Hello, Feww2, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.

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?
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.

You really need to stop using talk pages as forums[edit]

You seem to misunderstand Wikipedia. Try doing some real editing please. This isn't Facebook or some sort of discussion forum. Thanks. Doug Weller talk 11:36, 20 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not a native speaker (from Russia), just said that Wikipedia has clear political bias. It refused to call a group with swastika on their banner (Azov) "neo-Nazi", but calls other people neo-Nazis on much more shaky ground. Feww2 (talk) 16:43, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
You need to be discussing sources, not the views of some editors. Doug Weller talk 17:45, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I’ve looked at your most recent edits, all to talk pages and forum talk. So I’m blocking you from talk pages for a week. I want to see you editing because what you have been doing is not appropriate. Doug Weller talk 17:50, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
