I'm feeling like as someone who frequents errors but is primarily working in DYK, I should have some passing familiarity with the other sections so I can assess whether a requested change is likely to be considered helpful by others working in that area. What can I do in other areas that will help me figure out whether I should even be messing with those main page sections except to correct clear and obvious issues? For instance, is Wikipedia:Today's featured article/November 14, 2019 and its talk where I would check to see if there had been past discussion on yesterday's FA blurb? I see most of these don't have their talk page created; does that discussion happen elsewhere, or is the consensus usually reached by direct editing? In the opinion of those working in FA, should admins not familiar with FA be futzing with anything except very obvious errors? Ditto other areas of the main page -- how can I get myself up to speed so I can at least assess whether I know what I don't know? -- valereee ( talk) 13:13, 15 November 2019 (UTC)
I often feel confused about where to mention concerns that I have about material that appears on the main page. A number of people have been very helpful in explaining aspects of it to me, but I remain confused about some aspects. MPS1992 ( talk) 22:23, 18 November 2019 (UTC)

Why does this just literally say "Trump impeachment inquiry"? Aren't there several wars going on that are more important than this?

Dear wiki author, I can't finding my desired subject after search in wiki search bar. How can I fix it? SHAWON2391 ( talk) 01:58, 6 December 2019 (UTC)
Valereee and I have been working on a proposal to form a new usergroup whose members would be able to edit content on the main page or its fully protected subsidiaries. Since it directly affects this project, and is based in part on the shortage of administrators working here, we would like to invite feedback on the proposal at User talk:Vanamonde93/Main page editor. The proposal itself is at User:Vanamonde93/Main page editor. In particular, we would like to hear it if you are opposed to the whole thing on principle, because we would prefer to spend our time elsewhere if the proposal has no hope of being successful. Best, Vanamonde ( Talk) 04:53, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
Should you add a cascade protected symbol to the top right of the page? I am RedoStone ( talk)

Thrusting the word "SLUT" onto the main page, regardless of context, seems a bit callous and insensitive. 107.72.178.122 ( talk) 14:22, 12 December 2019 (UTC)
Slut is generally a term for a woman or girl who is considered .... The word slut means different things to white women and people of color, especially black women. Slut has different ... Slut-shaming The Ethical Slut Slut (disambiguation) SlutWalk Slut-shaming is the practice of criticizing people, especially women and girls, who are perceived to violate expectations of behavior and appearance regarding issues related to sexuality. The term is used to reclaim the word slut and empower women and girls to have agency over their own sexuality. It may also be used in reference to gay men, who may face disapproval for sexual behaviors considered promiscuous. Slut-shaming rarely happens to heterosexual men. The Ethical Slut: A Guide to Infinite Sexual Possibilities is an English non-fiction book by Dossie Easton and Janet Hardy (given as pseudonym Catherine A. Liszt for the book's first edition in 1997). Radhedash ( talk) 08:40, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
