Sources for topicn

I have been working on editing a bunch of topics that simply do not cite sources, and some of those run into issues with notability.

is it possible to get an article approved that simply doesn’t cite sources, or how did those articles end up on this platform

—— Mangoflies (talk) 04:11, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Mangoflies, no it isn't possible; but not all articles have needed to be approved. There is indeed a great amount of junk on Wikipedia (unreferenced articles, promotional articles, etc). How crappy articles have come to be varies a lot; you might look in the histories of those articles. -- Hoary (talk) 04:38, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi User:Hoary

can you elaborate more on not all articles needing to be approved?

—— Mangoflies (talk) 04:40, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

There haven't always been systems for checking candidate articles or new articles. -- Hoary (talk) 05:32, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

So you are saying back in the long ago articles didn’t need to be approved. Mangoflies (talk) 05:33, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Editors have always been, in principle, able to create articles without submitting them for review, and many articles have been added to Wikipedia in this manner over the years. Certain things like Wikipedia:Articles for creation have been set up over the years to help make things easier and try to maintain a certain standard, but they are more options than required. Less experienced editors and editors with a conflict of interest are encouraged to work on drafts first and then submit them for review, but such a thing isn't mandatory per se (except perhaps in the case of editors being paid to create articles). All articles are, however, subject to Wikipedia:Notability, and those that don't meet this standard can be tagged, proposed or nominated for Wikipedia:Deletion if their issues can't be fixed. There are over six million Wikipedia articles and more keep getting added; so, finding the bad ones can be hard, and a bad article can fly under the radar for years until something happens that makes it get noticed. It's highly unlikely that any reviewer would approve an article that has zero citations, but it is possible that the version you're currently seeing is not the same one that ended up being approved. Figuring this out often means you've got to be willing to dig through the page's history to see how the article developed over time. If it has been without citations since it was created, then perhaps see if you can find some yourself or add a maintenance template to it to let others know about it. If it seemed fine early on but got worse over time, then perhaps see if you can figure out how to get it back to the version that was OK. If you think the situation can't be fixed and you've done your due diligence, then perhaps deletion is warranted or at least a community discussion to determine as much is needed. -- Marchjuly (talk) 05:58, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

What Marchjuly says, Mangoflies, pretty much. But as for "If [an article] seemed fine early on but got worse over time, then perhaps see if you can figure out how to get it back to the version that was OK": Figuring this out is not likely to be difficult. You can then revert to the latest version not to have been debased, simply by choosing to edit that version, ignoring the warning you get about editing an old version, and saving, with an informative edit summary. But this is not usually a good way to do it. It's likely that the added junk isn't so obviously junk, and it's also possible that benevolent editors have been tinkering with the poor versions while unaware of how much better the article had earlier been: these editors (and others) may notice your reduction of 10 kiB or whatever and misinterpret this as vandalism. Better, then, to announce and explain your plan on the article's talk page, and wait a couple of weeks for agreement (or lack of disagreement). Then make your edit, with a summary such as "Reverting to Apr 2018 version; see talk page for reasoning and discussion". -- Hoary (talk) 07:55, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Mangoflies If you want to work on articles that are entirely uncited, you could use WP:PETSCAN to find articles in categories of interest to you and that have the template {{Unreferenced}} at the top (which places an article in the hidden category Category:Articles lacking sources or one of its sub-categories). There are currently about 125,000 totally unreferenced articles marked as such. Mike Turnbull (talk) 14:55, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Looking to get discussion/approval on planned updates to a list

Hi, I'm looking to get community discussion and approval for Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Mountains#Updating Colorado 14ers per new measurements. I posted to the relevant wikiproject a few weeks ago, but it doesn't look to be too active. I could just edit the page in question myself, but there's a specific ask on the list page not to update elevations without alignment from editors; I'm looking to get that alignment. Any way I could advertise this discussion/flag for review? Thanks! KilimAnnejaro (talk) 14:37, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@KilimAnnejaro You have already highlighted your plan on the relevant project's Talk Page 8 days ago. After two weeks of WP:SILENCE, I think you should be WP:BOLD and start to make the changes to the list. Your proposed source looks reliable to me. Of course, if anyone reverts your additions, then further discussion on the Talk Page of the list itself will be needed. Mike Turnbull (talk) 17:46, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

article writing

I really want to write a article on never quit by Jimmy Seattle about his time as a PJ or pararescue in the air force. I loved the book but I do not believe I have the skill yet to write this article. Hardwork 234 (talk) 17:41, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

@Hardwork 234 You are wise to develop your skills by adding to existing articles first but you can begin a draft at Draft:Jimmy Settle (author) as soon as you like. There is no hurry in submitting it for review. Note that you appear to have the wrong author name, judging by what I found on Amazon books. Mike Turnbull (talk) 17:54, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello, @Hardwork 234. Thank you for recognising the limitations in your skills at this point. My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft. ColinFine (talk) 22:23, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Could someone who knows WP:MEDRS, please look at these changes?

Someone did these changes at Child psychopathology, I'm pretty sure it's just promotional editing and not actually a good contribution, but I also don't know anything about this topic or MEDRS and don't feel confident enough to revert it. – user usually at 2804:F14::/32, currently 143.208.239.58 (talk) 19:35, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Checked it. As far as I'm aware, it was a good faith edit. If there are any issues you have with the article, you may put it up for discussion at the article's talk page, and perhaps members of WikiProject Medicine so that they're aware. If you think it really was vandalism, fine. 2601AC47 (talk|contribs) Isn't a IP anon 19:47, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

I don't think it's vandalism, it's just all sourced to acespsychiatry.com (the other reference was already in the article, it's just that the link changed). Granted the acespsychiatry article does cite sources.

