I reviewed a pending change today of Laverne Cox and did not accept it because it was unsourced info in a BLP. Shortly thereafter, another editor reverted my change but added a citation. Rather than just doing a new edit and adding the citation - this editor appears to have done a revert and edit in one step. I'm just wondering how this works and is this common? I haven't seen it before. Was this the right way to handle this. I'm a little concerned because my change was reverted (is there any reason have any concern about this?) (The editor actually reverted their own change a few minutes later.) MB ( talk) 00:26, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
How do I make Wikipedia my home page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Romo909 ( talk • contribs) 01:11, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
I am working on writing a wikipedia article about a magazine, and am wondering about the logo image to put in the infobox. The logo of this magazine is a G with a superscript M, all in serif capitals. I'm pretty sure it is not trademarked. How should I go about uploading an image of this— should I copy the logo image from their website and upload that, or recreate it myself, knowing that I might not get the font and placement just right? How would wikipedia's image copyright restrictions apply in this scenario? Margalob ( talk) 02:29, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
I am interested in entering a personal biography entry, can you advise on the protocol and information required to do this? many thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lisa black hochhauser ( talk • contribs) 08:44, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
I made a small edit on the above page - it now says "pending". Have I done something wrong? We are librarians in Australia. 203.45.162.33 ( talk) 09:09, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Hi there,
I recently helped create a page and I noticed that it has been flagged for promotional content. Just wanted to reach out to see how I can rectify this issue. The page is for Unanimous A.I.: Unanimous A.I.
Looking forward to a reply, Brittiny — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgonzalez512 ( talk • contribs) 18:38, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for that. I'm still seeing a notification about promotional content - how can i fix? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgonzalez512 ( talk • contribs) 19:01, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

thank you Pudheer ( talk) 18:56, 19 May 2016 (UTC) Pudheer ( talk) 18:56, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
is it possible for a person/thing/event/phenomenon to be properly notable to have a Wikipedia article but none of it's sourcing is available online...and if so how is the notability judged if the sources can only be listed but not seen? 68.48.241.158 ( talk) 19:45, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
hey, i work at a major record label and just signed up 2-3 days ago to get our artists on Wikipedia. i really need help with my first article. seems like whatever i do is wrong. the page is Dre Rich Kidd . please dont delete it. im trying my best to fix everything.

Please help me - there are the words "pending changes" up the top of this page. It has been there for nearly a day. Shall I try to fix it up by removing the words 'pending changes' myself??22:37, 19 May 2016 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Srbernadette ( talk • contribs)
I have checked and the most recent edits on the above page were "accepted" by the editor Gilo1969 - why is the "pending changes" still up the top of ther page. Has it's removal been overlooked? Thanks for any information you can provide Srbernadette ( talk) 23:17, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
I am still confused. The last "accepted" on the above page was NOT by the editor called "Dismas". The most recent "accepted" was: [accepted by Gilo1969]. Why, then, is the phrase "pending..." still placed at the top of the page near "History' etc? Please help with any explanations. Thanks so much Srbernadette ( talk) 23:35, 19 May 2016 (UTC)
Hey Guys,
What is the procedure for sourcing a plaque? It is to take a picture? How would you use a picture as a source?
Cheers,
