Hi I edited a page yesterday after I had created an account, user name etc. The page I edited is called Forever More (band). It's about a Scottish group/band from the 1960s/70s. When I enter the name into Google it only finds the old page, but if I login the newly edited page comes up immediately. Can you please help?

I reviewed Draft:Emma Lovett and declined it as non-neutral and lacking a proper lede sentence. User:Gmw4313 asked me: “You declined my submission, but thank you for the speedy review. I have entered a lede statement, and adjusted the naming convention (though when the page referred to her husband, it became awkward.) I removed most of the peacock language. I am sure some remains. I am not sure what to do about references. I believe an award winner in an entertainment field that just recently started presenting awards is worthy of a page. Some of the material I put on the draft page, I looked up her e-mail address and asked her. What specifically can I do to make the references stronger, yet maintain the interesting features of putting the page together at all? ” I am not quite sure what the question is about references. The draft does have references. I have notability questions about the subject of the article, but not questions about references. Robert McClenon ( talk) 16:45, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
I received the following inquiry from User679699sof
"Robert---One of the photos I uploaded was deleted. How do I find that photo on wiki so that I can email permissions-commons@wikimedia.org ? Is there a place on Wiki where I can see the images that I have uploaded and those that are being considered or were deleted? Please advise."

Note ignore the space between the p and the ; that is for technical issues. I have found that some articles have   ; in some places. (example: 40  ;MB) This appears to be a space ( ).

I am new (but not so young). I often find outdated links. I tried to edit one yesterday, simply by copy-paste. It was an external link. How should I update an external link? Wimke Kloek ( talk) 21:54, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
If we're on the same page, it depends on how the link is formatted and what you mean by "update". I would first approach this with an assessment of whether the link belongs at all. We see many articles with linkfarms, that include links that fail to meet the Wikipedia:External links content guideline. See more specifically, the subsections on that page for links to include, links to avoid and links that never should be included.
Putting that aside, if the link is completely non-functioning and it's worth it to find a replacement (it's generally much more important to fix links in citations than those in an external links section), then see the section of Wikipedia:Link rot known by the shortcut WP:DEADLINK.
Otherwise I think it would be useful for you to explain the specifics of the difficulty you encountered when you tried to repair a link by copy-paste yesterday. I mean, if the link took the common form [http://www.name.html description that will display]
, then the repair would be to replace the entire URL (making sure you do not erase the bracket at the beginning, and keep the space before the start of the description). But it might have been placed in some other manner, such as through a template. I did see your update to the external link description at
Willem Elsschot, but that doesn't seem to be what you're talking about. Can you advise? Thanks--

Films that have not been confirmed by reliable sources to have commenced principal photography should not have their own articles, as budget issues, scripting issues and casting issues can interfere with a project well ahead of its intended filming date.According to your draft, pre-production has not even begun yet. Additionally, a few of the sources are not reliable enough for Wikipedia. The MI6 Community source and WordPress blog are unreliable because they consist of user-generated content. I would recommend waiting 6 months and reassessing then before creating an article. In the meantime, take a look at Wikipedia:Your first article—it does a good job of explaining our expectations of new articles. Best, Mz7 ( talk) 02:03, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Hello, I would really appreciate some specific tips as to how to improve this page I have been working on Draft:Fife Contemporary Art & Craft. I've been adding references and trying to improve it since it was declined on 7 Jan. I think I have got as many useable news references as I can find. It's been awaiting review for quite a bit more than a week now and I can see the number of articles to review is increasing so I want to do whatever I can to help it to be easier to review again.
I don't want to necessarily add more text in case that causes more problems. But if there's anything you can see that I should do I'd love to know, thanks! Loolah

I'm working to expand an article, and as part of this, I found a source that had been used in the article, Lucrezia Tornabuoni. Unfortunately, it seems I found a different edition than the one used previously, as the page numbers don't seem to line up. What's the best way within the reference structure of that article to add more information from the source? Do I adjust the pages and reference to match the edition I have, or is there a good way to reference two editions of the same book? 1bandsaw ( talk) 17:29, 23 January 2016 (UTC)
I reviewed Draft: David Reimer and declined it as having insufficient in-line citations for a BLP, and said to remove the external link from the lede sentence. I also noted a conflict of interest, because the author of the draft, User:Palm Village, appears to be the same as the company of which the subject is the CEO. User:Palm Village, then wrote:
"Robert, as this is my first Wikipedia article, I assumed after reading about best practices that I needed to cite where the information I used came from. But I am a professional magazine writer, and the entire article is original. So based on what I read now about what needs citing, would the best way to get this article about David Reimer be to simply remove the citations throughout the article and leave the external links at the end, which gives much fuller descriptions of his work?"
Either the standard decline templates are not helpful (and they have been criticized), or my additional remarks confused the author, or the author just doesn’t understand. Can someone else please explain to the author that I said that draft needed more in-line citations, not fewer? Can someone else please explain that we can’t rely on what David Reimer says about himself, or what his ghost-writer says about him, only what independent third-party sources say about him? Maybe I should have said that the overall tone of the draft was hagiographic. Is the author of the draft being paid by David Reimer? Can anyone comment further?

