I mentioned on article's edit summary stated that i added conjunction "a" to describe the subject's real name.```` 112.200.5.27 (talk) 04:40, 17 October 2022 112.200.5.27 ( talk) 04:42, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
I think I should change my username to my actual name. I have been the subject of newspaper articles in Fiji as President of the Court of Appeal, Fiji. I understand that these arucles won't be captured unless my username is my actual name. I would like to have a brief reference to my legal career in Fiji stretching over 20 years published in WIKIPEDIA. Lonelylawyer ( talk) 04:46, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
[this article] won't be [published] unless my username is my actual name, but that is absolutely not true. Neither your username, nor your actual identity, has any bearing on whether that article will be accepted.
There used to be an article about a minor Peanuts comic character at the title 5 (Peanuts), but it was later moved and eventually deleted. What was the final title of that article, and why was it deleted? The earliest log entry for 5 (Peanuts) involves the article being moved to 555 95472. However, both of that title's visible log entries refer to G8 speedy deletion, without mentioning what the target was, either at that time or some point in the past. I don't understand why a later pagemove wouldn't appear in the log, and I can't imagine what other title anyone would use for this character's article. 175.39.61.121 ( talk) 07:50, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
I've tried more than ten times to add my password with confirmation at least ten times unsuccessfully without luck. What the hell gives? I am 75 years old and have no time for bullshit.

How do I submit a person to be included in Wikipedia? I know someone who is extremely noteworthy in the classical accordion world.

In List of youngest birth mothers, line August 13, 2015, in the column Description, some sources are randomly added. Now the order is 186, 184 and successively 185, 184, 187, 188. The correct order should be 184, 186 and 184, 185, 187, 188. I have attempted to reorder but I get <ref> error. How can I do? 2001:B07:6442:8903:1850:7014:28F:5C20 ( talk) 13:25, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
I've added 12 citations to the Ronit Kark article and am trying to decide whether that justifies the removal of the BLP sources template. Help:Maintenance template removal#When to remove provides various circumstances which justify the removal of the template, the first of which is "When the issue has been adequately addressed". In this particular case, has it been adequately addressed? Thanks

I was wondering if it was possible to create a new page for submission that have the same name of another one not already approved because of the timing and quantity of information. I have created a new page that have less information and reference about a living artist and I wanted to see if this could be submitted before the other one.

Hello,
I'm asking for your help because I'm stuck in the process of editing and correcting Wikipedia.
I corrected the text of an article (/info/en/?search=Hussein_Melikov%27s_House) on 16 May 2021 at 13:17 in good faith and I asked an acquaintance to change the title because I was not authorised to do so, but I have just had proof that I had made a mistake.
I would obviously like to rectify this mistake but I can't.
Can someone please help me to correct this error
- either by reloading the version of 8 September 2020 at 12:51, no longer being in contact with the person who changed the title?
- Or by changing the title of the article from "Hussein Melikov's House" to "Tigran Melikov's House"? I will then take care to rectify the article.

In 1883 show you have one of cast listed wrong. Dawn Olivieri as Claire Dutton, James Dutton's widowed sister-in-law who joins him and his family on a trip to find a new home. She was Jaes's sister not sister in law and her husband Henry was not a Dutton 67.214.13.98 ( talk) 17:32, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
Is there any guidance on wording when describing living individuals? Thanks S C Cheese ( talk) 17:50, 17 October 2022 (UTC)
I saw a citation of Gilvasunner, a YouTube channel which hosted many video game music rips, in the article for Korobeiniki. Of course, while it is acceptable to cite this (though it is disputable, as it is a primary source,) the YouTube channel has since been terminated due to DMCA strikes against the channel, and the videos are indefinitely (if not permanently) unavailable.
