I want to move a series of pages (in my user namespace): I have some pages User:數神/Mersenne/51/2, User:數神/Mersenne/51/3, User:數神/Mersenne/51/4,..., User:數神/Mersenne/51/19, and I realized that I had to move them to User:數神/Mersenne/51/3, User:數神/Mersenne/51/4, User:數神/Mersenne/51/5,..., User:數神/Mersenne/51/20. However, after moving User:數神/Mersenne/51/19 to User:數神/Mersenne/51/20, when I tried moving User:數神/Mersenne/51/18 to User:數神/Mersenne/51/19, I couldn't. I then have to tag User:數神/Mersenne/51/19 for CSD U1, before I could start again. Can someone help me override & solve this problem? 數神, the Lord of Math ( Prove me wrong; My contributions to the world in numbers) 05:06, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
I have a (minor) suggestion to give you. Personally, I think the message in the template {{ Wikipedia:Teahouse/AfC Invitation}} is too "cringey", and does not quite provide the feeling of being soothing. If it were really disappointing to have a draft rejected, saying that "Hello, XXX! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing" honestly doesn't help. I would recommend changing the text to the following:
![]() |
Hello, Teahouse!
I'm sorry that your article submission was declined, because it [''insert the reason of declining in simpler and more politely words'' (e.g. 'did not include enough
good sources' rather than 'the sources provided were poor and inadequate')]. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the
Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the
Teahouse, a friendly space on Wikipedia where experienced editors lend a hand to help new editors like yourself! See you there!

Please reply to me if you think these changes are acceptable. Thanks once more. 數神, the Lord of Math ( Prove me wrong; My contributions to the world in numbers) 06:03, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Originally posted this on the helpdesk, but I've had no reply, and it looks like this is the place for more in-depth questions than there :) - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 12:34, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I'm going to lump 2 questions in here, there's probably no complete consensus, but if someone can help summarise best practice (and point to any policies/guidelines that clearly answer them, I may have missed something).
- I saw a move request at Talk:Pedro_Carlos_of_Orléans-Braganza and found WP:NCNT which isn't too clear about royal families that have no kingdom anymore (Brazil would be an empire, and 'prince' wouldn't be the monarch, although 'prince imperial' would). The problem is that we now have various articles about the family titled prince so and so (compounded by the fact there appear to be two different branches) whilst others (per WP:COMMONNAME) don't use 'prince'. A sub-question is if there is any specific WP:N rule for 'royalty', as some of these people don't have WP:SIGCOV to establish WP:N, at least not in English WP:RS.
- Another question that has cropped up has to do with updating information (e.g. youtube hits, song sales, etc.) Take for example Team_Trees which has a daily-updated table of how much this project has raised. This seems to head too far into WP:TRIVIA, but I'd like to know if there's a hard and fast policy/guideline/consensus.
Thanks all. (not watching, please ping) - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 20:02, 7 December 2019 (UTC) Hmmm, another one:
- Partly to do with the question about updating, what about links to videos (e.g. for music) and itunes/amazon/shops throughout articles? From what I understand, they serve as references to themselves (although not preferred), but what about other situations? music videos on songs, for example? references to people's dates of birth? Any help/consensus? - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 14:09, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I'm Bob Water Voltron, and on this occasion we would like everyone to work on the legacy of the Coldplay band. It would be very clear to do that. Thanks for your attention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bob Water Voltron ( talk • contribs) 19:57, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
If you are angry that you've heard this question asked for the ten-millionth time, please note that this may be a systemic problem. There is nothing personally against you in my "wanting to know why my article was declined." If someone could compare the article I wrote with the same-titled article that was approved, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
If I was asked to self-critique my article, I'd probably say that an encyclopedic entry typically does not include upcoming events. To this I would reply that "Wikipedia is not a typical encyclopedia." To those who would object to an upcoming event's Wikipedia page featuring betting odds, facts, which were subject to change, I can certainly accept this critique.
Please give me additional feedback if you could. I am a bit disappointed about having my article blocked, then replaced by an inferior article at a later time, possibly after the race. Peace to you all, thanks for your work, Adam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Good day1 ( talk • contribs) 05:53, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
As mentioned above, you have the opportunity to improve on 2019 Tour of Flanders, even though someone else created it. Wikipedia is cumulative. There was a recent incident where one person created a draft and another copied it verbatim to make it an article in main space (not the situation with you). In that instance, the draft creator was acknowledged in the article creation history, and the plagiarizing editor was blocked (for that transgression and also sockpuppetry).

