Hello! My current mentor is away right now but I have a question that's really bugging me. I'm trying to add the list of lower alpha references(s) to my user page but I can't seem to find the correct template. I edit on the Wikipedia app and calls the [a] notes as "lower alpha (reference)", something like that. -- Tonkarooson ( talk) *new editor* 02:31, 5 June 2024 (UTC)
Hello! I'd like to make an article about a kinda obscure thing, but the only sources I can find about it are not independent. What do I do? -- Jazz Pack ( talk) 09:27, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Tol Bot ( talk) 21:00, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
pretty much all of the edits I've made consisting of adding K-Pop to the infoboxes got removed, most of them being said K-Pop isn't a genre. I think it is a genre. but to avoid biased opinions (which it isn't), I have a topic open for discussion named, "Is K-Pop a music genre?" I want a consensus on this, so how do I make this discussion more known to establish this consensus?? --— Tonkarooson ( talk) 03:52, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Franz Kafka died 100 years ago OTD, hence the story. I uploaded a few pics from the visit of Graham87. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 21:31, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
Today's story is about a tune used by Bach and Mozart. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 20:12, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
Today I wanted to write a happy song story, on a friend's birthday, but instead we have the word of thunder on top of it, which would have been better on 2 June, this year's first Sunday after Trinity. The new lilypond - thanks to DanCherek - is quite impressive. As my 2 Jun story said: Bach was fired up. - Today's Main page is rich in music, also Franz Liszt and a conductor. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 14:37, 11 June 2024 (UTC)
Today is "the day" for James Joyce, also for Bach's fourth chorale cantata (and why does it come before the third?) - the new pics have a mammal I had to look up. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 15:47, 16 June 2024 (UTC)
New pics of food and flowers come with the story of Noye's Fludde (premiered on 18 June), written by Brian Boulton. I nominated Éric Tappy because he died, and it needs support today! I nominated another women for GA in the Women in Green June run, - review welcome, and more noms planned. -- Gerda Arendt ( talk) 14:07, 18 June 2024 (UTC)

Hi Wugapodes, I've made a special holding area for the Olympics but WugBot throws a spanner in the works. Any suggestions how to ensure that it stays there? Schwede 66 06:00, 25 June 2024 (UTC)
==Special occasion holding area==
it treats everything as part of the SOHA and keeps it as-is until it encounters ==Approved nominations==
where it starts processing nominations again. As long as the holding area is between those two, it should stick around. —
