✍️ Written guide on How to make a WikiPedia page:

2. In the upper-right corner, click “create an account”. Put in all the relevant info such as your username and password.

3. Verify your email and login into your new account.

4. Click on “preferences”, then “editing", and then select "Show me both editor tabs" on the "Editing mode" dropdown menu.

5. Click on "sandbox" in the upper-right corner. This is where you'll be able to make your Wikipedia page. You will be able to write your WikiPedia page in full detail. The first thing you should do is create a heading for your page title. I recommend you use the 'visual editor' since it's more user friendly. The toolbar on top gives you all the tools you need to format your page. You can add citations, references, lists, tables, special characters, internal and external links, and various other effects. This toolbar gives you all the tools to make your Wikipedia page come to life!

It will teach you and guide you in full detail on how to create your first Wikipedia article.

6. After you written your page, it's time to publish it. You can do this by clicking on the "publish page..." button.

This will post your wikipedia page on the sandbox. Which you can then move to the main space.

7. To move your Wikipedia page to the main space you need to meet two requirements.

The first one is that you need to have at least a 4-day old account. The second requirement is that you need to have made at least 10 edits with your Wikipedia account.

8. After the page is moved from the sandbox to the main space, you will most likely get plenty of feedback from Wikipedia's community on what can be improved on your page.

Your Wikipedia page will most likely not stick on the first try, but don't get discouraged. Just take all the feedback into consideration and try again.

I watched many videos on wikipedia page creation. Nothing helped. This one was short, simple and straight-to-the point.

[DeltaDyreckaLetigio]

You're allowed to blink, by the way. But thank you for the comprehensive video!

[roxanne_george]

This is extremely helpful, thank you very much. 99% of all Wiki how-tos just blind you with science. You've managed to explain it very clearly. Greatly appreciated!

So basically today I learned I will never be able to make a page and that it will always get denied and that I will need to pay someone like $300 to do it for me...
