Although some prefer welcoming newcomers with cookies, I find fruit to be a healthier alternative.

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?

Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment.

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.

Piast writes about viruses as organisms

Dear Jedzwarzywa, your repeated interventions are among the most extraordinary I have seen in many years of editing. I can only suppose either that you are looking at a different paper of Piast's, or are very tired or similarly incapacitated.

Whatever the case, I asked you plainly to discuss the matter on the talk page: it was totally incorrect of you to revert again without discussion. I have therefore started the discussion myself, and am now warning you directly that a third reversion on your part would be taken as direct disruptive behaviour.

I have now quoted the two passages in Piast's paper that the core of what I've written comes from; and I note that we appear to agree on the table, so I find it frankly incredible that you have seen fit to remove the table, twice, from the article even though it is plainly both correct and relevant.

If you have anything to say, other than "sorry", please do it on the article's talk page. All the best, Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:43, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Nomination of The bubble theory for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The bubble theory is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The bubble theory until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Virus

Hi, I would be interested to know why you consider this a "shady citation". Dimmock NJ, Easton AJ, Leppard K (2007). Introduction to Modern Virology (6th ed.). Blackwell Publishing. ISBN 978-1-4051-3645-7. Graham Beards (talk) 14:01, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
