Welcome
Hello, Kpresident123 and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students.

If you need help, check out Questions, ask me on, or ask your question on this page and then place  before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

Before you create an article, make sure you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one please tell your instructor about that. It is highly recommended that you place this text:  on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know this article is a subject of an educational assignment and aid your communication with them.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay even after your assignment is finished! SPF121188 (talk this way) (contribs) 16:04, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

Welcome!
Hello, Kpresident123, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with Wiki Education; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 16:12, 14 September 2022 (UTC)

You have an overdue training assignment.
Please complete the assigned training modules. --sheridanford (talk) 02:43, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm MrOllie. Wikipedia is written by people who have a wide diversity of opinions, but we try hard to make sure articles have a neutral point of view. Your recent edit seemed less than neutral and has been removed. If you think this was a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Nigga. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use your sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. ~  Chip &#x1f43a; 16:43, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
 * This edit was not vandalism. It needed work but had been discussed before additions were made, was cited and a fair effort to improve article coverage. I have asked on their talk to re-evaluate their actions.   16:58, 5 December 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your sincere attempts to improve Wikipedia
Since seeing your edits reverted with little or no explanation, I reviewed your contributions and see that you are clearly trying to contribute in good faith. You should be praised for the effort, not scolded or shoved aside; the English Wikipedia is a truly massive encyclopedia, with currently articles, so as you can imagine, there is also an enormous quantity of Policies and Guidelines to keep it all from spiralling wildly out of control and turning to pulp.

The five pillars are the, err, well, pillars that hold up the rest of the Ps & Gs. WP:5P1 and WP:5P3 are particularly important with regard to your recent reverted efforts. "Wikipedia is an encyclopedia"; "well duh" someone might think, consider what you should expect from an encyclopedia before editing. The information in an encyclopedia should be verifiable, accurate, well written, historically robust, neutral etc. but, and this is the funny thing about Wikipedia, it's not one person's job to nail it every time. "Wikipedia's editors should treat each other with respect and civility"; one of the most important aspects of this project is that everyone can (caveats apply) contribute and as such, we are crowdsourcing the sum of human knowledge, so have to play nicely together. I could drown you in many links to many pages of documentation about all this stuff, but at the end of the day, succeeding boils down to the assumption of good faith.

It appears to me that you have been wrongly reverted without being given due respect. You were obviously trying to contribute in good faith and other editors should have taken the time to work with you, rather than revert your work en masse and slap templated warnings on this, your talk page. Sadly, with the scale of the project, a great many editors with fancy automated tools, fervently patrol for anything that isn't absolutely perfect and zap it before it breeds, apparently without considering the five pillars, or that the editor they're reverting is a potential asset to the project.

Please don't give up; we need people to add their knowledge. No one of us knows it all, and it really does take us all to make this work. I kinda know my way around, so if at any time you aren't sure of anything wiki-related, feel free to message me on my talk page and I'll do my best (I am human and therefore fallible) to help. In the meantime; be bold! 01:08, 6 December 2022 (UTC)
