Hi, I was wondering, how can I edit my homepage? I'd like to add some badges, like: "This user is such an such"

Thanks! --Dan the protestant (talk) 11:23, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dan the protestant that's a good question, I'd suggest giving Wikipedia:Userboxes a read and also considering how much/little information you want to give out about yourself on wikipedia. I'll drop some other helpful links at User talk:Dan the protestant and feel to ask me about anything else wikipedia-related. Happy editing!! Mujinga (talk) 13:24, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Dan the protestant Just dropping in to note that if you're underage, you should read WP:YOUNG before writing anything about yourself at all. (Well, saying "this user is protestant" is fine, I suppose.) -- asilvering (talk) 17:01, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How do I create a Chicano rapper --BasecTheOne (talk) 06:17, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @BasecTheOne that is an excellent question. That list is a list of Chicano rappers with their own wikipedia article, so you'd either need to edit that page to add another article, or make the article then add it to the list. I'll put some links on your talkpage at User talk:BasecTheOne which will hopefully be helpful and/or feel free to ask me further questions. Mujinga (talk) 14:36, 7 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, there is an svg file in a page that is supposed to show the (now defunct) companies logo, it is wildly inaccurate and I wanted to replace it with an accurate logo I have created myself, how do I do this? --Robishungry (talk) 11:28, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hi @Robishungry you can follow the instructions at Wikipedia:File upload wizard - it's worth workin through this methodically and reading the linked pages such as Wikipedia:Image use policy, since if your image is not properly attributed it will most likely be deleted in the blink of an eye! happy editing Mujinga (talk) 13:49, 8 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mujinga. Not sure if you're reading this. I created an account to fix a mistake in an article about Dante Alighieri. However, I am inexperienced in editing articles. Could you please help me? --SCC3sc0 (talk) 11:49, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @SCC3sc0 sure let's talk it through. Tell me about the edit you want to make, what does it say? Mujinga (talk) 17:47, 13 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

MY HOME PAGE IS MY EMAIL ADDRESS. IS THAT CORRECT? CAN IT BE CHANGED? --GP377 (talk) 17:23, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So ... your userpage is User:GP377. Is that what you mean? Happy to help more if you can get more specific? Mujinga (talk) 22:15, 16 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What does a "Redirect" message mean? GP377 (talk) 14:42, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GP377 A redirect is a page which automatically sends visitors to another page, usually an article or section of an article - Wikipedia:Redirect - does that answer your question? Mujinga (talk) 14:45, 23 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not really. I understand what a "Redirect" is. I don't understand why it was re-directed. Could it be because the submitted document had the same name that was imbedded in the location where the re-direct went. If so, how can you submit something that has the same name but the content is different?

Thanks for your assistance. GP377 (talk) 05:21, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GP377 ok which page are we talking about? Mujinga (talk) 10:16, 24 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was actually looking at a different page so I just asked a general question so I wanted to understand how a”rediect” works. How can a “Re-direct be changed? GP377 (talk) 06:25, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@GP377 This question is still a bit vague to me, so let me give a concrete example and see if it answers it. Ingeborg Barz was until recently a redirect until I made it an article. I did so by editing over the redirect and adding new sourced information, as can be seen in the diff I linked. Does that help? I can appreciate this might be a quite confusing explanation, but let me know, happy to discuss further Mujinga (talk) 10:11, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes this is more helpful. On a different note how I can a delete some photos I uploaded. I hit delete on my computer put nothing happened. GP377 (talk) 18:00, 4 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If it meets the conditions, I'd use Template:Db-g7, bu again, that's a rather vague question - perhaps asking at Wikipedia:Teahouse might help to get more answers, but I would encourage you to add information such as which photo, uploaded where, with links. Good luck! Mujinga (talk) 01:20, 5 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Could I ask how to add those infoboxes to my user page? I would love to display my proficiency in different languages and my experiences and (informal) disclosures to make. Thank you! --Joséthewikier (talk) 07:41, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Joséthewikier you are talking about userboxes I think! So if you give Wikipedia:Userboxes a read it should explain more. Infoboxes in wikipedia terminology are something else which you can read about here if you are interested. By the way, as asilvering helpfulu pointed out above in their answer to Dan the protestant, "if you're underage, you should read WP:YOUNG before writing anything about yourself at all." It is def worth bearing in mind how much info you want to give away about yourself online in a publicly accessiblte website. Feel free to drop me a line with any other questions and happy editing! Mujinga (talk) 11:00, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

