There are many ways you can contribute to Wikipedia. Here are a few ideas:

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.
Speedy deletion nomination of Category:2021 book adaptations
edit
A tag has been placed on Category:2021 book adaptations indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself. Liz Read!

- It was a mistake to create the page actually, since there was already a category that was similar. Wallglobemat (talkand contribs) 15:56, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
Tagging pages for speedy deletion
editHello, Wallglobemat,
Before tagging any more pages for speedy deletion, please review Criteria for Speedy Deletion so you know what the criteria are, when they apply and to what name space they apply. For example, there are quite a few CSD criteria that apply just to articles but not to drafts.
You might also find Twinkle to be a helpful program. If you use it to tag pages, it will show you what the possible criteria are for that page and also post a notice to the talk page of the page creator which is an important step in the deletion process. Set up your Preferences to "Notify page creator" for this to always occur.
If you have questions about the deletion process or editing on Wikipedia, please visit the Teahouse. I found it very helpful when I was a new editor. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 20:49, 15 June 2021 (UTC) I already have Twinkle. I also read WP:CSD but did not find any mentions of autobiographies.Wallglobemat (talkand contribs) 20:55, 15 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I PRODded this disambiguation page a week ago and it was deleted just now. Sorry for not notifying you; I wrongly assumed, without checking, that it was Pyramids09 who had created the page since they were the one who had notified me about it on my own talk page, hence why I unchecked "Notify page creator" in Twinkle. Anyway, in a nutshell, it was decided that the page was unnecessary since it only linked between two pages, and only going in one direction. Ionmars10 (talk) 01:09, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
- Ionmars10 It is fine! Don’t be stressed about it, I accept your apology!
Have a nice day and thank you for your kindness! Pyramids09 (talk) 01:11, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
- Ionmars10 Oh wait this isn’t for me isn’t it? Pyramids09 (talk) 01:15, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
- It's for both of you, I suppose. Ionmars10 (talk) 01:18, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
- Ionmars10 Huh, Ok. Pyramids09 (talk) 01:19, 18 June 2021 (UTC)
