Hi. For a few years now, a content creator named Mariah Healey of the website ReptiFiles (reptifiles.com) has been copying other creators content, doing light patchwriting, and then slapping a trademark and copyright on it before selling it.
This included the Spiny-Tailed Monitor article on wikipedia ( /info/en/?search=Spiny-tailed_monitor). Mariah Healey very obviously used an automatic writing tool to generate an article that was literally the first sentence of each paragraph on the Wikipedia page - with no credit to Wikipedia on an article that is not CC-BY-SA that carries a copyright.
It appears someone has further gamed this system by crediting Mariah Healey with a citation *on the wikipedia page she copied* (link here: /info/en/?search=Spiny-tailed_monitor#cite_ref-17).
This seems to be a very clear case of abusing Wikipedia from multiple angles - not only by literally stealing and putting a copyright on Wikimedia content that she *sells* to people but also a case of an editor crediting her for the very article she plagiarized.
Please resolve this. 67.175.103.16 ( talk) 04:47, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
Down at the very end of the page for "categories" it incorrectly says "Education institutions established in 1907" - it should say "Education institutions established in 1903" (not 1907). Also, "1907 establishments in England" should say "1903 establishments in England". I cannot fix these 2 errors up. Thanks for helping. 175.33.243.212 ( talk) 08:57, 7 September 2022 (UTC)

If you read the article - you will see several reliable sources stating that the school was founded in 1903, not 1907. Please fix and thanks in advance. 175.33.243.212 ( talk) 10:15, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
I added Template:Mosques in the United Kingdom to Bradford Grand Mosque. According to the template-page, it should be collapsed by default, but it wasn't, and I can't collapse it by adding a parameter either. Help? Gråbergs Gråa Sång ( talk) 16:53, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
autocollapse
which means 'collapse in the presence of other nav templates'. If you want it to be collapsed all the time, |state=collapsed
