doing now will only get you blocked indefinitely. LittleJerry (talk) 16:35, 23 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Better but you also have to learn to paraphrase a source see WP:COPYVIO and WP:PARAPHRASE. LittleJerry (talk) 11:52, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

And again at Blue whale with the rubbish sources, bad phrasing, and edit-warring. Stop this. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 13:44, 13 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I'll be careful. Koo-1876 (talk) 14:15, 14 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
You did it again. Why? If you keep doing this, you'll likely be blocked because you'd lose good faith. LittleJerry (talk) 22:03, 2 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
