Just a pretty minor issue. Sometimes when I'm trying to provide a link to a source from Google Books, part of the url appears in the text of the article, e.g "whose+mother+was+Sukayna+bint+al-Husayn+ibn+Ali" This only seems to happen when the source in question is available in "snippet view" on Google. Any thoughts on how I can avoid this? Thank you.

has worked for me. Re: your: in all scenarios?That's a lot of scenarios so I cannot say for sure that this will always work.
Croatian language is just Croatian, not "Serbo-Croatian" which is just Serbian language (both in latin and cyrilic). Whoever wrote this lie should learn the facts because there was NEVER officially Serbo-Croatian language, except during Communist regime lead by Josip Broz Tito. Also, there was never "Croato-Serbian" which cannot be found at Wikipedia as topic. So, if you want to make Wikipedia better, remove incorrections about Croatian language (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Croatian_language) and completely remove so called "Serbo-Croatian" which was used only AS TERM (in Serbia) during Communist Yugoslavia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serbo-Croatian) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.138.42.104 (talk) 01:30, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
Hello, I am the mother of Jarred Rome. It broke my heart to see the picture you placed of him on his page. There are a lot of amazing pictures of him throwing. Please change the picture of him. Please for me.

Sirs:
The C-5 Galaxy page omits a serious incident in the area of the page that identifies such occurances. I was the Pilot-in-Command and the Instructor Pilot of a C-5 that caught fire in flight during a training mission at Travis AFB in December 1988. All crewmembers survived, but the aircraft suffered extensive damage, having take almost an hour to extinguish the flames. My crew did an outstanding job identifying the fire (some 120 feet away from the cockpit in this giant aircraft, and in a remote compartment), executed emergency procedures perfectly, and then conducted an evacuation. The only injury was smoke inhalation of one crewmember. The aircraft eventually flew again (Tail #70-0450) but is now "retired" at Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ.
There are several articles that document the event, so it is curious that it is not listed on your page. Here is just one: https://www.upi.com/Archives/1988/12/31/Fire-broke-out-on-a-huge-Air-Force-C-5A/9863599547600/
Sincerely,
Col Joseph V. Fagan, Jr, USAF, Ret — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.179.162.6 (talk) 09:33, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

Hii folks, to whomsoever, it may concern.
I edited a page in the past but got no notification of it being accepted or rejected. I tried viewing the edit history but to my dismay, I couldn't find any editing from my account. How would I come to know what happened with my edits or if they were accepted or not?
Here's the link to the page I contributed to. I corrected basic spelling mistakes and helped with sentence framing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pictureoverlord (talk • contribs) 14:12, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
Pictureoverloard Are these the changes you're referring to? As OxonAlex said above, there is no approval or rejection for most edits. It looks like there was no immediate reverting of your edits, so by that measure one could say they were approved. On the other hand, there have been many edits to the article since yours, and it's difficult to say if any portion of the text that you changed is still exactly as you left it. ~ ONUnicorn(Talk|Contribs)problem solving 14:32, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

Eagleash (talk) 14:35, 22 October 2019 (UTC)Fortunately, there is a relatively high number of Wikipedia's articles, which are copied into archive.is. This is expecially useful in countries where Internet and Wikipedia itself are censored, allowing users to bypass the Internet firewall and blacklisted websites with some kind of HTTP tunnel.
The last backup of wikipedia is updated to March 2015 and it seems to be a full automatic copy. After four years, it has to be hopefully repeated and updated to the current online version of Wikipedia. Maybe, in multiple languages, not uniquely in the English one. Hope it helps. Kind regards. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.14.138.68 (talk) 16:51, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
Would anybody be willing to deal with this edit request in a responsible way? I would prefer to stay out of the discussion. Thanks! Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:43, 22 October 2019 (UTC)

Eagleash (talk) 18:48, 22 October 2019 (UTC)I published an article about a film and stage director who asked me to make his Wikipedia page, but it got stuck in draft. I would like to know why and have it published as soon as possible, please. Can anyone help me? He's asking me about it.
I would also like to know how to change the article's name, since he is most known by his first and last name (Alberto Espino), but not his whole name.

So off-wiki, I gotten a message about: What do you try to do by approaching a user that doesn't respond much to messages. It is related to here, with the page creator. While at the same time there is a WP:AN/I issue with them. Then I'm not sure where to respond my inquiry at? One issue is with a user that edits but doesn't respond well. Then the second is, if the user included info, it was added too soon and an IP thinks it's WP:OR. Unblue box (talk) 22:01, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
