It is not uncommon for editors to disagree about the way forward. That is when <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Discussion" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Discussion">discussion</a> and attempts to reach <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Consensus" title="Wikipedia:Consensus">consensus</a> should take place. Every article on Wikipedia has a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Talk_pages" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Talk pages">talk page</a>, reached by clicking the <samp>Talk</samp> tab just above the title (for example, <a href="/wiki/Talk:Evolution" title="Talk:Evolution">Talk:Evolution</a>). There, editors can discuss improvements to the content of an article. You can participate too! If you ever make a change that gets <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Reverting" title="Wikipedia:Reverting">reverted</a> by another editor, discuss the change on the talk page! The <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BOLD,_revert,_discuss_cycle" title="Wikipedia:BOLD, revert, discuss cycle">BOLD, revert, discuss cycle</a> is a popular method of reaching consensus and may be useful for identifying objections, keeping discussion moving forward and helping to break deadlocks. Some editors will see any reversion as a challenge, so be considerate and patient. While discussing matters, it is very important that you conduct yourself with <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Civility" title="Wikipedia:Civility">civility</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AGF" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AGF">assume good faith</a> on the part of others. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Edit_warring" title="Wikipedia:Edit warring">Edit warring</a> (repeatedly overriding or reimplementing contributions) is highly discouraged. There is a bright-line rule called the <i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:3RR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:3RR">three-revert rule</a></i>, the violation of which may lead someone to be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BLOCK" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BLOCK">blocked</a> from editing to prevent further disruption. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:DISRUPTSIGNS" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:DISRUPTSIGNS">Disruptive editing</a> is not always intentional, as new editors may simply not understand <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Here_to_build_an_encyclopedia" title="Wikipedia:Here to build an encyclopedia">the ins and outs of Wikipedia</a>. </p><p>Most other <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Namespace" title="Wikipedia:Namespace">types of pages</a> on Wikipedia also have associated talk pages, including the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:User_page" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:User page">user page</a> each editor is assigned once they sign up. When other editors need to contact you, they will usually do this by leaving a message on <a href="/wiki/Special:MyTalk" title="Special:MyTalk">your user <i>talk</i> page</a>. When someone has left you a message that way, you will see a notice the next time you log in or view a page on Wikipedia. </p><p>There are many other types of discussions that take place on Wikipedia. For example: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion" title="Wikipedia:Articles for deletion">Articles for deletion</a> is where editors discuss whether or not an article should be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_policy" title="Wikipedia:Deletion policy">deleted</a> (or kept, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Merging" title="Wikipedia:Merging">merged</a> or <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Redirect" title="Wikipedia:Redirect">redirected</a> to another article, etc.); <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_move" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Requested move">requested moves</a> is the launching point for debating the retitling of pages; and the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump" title="Wikipedia:Village pump">village pump</a> is a centralized area for discussion where editors debate various aspects of the encyclopedia project, such as <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)" title="Wikipedia:Village pump (proposals)">proposals for new features</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)" title="Wikipedia:Village pump (policy)">policy changes</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Village_pump_(technical)"

of thousands of editors' contributions, each one bringing something different to the table, whether it be: researching skills, technical expertise, writing prowess or tidbits of information, but most importantly a willingness to help. <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:OWN" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:OWN">Nobody owns articles</a>, so if you see a problem that you can fix, do so. Everyone is encouraged to <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_copyedit" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:How to copyedit">copyedit articles</a>, add content and create new articles if they have knowledge about the topic at hand or are willing to do the necessary research to improve it. Although you should use a broad vocabulary of regular, non-technical terms, do not use words or expressions that many readers may not know. If an article is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Make_technical_articles_understandable" title="Wikipedia:Make technical articles understandable">written in a highly technical manner</a>, but the material permits a more understandable explanation, then editors are strongly recommended to rewrite it. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Article_development_and_content_protocols" data-mw-thread-id="h-Article_development_and_content_protocols-The_basics_of_contributing"><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Article_development_and_content_protocols-The_basics_of_contributing"></span>Article development and content protocols<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Article_development_and_content_protocols-The_basics_of_contributing"></span></h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main pages: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_development" title="Wikipedia:Article development">Wikipedia:Article development</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Core_content_policies" title="Wikipedia:Core content policies">Wikipedia:Core content policies</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">See also: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Writing_better_articles" title="Wikipedia:Writing better articles">Wikipedia:Writing better articles</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Basic_copyediting" title="Wikipedia:Basic copyediting">Wikipedia:Basic copyediting</a></div> <p>Articles make up the bulk of Wikipedia's <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MAINSPACE" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MAINSPACE">mainspace</a>.

Ideally, all information should be <i><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:REFB" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:REFB">cited</a></i> to reliable sources and to evidence that is verifiable.