While I was editing some space related pages, I stumbled upon Steam and Superheated steam. Saturated steam currently redirects to Superheated steam when in all actuality it should redirect to steam. There is a section called "saturated steam" on the "superheated steam" page because it is illustrative to help describe the departure from equilibrium that superheated steam is.
My question is to see if it would be best practice to do that redirect myself, or if a discussion needs to happen first. My apologies if this is one of those commonly asked questions that I should be able to find myself. Thanks ahead of time for your help! PedanticLlama ( talk) 21:11, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Hello there,
I am a film fan, I saw Olla, a short movie made by Ariane Labed (a famous actrice who has already a huge page on wikipedia). The film is great, and goes in every major film festivals. I've seen it a second time and I checked if a page was here on wikipedia. Not there, so I wrote it, following rules, directions from other article about movies and I did add citations from reliable sources like website from major film festivals (Cannes, London, Telluride...) as well as link from wikipedia : like the director's wikipedia page Ariane (where the movie is already named !) and the editor as well already on wikipedia.
Today I learn that it goes to Sundance, another massive film festival... want to add this on the page and... the page has been deleted ! Can you tell me what happened ? Where is the writing ? Can I modify it to make it exist ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HewnJane ( talk • contribs) 15:45, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

22:28, 12 December 2019 (UTC)There is already on Wikipedia pages for films, TV shows, or music considered to be the worst. In that spirit, I think it would be of interest to create a page for sports teams to be considered the worst. You'd have the 1899 Cleveland Spiders on that list for worst baseball teams. The Spiders were so bad they hired a bartender to pitch in one of their games. I think some of these pages could turn out to be quite interesting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sportsfan1976 ( talk • contribs) 20:32, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

The school provides a broad curriculum which includes, literacy, language, mathematics, science, technology, social studies, sports, art and music. In addition, it provides foreign residential trips for its years 4, 5 and 6 pupils. It has an active sports programme which has resulted in its pupils competing at a national level at the Independent Schools Association championship.

Hi all. In one of my draft pages I'm citing an image that is in Wikimedia and is in the public domain. If the author is listed, is it still best practice to cite them? For reference, the other images I'm using are cited with their creators under CC BY-SA 3.0 or 4.0.

Hello!
I used to edit Wikipedia under the name of CryfryDG (now Renamed user Vg9BT59uw%). My last legacy edit under this account was on 00:02, 31 March 2018. I'm writing this on a global account that I created for Wikimedia Commons. I do feel, however, like editing Wikipedia again. My past account did not have a lot of article edits - so I'm wondering if I should start editing articles under this global account, or request a name change for my "Renamed user" account and go from there?

I am working on a draft for which no English sources have been found, but there are several Chinese sources. So how do I cite a source in another language? What do I put in the title: the Chinese title, the English translation, or both? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 數神 ( talk • contribs) 00:36, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
|title=
parameter should show the title in it original language, here Chinese, but the |trans-title=
should give a translation of this title into English. See
Help:Citation_Style_1#Titles_and_chapters. If the title is given in Chinese characters rather than a transliteration, use |script-title=
Note also that if you quote the source,
MOS:FOREIGNQUOTE says: Quotations from foreign-language sources should appear with a translation into English, preferably a modern one. Quotations that are translations should be explicitly distinguished from those that are not. Indicate the original source of a translation (if it is available, and not first published within Wikipedia), and the original language (if that is not clear from the context).
|script-title=
is not script-title:=
, but rather script-title=xx:
. The "xx" in this case is the two-letter language code for the language the source is written in. Unlike a lot of languages, there are multiple possibilities for Chinese and you can find the various language codes at
List of ISO 639-1 codes. You can leave out the language code out if you like, and the template should still work OK if you do. --

