Welcome
[edit]Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia!
Someone using this IP address, 202.7.236.173, made test edits on the page Paul Kelly (Australian musician) which have been reverted or removed. If you did this, please use the sandbox for any other tests you may want to perform. If 202.7.236.173 is a shared IP address and you did not do this, you may wish to consider getting a username to avoid confusion with other editors and further irrelevant notices.
Here are a few good links for newcomers:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Tips on starting your first article
- Help pages • Tips
- Introduction to Wikipedia
Here are some other hints and tips:
- I recommend that you get a username. You do not have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but creating an account is quick, free and non-intrusive, requires no personal information, and there are many benefits of having a username. (If you edit without a username, your IP address is used to identify you instead.)
- When using talk pages, please sign your name at the end of your messages by typing four tildes (~~~~). This will automatically produce your username (or IP address) and the date.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, visit the Teahouse, our help forum for new users, or type {{helpme}}
here on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Again, welcome! Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:22, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
Hello. I have noticed that you often edit without using an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This helps your fellow editors use their time more productively, rather than spending it unnecessarily scrutinizing and verifying your work. Even a short summary is better than no summary, and summaries are particularly important for large, complex, or potentially controversial edits. To help yourself remember, you may wish to check the "prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" box in your preferences. Thanks! Laterthanyouthink (talk) 03:29, 3 January 2023 (UTC)

At the beginning of your editing with this IP number - you were asked/suggested to add edit summaries to explain your creation of new categories which have not much info anyway - and you then proceed to spend the next ten hours and hundreds of edits, not adding anything that suggests you either read or acknowledged the messages above...
usually a sign of good faith is either responding or explaining, or even adding edit summaries as requested... JarrahTree 13:41, 3 January 2023 (UTC)
