Welcome to Wikipedia!
Hello, Jamesthedestroyer43, and welcome to Wikipedia!

An edit that you recently made seemed to be a test. If you want more practice editing, please use the sandbox.

Here are a few links to pages you might find helpful:

 * Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.

You may also want to take the Wikipedia Adventure, an interactive tour that will help you learn the basics of editing Wikipedia. You can visit the Teahouse to ask questions or seek help.

Please remember to sign your messages on talk pages by typing four tildes ( ~ ); this will automatically insert your username and the date. If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on my talk page, or, and a volunteer should respond shortly. Again, welcome! RamaKrishnaHare (talk) 20:22, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

 You have been blocked indefinitely from editing because it appears that you are not here to build an encyclopedia. If you think there are good reasons for being unblocked, please read the guide to appealing blocks, then add the following text below the block notice on your talk page:.

 * If you are serious about being a contributing editor going forward, you can appeal the block. In your appeal state exactly what you did and promise not to do it again. My opinion is that may have been overly hasty, as it appears you added a nonsense word to an article, then removed it a couple of minutes later. Most Administrators would have done a Warning or a short-term block. David notMD (talk) 21:37, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I will add that your account did the vandalism and reverted it, so your Edit summary "my friend played a horrible prank on me, no harm no foul" came across as a blatant lie. That's another thing to admit in your appeal. David notMD (talk) 21:40, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
