Welcome to Wikipedia!

 Welcome BryceM2001!
Hello BryceM2001. Welcome to Wikipedia and thank you for your contributions!

I'm Jauerback, one of the other editors here, and I hope you decide to stay and help contribute to this amazing repository of knowledge.

Some pages of helpful information to get you started:
    Introduction to Wikipedia
    The five pillars of Wikipedia
    Editing tutorial
    How to edit a page
    Simplified Manual of Style
    The basics of Wikicode
    How to develop an article
    How to create an article
    Help pages
    What Wikipedia is not
Some common sense Dos and Don'ts:
    Do be bold
    Do assume good faith
    Do be civil
    Do keep cool!
    Do maintain a neutral point of view
    Don't spam
    Don't infringe copyright
    Don't edit where you have a conflict of interest
    Don't commit vandalism
    Don't get blocked
If you need further help, you can:
    Ask a question
or you can:
    Get help at the Teahouse
or even:
    Ask an experienced editor to "adopt" you

Alternatively, leave me a message at my talk page or type {{Help me}} 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
    Help design new templates
    Subscribe and contribute to The Signpost
    Translate articles from Wikipedias in other languages

To get some practice editing you can use a sandbox. You can create your own personal sandbox for use any time. It's perfect for working on bigger projects. Then for easy access in the future, you can put {{My sandbox}} on your userpage.

Please 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 your talk page, and a timestamp.
  • Leave descriptive edit summaries for your edits. Doing so helps other editors understand what changes you have made and why you made them.
The best way to learn about something is to experience it. Explore, learn, contribute, and don't forget to have some fun!

Tip

Hi and welcome. After seeing your report at WP:ANI, I think you might find Wikipedia:Requests for administrator attention useful as it explains the best venue to use for reporting various types of problems.

I also wanted to point out that when making a report, you should provide links to the edit(s) that validate what you're stating. Always be able to support any claim that you make against another editor. For example, you said TraceNothing "keeps pinging me and tells me to go somewhere else" TraceNothing made 5 edits and didn't ping you or tell you to go somewhere else in any of them. Don't overstate behavior or characterize other editors ("now being ignorant") when making a complaint. Hope that helps! Schazjmd (talk) 16:59, 3 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Telecable of SC was the former name of TCI in South Carolina before it became Spectrum. Thanks for noting this! The source is from https://www.goupstate.com/story/news/1988/09/01/telecable-may-build-local-origination-station/29503640007/ BryceM2001 (talk) 13:00, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Trouted

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.

I just closed Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Norges-la-Ville as keep, and Geschichte seemed to think this treatment was in order for you due to your nomination. I am personally neutral about if such treatment is warranted. JJPMaster (she/they) 17:10, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
