I just noticed that the section in the left pane that normally links to pages in other languages is empty for the Help Desk. I seem to recall that it was populated at one point. Anyone know why we don't have links to the help sections at the various other Wikipedias? RudolfRed ( talk) 01:07, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
I was just informed that some of my rollback reverts were being marked as "minor" edits. Does anyone know what the problem is and how to fix it? Thnx.

How do I activate my old account when I don't remember or password for it, but I remember having one because I had previously had the mobile app. Also, can you edit a semi-protected article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bcambrice ( talk • contribs) 05:20, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
On the android mobile app, I saved some articles. The are in what appears to be called my "reading list." The app provides an easy way to access my reading list by a small symbol in the lower left which looks like a bookmark. When viewing Wikipedia on a web browser, I don't see this "bookmark" or any way to access my reading list. Is the "reading list" feature only available in the android app? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Drodarm ( talk • contribs) 05:32, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
I have previously created several articles in the main namespace and have been editing for quite a while now so have a fairly good idea of what is required, but am not an official page reviewer. Recently I have twice come across draft articles for new articles which I was going to create, and copyedited one and fairly extensively edited another (still a WIP, but not too far off good enough now). I can't seem to find a guide or direction on how to move the draft page into namespace, without going through an assessment process, which I don't think is necessary and which will cause unnecessary delays. Do I just do a straightforward page move, or is there a different process for drafts? The article in question is Draft:Vincent Namatjira. Laterthanyouthink ( talk) 05:41, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Ref 11 is from a journal. Please put in the publisher and leave in the quote. thanks 175.33.49.35 ( talk) 05:45, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Typically how long does it take for a wikipedia page to be reviewed? what supporting citations, references do we need in order for the page to be accepted? — Preceding unsigned comment added by StephaniePolystream ( talk • contribs) 10:03, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Must like I did a headline now but it won't work on the create a new page area — Preceding unsigned comment added by SLROLRthefirst ( talk • contribs) 13:16, 7 April 2020 (UTC)

I follow the "Oldest People" article because it is interesting to me.
I notice that the tenth oldest man in the world, "Hyppolyte Cadou," is still listed as the tenth oldest living man, even though the Wikipedia "Supercentenarians who died in 2020" article lists him as having died around March 11. Another Googleable article describes in French his March 14 funeral. I tried to bring this information to the person who controls the "Oldest People" article, but I must not know the proper way to do that, because the information has been ignored. Is there a way I can do that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.179.183.136 ( talk) 18:32, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
Could you explain, how should I remove dead link http://www.saltykov.net.ru/ from the page https://ru.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%B0%D0%BB%D1%82%D1%8B%D0%BA%D0%BE%D0%B2-%D0%A9%D0%B5%D0%B4%D1%80%D0%B8%D0%BD,_%D0%9C%D0%B8%D1%85%D0%B0%D0%B8%D0%BB_%D0%95%D0%B2%D0%B3%D1%80%D0%B0%D1%84%D0%BE%D0%B2%D0%B8%D1%87
Please, don't answer that I should just edit it. Try it yourself first. I've alredy tried — there is no this link on the page in edit mode. There is no 'Сайт' (Website) property in the template. If I add Сайт= https://ya.ru this link is replaced with ya.ru, but I want to remove it, no to replace. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.66.152.92 ( talk) 22:42, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