Hello
I dont understand this, how can add a football club to wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FK Karlshamn United ( talk • contribs) 15:12, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
I reviewed Draft:Waukauyengtipu, and declined it, saying that the author should expand on Mount Venamo, including on the issue of whether there is one mountain or two. The author, User:MatWr, replied at my talk page, asking me to reconsider, and saying that there needs to be a separate article. Perhaps I have misunderstood what the author is asking, but it appears that the author is asking to create a content fork and to have two articles that disagree with each other. The author is clearly saying that there are two mountains. If there are two mountains, Wikipedia should consistently say that there are two mountains, or should consistently say that different explorers disagree.
I am asking if other experienced editors will look at the draft and at the article, and whether I am correct in thinking that any discussion of whether either to rename or split the existing article should be at the talk page of the existing article, rather than having two inconsistent articles.

in these last 3 to 4 years i have been active on Wikipedia and now understand and know almost all policies. Can you clarify please? It seems to say you've been editing for the last 3–4 years. If so, can you comment on which exact policies you have learned, and show examples of articles that you have contributed to positively with that knowledge? You seem to relate being blocked to not having an article about you on Wikipedia, as though this were a social media platform, which it is not. If you want to positively contribute to Wikipedia by editing articles you are interested in – other than one about you – please give us an idea of what those articles might be and what kind of work you intend to do. Unrelated, and regardless of whether you are personally blocked from editing, if someone in the world decides to do the research and work to write an article on Wikipedia about you, then they can do that. It will not be "your" article, and you will have no control over what is in it (other than being able to correct outright, verifiably wrong, information). If, on the other hand, you want to be unblocked just to create an article about yourself again, you're going to have a difficult time, and should save your energy for your music and promoting yourself on all the platforms out there that are designed to help you do that. Please keep this in mind in your further actions. —[ AlanM1( talk)]— 05:30, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi guys
Just wondering how long it takes for a wiki page to get published. I have gone in and edited the page at least 10 times now and made the page very informative with lots of links. Is there an amount of time you have to wait or is there a way of publishing it myself?
Really look forward to any response
Many thanks — Preceding

Are there any guidelines that cover the topic of "wholesale editing"?

My submission was not accepted - and generally I can see why. It is too chatty and with insufficient third-party references. I am thinking of rewriting it completely, mentioning only points which have sound references. It will, of course, be much shorter but, once we get it accepted, more can be added later - with relevant references, of course. Is this a reasonable course?

I cna tell you, as an admin who goes through the category of pages tagged for speedy deletion on a regular basis, finding things tagged which should not be can be very frustrating, but I do try to be helpful, or at least not hostile, when i notify a user of a tag i have removed.

comedians such as ... developed their careers in Australia thanks to Dave's encouragement and promotion, while they might be true from your viewpoint, are looked at very carefully, and would need to be cited to multiple reliable sources that assign him this credit. Things like

setting up a page or blog describing his work, I think that's a great idea, just not here. There are lots of free solutions out there, designed for exactly this purpose, but Wikipedia is fundamentally not one of them, per WP:NOTWEBHOST. With that in mind, if you think you can create an article for the purpose of neutrally documenting what the world knows about him and would find encyclopedic, the key is to have the reliable sources to WP:CITE, both to establish his notability and for any non-trivial statements in the article. If you've got that, you'll be fine, and will likely get some help along the way here if you need it. Cheers! —[ AlanM1( talk)]— 23:29, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Dearest Wikipedia,
The barrier of entry for newcomers, even professionals as myself, is too high. I am giving up. I have at various points tried to contribute to this otherwise great forum of knowledge with absolutely credible information.
Was it not supposed to be a forum, where one can contribute within areas where one possess knowledge? Was it not meant to be in such a way so that when someone shares something which is factual and proper - then it will become a part of Wikipedia's knowledge base?
Every time I have just been hit in the head with rejection of anything what so ever. There is no friendly guideline. No hint as to concrete examples taken from what ever one wanted to contribute.
The language you are using, seem to be deliberately hostile to any newcomer. I am not stupid in terms of English, however, any response and attempt to "Guide" us newcomers is filled with jargon, and even ways of using the language which is very uncommon. It may be normal for people who work with encyclopedia and written knowledge administration, but it is very very hostile to newcomers.
I have at times tried to sit with a dictionary to understand the words being used - and while I understand these words as in the words themselves - there is a thick layer of connotation and "business-usage" of the same words, and this too, is not friendly at all.
So, you can shove it. I have a certified and verified IQ - by the way - of 146 - measured by Mensa, who is one of the leaders in such measurements - and I have worked within plenty of areas where I would likely be able to share some 200 to maybe 300 expert articles on various topics. But my few, innocent attempts to start by sharing a few things I know a little about has been met with the "hammer method" - or the "mushroom harvesting method".
Wikipedia has therefore moved away from being a place where professionals can share their knowledge - to become an elitist group who largely sits and polish their own helios/glory by making the very entry of any content so complex so that the ones which this was meant for - have been left out.
Frankly - I am a busy person - and I guess many with me are. I would love to share with everyone here on Wikipedia, the way it was - but I do not have the time for this learning curve, nor the patience, nor the stamina to be mistreated - by administrative, almost Kafka'-like behaviours.
So. You good people - live long and prosper - I will instead post things elsewhere, where everything is more in touch with reality.
And if you want me and other experts in plenty of fields which you have not even started to cover, to write, then you who sit and guard your territory of gibbedigook self-inflated, with arrogant barriers, need to change. David Svarrer

