Whenever I type for a page in the search box, an image appears on the left side. The page has got many pictures but only a particular image is displayed while searching for the page. How is that determined? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Strumoccur ( talk • contribs) 03:19, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
I have just uploaded an image for my article on Captain Sir William Bolton. I obtained permission first, and uploaded it to Wikimedia under CC licence 4 with attribution, but I'm not sure how to indicate attribution on the actual article, or indeed whether it needs to be there. I've tried adding attribution as a parameter to the image when posting, but it doesn't show there. Laterthanyouthink ( talk) 03:59, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
My mother is the Sally Kemp who was in Carry on Camping. I am the daughter of Bob Grant, British actor, who my mum was married to. My mother is British, was a LAMDA trained actress, who re-trained as a teacher, and is very much alive and lives in Plymouth,Devon, UK. She is fed up of being told she is dead on Wikipedia. She is currently a local writer/poet, with some published material. She has her birth certificate, marriage license to my father Bob Grant, as well as photos of herself in Carry on Camping leading the cow and in conversation with a famous British actor. She was born in 1939 and is 78 years old. Her DOB is 12/04/39. The actress who is stated in Wikipedia is not my mother, was not in Carry on Camping, and was not the second wife of Bob Grant as my mother was. My brother Rupert was his only son. I am his daughter from his second marriage. He also had a daughter from his first marriage. We were all estranged from our father when he died which was his choice. Please update your records accordingly. Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by Charlotte Grant ( talk • contribs) 10:59, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
I am born December 15, 2949 That means I am 68 not 69 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1015:B12E:D284:E537:47DF:D9CC:77AD ( talk) 11:50, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
I found some unsourced defamatory edits on Bishop Moore Vidyapith, Kayamkulam by 117.246.211.219 ( talk · contribs) ( [1]). They have only made those two edits. I have reverted them, but does anything more need to be done? I understand there is a warning system, but I am relatively new here myself so I didn't want to mess anything up. Thanks Tera TIX 12:41, 27 May 2018 (UTC)

may be appropriate – don't forget to
SUBST them. All the templated warnings are in sections 1 & 2 of
Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace, and a good selection can be sent through
Twinkle if you have that installed. Or you may prefer to type out your own message to the IP, explaining specifically why that edit was not acceptable

(talk), 15:49, 27 May 2018 (UTC)I just watched the first three episodes of the show and figured I’d look up the cast members to see what else they have been in, only to find several spoilers for season 1 in the descriptions of the characters (Roller being alive, quiet Anne beginning a relationship with a cop, etc). Character descriptions don’t need to be long paragraphs and they certainly shouldn’t ruin the first season. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.203.10.233 ( talk) 21:26, 27 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi,
On French presidential election, 2017, there are links directing to En Marche! although the article (and political party) is named La République En Marche! When I tried to correct this I was revoked because another user claims that the redirect is correct; why does he not let me fix this. I don't see how his opinion works. An idea? Is he right or wrong?
