I just realized that at Hold On Baby I accidentally repeated some references. How do I fix this? —VersaceSpace 🌃 03:32, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, VersaceSpace. Follow the procedure described at WP:NAMEDREF. Cullen328 (talk) 05:07, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@VersaceSpace  Fixed for you. GoingBatty (talk) 13:13, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you, I'll definitely follow Cullen's link in the future. —VersaceSpace 🌃 13:22, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Some artist ask us to create his page on Wikipedia and gave us the material to put it on, about, written books, monarchy, medals and distinctions, but when we finish the page it was in the same day delete and we can't understand why. I would like to know why you delete the page although does not promote violence, the pictures are his, it's not spam and everything is verified but you still delete the page. I was wondering what can I do to be able to get is page up and running with you deleting it? The artist really needs this, has he say is to enahace his work visibility, have a biography in a respectable site and let the world know hi and not just the country where is from. Thank you for your answer. Mboleo (talk) 05:10, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mboleo: An article on a subject is not for their benefit; it is meant to inform readers about them, so long as their notability as Wikipedia defines it is established. Promotion is not what Wikipedia is for, and as such is heavily frowned upon on here. Please tell your artist to use social media networking sites like Instagram, Facebook, or (god forbid) TikTok. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 05:15, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ok Rrbigdog1 (talk) 06:37, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for your answer. I'll inform the artist about that although he is quite known in Portugal and he believes that should be on Wiki the information about him. Mboleo (talk) 13:02, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mboleo: Then reliable, secondary sources that significantly cover the artist must be cited to establish his notability. If those aren't provided then there's no hope of there being an article on him. Just beingquite known does not hold much weight here. Since you are also in contact with the artist, you must declare a conflict of interest (or any paid or employed relationship you may have), preferably on your user page. Also let the artist know that an article about him isn't necessarily a good thing. —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 13:24, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

According to our records, the only "article" you have worked on was User:Miguel Boléo. Since according to your own words in this post you are not Miguel Boléo, you have been blocked for using two names (that and User:Mboleo) which constitute impersonation of Miguel Boléo, your client. --Orange Mike | Talk 13:43, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How may i add images to my wikipedia articles Rrbigdog1 (talk) 06:37, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Rrbigdog1 Please see WP:UPIMAGE for instructions. Note that you cannot just add any old image that you find somewhere on the internet here; the best thing would be if you took the image yourself with your own camera. 331dot (talk) 06:57, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I have noticed some vandalism at PFM-1. Namely, constant edit and revisions related to claimed Ukrainian use of Russian cluster weapon in Donetsk, without citation, source or documentation. Suggest disputed template be added or article be locked to logged in users. Would an editor please assist me with fixing it? Thank you, 2604:3D08:B184:F900:1900:67A0:B10C:8CA2 (talk) 09:13, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think the edits have been vandalistic, but there is an issue at the article that could use more editor attention. I removed some poorly sourced and undue content and commented at the talk page. For requests like this, I would recommend a noticeboard post over using the help desk. WP:NPOVN would have been a good choice for this. If you ever want to request protection of a page, see WP:RFPP Firefangledfeathers (talk / contribs) 13:53, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I recently did a search for the name “Ana” in Wikipedia and in just the search suggestions, an article about anal sex with a vulgar image popped up at the top of the results. I like Wikipedia for the access to information, but I absolutely do not want to see articles like this, nor do I want my kids stumbling across them. Can I block these kinds of results and access to such articles? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.36.226.126 (talk) 13:17, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia is not censored. Cullen328 (talk) 16:05, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On Wikipedia, see Wikipedia:Options to not see an image. However, we cannot control Google, unfortunately. weeklyd3 (block | talk | contributions) 16:06, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

On Google, there is this feature called SafeSearch that's supposed to filter out explicit content. You might want to try that. weeklyd3 (block | talk | contributions) 16:18, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The poster is using the mobile version https://en.m.wikipedia.org and refers to Wikipedia's search suggestions after typing "Ana" in the search box. The second suggestion is Anal sex with File:Wiki-analsex.png displayed without going to the article. I admit that is a very graphic result when you haven't even written anal or clicked any link but as said, Wikipedia is not censored. PrimeHunter (talk) 16:24, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

There is something to be said about maybe having the mobile search not show pictures in the search results? —Jéské Couriano v^_^v ^{a little blue Bori} 19:46, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The images generally seem helpful. The feature uses the page image which is also used in other places. An image can be disallowed as page image per mw:Extension:PageImages#Can I exclude certain page images? But we do it very rarely and only for "random" images which are not representative of the article, not for censorship reasons. Whatever people think of this image, it does illustrate what the article is about. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:37, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

How do I add a German article on a writer to an English article listin notable people of a certain surname? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mommydoctor (talk • contribs) 14:32, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Mommydoctor: You don't. Those are not lists of people. They are lists of articles in the English Wikipedia. If there is a notable person without an English Wikipedia article, then you may create the article on that person, and then add the article to the list. Make sure the person meets the notability criteria for the English Wikipedia (WP:N), and only then proceed to WP:YFA. -Arch dude (talk) 15:09, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Mommydoctor (ec) Please exercise caution in doing this. The standards and policies of the German Wikipedia are different than those of this one, and what is acceptable there is not necessarily acceptable here. 331dot (talk) 15:12, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The organization I am writing about is very hence no published resources about the organization. What sources should I use for referencing. Thanks WaxmanRono (talk) 15:34, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, WaxmanRono. An acceptable Wikipedia article summarizes what reliable, independent sources say about the topic, and significant coverage is required. If those published sources do not exist, then it is impossible to write an acceptable article. Cullen328 (talk) 16:10, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, WaxmanRono! I assume (as I think did Cullen328 above) that you meant to write "very new . . .". In this context, you may want to read our essay WP:Too soon. If your subject continues to be successful it's likely that, in time, more Reliable sources that are about your subject (a news agency) and independent of it will accumulate.

Unfortunately, there is (I think) a tendency for news agencies and similar organisations (who would typify such sources) to avoid broadcasting/publishing very much about others in their field: positive things might promote a rival at their own expense, negative things might look petty and start a tit-for-tat exchange. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195} 90.201.73.20 (talk) 15:37, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

WaxmanRono You have already had essentially the same answers to your query at the Teahouse. Please don't ask the same thing in multiple places as it wastes everyone's time. Mike Turnbull (talk) 15:45, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

For this site how do I message people? Can you? Katiesage124 (talk) 17:47, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Katiesage124: You can communicate with others about improving the encyclopedia by editing the section where the discussion is taking place (there is also a reply tool that can help facilitate that as well). —Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 17:55, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Katiesage124:You may also place a new section on a user's talk page to start a new discussion with that user, or start a new discussion about imprving an article by starting a new section on the article's talk page. -Arch dude (talk) 17:58, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See the thread above. Wikipedia isn't a messaging app, and article talk pages and user talk pages are for discussing improvements to the encyclopedia articles.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 19:37, 31 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
