Hello! Ive noticed that every country seems to have their own portal. I then tried to search up Portal:Albania but nothing pops up. Was it deleted or yet to be made? If so how can it be created? Thank you so much! Arberian2444 ( talk) 00:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
Hello. Today I found the List of libraries in Australia. Among other issues, for some states it lists not only every library, but every single library sub-branch, which I feel counts as unnecessarily excessive per MOS:LONGSEQ. Most other library lists by country are smaller. After working on the article a bit (the Queensland public library section), I've realised even if I remove all the sub-branches, it will still be a very long list as there are libraries missing.
The options I can see are:
I had a look at other library and I can't see any pattern of how they're split. I appreciate any advice (including telling me the list is fine at its current size). Thank you a lot! -- NotCharizard 🗨 08:17, 16 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I am new to Wikipedia, can anybody give me any tips and tricks to help out here? Thanks :) LessHuman ( talk) 12:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
I logged on to Wikipedia this morning and the main page was on dark mode, which I thought was being developed and hadn't come out yet. Some pages are normal and some pages are dark.
Does anyone know why.

Hiya! I'm a user from Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia currently writing an article about the Norwegian term skeiv, equivalent to the English term queer, and I see that there is a deleted article (presumably because it was written in a foreign language) here on English Wikipedia. I am curious if there is a way I can see the full text of this deleted article, simply to see if there's anything I can use in this new article on Norwegian Bokmål Wikipedia, or if that's entirely out of the question. I previously had a peek at Wikipedia:REFUND, but I am not interested in having the article undeleted as a whole. I simply want to look at its previous contents. Is that possible?

Hello, I want to disclose my a month old abandoned account, Please let me know if I just have to disclose it on my userpage or does it need any other process? Based Kashmiri ( talk) 17:49, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
Are there any restrictions about who can create content on Wikipedia? For example, can someone create a Wiki page for/about themselves? 173.72.163.36 ( talk) 20:26, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
I want to add this Commons file to Xia Ji but have never dealt with DJVU formatting. Is it possible to add a caption? Thanks, ~~~~

|page=
as you already did (PDF works the same). |frameless
does not allow a displayed caption in the image syntax. The normal way to display images is |thumb
. This image already has an internal border so thumb doesn't look so good but that's unrelated to being a DjVu file. {{
Plain image with caption}} uses frameless and adds a caption outside the image syntax but it doesn't support |page=
so you get the front page. I have shown a hack which adds |page=93
to the template output. It may be too hacky for mainspace use but I could add a proper page option to {{
Plain image with caption}} if you want. The caption appears to be far below the image but it's actually not, the image just includes whitespace at the bottom.

21:24, 16 May 2024 (UTC)Hi! I am trying to find any pages which use the {{ DrugTemplateNotice}} editnotice's CSS class selector. I am not great at insource stuff, so I would appreciate it if someone could check my work. Thanks! House Blaster ( talk · he/him) 20:56, 16 May 2024 (UTC)
intitle:css
You don't need insource for CSS pages.
This search of all namespaces finds no uses. Your search omitted some namespaces where it might have been used.