I can see both sides, being both an admin and user of sites. On the admin side, it's the name of the game to synthesize how to interpret what a site's about (and sometimes that includes creating my 'rules', even when they don't exist), which makes it really hard to newcomers. The changes on a site from refinement create incongruities that leave a person confused. The addition of hidden rules cause newcomers to be overwhelmed and feel unwelcomed. However, I feel Wikipedia, on the user side, does take it a notch higher - with retaliation. However, this seems to not happen much in lesser known articles or with minor edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hawaiisunfun ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, DESiegel. Since I see that there is a recent good faith editing exchange in the body of the article text (where someone responded with sources and some language was changed), I want to clarify that I'm not asking about that. It's the simple change to Van Drew's party listing, which has been done and undone several times. Many people have undone this change with comments explaining that he has not officially changed parties, only to have the same edit made again within minutes without any engagement. It seems silly to just keep doing this every five minutes. Surrogami ( talk) 01:50, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
Hello, I'm attempting to add a second sentence to follow the single sentence which currently resides under the "Uses" section of the Methylphenidate page. The sentence I'd like to add is as follows:
"According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, methylphenidate may also be used to manage severe cancer-related fatigue in adult patients with advanced disease or in patients receiving active cancer treatment."
I already know how to add this, however, I'm confused about how to add my citation such that it appears in the References section at the end of the page & is hyperlinked by a numbered superscript at the end of my sentence. I'd greatly appreciate any explanation as to how I should do this. The following URL is my source, which also gives the citation of the article:

Right, so I made a draft about this obscure mobile game, Russian Rider Online. I first asked if anyone know about it on my user talk page and got no response. So I go ahead and make the article about Russian Rider Online and it gets rejected not long after I submitted it. I even included a reference in there (and by reference I mean a link to it on the App Store because I don’t know how to cite). Is it because that many people don’t know about it, because it’s so obscure? I mean, it can’t be that unknown, right?

"Screenshots should be taken at a reduced screen resolution, such as 640x480, 800x600 or 1024x768". Any simple image editing program on your computer will let you reduce image size, and is a simple task. (My personal choice is IrfanView, but MS Paint will do at a pinch!)

Hello Teahouse members,
I'm editing Disability in India and just added a journal article with very many authors, which you can see here. Template:Cite journal#Parameters#Description#Authors mentions a "collaboration" parameter which will add "et al.". I've included it in the ref but it doesn't appear. What do I need to enter with the parameter to make it actually appear in the reference?
Thanks Gazelle55 ( talk) 01:58, 16 December 2019 (UTC)

. I think by using this parameter, you can tell the template to use "et al." when it formats the reference. --

