Wikipedia is not a dating service. Anyways, you are a minor. Requesting this is insanely harmful. 🫀 Crash // Organhaver (talk to me, maybe?) 04:31, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @~2025-31421-40, this really isn’t a platform for dating or socialising. We’re just here to work on the encyclopaedia. Please see Wikipedia:Guidance for younger editors. ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · email · global) 06:01, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

ik but ppl keep messaging me on other accounts and i figued that i should make a way so that it dosent get in the way of other editors convorsations so that they can keep doing whatever it was that they were doing ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:06, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

and why’d you say “dating”? And do you think you could help me figure out why my edits keep geting taken down? ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:09, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits that were reverted were mostly social chatting, which, again, is not the purpose of Wikipedia. You also added content to Foxes (disambiguation) but disambiguation pages are only for pointing to the different articles that have similar names.There are a lot of complex rules and procedures involved in editing Wikipedia. Contributing to Wikipedia is a good way to start learning about how we do things here. ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · email · global) 06:28, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

ok but why’d you say “dating”? Thats where im confused.

can you guys see all of my previous convorsations?! ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:39, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Let me try to be very clear: this is not a messaging app, this is a public encyclopaedia where almost everything you write here can be seen by anybody.If what you said to Rafael was a joke, please don’t make jokes here. If it was not a joke, then it was totally inappropriate content for Wikipedia, as @Organhaver said. ClaudineChionh (she/her · talk · email · global) 06:45, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

dude it was a joke no need to be so harsh and im new to editing and still learning the rules when can a girl catch a break?! omg chiiiiill ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:49, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, it looked like an invitation to predators and we take such matters extremely seriously here. If you do want to contribute to the encyclopaedia, just slow down and read some of the help pages that have been shown to you, so that you have a better understanding of what content and behaviour are appropriate here.

i have read all that stuff and am trying to figure out why the link for the project creation was deleted i was about to make a project on foxes ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:58, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

reading all that takes forever btw ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:59, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

cut me some slack! ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 06:49, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You have been given plenty of slack. If you make it so that the only way to keep you safe is to block you from editing then that will be done. Do NOT reveal personal information. Cabayi (talk) 10:15, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

that wasnt ment for you it was meant for Claudine Choinh ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 13:20, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

now im genuenly curious.are you like admin or something or can anyone block someone ~2025-31421-40 (talk) 13:25, 7 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cabayi is one of the Wikipedia:Administrators, which means they can block your temporary account (and also prevent you from creating a new one, though we don’t usually make that permanent).

Claudine is and ordinary editor who is trying to keep you safe by giving you advice about what’s appropriate to post on the internet, and more specifically on Wikipedia. Anybody with an internet connection can read what you post on Wikipedia. That’s “anybody”, meaning abusers and criminals, too. Therefore, to keep yourself safe, please don’t post anything about yourself, your appearance, your family, your location, your school, or anything else that might let a predator find you on another website or in the real world.

One thing that might not be obvious to you is that everyone you’re talking to is a lot older than you. Several of us have been editing Wikipedia since before you were born. Most editors are two or three times your age, and some of us (including me) are old enough to be your grandmother. More than half of Wikipedia editors are also men. You are welcome to edit articles, but please don’t try “make friends” here, especially with the middle-aged men, who will understandably be freaked out by an underage girl contacting them to “be friends”.

If you wanted a task that I think is usually fun, find articles with zero or just one picture. Open the article in the visual editor and choose Insert > Images and media. Search for the name of the article and see if there is anything good to add.

For example, click on https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Hoary_fox&veaction=edit to open that article in the visual editor. Open the Images and media dialog box, and put in the name (“Hoary fox” or any of the scientific names). See if there’s an image that looks good, is definitely that fox (click “More information” to see if the scientific name on the image matches what the article says), and isn’t like the others in the article. Add that image with a short caption (it sometimes suggests captions, but they’re usually pretty bad). For example, if you find a picture of baby fox, then you could have a caption of “Young fox kits”, or if you add one of a historical drawing by Alice Artist, then you could say that it’s an “1880 drawing by Alice Artist”, or if it’s a drawing of a skull for that kind of fox, then say “Drawing of a skull”.

You can also search for images directly at Commons (Wikipedia’s shared image site). Another way that usually works is to scroll to the end of the Wikipedia article and see whether there is a link to a Commons category with images (example in that article). Click the link and see if you like any of the images. If you do, copy some/all of the image title, and search for exactly that one in the visual editor’s image search.
