If you need help, check out Wikipedia's page for questions. You can also ask me by visiting my user talk page and leaving a message, or you can ask your question on this page by editing it and placing {{Help me}} before your question. Please make sure that you sign your messages on discussion pages, which is done by entering four tildes (~~~~) at the very end of it; this will automatically insert your username and the date. I also highly recommend that you review the advice for students page.

Before you create an article, make sure that you understand what kind of articles are accepted here. Remember: Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and while many topics are encyclopedic, some things are not.

Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, and if your class doesn't already have one, please tell your instructor about creating one. It is highly recommended that you place this text: {{Educational assignment}} on the talk page of any articles you are working on as part of your Wikipedia-related course assignment. This will let other editors know that the article is a subject of an educational assignment as well as aid your communication with them.

Here are some more pages that you might find helpful:

Wikitext tutorial (if you're choosing to edit pages using the Wikitext source code instead of the VisualEditor)

While editing:

Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
Be bold, but 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.
Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
No edit warring or abuse of multiple accounts.
Provide reliable sources to the content you add. If you are adding biomedical information, please follow this guideline.
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.
If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay with us as a member of the community - even after your assignment is finished. Your time, energy, and your contributions will be highly valued and appreciated among us.

Please do not use large language models to generate content for Wikipedia, your edit to Cat added a reference to a non-existent journal article and was utterly bogus. Traumnovelle (talk) 02:19, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Traumnovelle Can you take a second look? See https://www.science.org/content/article/news-glance-long-lasting-hiv-prevention-new-neutrino-detector-and-rescuing-scientists which contains a subheading with that very title ("How a cat is like a (furry) pancake"). The students were working in class with physical copies of the magazines, including science _{Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here} 05:09, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

That doesn't explain the non-existent volume and issue number. Traumnovelle (talk) 06:07, 24 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Traumnovelle "non-existent volume": I see in the diff volume = 385 issue = 675. And at the link I provided, "A version of this story appeared in Science, Vol 385, Issue 6715.". It does seem the student made a typo skipping one number from the 4-digit issue number, that's all.

Look, just accept a "WP:TROUT here, will ya :) _{Piotrus at Hanyang| reply here} 14:14, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I see I was wrong, I did look up both the title and issue and could not find anything. Traumnovelle (talk) 19:47, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Firstpenguin44 I apologise for the erroneous accusation. Traumnovelle (talk) 19:51, 26 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]
