Welcome to my talk page! I'm in a pretty busy time of my life right now (yes I'm an actual person), so if you’re a newcomer with a question about editing, you can try the Teahouse for a faster answer. I archive my talk page pretty regularly, so if you're wondering where a recent conversation went, check the links in the archive box. Feel free to drop me a message and I'll get back to ya when I can! :)

Welcome to Phase 2 of the January–February 2026 NPP drive. During Phase 1, we reviewed 16,658 articles and 4,416 redirects, and there is currently a backlog of 16,475 articles and 23,782 redirects in the queue. Fantastic job! Completing 22,502 patrols in the first phase made a significant dent in the backlog. Let's keep our foot on the gas for Phase 2, and I hope we can achieve even more reviews than Phase 1. Best of luck!

hello!!! im back with a new q :) what is the process for creating a new wiki ? there is a new documentary series about America's Next Top Model and I noticed there is yet to be a dedicated article for that! it premieres feb 16th so do i need to wait until the series comes out? any tips for how to write a new pg would be greatly appreciated <3 and lmk if you're too busy atm and i should ask teahouse !! tytyty Spindella000 (talk) 21:45, 2 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Well hello there again, Spindella! Creating a new article is challenging for newcomers because it involves knowing all the most important Wikipedia article policies, so I usually advise newcomers to get used to those by editing existing articles first. That being said, if you want to give it a try, here's what you'll need to be most familiar with:

• You need to understand notability, Wikipedia's inclusion guideline. Generally, you should be able to find significant coverage [of the subject] in multiple independent reliable sources (follow the links for fuller explanations of each of those).
• Make sure that the article is verifiable – you should make sure there's a source backing up what the article states (but use an encyclopedic style; don't copy, of course!)
• Keep a neutral point of view in the article text.

If you scroll up on this page, you'll see an excellent different explanation of the same ideas by qcne, in case a different phrasing is helpful instead :)

If you've found that the references exist, you'll then want to make sure you're writing the article forwards: read the sources and summarize what they say, rather than trying to write stuff you know and then finding a source to fit it. You can then use the Your First Article help page for a step-by-step technical guide.

Do let me know if you have any more questions, and happy editing! Perfect4th (talk) 00:13, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

very fair and duly noted boss ! i read thru the above and ya.....sounds like that would be a bit more than I can handle atm. much appreciated nonetheless :) Spindella000 (talk) 19:52, 3 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

It is a good deal, but the good news is you can pick a lot of it up just by paying attention to & editing existing articles as you go along :) Good to see you again and happy editing! Perfect4th (talk) 16:06, 4 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

How can I put images --Idkwhyimhereufc (talk) 05:34, 19 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Idkwhyimhereufc, and welcome! Help:Images explains how to use images on Wikipedia. If you plan to upload an image, make sure it complies with the WP:Image use policy, especially copyright-wise. Let me know if you have any further questions! Perfect4th (talk) 03:51, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

thanks bro appreciate it gang Idkwhyimhereufc (talk) 03:52, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

how do I edit --Ryanhuitop (talk) 17:04, 20 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Ryanhuitop, and welcome! Help:Editing explains the basics, though it seems you've discovered some of those already; I'll place a welcome message with more links on your talk page as well. Let me know if you have any specific editing questions I can help out with! Perfect4th (talk) 18:57, 21 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, on my recent edits is there any formatting or wording or otherwise which I could possibly improve on? Thank you! --Orangedropbear (talk) 01:28, 28 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Orangedropbear, and welcome! I skimmed a few of your most recent edits and didn't find any major items that needed fixing. This small copyedit was definitely needed. You might want to slow down a little on linking – linking 'album' here probably wasn't necessary, as we generally don't link words most readers will understand in the context of the article. Was there anything more specific I could provide feedback on?

Let me know if you have any more questions, and happy editing! Perfect4th (talk) 01:28, 29 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Hey Perfect4th thanks for replying, I saw other albums that had the link to 'album' so I thought I would do the same, but thanks for the feedback. At the moment I don't really have any more questions but I'll definitely let you know! Cheers. Orangedropbear (talk) 02:12, 29 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]

Of course! And no worries, you're far from the first. Feel free to drop on by if you do ever have any more questions! Perfect4th (talk) 02:20, 29 March 2026 (UTC)[reply]
