From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Welcome!

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions so far. I hope you like the place and decide to stay.

Here are some links to pages you may find useful:

You don't have to log in to read or edit articles on Wikipedia, but if you wish to acquire additional privileges, you can simply create a named account. It's free, requires no personal information, and lets you:

Note that in order for the first three features to be available, you must have had an account for a minimum number of days and made a minimum number of edits.

If you edit without using a named account, your IP address (72.199.82.140) is used to identify you instead.

I hope that you, as a Wikipedian, decide to continue contributing to our project: an encyclopedia of human knowledge that anyone can edit. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, or you can click here to ask for help on your talk page, and a volunteer should respond shortly. We also have an intuitive guide on editing if you're interested. By the way, please make sure to sign and date your talk page comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Information icon Hello, I'm Paleontologist99. An edit that you recently made to Biogenesis scandal seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thanks! Paleontologist99 ( talk) 02:31, 28 March 2020 (UTC) reply

Information icon Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in Pop rock. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. Paul Erik (talk) (contribs) 03:05, 13 April 2020 (UTC) reply

Welcome!

Hello! I noticed your contributions and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

Information icon Hello, I'm Amkgp. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Yours, Mine & Ours (2005 film), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Amkgp ( talk) 18:32, 2 May 2020 (UTC) reply

Capitalization

MOS:CAPS are the rules used for capitalization on Wikipedia. Also, you might want to read WP:THEBAND just in case. Walter Görlitz ( talk) 03:02, 3 May 2020 (UTC) reply
