- Don't be afraid to edit! Just find something that can be improved and make it better. Other editors will help fix any mistakes you make.
- It's normal to feel a little overwhelmed, but don't worry if you don't understand everything at first—it's fine to edit using common sense.
- If an edit you make is reverted, you can discuss the issue on the article's talk page. Be civil, and don't restore the edit unless there is consensus.
- Always use edit summaries to explain your changes.
- When adding new content to an article, always include a citation to a reliable source.
- If you wish to edit about a subject with which you are affiliated, read our conflict of interest guide and disclose your connection.
- Have fun! Your presence in the Wikipedia community is welcome.
Happy editing! Cheers, MediaKyle (talk) 16:15, 4 September 2025 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Donald Albury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Sahara, but you didn't provide a reliable source. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation, your edit is archived in the page history. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Hello, ChaoticVermillion
Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Pppery, and I thank you for your contributions.
I wanted to let you know, however, that I've proposed an article that you started, European people (disambiguation), for deletion because it meets one or more of our deletion criteria, and I don't think that it is suitable for inclusion in the encyclopedia. The particular issue can be found in the notice that is now visible at the top of the article.
If you wish to contest the deletion:
- Edit the page
- Remove the text that looks like this:
{{proposed deletion/dated...}} - Click the button.
If you object to the article's deletion, please remember to explain why you think the article should be kept on the article's talk page and improve the page to address the issues raised in the deletion notice. Otherwise, it may be deleted later by other means.
If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Pppery}}. And remember to sign your reply with ~~~~. Thanks!

editChaoticVermillion, could you please mark all your other alt accounts by linking them on their userpages to this one? See instructions at WP:ALTNOTIFY. Thanks. Isabelle Belato 🏳🌈 10:39, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
- I don't have any other alt accounts though, the ones with a different number of l's were created by my brother to troll me. ChaoticVermillion (talk) 10:56, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
- Just to confirm, you are stating that User:ChaoticVermilion and User:ChaoticVermilllion were created by your brother to troll you. If that is the case, then they will be blocked as misleading names. Donald Albury 15:20, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
- Yes ChaoticVermillion (talk) 15:38, 30 September 2025 (UTC)
- I have blocked ChaoticVermilllion. In the meantime, ChaoticVermilion has changed their username to User:ChaoticCerulean. I will ask again, what is your relationship to ChaoticCerulean? Before you answer, I suggest that you read the essay at Wikipedia:My little brother did it. Donald Albury 17:08, 30 September 2025 (UTC)

A pie for you!
edit| Hello,
Saw you made a proposal at vital articles level 1. Thought I'd drop by with some metaphorical pie, and let you know that you should vote in your own proposal. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 18:03, 15 October 2025 (UTC) |
Working on the geography page has been a passion project of mine for a few years, but I've been taking a break. If you need any help or sources for human geography, let me know! I got Technical geography to GA status earlier this year, and my long term goal is to get Human geography, Physical geography, and Geography to GA status. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 04:37, 4 November 2025 (UTC)
- I might work on the geography page soon, after I finish my schoolwork. ChaoticVermillion (converse, contribs) 09:14, 4 November 2025 (UTC)
- Sounds good! I have some plans to dive into it as well. Maybe we can get it nominated as a GA by end of year. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 22:00, 5 November 2025 (UTC)

Welcome, and thank you for your attempt to lighten up Wikipedia. However, this is an encyclopedia, and articles are intended to be serious, so please don't make joke edits, as you did to Earth. Readers looking for accurate information will not find them amusing. If you'd like to experiment with editing, please use your sandbox instead, where you are given a certain degree of freedom in what you write. Belbury (talk) 12:36, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
