Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- Contributing to Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Simplified Manual of Style
- Task Center – need some ideas of what kind of things need doing? Go here.
Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia:
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- Take particular care while adding biographical material about a living person to any Wikipedia page and follow Wikipedia's Biography of Living Persons policy. Particularly, controversial and negative statements should be referenced with multiple reliable sources.
- No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- Do not add troublesome content to any article, such as: copyrighted text, libel, advertising or promotional messages, and text that is not related to an article's subject; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!

You currently appear to be engaged in an
edit war. This means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be although other editors disagree. Users are expected to
collaborate with others, to avoid editing
disruptively, and to
try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.
Points to note:
- Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
- Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.
If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Bon courage ( talk) 07:21, 28 December 2022 (UTC)

16:29, 28 December 2022 (UTC)Hi Ahmet,
I don't know you, but just wanted to let you know that I think your comments here were spot on. It's a disgrace that your edits were undone, and you were overruled by a bunch of people who clearly are more set on promoting their own ideas/feelings than adhering to the goal of Wikipedia of being an independent, neutral, trustworthy source of information.
In my view, the only reason why your edits were removed, and you got blocked from editing, is that you went in on your own (in good faith) and were outnumbered. Apparently, to fix some of Wikipedia's pages, we need to collaborate. If a group of enough people that want to improve Wikipedia decides which pages to edit and works together, then we can change it. Looking at some of the pages where this same group prevent fixing "error-laden" information, it looks like they're with about 3 to 5 people. If we have a group of about 10 people, we can overrule them.
I realise that you won't be able to edit pages under this account, but you as a person could help if you're interested.
