Hi! I read about the LGBT month on Wikipedia. I'm gay and would like to know what can I do to participate because my English is not very good. I created "Diversidad sexual en India" on en Spanish Wikipedia "Sexual diversity in India", a GA article on the Spanish Wikipedia. Does that help? Thanks! -- LLcentury ( talk) 19:42, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
I recently finished a book that contains credible information regarding the possible identification of the Zodiac killer. Yet this person is not mentioned anywhere in the Wikipedia article on the Zodiac Killer. I have never attempted to edit an article and I find the prospect to be intimidating. But I would like to see what seems to be a glaring inaccuracy corrected. Any suggestions? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:387:A:15:0:0:0:3C ( talk) 20:03, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
In the 1984 book The Zodiac Killer: Who Was He? by Nancy Smith, it was proposed the Bob McBobface had been the Zodiac Killer. She laid out several arguments, including that X, Y, and Z. [1] These arguments have been supported in several other books, including The Life and Times of the Zodiac Killer by Paul James. [2]

Hi teahouse, if you could review this draft I have been working on Draft:Continental Express, Inc. that would be fantastic! I have tried to source as much information as possible, and I did my best at writing in a non promotional tone. I am open for suggestions! thanks Scotty B 11 ( talk) 19:19, 19 June 2019 (UTC)

at the top of the article. But there are few things I like to point out here. Your article's subject don't seem to meet the
general notability guideline and other
notability guidelines for companies. Also it seems that you used an Wikipedia article as a reference and as per
WP:RS/PS, Wikipedia is not a reliable source. Lastly, your draft is written in a promotional tone. Fix these issues and you draft will be ready for review. Thanks.

I'm just a schoolkid, so I've got no qualifications in art or paleontology or anything at all really. But a lot of the pages for more obscure extinct creatures have no images. So I was wondering, if I found pictures/descriptions of their bones, research describing them and how they probably looked like, etc., and then I made an illustration as accurately as I could based on how I think it might look, is that allowed? Because I could be totally wrong, and seeing as I have no qualifications in anything related to it could be inaccurate or give the wrong impression. Thank you.

I've just translated an article that I found interesting. It's from it/wiki and about Wireless Telegraphy in the Italo-Turkish War. ( /info/en/?search=Wireless_telegraphy_in_the_Italo-Turkish_War)
But it's now threatened with deletion because there are insufficient citations. But I have included the one citation that was present in the original Italian article - there are no more.
This has happened to me on a few occasions and it's discouraging. We are invited to do translations - in my case I can do French/German/Italian into English. If there are citations, I will include them. But if there are no citations in the original article, am I expected to hunt around for them? Is this not a case of 'half a loaf is better than no bread'?

Further to the above, I've included at the start of the main article about the Italo-Turkish war a sentence regarding the use of WT. This appears after the reference to the use of aircraft. I feel there should be a link in my sentence that will lead people to my new, translated article. However, I'm unclear how to insert this. It would be a bit heavy to insert the exact title of the translated article. Can someone pse help this so that I'll know what to do in future? Mikeo1938 ( talk) 20:16, 20 June 2019 (UTC)

Hi folks, my Draft:Cuthbert Heath, which User:Cordless Larry helped me with here at the Teahouse a month ago by providing me a copy of the ODNB listing, was deleted before I had a chance to comment.
It was tagged for alleged copyright violation and deleted five minutes later. This was not an article but merely a draft which I hadn't completed or posted live onto Wikipedia. I copied some material (not into my body text but into my notes below it to refer back to) which I was later going to examine closely for accuracy and, if usable and relevant, possibly briefly summarize in my own words. Would someone mind briefly restoring the draft so I may copy my work and notes either into my sandbox or off-Wikipedia so I may complete my draft? Or you could post it directly into my sandbox at User:Gillywell/sandbox2. There is so much information about this famous individual available, and much of it is inaccurate or contradictory. That's why I was copying some material verbatim until I have examined all of the evidence and made a determination as to what is accurate and what isn't. Thank you.

Hello,
The draft Draft:Pradeo was rejected for the second time.
I added more "junk sources" according to the person who reviewed.

