Welcome!
[edit]Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial

Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

Adding age of death
[edit]Hello @Kushangaza rafiki! Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Usually the age at which someone died is not especially important and can by calculated from the dates of birth and death by anyone interested, so please do not add it to the lead section of articles. You did this here and here at Friedrich-Paul von Groszheim, and also at a different article. At von Groszheim's article, you seem to have miscalculated his age as well – it seems to me that he died at 99.
I also have some advice about this edit: Please try to use correct capitalization and punctuation, as others have to clean up after you if you do not, and there is a chance that they simply revert your edit instead. Also, please do not change between different varieties of English – usually this isn't needed. Toadspike [Talk] 14:01, 21 June 2024 (UTC)
