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.

I have sent you a note about a page you started

Hi Jishara. Thank you for your work on Somers Farkas. Another editor, Mariamnei, has reviewed it as part of new pages patrol and left the following comment:

Thank you for your work on this article. Please show more coverage in secondary sources. Thanks and have a good day!

@Mariamnei:: thanks for letting me know! I have added ~six more secondary sources. I hope Somers Farkas's page works better now! Jishara (talk) 15:29, 16 March 2026 (UTC)

Thank you very much. I think the article is good now and I marked it for review. Thanks and have a great day! Mariamnei (talk) 06:21, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

I have, again, moved Tony Mattivi to Draft space

Please leave Draft:Tony Mattivi at it's current location unless/until Tony Mattivi is confirmed. This is the current policy of WikiProject United States courts and judges, particularly as Tony Mattivi likely will NOT satisfy WP:GNG until he takes office as a judge. ALSO, this will prevent the page from being nominated for deletion for failure to pass WP:GNG. You ARE encouraged to continue working on the page in draft space and getting it ready for when Mattivi is confirmed and takes office. Thank you. Safiel (talk) 15:51, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

My apologies, I did not realize the reason and assumed that it had to do with sourcing. Thank you for letting me know Jishara (talk) 04:52, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

Nomination of Tony Mattivi for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Tony Mattivi is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tony Mattivi until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Safiel (talk) 17:35, 22 March 2026 (UTC)

• Update The deletion discussion will almost certainly end with the article returned to draft space. Very unlikely that it will actually be deleted. Just wanted to give you that update. Safiel (talk) 15:45, 23 March 2026 (UTC)

  Thank you for letting me know. And sorry again about that, I did not realize about notability and thought/assumed the problem was sourcing. Jishara (talk) 16:27, 23 March 2026 (UTC)
