{{Welcome column}}
Welcome to Wikipedia, Trucks7op!
I'm Tesseractic and I want to welcome ↗ you to Wikipedia!
Wikipedia is an amazing community adventure which is constantly being edited. There are many different versions of Wikipedia for many different languages, and the English version has {{NUMBEROFARTICLES}} articles ↗ which are written by volunteers like you and me! We even have a newspaper, ''The Signpost'' ↗, to keep you up to date with news and new developments. Making your first steps on Wikipedia can be hard sometimes, so if you need any help, don't hesitate to leave a message on my talk page or ask a question on your talk page {{edit|Special:MyTalk|by clicking here|section=new|preload=Help:Contents/helpmepreload|preloadtitle=Help me!}}. Someone will help you soon!
Wikipedia has five pillars ↗ which summarize Wikipedia's fundamental principles:
# Wikipedia is an encyclopedia ↗
# Wikipedia is written from a neutral point of view ↗
# Wikipedia is free content that anyone can use, edit, and distribute ↗
# Editors should treat each other with respect and civility ↗
# Wikipedia has no firm rules ↗
Discover more about Wikipedia and how to take part in this project by looking at the links on the right →
Or if you don't know where to start, visit the Task Center ↗, and find a way you can help improve Wikipedia straight away!
; I hope you have a good time here on Wikipedia, whether reading or contributing.
Again, welcome!<!--Template:Welcome user column--> ''<code style="background:#256"><span style="color:#7f4">> Tesseractic:</span> <span style="color:#f97">talk?</span> ↗ <span style="color:#d8f">✎</span> ↗</code>'' 20:39, 3 April 2024 (UTC)

Women in Red
Hi there, Trucks7op, and thanks for all the biographies you've been creating, including several of women. I look forward to many more. I'm impressed with your creations ↗ which I've just been assessing. Many of them have deserved a C rating. It's good to see that in addition to translations, you have started to create biographies yourself. When you feel ready to create biographies of women, you might find it useful to look through our Ten Simple Rules ↗. Please let me know if you run into any difficulties or need assistance. Happy editing!--Ipigott (talk) 13:56, 18 May 2024 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Taller Torres Garcia ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Juan Pardo ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 05:57, 25 May 2024 (UTC)
Wikipedia and copyright
30px|link=|alt=Control copyright icon ↗ Hello Trucks7op! Your additions to :Kenneth Gyang ↗ have been removed in whole or in part, as they appear to have added copyrighted ↗ content without evidence that the source material is in the public domain ↗ or has been released by its owner or legal agent under a suitably free and compatible ↗ copyright license. (''To request such a release, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission ↗''.) While we appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia, it's important to understand and adhere to guidelines about using information from sources to prevent copyright ↗ and plagiarism ↗ issues. Here are the key points:
- '''Limited quotation:''' You may only copy or translate a ''small'' portion of a source. Any direct quotations ↗ must be enclosed in double quotation mark ↗s (") and properly cited using an inline citation ↗. More information is available on the non-free content page ↗. To learn how to cite a source, see Help:Referencing for beginners ↗. {{#ifeq: | 1 |</strong>}}
- '''Paraphrasing:''' Beyond limited quotations, you are required to put all information ''in your own words''. Following the source's wording too closely can lead to copyright issues ↗ and is not permitted; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing ↗. Even when paraphrasing, you must still cite your sources ↗ as appropriate.
- '''Image use guidelines:''' In most scenarios, only freely licensed ↗ or public domain ↗ images may be used and these should be uploaded to our sister project, Wikimedia Commons ↗. In some scenarios, non-freely copyrighted content can be used if they meet all ten of our non-free content criteria ↗; Wikipedia:Plain and simple non-free content guide ↗ may help with determining a file's elegibility.
- '''Copyrighted material donation:''' If ''you'' hold the copyright to the content you want to copy, or are a legally designated agent, you ''may'' be able to license the text for publication here. Please see Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials ↗.
- '''Copying and translation within Wikipedia:''' Wikipedia articles can be copied or translated, however they must have proper attribution in accordance with Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia ↗. For translation, see Help:Translation § License requirements ↗.
Electrical engineers by nationality
Thanks for your hard work on deorphaning a page. I appreciate it! I noticed that you added :Category:Electrical engineers by nationality ↗ to Christopher Neyor ↗ with this edithttps://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Christopher_Neyor&diff=prev&oldid=1225704884 ↗. Please don't add container categories to pages, categories that end in "by nationality" mean that that category contains a all the different Electrical engineering categories for many different nationalities. If the right nationality doesn't exist, you should instead add the page to :Category:Electrical engineers ↗. One good strategy is to look at the category to see what other pages/categories are in it.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Avgeekamfot. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Fez, Morocco ↗, 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. ''I removed your addition because it was sourced to Simple Flying ↗ which is not a reliable source.'' <!-- Template:uw-unsourced1 --> Avgeekamfot (talk) 13:39, 22 June 2024 (UTC)