Sourcing requirements are significantly stricter in such <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:BLP" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:BLP">articles on living persons</a>. Please note though that we strongly discourage people from writing about themselves, their friends, bands, websites, companies or organizations, pet projects, personal vendettas, campaigns and any other topic in which they have a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:COI" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:COI">conflict of interest</a>. </p> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/52/Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf"><img resource="/wiki/File:Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf" src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf/page1-170px-Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf.jpg" decoding="async" width="170" height="243" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf/page1-255px-Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/52/Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf/page1-340px-Evaluating_Wikipedia_brochure.pdf.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1050" data-file-height="1500"/></a><figcaption>A brochure in PDF form by the Wikimedia Foundation about how articles evolve, elements of good quality articles, and signs of poor quality articles</figcaption></figure> <p>The quality of Wikipedia articles varies widely; many are very good, but some lack depth and clarity, contain bias or are out of date.

Wikipedia uses two methods of editing: classic editing through <a href="/wiki/Help:Wiki_markup" class="mw-redirect" title="Help:Wiki markup">wiki markup</a> (wikitext) and through a newer <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor">VisualEditor</a> (VE). </p><p><b>Wiki markup editing</b> is chosen by clicking the <samp>Edit</samp> tab at the top of a Wikipedia page (or on a <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Section" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Section">section-edit link</a> – if these links are missing, click the <samp>Edit</samp> tab and remove the code <code>__NOEDITSECTION__</code>). This will take you to a new page with a text box containing the editable text of the page you were viewing. In this box, you can type in the text that you want to add, using wiki markup to format the text and add other elements like images and tables. You should then press the <samp>Show preview</samp> button to review your contributions for any errors. When you have finished editing, you should write a short <a href="/wiki/Help:Edit_summary" title="Help:Edit summary">edit summary</a> in the small field below the edit box describing your changes before you press the <samp>Publish changes</samp> button. This will help others to understand the intention of your edit. To avoid accidentally leaving edit summaries blank, you can select "Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary" on the <samp>Editing</samp> tab of your <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences" title="Special:Preferences">personal preferences</a>. </p><p>The <b>VisualEditor</b> option is intended as a user-friendly, <a href="/wiki/WYSIWYG" title="WYSIWYG">"What You See Is What You Get"</a> (WYSIWYG) editor, allowing one to edit pages without the need to learn wikitext markup. Logged-in users can opt in through <a href="/wiki/Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-betafeatures" title="Special:Preferences">personal preferences</a>, see the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User_guide" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:VisualEditor/User guide">VisualEditor user guide</a> for more information.

This is done by clicking on the <samp>Move</samp> tab at the top of the page (you need to be registered and an <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:AUTOCONFIRM" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:AUTOCONFIRM">'autoconfirmed'</a> user to be able to do this). Before you do so, please carefully review <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Moving_a_page#Before_moving_a_page" title="Wikipedia:Moving a page">this checklist of things to consider before a page move</a>. The main principles for choosing an article title are described at <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Article_titles" title="Wikipedia:Article titles">Wikipedia:Article titles</a>. Do not move or rename a page by copying and pasting its content to a different title. Doing so fragments the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Edit_history" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Edit history">edit history</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Copying_within_Wikipedia" title="Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia">Wikipedia's copyright licenses</a> requires attribution of all contributors. You may not always be able to move a page yourself and should refrain from doing so even if there is no technical impediment, where the rename would be considered controversial and thus should be discussed first. Technical limitations restricting direct moves include where the page is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MOVP" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MOVP">move protected</a>, the target page is at a title <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:SALT" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:SALT">protected from creation</a>, or already exists and cannot be <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:MOR" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:MOR">moved over a redirect</a>. In such cases, and to list potentially controversial moves for discussion, please see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_moves" title="Wikipedia:Requested moves">Wikipedia:Requested moves</a> for more information. </p><p>While almost anyone can edit and move articles, to keep things manageable, only <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators" title="Wikipedia:Administrators">administrators</a> can delete them. Note that removing all text from a page does not delete it, it just leaves a blank page, which is discouraged as it is confusing to readers. For all the gritty details, see the <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Deletion_policy" title="Wikipedia:Deletion policy">deletion policy</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_delete_a_page" title="Wikipedia:How to delete a page">how to delete a page</a>. Please remember that the deletion process is about the appropriateness of the article for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:NOTEVERYTHING" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:NOTEVERYTHING">inclusion in Wikipedia</a>. Therefore, please do not take it personally if an article you've contributed to or created is <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:How_to_save_an_article_proposed_for_deletion" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:How to save an article proposed for deletion">currently nominated for deletion</a> or is already deleted. For the reasons why and the options available for <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Viewing_and_restoring_deleted_pages" title="Wikipedia:Viewing and restoring deleted pages">retrieving data from deleted articles</a>, see <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Why_was_the_page_I_created_deleted%3F" title="Wikipedia:Why was the page I created deleted?">why was the page I created deleted?</a> If the page is in <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:User_pages" title="Wikipedia:User pages">your own user space</a> (for example, starts with "User:YourName/" or "User talk:YourName/"), then you can request immediate deletion of the page at any time. Simply edit the page while logged in and put the template <code>{{db-u1}}</code> at the top of the page. An administrator will see that you added the template to a page in your user or user talk namespace and will delete it in most cases. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Images,_sounds,_and_videos" data-mw-thread-id="h-Images,_sounds,_and_videos-The_basics_of_contributing"><span id="Images.2C_sounds.2C_and_videos"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Images,_sounds,_and_videos-The_basics_of_contributing"></span>Images, sounds, and videos<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Images,_sounds,_and_videos-The_basics_of_contributing"></span></h3></div> <dl><dd><i> Overview: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Image_dos_and_don%27ts" title="Wikipedia:Image dos and don'ts">Wikipedia:Image dos and don'ts</a></i></dd> <dd><i> How to pages: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Media_help" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Media help">Wikipedia:Media help</a> and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Picture_tutorial" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Picture tutorial">Wikipedia:Picture tutorial</a></i></dd> <dd><i> Introductions: <a href="/wiki/Help:Introduction_to_uploading_images/1" class="mw-redirect" title="Help:Introduction to uploading images/1">Help:Introduction uploading images</a> and <a href="/wiki/Help:Introduction_to_images_(VE)/1" class="mw-redirect" title="Help:Introduction to images (VE)/1">Help:Introduction to images (VisualEditor)</a></i></dd> <dd><i> See also: <a href="/wiki/Help:Sound_file_markup" title="Help:Sound file markup">Help:Visual file markup</a></i></dd></dl> <figure class="mw-default-size" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><span><video id="mwe_player_8" poster="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/5/59/Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm/170px--Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm.jpg" controls="" preload="none" data-mw-tmh="" class="mw-file-element" width="170" height="136" data-durationhint="180" data-mwtitle="Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm" data-mwprovider="wikimediacommons" resource="/wiki/File:Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm"><source src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/transcoded/5/59/Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm/Editing_basics_-_Uploading_and_adding_images.webm.480p.vp9.webm" type="video/webm;

