- 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 at 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, Julietdeltalima (talk) 16:54, 5 January 2023 (UTC)

editPlease do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in UK Joint Expeditionary Force. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Please read WP:ENGVAR. This article is about a UK subject, and not written in American. - David Biddulph (talk) 15:37, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
Please stop. If you continue to add unsourced or poorly sourced content, as you did at Bull Terrier, you may be blocked from editing. What is your source for this information? Do you realize that it is written in a highly inappropriate unencyclopedic style? Julietdeltalima (talk) 16:53, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
- Sorry! learning all of this still.
- I'm guessing personal source (being an owner) doesn't count, ill try to find the books / articles I know that information from to cite them right? Naliao (talk) 17:06, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
National varieties of English
editHello. In a recent edit to the page Adelaide United FC, you changed one or more words or styles from one national variety of English to another. Because Wikipedia has readers from all over the world, our policy is to respect national varieties of English in Wikipedia articles.
For a subject exclusively related to the United Kingdom (for example, a famous British person), use British English. For something related to the United States in the same way, use American English. For something related to another English-speaking country, such as Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, India, or Pakistan use the variety of English used there. For an international topic, use the form of English that the original author of the article used.
In view of that, please don't change articles from one version of English to another, even if you don't normally use the version in which the article is written. Respect other people's versions of English. They, in turn, should respect yours. Other general guidelines on how Wikipedia articles are written can be found in the Manual of Style. If you have any questions about this, you can ask me on my talk page or visit the help desk. Please, please stop making these spelling changes. Do you understand now that people in Commonwealth countries spell many words differently than people in the U.S., and both variations are correct depending on the subject matter of the article? Commonwealth spelling ("rumour" versus "rumor", for example) is entirely correct and appropriate in articles about Australian subjects. Julietdeltalima (talk) 16:59, 5 January 2023 (UTC)
