  Don't spam
  Don't infringe copyright
  Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest

If you need further help, you can:

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{helpme}} here on your talk page, and someone will try to help.

There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:
  Fight vandalism
  Be a WikiFairy or a WikiGnome
  Help contribute to articles
           
  Perform maintenance tasks
  Become a member of a project that interests you

Remember to always sign your posts on talk pages. You can do this either by clicking on the button on the edit toolbar or by typing four tildes (~~~~) at the end of your post. This will automatically insert your signature, a link to this (your talk) page, and a timestamp.

The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!
To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own private sandbox for use any time. Perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your user page. By the way, seeing as you haven't created a user page yet, simply click here to start it.

[edit]

I've reverted your changes on the basis that they need prior discussion. I'm open to the possibility of moving the article - but, if you want to propose it again, please do so using the WP:RM process rather than doing it unilaterally. Thanks. Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:06, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

PS:I won't revert you again because I accept that it is a marginal case either way. But please learn the proper processes here, for discussion and consensus building with other editors, rather than unilateral action in cases like this where there is the possibility of any disagreement. You are apparently a new editor here, and it would help you if you read some of the material in the welcome message up above. Tread carefully. Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:33, 2 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hello PrachtAl,

It seems to me that an article you worked on, Second Hand (band), may be copied from http://crotchbat.blogspot.com/2007/04/second-hand-reality-1969.html. It's entirely possible that I made a mistake, but I wanted to let you know because Wikipedia is strict about copying from other sites.

It's important that you edit the article and rewrite it in your own words, unless you're absolutely certain nothing in it is copied. If you're not sure how to fix the problem or have any questions, there are people at the help desk who are happy to assist you.

Thank you for helping build a free encyclopedia! MadmanBot (talk) 19:57, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! I see that you created an article, Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Growers of Mushroom, but didn't submit it to be included in the encyclopedia. Did you intend to? —Anne Delong (talk) 03:58, 15 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Growers of Mushroom, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Heavy metal and Decca (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi there, I'm HasteurBot. I just wanted to let you know that Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Dream of the West, a page you created, has not been edited in 6 months. The Articles for Creation space is not an indefinite storage location for content that is not appropriate for articlespace.

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

If the deletion has already occured, instructions on how you may be able to retrieve it are available at WP:REFUND/G13.

Thank you for your attention. HasteurBot (talk) 02:07, 1 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hello PrachtAl. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Dream of the West".

The page will shortly be deleted. If you plan on editing the page to address the issues raised when it was declined and resubmit it, simply edit the submission and remove the {{db-afc}} or {{db-g13}} code. Please note that Articles for Creation is not for indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace.

If your submission has already been deleted by the time you get there, and you want to retrieve it, copy this code: {{subst:Refund/G13|Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Dream of the West}}, paste it in the edit box at this link, click "Save page", and an administrator will in most cases undelete the submission.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. HasteurBot (talk) 14:00, 31 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
