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

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 this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

[edit]

Don't go around to album pages and changing the date range from a preference for four digits, to a preference for two digits, it's not supposed to be that way, there was even a discussion about it. It's in the guidelines, look it up (WP:DATERANGE). TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 05:23, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Please do not add or change content, as you did at Year of the Dog... Again, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Thank you. Binksternet (talk) 14:41, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Revival (Eminem album), you may be blocked from editing. TheAmazingPeanuts (talk) 10:26, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

As you were told 11 hours ago by TheAmazingPeanuts, our date style is settled on four-digit years in date ranges, so please stop trimming them down to two digits.
Secondly, you have been adding to and changing the dates of recording sessions, but without citing a source. Wikipedia is built on WP:Verifiability which means the dates you are putting into article must be verifiable in published sources. That's why I just performed dozens of reversions to your work today. If you don't stop going against the manual of style guideline, and the verifiability policy, then you'll be blocked. Binksternet (talk) 16:36, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Warning icon Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Redman (rapper), you may be blocked from editing. Serols (talk) 16:37, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Stop icon You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you vandalize Wikipedia, as you did with this edit to Red Gone Wild: Thee Album. Serols (talk) 16:45, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Information icon Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. When you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), such as at User talk:Jax 0677, please be sure to sign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

  1. Add four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment; or
  2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button ( or ) located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 18:13, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
