I would like to move the article All Fun and Games to draftspace without leaving a redirect. How do I do that? I know it’s possible because I’ve seen non-administrators being able to perform this task. The Film Creator ( talk) 01:06, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
I repeatedly see the same errors with respect to a geographic location in Canada. People fail to mention the province. For example, you recently posted a picture from "Toronto, Canada." That is geographically, typographically and politically incorrect. It is "Toronto, Ontario," or if you wish, you could say "Toronto, Ontario, Canada." Just as you would never say "Chicago, United States" or "Los Angeles, USA," it is not "Toronto, Canada." I suggest you go through the entire Wikipedia publication and eliminate these references as they are entirely wrong. Drsrwatkins1956 ( talk) 01:24, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
I was wondering if this artist is able to have his wikipedia created. I manage him, and lately he has been taking off with his new single " satisfaction"

As a lover of Wikipedia, since the very early days, I was dismayed to read this BBC News article this morning. It really bothers me. I have always had faith in Wikipedia, feeling it really did get its fact right, and balanced. Now I see that even Wiki can be manipulated. No one should have the right to insert their own bias, it becomes a "who has the most and fastest fingers" to skew the content to match their passion. And now, they have the audacity to boast about it on BBC. 'Tis Sad.

While editing an article, when I highlight some text, it automatically gets copied to my clipboard. If I copy some other text, then that text will not be pasted, rather, the highlighted text will. This is a recent problem, so I'm guessing it has something to do with my settings or it's a Wikipedia bug. Can someone help me fix this? Toofllab ( talk) 08:39, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
I'm working on Draft:Zev Sebastian right now and not a lot of newspapers or websites are published about him. Generally the only good way to prove what im writing is true is to cite his mothers instagram account about him. Is this allowed? Is this suggested? Someone help please!

Never use self-published sources—including but not limited to books, zines, websites, blogs, and tweets—as sources of material about a living person, unless written or published by the subject of the article. AndyTheGrump ( talk) 15:02, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Trying to change the short description of the article Pokémon to "Japanese anime television series", but the existing desc, "Pokémon variety shows", won't change. Any idea how to fix this? QuestFour ( talk) 15:43, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Between 1985 and 1988, I was stationed at the Naval Station Pearl Harbor, Marine Barracks Security Forces, Guard Company West Loch, Naval Magazine Lualualei. The ONLY reference anywhere in Wikipedia to the US Marines stationed on or around Pearl Harbor are in reference to the Dec 7th attack. The Marine Security Force at Pearl Harbor was established there in 1923, and was deactivated in 1993, YET THERE ISN'T ANY REFERENCE TO ANY OF THAT IN WIKIPEDIA!!
WHY NOT? There is a wonderful, colorful, vitally important, historically rich, story of the US Marines at Pearl Harbor, and yet, NOT ONE MENTION OF THEM. Not even a Google search will produce much information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jrfireball ( talk • contribs) 16:19, 24 July 2022 (UTC)

Are non-free/premium sources or contents behind a paywall allowed as citations in Wikipedia articles? Debjyoti Gorai ( talk) 20:30, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
How can I increase the print size of Wikipedia pages? The print is so tiny I can barely see it. I have a MacBook Pro with MacOS 12.4. 2600:1700:CF91:AE20:36:8DC5:72FD:267A ( talk) 22:19, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