Can these be described as "junk sources" ? If yes, what can I provide as sources to prove more legitimacy.

Hi, I recently discovered a page that clearly was created by the owner of the company the page is about. The editor is no longer active. How should I go about reporting this to an administrator? I believe the page violates Wikipedia's COI/paid editing rules, as well as not meeting the notability requirements. Apathyash ( talk) 16:25, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
How do I create redirects? I know how to move a page to a new page, but I don't know how to create redirects for articles which don't exist to an article which does exist. The reason I want to know is because I've just noticed someone asking a question about Hannibal (2006 TV film) by the BBC, but they were using a different title, so I want to add all the aliases I know of as redirects.
The original title by the BBC in the UK is: Hannibal (2006 TV film) as proven by this [1] and this [2] so I also want to create some similar redirects like:
The alternative title redirects I want to create include:

How and when will it display on wikipedia? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Asargana96 ( talk • contribs) 17:44, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi, I recently discovered a page that clearly was created by the owner of the company the page is about. The editor is no longer active. How should I go about reporting this to an administrator? I believe the page violates Wikipedia's COI/paid editing rules, as well as not meeting the notability requirements. Apathyash ( talk) 16:25, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
How do I create redirects? I know how to move a page to a new page, but I don't know how to create redirects for articles which don't exist to an article which does exist. The reason I want to know is because I've just noticed someone asking a question about Hannibal (2006 TV film) by the BBC, but they were using a different title, so I want to add all the aliases I know of as redirects.
The original title by the BBC in the UK is: Hannibal (2006 TV film) as proven by this [1] and this [2] so I also want to create some similar redirects like:
The alternative title redirects I want to create include:

Hi
I've made some changes to the page on Jessica Martin - /info/en/?search=Jessica_Martin . If someone has time could they give me some pointers about the sort of additional citations that should be included before the template is removed? (I've read the help pages, I'm just not confident yet!)
Thanks in advance. BennyOnTheLoose ( talk) 22:12, 20 June 2019 (UTC)
Hi I tried editing the page "Kenya women's national volleyball team" to get it to pull through the current world ranking as per the template, but failed. (I was able to get it to pull through the men's ranking ….) Can anyone help? I checked a couple of other women's volleyball pages and they had the same issue - pulling rankings from August 2017 rather than October 2018 (as per http://www.fivb.org/en/volleyball/VB_Ranking_W_2018-10.asp ) Thanks!

someone keeps putting inaccurate info on a page, and changes it immediately after I correct it. How can I connect with that person and explain I am the official PR person for individual's page? I do cite sources, but he/she omits them. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EGITH2019! ( talk • contribs) 19:41, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
GA,team forum. I've been working on a band page for "The Swanns". It publishes everytime I exit (since there isn't a 'save' button), but when I go to search for it in the public Wikipedia, I can never find the band's page. What am I doing wrong, please? Thank you for your time. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zrjhqbtc ( talk • contribs) 20:44, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
@RudolfRed: Thanks. I am reading the article now. Is this the formum I should reach out to in the future or should I use the desk chat and try to connect with a specific person for the duration? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zrjhqbtc ( talk • contribs) 21:30, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
@Cullen328, @RudolfRed: Thank you both for your input and help with my article. I am working on the appropriate verifications. Have a wonderful weekend (6/21/19, Fri). — Preceding unsigned comment added by Zrjhqbtc ( talk • contribs) 22:01, 21 June 2019 (UTC)
While using the visual editor today, I noticed that the link function describes Mask and Wig as "building in Pennsylvania, United States." Although Mask and Wig contains a picture of a clubhouse, the article focuses on the organization (a "musical comedy troupe") rather than on the building. I don't know the source of the description, so I don't know how to change it. Eddie Blick ( talk) 21:23, 21 June 2019 (UTC)

I use a VPN, and wish to edit Wikipedia while the VPN is enabled. However, attempting to edit Wikipedia with a VPN enabled says I am blocked from editing Wikipedia because the IP is blocked. Is there any way to get around this? Thanks! -- Sebastian Hudak ( talk) 01:10, 22 June 2019 (UTC)
