- Welcome!
Hello and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. The following links will help you begin editing on Wikipedia:
- The five pillars of Wikipedia
- How to edit a page
- Editing tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
- Naming conventions
- Manual of Style
- Please bear these points in mind while editing Wikipedia
- Respect copyrights – do not copy and paste text or images directly from other websites.
- Maintain a neutral point of view – this is one of Wikipedia's core policies.
- 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.
- No edit warring or sock puppetry.
- If you are testing, please use the Sandbox to do so.
- 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. Deliberately adding such content or otherwise editing articles maliciously is considered vandalism; doing so will result in your account or IP being blocked from editing.
- Do not use talk pages as discussion or forum pages as Wikipedia is not a forum.
The Wikipedia tutorial is a good place to start learning about Wikipedia. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and discussion pages using four tildes, like this: ~~~~ (the software will replace them with your signature and the date). Again, welcome!Template:Z129
Cut/paste move of KK Bosna
Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give KK Bosna a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into KK Bosna Royal. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.
In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut-and-paste-move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Please do not add or change content without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Warning for unsourced/insufficiently sourced, undiscussed and unexplained major, and seemingly POV, edits on multiple articles relating to Bosnia and Herzegovina. A single article on a website of dubious reliability isn't enough to support a claim that BiH is an "autocracy" and "international protectorate", just to mention a couple of the claims made in the edits. So discuss it on the talk pages of the articles, and get support from other editors, BEFORE making such edits again. Thomas.W talk 18:40, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks but you are mistaken. I made rather small edits mostly in the lead or infobox. Besides the reference is of repute, the journal has its Wiki article so you can read it: Peace Magazine, and the book is published by Elsevier also of repute. Feel free to offer your references & discuss, but DON'T delete my edits carelessly. Overdtop (talk) 20:08, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Warning for repeated addition of WP:OR, WP:SYNTH and insufficiently sourced material on multiple articles. Thomas.W talk 20:15, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
Citing 2 very reputable sources (journal; book) can't be POV. Stating Wikipedia definitions can't be SYNTH. Cease threatening or I'll report you for editor abuse and threats and the community can decide whether my contribution was useful or horrific as you're portraying it.

- See WP:BRD: You were Bold, but were Reverted, so now Discuss it. And by all means feel free to report me, but look ut for the boomerang. Thomas.W talk 20:35, 14 November 2014 (UTC)
Sure, here's all the discussion that's needed: (1) your POV claim is denied by references' highest reputation you can think of, (2) as for your SYNTH claim: all I did was state in terms of Wikipedia definitions what's already been settled in relevant Wikipedia's articles.