I have a (minor) suggestion to give you. Personally, I think the message in the template {{ Wikipedia:Teahouse/AfC Invitation}} is too "cringey", and does not quite provide the feeling of being soothing. If it were really disappointing to have a draft rejected, saying that "Hello, XXX! Having an article declined at Articles for Creation can be disappointing" honestly doesn't help. I would recommend changing the text to the following:
![]() |
Hello, Teahouse!
I'm sorry that your article submission was declined, because it [''insert the reason of declining in simpler and more politely words'' (e.g. 'did not include enough
good sources' rather than 'the sources provided were poor and inadequate')]. If you are wondering why your article submission was declined, please post a question at the
Articles for creation help desk. If you have any other questions about your editing experience, we'd love to help you at the

Originally posted this on the helpdesk, but I've had no reply, and it looks like this is the place for more in-depth questions than there :) - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 12:34, 10 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I'm going to lump 2 questions in here, there's probably no complete consensus, but if someone can help summarise best practice (and point to any policies/guidelines that clearly answer them, I may have missed something).
- I saw a move request at Talk:Pedro_Carlos_of_Orléans-Braganza and found WP:NCNT which isn't too clear about royal families that have no kingdom anymore (Brazil would be an empire, and 'prince' wouldn't be the monarch, although 'prince imperial' would). The problem is that we now have various articles about the family titled prince so and so (compounded by the fact there appear to be two different branches) whilst others (per WP:COMMONNAME) don't use 'prince'. A sub-question is if there is any specific WP:N rule for 'royalty', as some of these people don't have WP:SIGCOV to establish WP:N, at least not in English WP:RS.
- Another question that has cropped up has to do with updating information (e.g. youtube hits, song sales, etc.) Take for example Team_Trees which has a daily-updated table of how much this project has raised. This seems to head too far into WP:TRIVIA, but I'd like to know if there's a hard and fast policy/guideline/consensus.
Thanks all. (not watching, please ping) - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 20:02, 7 December 2019 (UTC) Hmmm, another one:
- Partly to do with the question about updating, what about links to videos (e.g. for music) and itunes/amazon/shops throughout articles? From what I understand, they serve as references to themselves (although not preferred), but what about other situations? music videos on songs, for example? references to people's dates of birth? Any help/consensus? - ChrisWar666 ( talk) 14:09, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I'm Bob Water Voltron, and on this occasion we would like everyone to work on the legacy of the Coldplay band. It would be very clear to do that. Thanks for your attention. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bob Water Voltron ( talk • contribs) 19:57, 8 December 2019 (UTC)
If you are angry that you've heard this question asked for the ten-millionth time, please note that this may be a systemic problem. There is nothing personally against you in my "wanting to know why my article was declined." If someone could compare the article I wrote with the same-titled article that was approved, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!
If I was asked to self-critique my article, I'd probably say that an encyclopedic entry typically does not include upcoming events. To this I would reply that "Wikipedia is not a typical encyclopedia." To those who would object to an upcoming event's Wikipedia page featuring betting odds, facts, which were subject to change, I can certainly accept this critique.
Please give me additional feedback if you could. I am a bit disappointed about having my article blocked, then replaced by an inferior article at a later time, possibly after the race. Peace to you all, thanks for your work, Adam. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Good day1 ( talk • contribs) 05:53, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
As mentioned above, you have the opportunity to improve on 2019 Tour of Flanders, even though someone else created it. Wikipedia is cumulative. There was a recent incident where one person created a draft and another copied it verbatim to make it an article in main space (not the situation with you). In that instance, the draft creator was acknowledged in the article creation history, and the plagiarizing editor was blocked (for that transgression and also sockpuppetry).

While I was editing some space related pages, I stumbled upon Steam and Superheated steam. Saturated steam currently redirects to Superheated steam when in all actuality it should redirect to steam. There is a section called "saturated steam" on the "superheated steam" page because it is illustrative to help describe the departure from equilibrium that superheated steam is.
My question is to see if it would be best practice to do that redirect myself, or if a discussion needs to happen first. My apologies if this is one of those commonly asked questions that I should be able to find myself. Thanks ahead of time for your help! PedanticLlama ( talk) 21:11, 11 December 2019 (UTC)
Hello there,
I am a film fan, I saw Olla, a short movie made by Ariane Labed (a famous actrice who has already a huge page on wikipedia). The film is great, and goes in every major film festivals. I've seen it a second time and I checked if a page was here on wikipedia. Not there, so I wrote it, following rules, directions from other article about movies and I did add citations from reliable sources like website from major film festivals (Cannes, London, Telluride...) as well as link from wikipedia : like the director's wikipedia page Ariane (where the movie is already named !) and the editor as well already on wikipedia.
Today I learn that it goes to Sundance, another massive film festival... want to add this on the page and... the page has been deleted ! Can you tell me what happened ? Where is the writing ? Can I modify it to make it exist ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by HewnJane ( talk • contribs) 15:45, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

