Hello, Denise Henriques, 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.

[edit]

There is a possibility of WP:LINKSPAM with your recent edits. They are adding links to the same website repeatedly, and in some cases they do not seem to be directly relevant to the subject of the article. Please check that the link contains material that would help a reader. ♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 13:16, 20 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And the links don't work (anymore). --Millbart (talk) 10:45, 10 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Definately link spam. Recent links edited into Ludwig van Beethoven are not relevant at all to be in that article. In some lesser-known personalities from Portugal it may make sense. Clear self-promotion for own work at National Library of Portugal. Despite being warned the link spam has continued, not sure how to deal with this, maybe Gerda Arendt can help.

I reverted those, which are NOT relevant to Beethoven's biography, and probably not even for the individual pieces. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:45, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I looked at one: it's simply the link to the entry of the National Library of Portugal, which is available anyway in authority control. Clutter. Imagine we would add all links to all these libraries ... - Denise, do you understand that? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 08:48, 14 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
She keeps endlessly adding this links, despite the warnings. I'm not sure how or where to report this, but I think all her edits should be reverted. Gor1995 (talk) 23:45, 30 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

December 2023 Spam warning

[edit]

Warning icon Please stop. If you continue to add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, you may be blocked from editing. It is considered spamming and Wikipedia is not a vehicle for advertising or promotion. Because Wikipedia uses nofollow tags, additions of links to Wikipedia will not alter search engine rankings.
