Vinnylospo ( talk) 18:53, 14 June 2017 (UTC)Hi. I tried to create a gallery of the images of the amiibo. However, after I made my second image and went to bed, the next day, I noticed how it was not there, and it stated how apparently it is not needed. I don't understand why. I mean this is a site where anyone can edit. All I wanted to do was show people all of the images of the amiibo. I believe this is necessary. Can you please help me out, and try to allow them to add the images on there, please. I would greatly appreciate it. :) Vinnylospo ( talk) 18:53, 14 June 2017 (UTC)

In Johannes Goropius Becanus, I noticed a few categories listed whose names made no sense to me (I have "Show hidden categories" set):
Curious, I went to Category:Wikipedia articles with GND identifiers, but there was nothing helpful there. I searched for articles with GND identifiers, and it led me to Wikipedia:Authority control#Linked catalogs, where I learned that GND is an authority file for the German National Library and partner institutions— at least, I think that's what
means— and similarly for the others.
I started to add a brief sentence of explanation (basically copied from Wikipedia:Authority control#Linked catalogs and somewhat rearranged) to the GND category page, but realized I didn't know enough about these categories to be sure I wouldn't mess something up. Thus, this question: Would it be appropriate and useful to add such information to this and similar category pages?

In my sandbox I've played around with a slightly amended version of the World Café article, mainly trying to explain what these entail.

I have tried to create a fairly dry article on a contemporary female painter, Elizabeth Colomba, and it has been rejected twice. How do I contest a "speedy deletion"? When I click on the page, it reverts to a blank article. Thank you
! Moniquelong ( talk) 09:00, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
Elizabeth Colomba’s romantic, lyrical portraiture is inspired by history, mythology, and the feminine sacred in which she employs classical techniques in order to interrupt familiar historical narratives. By mixing traditional academic painting with inherently black signifiers including references to her own Caribbean heritage, she has developed a new visual language to include black subjectivity and its attendant histories into the canon.is quite promotional in my view, as well as being unsourced opinion. This would perhaps be appropriate for a signed review, but not for a Wikipedia article. The deletion was quite in accord with Wikipedia's policies and practices. However, with the draft, there is a chance to get the text into good shape without worrying so much about possible deletion along the way. DES (talk) DESiegel Contribs 12:05, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Once an RFC is closed, is it acceptable for an involved editor to re-open the RFC, change the outcome, and then re-close it? For example, imagine an RFC was closed appropriately (after the requisite 30 days and comments from other editors) by an uninvolved administrator or volunteer with the comment RFC has been closed with a strong consensus to add xyz detail. Would it be acceptable for an editor involved in that RFC (one who had voted), to reopen the RFC, immediately change the result so it said RFC has been closed with a strong consensus to REMOVE xyz detail (with the edit summary comment "I disagree with this closure and am changing it") and then immediately re-close the RFC now with an entirely different result? I realize we are supposed to ignore all rules, but the wikipedia I remember has changed a great deal. Something like this I just don't think would have happened 5 or 10 years ago. Is the above simply an example of being bold, or I am correct in thinking this is pretty egregious behavior and should t least be brought to someones attention (whose I have no idea) 23.114.214.45 ( talk) 23:18, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

I recognize that the Wikipedia:Verifiability policy has some strengths. However sometimes this policy poses an issue when a source which is generally considered "reliable" will contain information with varying degrees of truth. At best, the source could contain information that is misleading, and at worse, it could contain information that is simply incorrect.
What is the best course of action when an editor insists that their contribution to an article is valid because of its use of a "reliable" source with "verified" information, even when other secondary sources contradict that information, and especially when primary sources contradict that information?

Post-colonialism, the term bungalow has been adapted and used to refer to any stand-alone residence, regardless of size, architectural style, or era in which it was built. Calling a home a bungalow often carries with it connotations of the price and status of the residence, and thus the wealth of its owner.. The article's lead section says:

