I've been trying to update a company page and I've updated the links and citations to the best of my knowledge. However, the citation error message is still on and it doesn't say how I can resolve it. Please let me know how I can identify and resolve these issues? Also, How can I verify my account to be able to add company logo?

Why can’t I listen to the series radio station on my tablet I have to buy a special radio and now I am trying to get into my iPad and I cannot do it why is that— Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.0.242.229 (talk)
Hello dear wikipedians, I have sort of a tricky question if anybody minds answering. If a broadly tbanned user on eng-wiki can’t participate in a deletion discussion of a controversial article, which falls directly under their tban and might be deleted, and instead they create multiple interwiki articles, linking the eng-wiki article in them and what seems like spreading and “saving” the controversial article in other lang-wikis while a discussion for deletion is going on in the initial version of the article (english), can it be seen as engaging with the eng-wiki article cause of linking it in different interwikis, and subsequently, a violation of their tban? I also have reasons to suspect bad faith, as the user didn’t know those languages according to their page, yet they’ve created those translations in bulk while the En version is considered for deletion, and linked the En version in them. Would appreciate the replies, many thanks. Regards, ZaniGiovanni (talk) 10:13, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
I have two questions about vandalism. Is it vandalism to change a correct information by inserting a wrong one? How many acts of vandalism must there be to request protection of the page? Dr Salvus 12:12, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
The malicious removal of encyclopedic content, or the changing of such content beyond all recognition, without any regard to our core content policies of neutral point of view (which does not mean no point of view), verifiability and no original research, is a deliberate attempt to damage Wikipedia. Per AGF it's got to be very clear that they're not just misguided, or wrong. If it's a single account causing problems and you weren't able to resolve the issue through discussion and warnings, then you'd normally request something like a page-ban. Protection is if you've got multiple accounts causing problems in a fairly short period of time. Nosebagbear (talk) 12:39, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Hello, In February, my organization wrote an article on David Phipps (exact title may be: David Phipps, David J. Phipps, or David James Phipps), a British-born Canadian pioneer in the field of Knowledge Mobilization. I believe the article was submitted for review. I wanted to know if I could receive an update on this article at your earliest convenience. Many thanks! 166.48.18.210 (talk) 12:38, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi - while patrolling recent changes, I came across this diff. The article history tells me that 8 bytes were added; six words are highlighted as having been removed, and the same six words are highlighted as having been added - but I can't see any actual differences. Are these different unicode characters or something? What am I missing? The user has made lots of similar changes; I've asked them what they're doing but no response so far; at the moment, I'm trying to work out if the changes are beneficial, neutral or harmful in order to work out what, if anything, needs to be done. Thanks in advance, GirthSummit (blether) 12:59, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi, I ran into a dead citation link on Jarryd James (EP). Alternative Addiction URL isn't working for me (not even the main site). What do I do in that situation? I also couldn't find the WP help file for this particular issue. Could someone please point me in the right direction? Thank you. :) Abillionradios (talk) 13:32, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

parameters. Kleinpecan (talk) 14:18, 2 June 2021 (UTC)Hi! If I would like to majorly restructure a page / make major edits, do I need to request special permission or can I edit directly on the page once I have signed up? The kind of edits I am looking to make are removing subheadings, adding/removing information, etc (as the database that the page is about is no longer available). This is the page I am interested in working on: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HumGen#Guidelines
Many thanks.

When I put a football country season infobox for Abkhazia and make 2020, when it gives me the option to go back to 2019 and to 2021, it gives a red link to "2021/2019 in football" instead of "2021/2019 in Abkhazian football" therefore, if I make an article on 2021 or 2019, the 2020 won't link to it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mwiqdoh (talk • contribs) 14:35, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
You shouldn't be creating articles in other user space locations like you have done with User:2021 Neighbours' Games and User:Badminton at the 2021 Neighbours' Games and User:Badminton at the Mwiqdoh/sandbox/private.info. Create new user pages underneath your own user name e.g User:Mwiqdoh/Badminton at the 2021 Neighbours' Games. Can an admin move these and tidy up the redirects please. Thanks - X201 (talk) 15:16, 2 June 2021 (UTC)

Can you find one not on YouTube I am not allowed to use YouTube right now
Like, if a person acted in his first movie, he did well, and he doesn't have a Wikipedia page. Can he create one about himself? I'm no actor. Just using as an example of what i'm saying. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Natieyamylostrealacc (talk • contribs) 18:37, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
who wrote the article about Donald j trump sounds like a anti trumper to me trump gave up dealing in his company why he was president he did not even accept a penny for being president well i take that back he accepted 1 dollar a year. Because a president is required to be compensated for his work. they say he benefited from his own companies. well duhh even if he dose not run the companies why he is president of course he is going to benefit from them they are his companies even though his kids ran them for him the bio did not mention his peace in the middle east deals or new Canada trade deal. this is a very bias bio of president trump and it dose not even mention how all these governors of the 5 battle ground states. broke the states election laws because legislation is the only one able to alter a election or the fact that he kept millions of illegals from being counted in our census bringing to end over inflated congressional sets being giving because they was allowing illegal's in the census count for said states. can wait to see joe biden i can see it now ohh he was the greatest thing since sliced bread he allowed millions to flow threw the border finally ending the oppressors keeping none citizens out of the country and from voting and let not even talk about how great hunter biden he gladly accepted money from china even had a seat on a corrupt company. let not even talk about how biden funnels money he was paid through his donation funds to avoid offering employees health care that work at his company this is a very bias company and i would not rely on anything you read on it obama fined people for not being able to afford insurance and sent pallets of cash to over seas company that went to terrorist countries. he was the worst president in history — Preceding unsigned comment added by 107.161.232.157 (talk) 19:32, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Hi this is StarsYep1, I created a page this morning and the article was deleted due to using it as a web host. I've realized my mistake; however, may I have the draft back to change the content within without restarting the entire article again? Additionally, is there a way where you can look at my old article and tell me what section was not met to wiki's regulations, so I won't make the same mistake.
Thank you, Selena Chen — Preceding unsigned comment added by Starsyep1 (talk • contribs) 20:19, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
How may i put this politely? This page is simply, don't want to say wrong but it's inaccurate. by that i mean inaccurate from the start. "Cultural Marxism is a far-right antisemitic conspiracy theory which claims Western Marxism as the basis of continuing academic and intellectual efforts to subvert Western culture.[1][2][3] The conspiracists claim that an elite of Marxist theorists and Frankfurt School intellectuals are subverting Western society with a culture war that undermines the Christian values of traditionalist conservatism and promotes the cultural liberal values of the 1960s counterculture and multiculturalism, progressive politics and political correctness, misrepresented as identity politics created by critical theory." The theory is not antisemitic, in fact neither race nor religion (most christians are right of centre but not related too much) play a proper roll in agreement of the idea. Also it is not a conspiracy theory. the most you can say is just a theory but it is not conspiratory. The idea is that people on the left wing applied Karl Marx's theories to cultures rather than economies. Sadly i cannot edit it so i ask if you can please find a way to scale down how left of centre it is. genuinely leaving it at theory (though i prefer idea) rather than "conspiracy." I'm sure you can understand my point just like so from reading this request and from the wikepedia point is. Thankyou very much, 15yr old moderate conservative. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A00:23C6:D09A:B901:E8CF:DFAD:FF8:3DD9 (talk) 20:47, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