I was looking through a list of new articles recently and came across one that had been AfD'd. I thought the references adequately supported the notability of the subject, so I left a !vote on the AfD page. However, I checked back the next day and discovered that a new editor had made a comment like: "Delete Sources Do Not Show Notability". Their contribs showed that they had commented on 5 or 6 other AfDs (in the exact same manner) and other than maybe a couple of article edits and a comment on a user's talk asking if creating GAs brought perks, have done nothing. I'm sort of concerned that they are not really eligible to make judgment calls on what makes a reliable source or not. (The AfD I commented on and first saw them on had a lot more voting for keep than for delete.) I left them a welcome message with a note about the GAs, but I'm wondering if maybe the policy should be changed to keep brand new people from the AfDs. (Like not letting them edit the pages until they're autoconfirmed.) I do get that a lot of newbies know the basic rules and some that edited as IPs are very knowledgeable, but it seems like people without knowledge of the rules could screw up the AfD process--getting bad articles kept and valuable ones deleted. I don't know. I'm just sort of wondering if anyone else has seen this and is concerned by it. White Arabian Filly ( Neigh) 00:20, 24 January 2016 (UTC)
Sorry to bother folks but I wonder if anyone would care to comment on the proposed deletion of the article about Jamais Cascio. The discussion currently stands at one comment for, one against, with no activity for several days (yes, I have put up a bio rfc).

Hej! I was looking something up on here a few moments ago; information about a skin condition called "Bullae" - now, the term Bullae, redirects to Bulla, which in turn has the redirect to Bulla (dermatology), which then further redirects to Cutaneous condition. Is there some way to simplify this process? All of these redirects must be slowing people down. Can someone please advise me on what could be done with this? Thank you.

Hello, is there any advice about what to do with the disambiguation at the top of this page Qarai Turks I tried to cover all possibilities but it started to look clumsy and unnecessary. Is it best to just remove it? Basically these Turks are also known as Qarai and Qaray and Qaraylar or Qarailar and Qaraei etc. but some of those terms e.g. Qarailar Qaraylar Qarai also refer to some of the cities where they live in Iran and Azerbaijan. I am thinking that since the title has been changed to specify it is about the Turks and not the cities then there is no need to mention the cities in the disambiguation now right? So maybe just remove them and put links to the cities in a links section at he bottom of the page? All advise welcome. YuHuw ( talk) 11:03, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks. Arfisk ( talk) 11:57, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
Hej! I was looking something up on here a few moments ago; information about a skin condition called "Bullae" - now, the term Bullae, redirects to Bulla, which in turn has the redirect to Bulla (dermatology), which then further redirects to Cutaneous condition. Is there some way to simplify this process? All of these redirects must be slowing people down. Can someone please advise me on what could be done with this? Thank you.

Hello, is there any advice about what to do with the disambiguation at the top of this page Qarai Turks I tried to cover all possibilities but it started to look clumsy and unnecessary. Is it best to just remove it? Basically these Turks are also known as Qarai and Qaray and Qaraylar or Qarailar and Qaraei etc. but some of those terms e.g. Qarailar Qaraylar Qarai also refer to some of the cities where they live in Iran and Azerbaijan. I am thinking that since the title has been changed to specify it is about the Turks and not the cities then there is no need to mention the cities in the disambiguation now right? So maybe just remove them and put links to the cities in a links section at he bottom of the page? All advise welcome. YuHuw ( talk) 11:03, 24 January 2016 (UTC)

Hi all,
I just came across the page Popular science which Vulgarisation also points to.
I have already posted on the Talk page about the Wiktionary definition indicating that one could be seen as a subset of another.
Is there anything to be done beyond that?

Wish this were easier. Sorry to bother you. Could you give me instructions on two options? 1) Content I've generated was not finalized, simply saved, and then it was exposed to a reviewer and given "speedy deletion" stamp. How can it get the new copy evaluated for appropriateness? 2) If not appropriate, how do I simply get out of this mess and have everything deleted?

Is there any way by which I can track the articles proposed for merger tagged with a particular WP tag, say for example WP Jainism? -- Pankaj Jain Capankajsmilyo ( talk · contribs · count) 06:22, 25 January 2016 (UTC)