DCWC closing update
Two weeks ago, the 2025 Developing Countries WikiContest ↗ came to a close! After three months of stiff competition at the top of the leaderboard, we have our winners. <span class="nowrap">30px|Bronze Belt Buckle – 3rd place ↗ </span>{{DCWC participant/2025|Vigilantcosmicpenguin}}, continuing his work on covering abortion in Africa ↗, comes in third with 692 points. <span class="nowrap">30px|Silver Belt Buckle – 2nd place ↗ </span>{{DCWC participant/2025|Simongraham}} comes in second with 763 points, largely from a slew of good articles about jumping spider ↗s. And returning to the podium for the second year in a row, <span class="nowrap">30px|Gold Belt Buckle – 1st place ↗ </span>{{DCWC participant/2025|BeanieFan11}} takes the Gold Belt Buckle with a mind-boggling 946 points from his series of articles on sportpersons. Congratulations to our winners!
Amazingly, the award for the most countries covered goes to both {{DCWC participant/2025|BeanieFan11}} and {{DCWC participant/2025|Simongraham}}, who each submitted articles under 30 flags! {{DCWC participant/2025|BeanieFan11}} also wins for writing the most quality articles (16 good articles). For submitting 16 articles related to El Salvador, {{DCWC participant/2025|PizzaKing13}} wins the award for most submissions under one country. The award for most submissions related to women goes to both {{DCWC participant/2025|Spookyaki}} (7 biographies about women) and {{DCWC participant/2025|Vigilantcosmicpenguin}} (21 related articles). And for the second year, {{DCWC participant/2025|Simongraham}} wins for the most reviews, having submitted 21!
Among the participants' contributions were 2 FAs, 5 FLs, 124 GAs, and an uncounted number of DYKs, ITNs, and reviews of every kind! Regardless of your level of participation, every contestant can be proud to have contributed towards a major step in countering the systemic bias on Wikipedia ↗. Every year, millions of readers and editors around the globe use Wikipedia to educate themselves and communicate with others about parts of the world that often receive less attention than they deserve. Thank you for participating with us in the contest and contributing to this effort. The DCWC will return next year, and we look forward to seeing you contribute again! However, before that...

Thanks for your contributions to Association of Graduate Librarians of the Argentine Republic ↗. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing as a live article at this time because '''it needs more sources to establish notability'''.
I have converted it to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. I saw that a category you created, :Category:Library-related organizations in France ↗ has not been used on more than one page. According to the guideline Wikipedia:Categorization ↗, categories should be populated with multiple articles ↗. Please help by adding other articles to the categories you create. You can take a look at the categorization FAQ ↗. If you need further help, feel free to ask me or ask at the Teahouse ↗. Thank you.<!-- Template:uw-catpop --> <sup>S</sup>Mason<sub>Garrison</sub> 18:11, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
:Please slow down on category creation. You seem to have added a lot of categories that aren't nested under the Library-related organizations. For example, the tree has Library-related organizations as a child of Libraries, not as a parent of libraries. Therefore, you shouldn't have Libraries in France as the child of Library-related organizations in France. <sup>S</sup>Mason<sub>Garrison</sub> 18:12, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
::Thank you for bringing that up - I will resolve it after reviewing the categorization FAQ. ~ Trucks7op (talk) 18:59, 6 July 2026 (UTC)

::Great. However, please make sure that you review how nesting works before populating categories. Do you understand why I removed the categories I did? I'm happy to explain in more detail if you have specific questions. <sup>S</sup>Mason<sub>Garrison</sub> 22:43, 6 July 2026 (UTC)