22:28, 12 December 2019 (UTC)There is already on Wikipedia pages for films, TV shows, or music considered to be the worst. In that spirit, I think it would be of interest to create a page for sports teams to be considered the worst. You'd have the 1899 Cleveland Spiders on that list for worst baseball teams. The Spiders were so bad they hired a bartender to pitch in one of their games. I think some of these pages could turn out to be quite interesting. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sportsfan1976 ( talk • contribs) 20:32, 12 December 2019 (UTC)

The school provides a broad curriculum which includes, literacy, language, mathematics, science, technology, social studies, sports, art and music. In addition, it provides foreign residential trips for its years 4, 5 and 6 pupils. It has an active sports programme which has resulted in its pupils competing at a national level at the Independent Schools Association championship.

Hi all. In one of my draft pages I'm citing an image that is in Wikimedia and is in the public domain. If the author is listed, is it still best practice to cite them? For reference, the other images I'm using are cited with their creators under CC BY-SA 3.0 or 4.0.

Hello!
I used to edit Wikipedia under the name of CryfryDG (now Renamed user Vg9BT59uw%). My last legacy edit under this account was on 00:02, 31 March 2018. I'm writing this on a global account that I created for Wikimedia Commons. I do feel, however, like editing Wikipedia again. My past account did not have a lot of article edits - so I'm wondering if I should start editing articles under this global account, or request a name change for my "Renamed user" account and go from there? Any advice from anyone is appreciated – thanks in advance! ToxiBoi ( talk) 01:38, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
I am working on a draft for which no English sources have been found, but there are several Chinese sources. So how do I cite a source in another language? What do I put in the title: the Chinese title, the English translation, or both? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 數神 ( talk • contribs) 00:36, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
|title=
parameter should show the title in it original language, here Chinese, but the |trans-title=
should give a translation of this title into English. See
Help:Citation_Style_1#Titles_and_chapters. If the title is given in Chinese characters rather than a transliteration, use |script-title=
Note also that if you quote the source,
MOS:FOREIGNQUOTE says: Quotations from foreign-language sources should appear with a translation into English, preferably a modern one. Quotations that are translations should be explicitly distinguished from those that are not. Indicate the original source of a translation (if it is available, and not first published within Wikipedia), and the original language (if that is not clear from the context).
|script-title=
is not script-title:=
, but rather script-title=xx:
. The "xx" in this case is the two-letter language code for the language the source is written in. Unlike a lot of languages, there are multiple possibilities for Chinese and you can find the various language codes at
List of ISO 639-1 codes. You can leave out the language code out if you like, and the template should still work OK if you do. --

Thanks, @Darwin Naz. I appreciate your suggestions, and the point to exclude future plans makes sense. I am going to take care of that.

Hello
I dont understand this, how can add a football club to wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by FK Karlshamn United ( talk • contribs) 15:12, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
I reviewed Draft:Waukauyengtipu, and declined it, saying that the author should expand on Mount Venamo, including on the issue of whether there is one mountain or two. The author, User:MatWr, replied at my talk page, asking me to reconsider, and saying that there needs to be a separate article. Perhaps I have misunderstood what the author is asking, but it appears that the author is asking to create a content fork and to have two articles that disagree with each other. The author is clearly saying that there are two mountains. If there are two mountains, Wikipedia should consistently say that there are two mountains, or should consistently say that different explorers disagree.
I am asking if other experienced editors will look at the draft and at the article, and whether I am correct in thinking that any discussion of whether either to rename or split the existing article should be at the talk page of the existing article, rather than having two inconsistent articles.

