Hello a day or so ago I tried creating a requested move for the Just like Fire Would article as can be seen on its talk page. However it isn't listed at Requested moves, and the bot doesn't seem to notice it either. Could someone help fix this? Sakura CarteletTalk 00:19, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

and your signature was not added as it normally will do when there is a contested technical request. Not sure why exactly that occurred. WP:RM#TR says:

was in the edit I made. Perhaps its a bug? But it is listed now. OkayKenji (talk page) 05:18, 10 June 2020 (UTC)Uhh... hi there. I'm not a logged in user but I suddenly got random messages about new edits on pages that I haven't even visited (Guantanamo Bay and Jack something-or-other). What's all this about? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.7.219.118 (talk) 08:35, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
How do I add tabular column, images and headings in the page which I created? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Krithika Raj (talk • contribs) 13:27, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
This section is now out of date:
RCV Engines no longer develops or produces the scooter engine. Current engines are smaller capacity single/twin and four cylinder multi-fuel engines used in a variety of platforms including: forest and garden machinery, unmanned systems, hybrid range extenders, fixed and rotary wing UAV, marine applications and more.
Key attributes to the RCV design is its ability to run on a variety of fuels due to its unique combustion. Many engines struggle to run using heavy fuels (jet fuels) however RCV are able to switch between with no measurable power loss. This also allows for the ability to remote start.

Sir this is absurd that some people who have not been authorised by me hVe uploaded and created a Wikipedia false biography of me.
I tried to edit and add the proper true information but I am not allowed to make changes.
I am Deepa Jayakumar neice of former Tamilnadu chief Minister J Jayalalitha.
If the information on me is erroneous or untrue I should be allowed to edit it.
More over I would like to add more details about myself.
Either delete my profile permanently or allow me to make changes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Deepsands74 (talk • contribs) 14:13, 10 June 2020 (UTC)

Can I post my picture — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lucky yvy (talk • contribs) 16:01, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
I created in 3 edits the Draft:Police_and_Unions and manually copied the content into Police_and_Unions, not realizing I needed to change the namespace. Could someone delete the Draft, or delete the article, and then move the Draft to Wikipedia namespace? All edits are mine, so shouldn't be controversial either way.

Dear Wikipedia help desk members,
My name is Konstantinos Patrinos and I am a physics researcher in the field of experimental high energy physics. I am writing an article using my recent Wikipedia account on the inconsistency of some experimental results with the theory of relativity. This discrepancy is substantiated in scientific publications, some of which are considered historical. I have personally identified these problems by developing a physics hypothesis based on the existence of an absolute reference system.
Although my own scientific work is already published, I will start with this first article in wikipedia, because I find that the references in articles on the agreement of theory of relativity to various experiments in social web sites are much more than references to articles relating to inconsistency of experimental results with the theory of relativity.
More specifically, regarding to the specific experiments to which I refer in the article I am now writing, using my Wikipedia account, little or not at all reference is made in social web sites regarding to the problems of inconsistency of these experimental results with the theory of relativity.
My question is:
Since I have no experience in writing articles in wikipedia, what is your opinion, according to what I mentioned before, about whether something should be taken into account or improved in this article.
Sincerely, Dr. Konstantinos Patrinos <contact information redacted> — Preceding unsigned comment added by KPatrinos (talk • contribs) 19:49, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
I may not have formulated the question correctly. The article I am writing aims to aggregate information already published by scientific journals.

Another question. Could I post a paper I have already published, using my wikipedia account, and what is the way to do it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by KPatrinos (talk • contribs) 23:03, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
I would like your help in the following:
1) Does the title "Relativistic and non-relativistic interpretation of experimental results" that I intend to use meet the conditions?
2) In the article I am writing I use references to 10 already published scientific articles, in order to aggregate information from these articles, and I simply quote these information without any additional comment or conclusion. Any comments or conclusions contained in the article will be exactly what are mentioned in the already published articles and will be written in italics.
Does everything I tell you here meet the requirements for writing an article?
Konstantinos Patrinos
Hello I use google on safari browser/iPhone with AT&T. Often my searches result in wiki and I can see link in English but after I click link, wiki is in Japanese. Example result below:

I know that the parameter |nocat=true
can be used to suppress the categorisation due to a template, but I’ve been unable to make it work on templates stored in other namespaces such as this one: ((User:Idell/Userbox ES)). Are there ways to suppress such categorisation without tweaking the original code of the template?
I also want to ask whether Wikipedians can create templates in the Template namespace as they desire. If yes, what could lead to their deletion? Idell (talk) 20:26, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
I'm trying to edit the IgniteXML Wikipedia Page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IgniteXML. I'm not for sure who put this up but I work for the company and that's not what we're called.
I can see where to edit the copy of the page, but there doesn't seem like a place where you can edit the Title. Also, I'm not logged into an account or the one that made this, so would that make it hard for me to edit this page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:630:5470:64CB:D4F7:8578:F518 (talk) 21:32, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
The other day when using Wikipedia a box popped up at the top of the screen saying something about downloading more than one file at a time. I thought I just clicked to close the box but now I can't download more than one thing without closing the window and re-opening it. What did I do and how do I correct it? I don't even know what to look for or under. I don't have Internet at home so when I use Internet in a public place like here at the library I download stuff I want to read about and do it at home later. Please help!!!! I am not computer literate and have no idea how to do much.204.101.136.236 (talk) 22:06, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
At George Floyd protests in Kentucky, it says "Cite error: There are <ref group=lower-alpha> tags or ((efn)) templates on this page, but the references will not show without a ((reflist|group=lower-alpha)) template or ((notelist)) template (see the help page)". However, I can not find either text on the page when I go to edit it. Please ((ping)) me when you respond. --Jax 0677 (talk) 23:37, 10 June 2020 (UTC)
