Hello,
Please guide me how to create a company's page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.167.96.58 ( talk) 10:42, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
I'd like to request an increase in the width of this template, something similar to the Golf equivalent (see Ellsworth Vines' page for both, and the difference in width between them) in order to hopefully prevent some of the actual field text on the left-hand side (e.g. 'career prize money', 'current ranking', 'australian open') from running over onto 2 lines. This happens on many players' pages, e.g. Roger Federer, Fred Stolle, John Isner and Jérôme Golmard, whereas the infoboxes presumably should look relatively clutter free/stay on one line ala David Nalbandian, Denis Istomin, Marat Safin and Alexander Popp. This would greatly improve the presentation of such pages and make the infoboxes more efficient and easier to read... would this be possible? I have posted this at WikiProject Tennis also. Thanks. Asmazif ( talk) 12:35, 9 August 2012 (GMT)

On the page Gymnastics_at_the_2012_Summer_Olympics_–_Women's_rhythmic_individual_all-around, there is an almost empty table; only two columns are partly filled. I can still sort by the two partially filled columns. But why does the sorting by hoop not work? I have to click on the next (empty) column of clubs to sort by hoop:

In currently, CBS morning newscasts is called CBS This Morning, but I notice a problem. When I linked to CBS Morning or CBS Morning Show, it redirect to The Early Show, the former morning programme on CBS. And no pages have information of history of CBS morning shows in 1970s.--jcn John Chen ( Talk- Contib.) RA 14:25, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Hi, I just need a little clarification, some time ago Wikipedia suggested that I should try and link the Heroes Welcome Article to other relating and connecting wikipedia articles, and this is something I have been doing as and when an opportunity arises.(you can probably track these?) . Yesterday I added a section to the Mariah Mundi and the Midas Box article (it seemed the most appropriate way of adding the piece) headed inspiring communities. I believed this article to be very relevant bearing in mind the well reported association between the Mariah Mundi series of books and the Heroes Welcome story. I noticed this morning that this new section was removed by one of the originating writers who seem to go under the same name as the film production company. This action seems to go against the wikipedia principle, could you advice me? Many thanks Fwe506 ( talk) 14:45, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
Not sure how to do that, but as I suspect its the film company PR dept that have formulated the Mariah Mundi piece then they may not want an association to the Heroes Welcome article. many thanks anyway Fwe506 ( talk) 16:11, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

My question, really, is when can I remove the "unreferenced stubs" template?
I've been working on the Schrodinger-Newton equations entry, and I would like to remove the "unreferenced stubs" template since I've added quite a bit (although still more work is needed!)...but I don't know if I've done enough to warrant removing the template.

I have checks both the contents in the page under footnotes and the talk page but see no explantation why some athletes, like Allan Wells, have an Olympic symbol rather than their national flag next to their name. Please explain it and clearly mark what it denotes in the page link above and relevant pages elsewhere.

There are two Sauk languages -- one is on the page Sauk people, the other is Ma Manda language. However, a search on "Sauk language" redirects to Ma Manda language only. Both Sauk languages might also be called "Sauk", and belong on the disambiguation page. Would someone with more experience with disambiguation please take a look at this?

A lot of formatted tables have a "Rank" column. e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_multiple_Olympic_gold_medalists. If one adds a new name to the list, e.g. previously omitted through oversight, all of the ranks below the new entry have to be manually incremented by 1...
Or do they? Is there a way to automatically increment these ranks, or to set up the table in the first place so these ranks are automatically generated when the table is edited? Ordinary Person ( talk) 23:28, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

My favorite subjects are economics and foreign policy. I am already established in the Economics WikiProject. (Their page hasn't been updated in a long time!) Is there a WikiProject for international affairs / foreign policy?
Also, where can I find a template/banner that is useful for students saying that they are busy? thanks!-- Colonel House ( talk) 23:46, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