I logged in, made a page in the sandbox. I liked it, so I followed what instructions I could, and made a page. I believe I "submitted" it, but not certain. The page is Jewish Prayer for Ramadan. Maribethl ( talk) 17:39, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Does it qualify as an article? I am not certain how to approach that--the rabbi wrote it as a sincere prayer; he is well-acquainted with Ramadan, Islam and Jewish ritual--it is not part of the Jewish ritual, although it could be added by anyone who chose to do so at an appropriate spot in the service. There are no articles or discussions about it that I know of (apart from this one :-)) since it is recently published for public view. I considered adding history about the background of the Jewish response to Ramadan, but that is immaterial to the subject. The rabbi who wrote this sincerely believes in prayer, and sincerely hopes that every thought expressed in the prayer comes to fruition. He is quite busy doing what he can to facilitate peace and understanding in the West Bank and throughout Israel, so my page was simply an attempt to aid him in his work by making the idea of a Jewish prayer for Ramadan available to a wider audience. 173.122.84.119 ( talk) 18:33, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, In the article Mallard, the four images, Plate 221 of the Birds of America by John James Audubon., Calls, Iridescent speculum feathers of the male, and Owing to their highly 'malleable' genetic code, mallards can display a large amount of variation,[23] as seen here with this female, who displays faded or 'apricot' plumage, are shifted downwards when I removed the gallery from the article and include the necessary images. I tried a lot to have proper positioning for the images, but could best get to the images to the right being positioned properly (Male mallard, Sweden 2016, Fledgling, Juvenile, An American black duck (top left) and a male mallard (bottom right) in eclipse plumage, and the audio box A mallard quacking). However, the four images to the left (named earlier), are still way too low. It would be great if they could finish before the Distribution and habitat heading (see this revision for example; however, in visual mode would be better. It shows the current revision in the visual mode below). In short, those four images, could they finish before the Distribution and habitat heading? (and possibly starting parallel to the first or second image in the right Male mallard, Sweden 2016 or Fledgling?) Adityavagarwal ( talk) 19:28, 16 June 2017 (UTC)

Across the world, the meaning of the word bungalow varies.
I logged in, made a page in the sandbox. I liked it, so I followed what instructions I could, and made a page. I believe I "submitted" it, but not certain. The page is Jewish Prayer for Ramadan. Maribethl ( talk) 17:39, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Does it qualify as an article? I am not certain how to approach that--the rabbi wrote it as a sincere prayer; he is well-acquainted with Ramadan, Islam and Jewish ritual--it is not part of the Jewish ritual, although it could be added by anyone who chose to do so at an appropriate spot in the service. There are no articles or discussions about it that I know of (apart from this one :-)) since it is recently published for public view. I considered adding history about the background of the Jewish response to Ramadan, but that is immaterial to the subject. The rabbi who wrote this sincerely believes in prayer, and sincerely hopes that every thought expressed in the prayer comes to fruition. He is quite busy doing what he can to facilitate peace and understanding in the West Bank and throughout Israel, so my page was simply an attempt to aid him in his work by making the idea of a Jewish prayer for Ramadan available to a wider audience. 173.122.84.119 ( talk) 18:33, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Short and sweet - an article that I am working on has several PDF files as listed references. Is there a way to specify the page number in the PDF, or is this even necessary? One file is easy enough to navigate, but the other is 96 pages. Any help would be greatly appreciated. - NsTaGaTr ( Talk) 19:14, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
Follow-up and maybe an answer to my own question: Would adding the page number to the reference title help? {{cite web |url=http://www.example.org/ |title=Title for PDF File, pg. 26 |access-date=2017-06-16}}, for example? - NsTaGaTr ( Talk) 19:30, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
|page=26
rather than appending it to the title field.

Hi, I submitted an article for review last week, but it seems to have disappeared. Not sure if I can't view it because it is still in review, or because it was delete. Can anyone help? Thanks Omerh88 ( talk) 11:18, 12 June 2017 (UTC)

There is a page that I believe should be moved to a different title. However it does not have the "More" > "Move" headings like most pages do. How can I request a page move? Gfcvoice ( talk) 19:13, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
I made some corrections on the article "Identitarian Movement" due to a false translation and they got reverted. What can I do? I would like to have the article corrected, it should be, but I imagine if I redid my corrections they would just get reverted again... 201.241.84.219 ( talk) 06:50, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Hi, In the article Mallard, the four images, Plate 221 of the Birds of America by John James Audubon., Calls, Iridescent speculum feathers of the male, and Owing to their highly 'malleable' genetic code, mallards can display a large amount of variation,[23] as seen here with this female, who displays faded or 'apricot' plumage, are shifted downwards when I removed the gallery from the article and include the necessary images. I tried a lot to have proper positioning for the images, but could best get to the images to the right being positioned properly (Male mallard, Sweden 2016, Fledgling, Juvenile, An American black duck (top left) and a male mallard (bottom right) in eclipse plumage, and the audio box A mallard quacking). However, the four images to the left (named earlier), are still way too low. It would be great if they could finish before the Distribution and habitat heading (see this revision for example; however, in visual mode would be better. It shows the current revision in the visual mode below). In short, those four images, could they finish before the Distribution and habitat heading? (and possibly starting parallel to the first or second image in the right Male mallard, Sweden 2016 or Fledgling?) Adityavagarwal ( talk) 19:28, 16 June 2017 (UTC)
