[edit]

Hello, I'm Shellwood. I noticed that in this edit to 7 July Memorial, you removed all the content without explaining why. In the future, it would be helpful to others if you described your changes to Wikipedia with an edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, I restored the page's content. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks. Shellwood (talk) 21:24, 30 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Veterans benefits for post-traumatic stress disorder in the United States

[edit]

Someone from this IP address has on two occasions, 13 Nov 2018 (diff) and 20 Nov 2018 (diff), added inappropriate text to Veterans benefits for post-traumatic stress disorder in the United States, apparently in an attempt to promote a company website. Please do not do this. It will keep getting deleted.   - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) 23:03, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I should have looked more carefully at the URLs (website addresses). It seems that whomever is adding this content is not trying to promote a company website, but is trying to insert information about service animals for veterans with PTSD. There is nothing wrong with adding such information in and of itself, but you need to put it in the appropriate place within the article.
The sentence to which you added content specifically refers to benefits that the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) provides to veterans receiving service-connected benefits for PTSD. As far as I know, VA does not provide service animals to such veterans. If that policy changed recently, i.e., VA does provide (or pay for) service animals to veterans suffering from PTSD, please provide a citation. In that case your addition would be appropriate.
On the other hand, if service animals are not a current VA benefit, you could still add information about service animals and veterans with PTSD elsewhere in the article. But before you do so, please learn a little bit about how to properly add content ("edit") Wikipedia articles. It won't take long, and your edits are much less likely to get deleted. I will add a new section (below) welcoming you to Wikipedia and providing links to "getting started" articles and other helpful resources. Thank you -   - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) 23:14, 24 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

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.

Hello, I'm Eviolite. I noticed that you made an edit to a biography of a living person, Ricky Schroder, but you didn't support your changes with a citation to a reliable source. Wikipedia has a strict policy concerning how we write about living people, so please help us keep such articles accurate. If you think I made a mistake, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. eviolite (talk) 18:15, 7 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
