Can you help me put this on a page
I'm having problems inserting a schedule for KTLK-FM. When I put the code in, it pushes the whole schedule to the bottom of the page. The code is below.

There is a photograph of Holger Danske, attached to the article 'Ogier the Dane', and some idiot has photoshopped a bong into it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 123.2.122.113 (talk) 00:23, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Bong?Um... I don't think that's a bong. If it is, then it was in the original picture. There's only one upload in the file's upload log, and it's by an established photographer. You've got the right spirit, though :) [flaminglawyer]00:40, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
We are fine with adding/editing/formatting pages, but how does one proceed to ADD an entry inside an existing CATEGORY?
For example, the CATEGORY "Category:Point of sale companies" has Alphabetical headers and then names within each alphabetical header. How do we proceed to: 1) Add an Alphabetical Header 2) Add an entry under a new or existing alphabetical header?
You add [[Category:Whatever]] to the text at the end of the article. Articles are automatically sorted by the title of the article; thus, special rules apply for people, who must be given a DEFAULTSORT code so that Albert Einstein is sorted as Einstein, Albert. --Orange Mike | Talk01:27, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
As of now Mohamed Altoumaimi redirects to the Bernoulli numbers article, yet there is no mention of him anywhere in the article. I am asking if this is enough to merit his own article. I'm sure there is more on this kid, but I just happened to see him on the main page of yahoo, and came to see if wikipedia had more info. I don't want to start an article that isn't notable, and while I know the WP:NOTABILITY policies, I'm really not sure if this qualifies. If given the OK, I would be happy to write the article.DrewSmithWhat I've done06:33, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
He's certainly got some news coverage, but I suspect he might still fall foul of our "one event" guideline for biographies of living people - i.e., he's known for this incident alone, and there's really not much else to say about him (yet). I'd think the best course would be to add a paragraph about him to the Bernoulli numbers article, rather than creating a new article. Gonzonoir (talk) 09:48, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I figured as much. But consensus at bernoulli numbers is that a blurb about him would be innapropriate. Is there a page somwehere for young mathematicians?DrewSmithWhat I've done21:34, 31 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Duplication
How do I get rid of the second reference to the References in this article? Contents [hide] 1 Vietnam 2 Guangxi and Guangdong 3 Central Leadership 4 References 5 References DOR (HK) (talk) 09:06, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
1) What is the link for cross-checking the edit history of two users? I've seen it before, but have never used it.
2) I'm fairly sure a BLP is being controlled by one editor (close to the subject) operating at least three accounts. Is there anywhere I can ask for an outside opinion, or is WP:SSP the only place?
I'm not sure about question 1, however, for question 2, SPI is probably the best place to go. However, be sure to have diffs to support your theory. SPI will decline requests that appear to be fishing expeditions. TNXMan16:40, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am already a member of telugu wikipedia and my user name is SAIRATNA. Can I take membership again in english wikipedia ? can I create a user page in english wikipedia also ? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sairatna (talk • contribs) 14:09, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Someone has posted a brief Wikipedia article on British-born Australian zoologist William John Dakin. However, his name in the article title is John William Dakin. There doesn't seem to be any doubt about which name is correct. Even in the references in the Wikipedia bio (and in other published articles), he is listed as William John Dakin. Can this be corrected so that the page becomes searchable? Thank you. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.126.72.1 (talk) 15:16, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Yup although I misspoke, it's a trial, not the demo (so it's a limited time, not limited functionality). You just open the AI file and do a file-save as, then you select what variation of SVG (SVG 1.1, 1.0, Tiny, Basic) to save to and you're done. -Optigan13 (talk) 20:15, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I have been searching for INDIA WAVES on Wikipedia but I can't seem to find the page. The page is created India Waves Network but why does it not show? -Thank youIndia Waves (talk) 21:42, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
User:India Waves is your user page. The reason it is not visible is that it is in User space not Article space. To be in Article space it would have to be moved. But if it were in Article space, it would be immediately deleted for it is hopelessly promotional. Wikipedia does not accept promotional content. See Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations, WP:NPOV, and WP:COI. —teb728tc23:57, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I took an illustrative photograph (of the Devries Monument) with my camera today and want to put it into an article (called Lewes, Delaware).
When I tried, I was told to get an account on "Wikipedia Commons" and upload it there. I think I did that, but I'm not sure. It says "There is already an image with that name in Wikipedia Commons." But it doesn't say WHAT name, so I can't tell if it's my own that I think I may have uploaded, or someone else's.
In any case, I can't see how to get the image from "Wikipedia Commons" into the article on Wikipedia. Whenever I try to "upload image" to Wikipedia, it sends me back to Wikipedia Commons, and I don't know what I'm supposed to do once I'm there.
Incidentally, I know that licensing is a big issue, but the different options from which one must choose for licensing are really quite opaque. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mr.Slade (talk • contribs) 22:15, 30 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]