href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject">WikiProjects</a> are social groups of contributors (anyone may join them), who work together as a team to improve Wikipedia. These groups often focus on a specific topic area (for example, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_History" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Women's History">women's history</a>) or a specific kind of task (for example, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:New_pages_patrol" title="Wikipedia:New pages patrol">checking newly created pages</a>). WikiProjects function as a central hub for editor collaboration and the organization of specific topics. Many large WikiProjects have collected some <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Advice_pages" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Advice pages">advice about how to apply Wikipedia's policies, guidelines, and essays</a> to their specific subject area (for example, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Military_history/Notability_guide" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Military history/Notability guide">military history notability guide</a>). The English Wikipedia currently has over <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Council/Directory" title="Wikipedia:WikiProject Council/Directory">2,000 WikiProjects</a> and they all have a variety of tasks to get done (for example, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Canadian_wikipedians%27_notice_board/Articles_to_improve" class="mw-redirect" title="Wikipedia:Canadian wikipedians' notice board/Articles to improve">Canadian articles to improve</a>). </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2 ext-discussiontools-init-section"><h2 id="Maintenance_tasks,_news,_and_discussions" data-mw-thread-id="h-Maintenance_tasks,_news,_and_discussions"><span id="Maintenance_tasks.2C_news.2C_and_discussions"></span><span data-mw-comment-start="" id="h-Maintenance_tasks,_news,_and_discussions"></span>Maintenance tasks, news, and discussions<span data-mw-comment-end="h-Maintenance_tasks,_news,_and_discussions"></span></h2></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main pages: <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Dashboard" title="Wikipedia:Dashboard">Wikipedia:Dashboard</a>, <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Maintenance" title="Wikipedia:Maintenance">Wikipedia:Maintenance</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Task_Center" title="Wikipedia:Task Center">Wikipedia:Task Center</a></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1246091330"><table class="sidebar nomobile nowraplinks wikitable plainlinks" style="width:auto"><tbody><tr><th class="sidebar-heading" style="background:#E9E9E9;padding:0.1em 0;font-size:95%;"> <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Maintenance#Things_to_watch_out_for" title="Wikipedia:Maintenance">Things to review</a></th></tr><tr><td class="sidebar-content" style="font-size:85%;padding-top:0.2em;line-height:1.6em;"> <ul><li><a class="external text" href="https://tools.wmflabs.org/copypatrol/en">Copyvios'</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Special:NewPagesFeed" title="Special:NewPagesFeed">New pages</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Special:NewFiles" title="Special:NewFiles">New files</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Special:RecentChanges" title="Special:RecentChanges">Recent edits</a></li> <li><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&contribs=newbie">New editors</a></li> <li><a class="external text" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:RecentChanges&userExpLevel=unregistered">IP's edits</a></li> <li><a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Dashboard" title="Wikipedia:Dashboard">Discussions</a></li></ul></td> </tr></tbody></table> <p>The <a href="/wiki/Wikipedia:Community_portal" title="Wikipedia:Community portal">community portal</a> is a central location to find (and list) collaborations, tasks, and news about the English Wikipedia.
