It seems to me that you are already familiar with the forum, I don’t think you really need help. The forum rules are simple and easy to understand, only two things can get you banned; plagiarism and sending unsolicited message.

The thread by Ratimov that you quoted has educational materials about bitcoin wallets. You can also watch videos on YouTube, I recommend Andreas Antonopoulos videos.

Looking at your profile and your post history, I no longer consider you a newbie, especially for someone who drops a comment and posts like this one: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.62387639.

It’s not everyday you see a newbie that can make use of forum tables so well, which makes me doubt if this is truly his first time on the forum.

I don't know if what I'm doing is right or not, but maybe I think it's the best way to start in this forum. Honestly, I'm still afraid of violating the rules and getting banned. I know there are many members who got banned, but I don't know what they did wrong

Punishment for violating rules is not only ban (there are other punishment), it depends on the rule violated by the user or how many times it was continously done before a user is banned. Here is a Thread about the rules of this forum Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ

For the next step, maybe I will read about bitcoin wallets. I just got an electrum wallet, but I don't know what its features are yet. I thought I could learn it here for free.

The rules of the forum might look very huge for anyone to cover up the whole time if they said they wanted to start doing that before they could eventually start posting here. I will advise you to make those most important ones and be yourself in the forum. There are not many things about yourself for you to be so afraid of or interested in learning from. With time, one thing will lead to another, and you will eventually have to learn almost everything about the forum, including the official rules.

You are a fast growing newbie for that matter as its clear that your knowledge about the forum is good and I will just tell something which will be of great help which is fear is actually the best teacher, it helps us to be always conscious of what we are doing either going wrongly or right and since you already how intense the forum can and you have already stated that you covered most of the rules it better now to just read more so your knowledge on bitcoin and wallets like you said will be vast so you can help other like yourself learn.

There is nothing to be afraid of since you've got links about the guides in the forum and for you to avoid those violations which will result of being banned, you already have it and you just need to remember not to do it. Just make yourself familiar with those guides and rules so that you'll avoid them if you think that you're about to do it. Otherwise, you're doing fine as long as you'll never attempt to do any of those that's listed on the Unofficial list of (official) Bitcointalk.org rules, guidelines, FAQ.

Welcome on board mate and you shouldn't see the forum.as a very strict place but rather a home away from home.
There is basically one offense in the forum that is seriously frown at, which plagiarism and anyone been caught in this act is hardly forgiven, so hence don't plagiarize and whatever you copied should be referenced.
Outside the above mentioned, I don't think there is any very serious law in the forum, just do the right things, respect each member, engage in meaningful discussions, learn to accept criticisms and avoid scam or account buying which is frown at my users and not the forum as a whole.

I really don't get your point of view for this thread; it just seems pointless. You know quite a lot of things already, which is enough to expose you to more new and educative contents. What do you want now? because you don't have any serious question you have asked on this thread. It's a good start that you have 28 merits and 28 activities; that shows a good start for yourself, but it doesn't call for any celebration; just stay cool and keep learning since you already know what to do and how to find yourself around the forum.

You cannot actually understand everything at once, so it is normal to still be confuse, as you get accustomed with the forum you will understand both officiall and unofficial rules.

Is this forum strictly against plagiarism? then what if I quote a part of another website's sentence as a reference argument in the discussion? is it a violation?

Plagiarism is the most frowned act upon not only on the forum. You can actually quote anything to either add to the point you making but be sure to add the right reference that leads to that article. Not adding any reference link makes the enter statement yours.

Yes I've found that thread, I've read it but still confused by some terms, like multi sign

Un_rank has already explained the meaning of multi sig for you. Multi is just adding another security layer to your wallet where you have multiple keys and with at least two co signers before a transaction can be initiated. The most common multi sig are the 2-3 multi sig and the 3-5 multi sig, the higher the signatures the better the security. This kind of wallet can be set up when two or more people decide to hold their funds in a single wallet. This will protect one party from withdrawing funds without the other party(s) getting informed.

I would advice that once you don’t understand something you can just search upon it on the forum and if you don’t find any then you can create a thread asking the questions

Just to be sure, did you verify your electrum wallet? see tutorial at: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/guide-how-to-safely-download-and-verify-electrum-guide-5240594

In any case, here's a brief description on what to expect on electrum, see: https://bitcoin.org/en/wallets/desktop/windows/electrum/
Note: other wallets as well as bitcoin related resources are also on there, you could try to explore the whole website as well.

"Quoting" something does not count as plagiarism at all. It is only plagiarism when you copy and paste a text without any reference to the original writer or any indication that it is copied, like using quote tags or "" in the text.

Multi sig indicates how many signatures are needed to sign a transaction. If you create a regular wallet, you own the private keys and can sign a transaction using it.
If you create a 2-3 multi sig wallet, there are three keys and two out of three of them are needed to sign transactions, so one party cannot sign without one of the others.
2-2 is used on bisq platform where both the buyer and seller are needed to sign any transaction being made. One party cannot sign without the other.

Multi sig can also be used by a single person to back up their wallets in different locations for more security.

What got them banned is likely either of plagiarism or sharing malwares or ban evasion (for users that were initally banned for any of the first two reasons). If you can avoid doing any of these you have a low chance of getting banned.

There is a thread about wallets^[1] you can read that would help guide your decision.
Electrum is one of the most recommended choices on the forum and you cannot go wrong with it. If you have any questions about their features along the way, feel free to ask.

Hello friend...

I've been on this forum for a week. As a beginner, the first step in this forum is read some rules such as:
Newbies - Read before posting
Writing a welcome message
FAQ: Everything you need to know about forum 'activity, account ranks and merit
Ratimov's Forum Guides, Tutorials & Lists
And other thread in my local subforum

I think this forum has a lot of rules. To be honest, I don't fully understand it yet, but I'll continue to study it

I've tried creating a thread and many members have provided feedback. I am happy with their warm welcome. I've learned how to write with quotes, insert links, insert images, insert code, and more. I think it's not as difficult as I imagined before

I don't know if what I'm doing is right or not, but maybe I think it's the best way to start in this forum. Honestly, I'm still afraid of violating the rules and getting banned. I know there are many members who got banned, but I don't know what they did wrong

For the next step, maybe I will read about bitcoin wallets. I just got an electrum wallet, but I don't know what its features are yet. I thought I could learn it here for free.

Regards
Always take care of the family
