There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
  Perform maintenance tasks
           
  Become a member of a project that interests you
  Help design new templates

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please remember to:

  • Always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes ~~~~ at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Fixed image sizes

[edit]

I have had to correct the metadata on images you have been adding because you gave a fixed size (300 pixels). Since you can't know whether the reader has a tiny smartphone, a mid-sized laptop or a giant sports bar screen, this practice is generally deprecated. If a bigger size than a normal thumbnail, you can use upright 200% or whatever is appropriate (125% is usually good). --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 10:18, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There is an exception of course. (Isn't there always?) Most infoboxes are 300px wide so if you want an image to line up with the infobox, you have specify an exact size. --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 15:17, 21 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your edits to Ye Min Oo, please use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history, as well as helping prevent edit conflicts. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the article will look like without actually saving it.

The Show preview button is right next to the Publish changes button and below the edit summary field.

It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance. Thank you. - Sumanuil (talk) 21:41, 22 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Captions

[edit]

Please make sure to include captions when placing images into articles. The context may not be immediately apparent for other people who aren't you. ♠PMC(talk) 18:38, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Just jamming the image name into the caption field as you did here is not helpful. That image name is meaningless in English - it's German. Please slow down and stop making work for other editors! ♠PMC(talk) 20:55, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I have now had to revert three of your image additions ([1], [2], and [3]) because they introduced images of the wrong species. I am begging you to go back and review your own edits and ensure that each one has an actual correct image that applies specifically to the article, and an appropriate and informative caption. If you don't, and you continue to make these high-speed inaccurate edits, I will block you from mainspace to prevent disruption to the encyclopedia. ♠PMC(talk) 21:29, 26 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

unrelated image

[edit]

I have reverted the image you added to the Vivi-Tone article, as it seems to bear no relation to the article whatsoever. Please do not add images haphazardly. Mark Froelich (talk) 23:16, 27 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Looking good!

[edit]

Hi Emmanuel, I just wanted to say that the additions you've made today are great. The captions are suitable and the images are all relevant to the subject. I appreciate you adapting to our way of doing things. However, it would still be best if you could go back through your thousands of other edits to ensure they are all up to this same standard. It is not fair to expect other editors to do this for you. ♠PMC(talk) 02:08, 30 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Emmanuel Obiajulu (talk) 13:04, 31 July 2021 (UTC) Thank you Premeditated Chaos. I will work work on them.[reply]