in these last 3 to 4 years i have been active on Wikipedia and now understand and know almost all policies. Can you clarify please? It seems to say you've been editing for the last 3–4 years. If so, can you comment on which exact policies you have learned, and show examples of articles that you have contributed to positively with that knowledge? You seem to relate being blocked to not having an article about you on Wikipedia, as though this were a social media platform, which it is not. If you want to positively contribute to Wikipedia by editing articles you are interested in – other than one about you – please give us an idea of what those articles might be and what kind of work you intend to do. Unrelated, and regardless of whether you are personally blocked from editing, if someone in the world decides to do the research and work to write an article on Wikipedia about you, then they can do that. It will not be "your" article, and you will have no control over what is in it (other than being able to correct outright, verifiably wrong, information). If, on the other hand, you want to be unblocked just to create an article about yourself again, you're going to have a difficult time, and should save your energy for your music and promoting yourself on all the platforms out there that are designed to help you do that. Please keep this in mind in your further actions. —[ AlanM1( talk)]— 05:30, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
Hi guys
Just wondering how long it takes for a wiki page to get published. I have gone in and edited the page at least 10 times now and made the page very informative with lots of links. Is there an amount of time you have to wait or is there a way of publishing it myself?
Really look forward to any response
Many thanks — Preceding

Are there any guidelines that cover the topic of "wholesale editing"? By wholesale editing I mean when an editor deletes an entire section and all of its references (or any large amount of content) with no discussion, and then inserts that same content into a completely different article.

My submission was not accepted - and generally I can see why. It is too chatty and with insufficient third-party references. I am thinking of rewriting it completely, mentioning only points which have sound references. It will, of course, be much shorter but, once we get it accepted, more can be added later - with relevant references, of course. Is this a reasonable course? Do you have any other views on my submission? Kenpj ( talk) 15:41, 11 December 2019 (UTC)

I've been told not to participate in a certain area of Wikipedia because I'm not experienced enough and my actions are disruptive (which I never intended them to be). What are some relatively safe areas to edit in so that I can build up some experience without getting blocked? LampGenie01 ( talk) 15:13, 13 December 2019 (UTC)
LampGenie01 I am afraid that some users are better at framing helpful advice than others, even if thy do not mean to be hostile. I cna tell you, as an admin who goes through the category of pages tagged for speedy deletion on a regular basis, finding things tagged which should not be can be very frustrating, but I do try to be helpful, or at least not hostile, when i notify a user of a tag i have removed. Note that i don't always know if an editor is an experienced Wikipedian who should have known better, or a relative newcomer.

helped evolve the comedy industry in Melbourne Australiaand
comedians such as ... developed their careers in Australia thanks to Dave's encouragement and promotion, while they might be true from your viewpoint, are looked at very carefully, and would need to be cited to multiple reliable sources that assign him this credit. Things like

important player in Australian comedyare also to be avoided, per WP:PUFFERY. With regard to
setting up a page or blog describing his work, I think that's a great idea, just not here. There are lots of free solutions out there, designed for exactly this purpose, but Wikipedia is fundamentally not one of them, per WP:NOTWEBHOST. With that in mind, if you think you can create an article for the purpose of neutrally documenting what the world knows about him and would find encyclopedic, the key is to have the reliable sources to WP:CITE, both to establish his notability and for any non-trivial statements in the article. If you've got that, you'll be fine, and will likely get some help along the way here if you need it. Cheers! —[ AlanM1( talk)]— 23:29, 14 December 2019 (UTC)