thank you! Joséthewikier (talk) 22:14, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Joséthewikier happy to help! Mujinga (talk) 23:54, 19 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! So, how exactly does editing work? --TurtleNation970 (talk) 02:54, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hiya that's exciting you are at the start of your wikiadventure! i'd suggest giving Help:Introduction a read, feel free to ask me anything else Mujinga (talk) 19:25, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm trying to resolve the issues on this article. Can you give me some guidance how to get this "issues" box removed, and clear up any conflict of interest? --DPHMSmith (talk) 18:05, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@DPHMSmith hiya, do you yourself have a personal connection to Manisha Juthani? It's not a problem if you do, but then it should be declared per Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and that would resolve the "A major contributor to this article appears to have a close connection with its subject" tag. For the orphan tag, that can be easily resolved by finding another wikipedia article from which to link to Manisha Juthani, explained by Wikipedia:Orphan. It's a lot to absorb at first but in my opinion worth it! Lemme kniw if you have further questions and happy editing - Mujinga (talk) 19:20, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, thank you for your quick response. I am a colleague of Manisha Juthani, and was just asked to compile and post this information. It is not for any personal gain on either end. I am a novice at Wikipedia. Are you able to give me detailed instructions on how to resolve this issue? Thank you. DPHMSmith (talk) 19:28, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see ... then please read carefully the blue-linked pages I gave you above Mujinga (talk) 00:53, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. In the interim, how can I take down or delete the page while I work on this? DPHMSmith (talk) 14:26, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well you need to disclose your COI per Wikipedia:Conflict_of_interest#howtodisclose. I just moved the page out of public-facing webspace into Draft:Manisha_Juthani so you can carry on working on it there, let me know if you'd like some feedback when you feel it's ready to republish Mujinga (talk) 14:45, 22 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was just using Wikipedia and I have got a notification about a Investigation page, where my username was mentioned. Can you help me about that what is the Problem with my account. --Est1997 (talk) 19:19, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The investigation page is :

Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Nauman335

Please fix my issue because I'm not the same person account user or a Sock. Est1997 (talk) 19:22, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Est1997 huh yeah i see the discussion at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Nauman335. that;'s above my paygrade to give an opinion on really, but i'd say if you are a genuine new user this will get resolved and if you are a sockpuppet, I'd advise coming clean. Happy editing Mujinga (talk) 19:22, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Est1997 sorry that's not something i can fix for you Mujinga (talk) 19:23, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

By God I'm a Clean not a Sockpuppet. Est1997 (talk) 19:23, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If so, then you'll be fine! Happy editing Mujinga (talk) 19:25, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I bought a new mobile today and installed Wikipedia and made an account for the first time but the Wikipedia Administrators want to block me. Please don't do that. This will create a problem for me as a Sockpuppet user. Est1997 (talk) 19:27, 21 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Mujinga! I just edited my first Wikipedia page on "man flu." I have a few questions:

1) Can I get rid of the image? It's not adding anything to the article, and the caption cannot be verified as true. I only see an option for "change image." 2) Can I delete citations [1] and [2] and the [failed verification] tag? I changed the lead so that it does not apply anymore. Thank you! Motheryoga --Motheryoga (talk) 21:35, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Motheryoga hiya man flu doesn't seem like a busy page with lots of edits from looking at the history but I'd stil suggest first asking at Talk:Man_flu to see what other editors think about the proposed change. Do you have another image in mind? Also, if you changed the lead, is it still summarising sourced information? I ask this because sure you can delete the failed verification if the source is no longer used, but then you'd need to be using a different ciatation for the info that remains. Pretty much everything on wikipedia needs to be cited, and for example I'm not sure where "However, the scientific community continues to debate the validity and significance of perceived sex differences in symptom severity and immune response to viral illnesses" is referenced. cheers, Mujinga (talk) 21:46, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hi - thanks for the advice. totally makes sense. yes, it is still summarizing sourced information, but i can make that clearer. i'll also check out the talk page. Motheryoga (talk) 16:33, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a laudable aim however if this means you are here to promote your own project I'd advise you not to do that since it's hard to write an encyclopedic article about something you are very involved with Mujinga (talk) 23:13, 9 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
