[edit]Hello, BlackBoy1213, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of your recent edits did not conform to Wikipedia's verifiability policy, and may have been removed. Wikipedia articles should refer only to facts and interpretations verified in reliable, reputable print or online sources or in other reliable media. Always provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed. Wikipedia also has a related policy against including original research in articles. Additionally, all new biographies of living persons must contain at least one source.
If you are stuck and looking for help, please see the guide for citing sources or come to The Teahouse, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have.
I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Again, welcome! Sarsenet•he/they•(talk) 02:25, 14 September 2026 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: 1996 in Albania (September 16)
[edit]
The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:
- provide significant coverage: discuss the subject in detail, not just brief mentions or routine announcements;
- are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
- are independent: not connected to the subject, such as press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Wikipedia.
You must place an inline citation directly after:
- quotations;
- any material whose verifiability is likely to be challenged or is contentious;
- any material about living people.

- Source Editor: Introduction to referencing with Wiki Markup.

Hello!
[edit]Hello BlackBoy1213, I think it is admirable you tried to create new articles for Wikipedia but as other editors have said, it is a really hard thing to do. I suggest reading WP:Guidance for younger editors along with WP:Mentorship. I hope you return and if you do, start again with doing little things because there is plenty to do here to help out and along the way you learn a lot. Also, of course, don't use AI because it causes a lot of problems. I wish you the best - S0091 (talk) 18:28, 18 September 2026 (UTC)
- Thank you so much for saying that! But my question is what should i edit first? BlackBoy1213 (talk) 23:46, 19 September 2026 (UTC)
- Hello, @BlackBoy1213.
- I remember when I started editing Wikipedia twenty years ago (when I was only fifty years old!) how I really wanted to make my mark by creating new articles.
- Now I know that creating new articles is not the only way to contribute to Wikipedia, and it's often not the best way - especially now, that so many millions of articles have already been written. (Some of them are very poor, and should be improved or deleted, but not many editors want to spend much time clearing up other people's messes!) It genuinely is harder than it used to be to find a suitable subject for an article.
- Writing an article starts with finding sources that are about the subject of the article specifically, where nobody connected with the subject has had any input: they need to meet all the conditions in WP:42. Unless you can find several such sources, there's no point in trying to write an article, because an article should not be based on what you know, but on what the sources say. (That's been the main problem with the drafts you've created so far: you've thought of a subject and started writing about it, instead of looking for the sources).
- You ask what should you edit first: have you looked at the WP:Task Center? ColinFine (talk) 16:42, 20 September 2026 (UTC)
