Need assistance in making edits
[edit]
Helped Hi, I am new to Wikipedia and still learning to make edits following the guidelines. I have a question - I want to make some edits to the existing article (like improving the sentences and making the article grammatically correct). Is it okay to do so?
For example, I want to edit "Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed was born in the city of Pilibhit, in modern-day Uttar Pradesh in 1883 to Sheikh Rahim Bakhs. He is said to have learnt the complete Quran Sharif by heart. He also studied the origin of Urdu and Persian languages. Subsequently, he acquired the highest degree in the unani system of medicine." to "Hakim Hafiz Abdul Majeed was born in the city of Pilibhit, in modern-day Uttar Pradesh, in 1883 to Sheikh Rahim Bakhs. He studied the origins of the Urdu and Persian languages and acquired the highest degree in the Unani system of medicine."
Do I need to keep anything in mind before editing or need any additional reference for updating this sentence? I am a paid contributor. 03:21, 5 August 2025 (UTC) Nishacoach (talk) 03:21, 5 August 2025 (UTC)
Helped Hi, I posted a question earlier and not sure if it can be repeated. So, putting up with another concern. I want to edit the content "After the founder's passing in 1922, his wife Rabea Begum and her two sons founded the 'Hamdard Trust,' with a commitment to allocate 85 percent of its profits for charitable purposes. His son Hakeem Abdul Hameed took over the administration of Hamdard Laboratories at the age of fourteen. Abdul Hameed would then be joined by his younger brother Hakeem Muhammad Saeed in running the company until the latter's move to Pakistan in 1948 and forming Hamdard Pakistan in Karachi." to "After the founder's passing in 1922, at the age of 39, his wife, Rabia Begum and her two sons Hakeem Abdul Hameed and Hakeem Muhammad Said founded the 'Hamdard Trust,' in 1948 with a commitment to allocate 85 percent of its profits for charitable purposes. Rabia Begum managed the institution for 5 years until their elder son, Hakeem Abdul Hameed, took over the administration of Hamdard Laboratories at the age of fourteen. He served as the editor of Hamdard Sehat, a monthly magazine launched in 1933 to promote public health awareness. ".- Can I edit it or do I need to put any additional references? The existing references will stay as they are, only the content will be edited. Please assist. Thank you. Nishacoach (talk) 03:12, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
- To answer both questions: You need to cite a reliable source for each statement added (or indicate which existing source supports them). As you have a COI, you should then make a request or requests on this page, using the edit request wizard. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 13:00, 6 August 2025 (UTC)
