RE - the info box at the top of the page - should it have the title "Capt." for Peter Middleton - we are not sure and it is hard to change from our device. Thanks Srbernadette ( talk) 00:08, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi, I would like to know if I can write an informational article about a startup — Preceding unsigned comment added by Cnrmadureira ( talk • contribs) 00:48, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
It seems I have difficulty finding the exact coding to make an award I received, horizontally to fit correctly on my user page. Any assistance in "verticalizing" it

In appreciation of all your high quality work on Pakistan-related articles on Wikipedia that I have come across since 2012. I realize you are an experienced editor and have been active for many years. I have nothing but respect for all your work. Thanks and Best Regards Ngrewal1 ( talk) 22:25, 29 May 2018 (UTC) |

I am worried that I should not have removed the top "re-directing" line from this page. Please repair. Srbernadette ( talk) 04:43, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Hi,
Thank you for updating the Ovum Logo on this page - /info/en/?search=Ovum_Ltd.
Although up to date, the current image is pixelated and has a grey background.
Could you please use this picture instead as the logo? - https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ovum+logo&rlz=1C1GCEA_enGB773GB774&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwikpZTMia3bAhUIAsAKHR_5D_8Q_AUICigB&biw=1922&bih=976#imgrc=HhC-XjmXvtImCM:

How can I delete the 'Cite error' references? John Desmond ( talk) 11:20, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
A wrestling company is using a photo I took and uploaded to Wikipedia without my permission in promotional materials and flyers. Is this allowed per the rights assigned to the image? Do I or Wikipedia have any recourse? -- Endlessdan ( talk) 15:13, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Before I edit articles on businesses or major software products, how do I spot astroturfing within products, or paid editing? I don't know if there's a relevant policy page on astroturfing, but it'd be good to know. -- Chelston-temp-1 ( talk) 16:58, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Sometimes I like to search the ref desk archives for questions I contributed to. I use the search box at WP:RD and it produces the search string of "RudolfRed prefix:Wikipedia:Reference desk/Archives". Some of the results are in the Lua archives. For example: Wikipedia:Reference_desk/Archives/Lua/Computing/January_2013. The Lua results don't interest me. I know I can just ignore them, but I am interested to know if there is a way to exclude them from the search results? RudolfRed ( talk) 18:30, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Re: File:Winchester Virginia Seal.jpg
The City of Winchester has provided me with the modified version of their seal. I tried to upload the new image to the file with no success. Thanks. Hoppyh ( talk) 18:31, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
At
Angels_Flight#Evaluation, the bulleted list overlaps the thumbnail image on teh left. I remember at some point coming across a solution that would allow a bulleted list to correctly appear alongside a thumbnail image, but I can't find it now. Anyone remember how to fix this? --

Hello, I am currently reworking the list List of number-one hits (Germany) and for whatever reason everything get's small after I use the Template:Hidden. If you compare the size of the words in the sections "Artist with the most number-one hits" and "Songs with the most weeks at number-one", you'll see that I mean. Anybody who can help me with this issue?-- Lirim | T 18:53, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
Hello, unfortunately it seems that most of the article Medical sociology has been copy/pasted from a few text books. I've identified the two main sources on the talk page of the article. Most of the this content is from an IP address. I'm willing to add replacement content but I'm wondering if there is a plagiarism bot that can delete the copy/pasted material. I 'm afraid very little of the article's body is not copy/pasted. AugusteBlanqui ( talk) 20:44, 30 May 2018 (UTC)