Dearest Wikipedia,
The barrier of entry for newcomers, even professionals as myself, is too high. I am giving up. I have at various points tried to contribute to this otherwise great forum of knowledge with absolutely credible information.
Was it not supposed to be a forum, where one can contribute within areas where one possess knowledge? Was it not meant to be in such a way so that when someone shares something which is factual and proper - then it will become a part of Wikipedia's knowledge base?
Every time I have just been hit in the head with rejection of anything what so ever. There is no friendly guideline. No hint as to concrete examples taken from what ever one wanted to contribute.
The language you are using, seem to be deliberately hostile to any newcomer. I am not stupid in terms of English, however, any response and attempt to "Guide" us newcomers is filled with jargon, and even ways of using the language which is very uncommon. It may be normal for people who work with encyclopedia and written knowledge administration, but it is very very hostile to newcomers.
I have at times tried to sit with a dictionary to understand the words being used - and while I understand these words as in the words themselves - there is a thick layer of connotation and "business-usage" of the same words, and this too, is not friendly at all.
So, you can shove it. I have a certified and verified IQ - by the way - of 146 - measured by Mensa, who is one of the leaders in such measurements - and I have worked within plenty of areas where I would likely be able to share some 200 to maybe 300 expert articles on various topics. But my few, innocent attempts to start by sharing a few things I know a little about has been met with the "hammer method" - or the "mushroom harvesting method".
Wikipedia has therefore moved away from being a place where professionals can share their knowledge - to become an elitist group who largely sits and polish their own helios/glory by making the very entry of any content so complex so that the ones which this was meant for - have been left out.
Frankly - I am a busy person - and I guess many with me are. I would love to share with everyone here on Wikipedia, the way it was - but I do not have the time for this learning curve, nor the patience, nor the stamina to be mistreated - by administrative, almost Kafka'-like behaviours.
So. You good people - live long and prosper - I will instead post things elsewhere, where everything is more in touch with reality.
And if you want me and other experts in plenty of fields which you have not even started to cover, to write, then you who sit and guard your territory of gibbedigook self-inflated, with arrogant barriers, need to change. David Svarrer

I can see both sides, being both an admin and user of sites. On the admin side, it's the name of the game to synthesize how to interpret what a site's about (and sometimes that includes creating my 'rules', even when they don't exist), which makes it really hard to newcomers. The changes on a site from refinement create incongruities that leave a person confused. The addition of hidden rules cause newcomers to be overwhelmed and feel unwelcomed. However, I feel Wikipedia, on the user side, does take it a notch higher - with retaliation. However, this seems to not happen much in lesser known articles or with minor edits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hawaiisunfun ( talk • contribs) 06:48, 13 December 2019 (UTC)

I'm looking at an article (for politician Jeff Van Drew that seems like it's being vandalized.

Surrogami ( talk) 00:27, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
Thanks, DESiegel. Since I see that there is a recent good faith editing exchange in the body of the article text (where someone responded with sources and some language was changed), I want to clarify that I'm not asking about that. It's the simple change to Van Drew's party listing, which has been done and undone several times. Many people have undone this change with comments explaining that he has not officially changed parties, only to have the same edit made again within minutes without any engagement. It seems silly to just keep doing this every five minutes. Surrogami ( talk) 01:50, 15 December 2019 (UTC)
Hello, I'm attempting to add a second sentence to follow the single sentence which currently resides under the "Uses" section of the Methylphenidate page. The sentence I'd like to add is as follows:
"According to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, methylphenidate may also be used to manage severe cancer-related fatigue in adult patients with advanced disease or in patients receiving active cancer treatment."
I already know how to add this, however, I'm confused about how to add my citation such that it appears in the References section at the end of the page & is hyperlinked by a numbered superscript at the end of my sentence. I'd greatly appreciate any explanation as to how I should do this. The following URL is my source, which also gives the citation of the article:

Right, so I made a draft about this obscure mobile game, Russian Rider Online. I first asked if anyone know about it on my user talk page and got no response. So I go ahead and make the article about Russian Rider Online and it gets rejected not long after I submitted it. I even included a reference in there (and by reference I mean a link to it on the App Store because I don’t know how to cite). Is it because that many people don’t know about it, because it’s so obscure? I mean, it can’t be that unknown, right?

"Screenshots should be taken at a reduced screen resolution, such as 640x480, 800x600 or 1024x768". Any simple image editing program on your computer will let you reduce image size, and is a simple task. (My personal choice is IrfanView, but MS Paint will do at a pinch!)

Hello Teahouse members,
I'm editing Disability in India and just added a journal article with very many authors, which you can see here. Template:Cite journal#Parameters#Description#Authors mentions a "collaboration" parameter which will add "et al.". I've included it in the ref but it doesn't appear. What do I need to enter with the parameter to make it actually appear in the reference?
Thanks Gazelle55 ( talk) 01:58, 16 December 2019 (UTC)
