Hello, Υφ22, and welcome to Misplaced Pages! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like this place and decide to stay.



Why can't I edit some particular pages? Some pages that have been vandalized repeatedly are semi-protected, meaning that editing by new or unregistered users is prohibited through technical measures. If you have an account that is four days old and has made at least 10 edits, then you can bypass semi-protection and edit any semi-protected page. Some pages, such as highly visible templates, are fully-protected, meaning that only administrators can edit them. If this is not the case, you may have been blocked or your IP address caught up in a range block. Where can I experiment with editing Misplaced Pages? Use the main sandbox or create your own personal sandbox to experiment. How do I create an article? See how to create your first article, then use the Article Wizard to create one, and add references to the article as explained below. How do I create citations?
  1. Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Misplaced Pages article that you want to create a citation for.
  2. Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
  3. In a new tab/window, go to the citation generator, click on the 'An arbitrary website' bubble, and fill out as many fields as you can about the website you just found.
  4. Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
  5. Highlight, and then copy (Ctrl+C or Apple+C), the resulting text (it will be something like <ref> {{cite web | .... }}</ref>, copy the whole thing).
  6. In the Misplaced Pages article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
  7. If the article does not have a References or Notes section (or the like), add this to the bottom of the page, but above the External Links section and the categories:
==References==
{{Reflist}}
What is a WikiProject, and how do I join one? A WikiProject is a group of editors that are interested in improving the coverage of certain topics on Misplaced Pages. (See this page for a complete list of WikiProjects.) If you would like to help, add your username to the list that is on the bottom of the WikiProject page.

Information icon Hi Υφ22! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Science in the medieval Islamic world that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Misplaced Pages—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you. ☿ Apaugasma (talk ☉) 14:30, 4 April 2023 (UTC)

Ok thank you, Actually I just figured this out. “A minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute.” Υφ22 (talk) 13:07, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Redirect target changed

Hi @Υφ22, just to give you a heads up, I saw that you changed the redirect target on the page Dead language from Extinct language to Language death. However I disagree with this target change because the former made more sense to me, so I have changed it back to it. But if you disagree with me on this, you can freely open a discussion at redirects for discussion to seek community consensus. Thanks. ❯❯❯ Raydann 07:36, 9 April 2023 (UTC)
