Be bold?????

The first sentence reads "We would like everyone to be bold and help make Wikipedia a better encyclopedia."

When I try to find the edit button, all I find is "View source" and "This page is semi-protected".

This is ridiculous.

NB We'll see how long can this bold edit of mine can stay :) 202.40.137.196 (talk) 10:17, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your effort to improve Wikipedia. There is an explanation of what "semi-protected" means at WP:SEMI . - Butwhatdoiknow (talk) 16:26, 3 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

this means that you can't edit the page directly until you have created an account and got a little bit of experience making a couple of edits (it's a very low bar! 10 edits!)

and, if you just can't wait to make a change to a particular semi-protected page, or can't creating an account, you can submit an edit request for someone else to edit on your behalf, at the talk page :) Tomatoswoop (talk) 15:29, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

looking at your recent edit history it seems that you have had some trouble with some of your edits being reverted. If you create an account, you may have a better experiences - people might write to you on your account's talk page to help you out and give guidance with how to edit wikipedia :) --Tomatoswoop (talk) 15:43, 27 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 14 June 2025

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

I am not going to edit he article on that Alamo because there are too many inaccurate references not only to the historical background ,but it is a blatant piece of propaganda to justify the American take over of land belonging to Mexico. The indigenous population is barely taken into consideration, and the huge bribes that were offered to take over California,Arizona, New Mexico,Texas,etc to Mexican politicians and Generals. Get a Mexican historian to rewrite this rubbish.
