I edited the story about Cuomo and allowing infected patience back into nursing homes I was admonished and the story was reverted back now with Janice Dean, and other reports it appears that stories that are covering for corruption, injuries and deaths by liberals and democrats actually is being fraudulently cover upped, to protect a false imagine that appears to be what Wikipedia is now promoting not accurate and not honest neither equal always leaning and refusing to shed a light on journalism I hope you would look into the accuracy of hidden nursing home deaths and help correct the false narratives— Preceding unsigned comment added by Quotelawrence (talk • contribs) 3 June 2021 02:35 (UTC)
Beryl is in need of a ref. I found a ref at the (Electronic) Code of Federal Regulations, but Template:Cite act does not really fit, and Category:Law citation templates is even more confusing to me. Could someone point me to the correct template, please? 76.119.40.77 (talk) 03:26, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
It doesn’t let me

Hello. I'm sysop at IT wikipedia. Mediawiki:Noarticletext is it still in use? Because you can see that the message when you open a new page is different. Try temp2 for instance. Where (link?) I have to edit to change this message in my wiki. Thanks a lot. Regards--Pierpao (talk) 06:32, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

option to show the names of the Mediawiki messages. So, at the English-language Wikipedia, this link shows that Mediawiki:Noarticletext is displayed. At the Italian Wikipedia, this link, at least for me, shows that various Visual Editor messages are displayed instead. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:09, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Can some one please remove or obscure this link information? It contains 100's if not a thousand email addresses.
https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=VCard&oldid=1003453334
While they should not have been there in the first place they should not continue to be exposed in the change history.
Regards.
P.S. It would be nice if entries that are no longer deemed 'encyclopedic' could just be moved to another feature like supplemental information rather than totally removing the information. The vCard wiki went from extremely useful to the current now almost worthless state, and all the contributed information is only in the change log. It is a shame. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 136.49.65.164 (talk)
Thanks! Sorry about the signature issue. 136.49.65.164 (talk) 08:48, 4 June 2021 (UTC)
A search for American actor Don Burnett directs you to the page of his wife Barbara Anderson. No factual changes need to be made. Just the link. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RichardJKellerJr (talk • contribs) 12:29, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

Can I update my own work as a non-free fair use work, such as photos or other files.Hmht45tgree3d (talk) 12:55, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
@Hmht45tgree3d: No. If you hold the copyright, you have no additional special rights to also provide it under fair use. If it can be uploaded by someone else under fair use (i.e., it meets all ten of the fair use criteria), then it could in theory also be uploaded by you under fair use, but you should NOT mention that you are the copyright holder in such a case, and arguably you should not upload it at all under fair use as you have a COI. "Fair use" is used by others in spite of your copyright, not by you because of your copyright. Since you are the copyright holder, you should either refrain from uploading it, or you should upload it under an acceptable license like CC-BY-SA. -Arch dude (talk) 14:07, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
Hello, How do I send in my article for review/ and or get my draft out of the sandbox to be able to find it when I search for it in the toolbar?
Hello, I'm a regular contributor from Turkish Wikipedia. There is currently a problem that actor biographies are being filled with citations as sensationalist "who is who" news media and websites having related names of biography, who is who and so on. Most are almost identical, copy-pasted from each other, and even funnily from Wikipedia page of that person himself/herself! I'm a hard time with many users about explaining their reliability, most often reasoning I come across is "but they are famous news websites". I'd love to learn how here deals with these kind of problems. Please inform me with policies, essays and discussions about this exact issue available here. I want them in order to see what is unclear about TRWiki's policies then discuss with others. Thank you.--Esmer Günler (talk) 14:19, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
The article about Sister Sledge has suffered repeat vandalism from a user who seemingly has a personal axe to grind about matters to do with the band's membership. They have now uploaded a file File:Sister sledge.pdf, which appears to be a pdf of a legal letter. Clearly this has no place on Wikipedia, but I don't know how to delete it - presumably someone with admin privileges needs to do so. Thanks - MFlet1 (talk) 17:33, 3 June 2021 (UTC)

I'm a VERY occasional WP editor. As it happens, my 93-year-old mother died recently, and I've just discovered that someone created a a WP page for her. She meets the "academic notability" criteria (item 6), because she "has held a highest-level elected or appointed administrative post at a major academic institution" (Academic Secretary to the Faculty Senate at Stanford University, roughly equivalent to Dean of the Faculty at other institutions). But there are minor errors in the current entry. I know of the general norm that individuals should not edit their own pages. But may I edit my mother's page without setting off disputes? I would, of course, provide appropriate citations for all information. Thanks.
Hello,
I am wondering how I would use art catalogues for citation and references. Unlike a book that has an ISBN, these art catalogues are don't have those and many of them are very old. There are dates in which the catalogue was printed and used for specific showings but other than that there isn't a whole lot. I also have some recent ones from Long Island University and Korea University Museum but still wondering what information I need to put or look for to use it as a citation or reference.
