Although some prefer welcoming newcomers with cookies, I find fruit to be a healthier alternative.

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.
Do a search on Google or your preferred search engine for the subject of the Wikipedia article that you want to create a citation for.
Find a website that supports the claim you are trying to find a citation for.
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.
Click the 'Get reference wiki text' button.
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).
In the Wikipedia article, after the claim you found a citation for, paste (Ctrl+V or Apple+V) the text you copied.
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 Wikipedia. (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.
Hello, I'm Air on White. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Robert Adams (spiritual teacher), but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you.

Ok, you are correct. Better citation is important. I'm still a bit new at this. Thanks for the heads up!

Your recent editing history at Robert Adams (spiritual teacher) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.
Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you do not violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Hi Adam Black,
I have written a bit on the Robert Adam talk page. I have provided well cited material and have not even removed the inane material others have left. I do not want to engage in an edit war. No one talks to me on the talk page except people that agree with me, so what do I do next?
Robert Adams real name is Robert Spiegel. I have newspaper links, birth certificate, marriage license, and pictures of him using the name Robert Spiegel. Anytime I put that up it is immediately removed in favor of inane stuff. What do I mean by inane stuff.
This: "All of a sudden hundreds of bodhisattvas and mahasattvas came out of the forest and sat down in a semi-circle around Adams as the Buddha." And "Adams as the Buddha, gave the bodhisattvas and mahasattvas four principles,..."
This stuff is presented as factual material yet if I present some of the well documented pictures and articles of him posing as Dr. J. Robert Spiegel (his real name but he wasn't a Dr.) or material related to his actual past such as working as a hypnotist, and Science of Mind speaker or his daughter who controls his foundation ... it is immediately removed and I am threatened with a ban.
What do you recommend? Is Wikipedia just meant for fantasy?