I'll just let it be, thanks for looking into it. *edit: Apparently I'm not going to let it be, I'm pretty sure the sources cited in the website aren't findable, if they exist at all, they are incredibly vague. – user usually at 2804:F14::/32, currently 143.208.239.58 (talk) 20:02, 10 November 2024 (UTC) *edited: 20:09, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

IP editor. I see that the edit has been reverted. The source is little more than a WP:BLOG and is a long way from being WP:MEDRS-compliant. Mike Turnbull (talk) 15:38, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

How do you make it so the Contributions page doesn't automatically default to hiding good edits?

This is only helpful when looking at the contributions of vandals, but usually the people I look at will not be vandals (such as myself) and it's annoying to constantly have to uncheck that box. interstatefive  21:00, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

As was explained to you earlier, Wikipedia is not a place to write about yourself. If you meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines, then someone else may write an article about you, although you won't have any say as to what is actually in the article.

If you have any questions or need any clarification, feel free to ask here.  miranda :3  04:03, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Queendstorey, nobody wants to read your unreferenced elevator pitch here. The only thing that experienced Wikipedia editors care about in a discussion like this is the quality of the independent, reliable sources that devote significant coverage to you. Those sources must be entirely independent of you. That is the only thing to discuss here in this case. Cullen328 (talk) 06:28, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Admin help needed to move articles related to continued fraction

In a long discussion at Talk:Continued fraction, consensus was reached that

Draft Article and Conflict with Existing Article

1. I have created a draft article titled 'Swindon Health Hydro'. I would like to rename it 'Swindon Health Hydro, also known as Milton Road Baths'. This is because many people in Swindon refer to the Health Hydro as 'Milton Road Baths' and that, for a time, was its official name. It seems that renaming an article, even in draft, is a problem.
2. The bigger problem relates to the existing article 'Swindon Victorian Turkish Baths'. My intention was to just cross-reference this article when creating the new article. It seems that this will not be permitted and that my article should be merged with this existing article. The existing article is focused on the Turkish Baths, which are just one element in a building complex that also includes two swimming pools and an extensive 'dry side' that once housed a comprehensive set of medical services. The Turkish Baths are Edwardian in origin (having been built in 1904-05), though Victorian in style. I wanted to make a start on creating an article on the whole building, its qualities as a building and its historic importance, particularly in relation to the founding of the NHS. There is no point doing this in an article entitled 'Swindon Victorian Turkish Baths', a term that means nothing to anyone in Swindon and wouldn't reflect the article's content. That title would create a barrier when it comes to others accessing, improving and expanding the article. I suspect that the authors of the existing article, who are focused on Turkish Baths, will not be happy with it being subsumed into a much broader article in which the Turkish Baths will play a relatively minor part. Without an appropriate title, my efforts would be wasted and this important building will not be recorded in Wikipedia.
3. There's a third issue. I have no material interest in the building and no connection to its owners (Swindon Borough Council) or its operators (Greenwich Leisure Ltd, trading as Better) other than being a resident of one and a customer of the other. I am the member of an informal campaigning group (Friends of Swindon Health Hydro) that want to see the building fully restored and fully utilised. It has been suggested that this might create some kind of conflict of interest. Of course I am interested in the building or I wouldn't be creating an article about it.

Overall, I want to create an article about the Swindon Health Hydro covering the entire building and its history from 1891 to the present day. With an appropriate title, so that others can find the article, read it, improve it and expand it. I would prefer to cross-reference the existing article, rather than merge with it. I suspect that, otherwise, I will get into a 'turf war' with that article's authors. I did change 'Victorian' to 'Victorian-style' within the article, only for the change to be immediately reversed.

Math help desk?

Is there a help desk for mathematical articles? I've written an article on Agnew's theorem and would like an experienced Wikipedia math editor to take a look at it and edit it if necessary. — UnladenSwallow (talk) 07:39, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Reference desk/Mathematics.--♦IanMacM♦ ^{(talk to me)} 07:49, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello, UnladenSwallow. I know little about advanced mathematics but I do know that an article referenced to just one source written by the person that the theorem is named after is an article with major problems. References to significant coverage in reliable sources fully independent of the topic are required. If this theorem goes all the way back to 1955, haven't other mathematicians discussed it since then? Cullen328 (talk) 08:45, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Organization infobox

I've added an organization infobox to article Nexus Project and have some questions re the parameters board_of_directors, key_people and main_organ. In the case of the Nexus Project, the main organ is the Nexus Project Board. Is there a way to state this and to list the members of the Nexus Project Board, making clear that they are the members of the Nexus Project Board? For now, I've just listed them using key_people.

I'm wondering whether there is a way of achieving a similar flexibility to that provided by parameters leader_title etc. That series of parameters allows one to specify the name of the role.

Parameter board_of_directors, OTOH, doesn't appear to allow that kind of flexibility.

Thanks Misha Wolf (talk) 16:08, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

@Misha Wolf: {{Infobox organization}} has five customizable leader titles. Nexus Project only uses the first. You can just use leader_title2 and place multiple people in leader_name2. This search has examples. Some of them don't even use it for people but aircraft. PrimeHunter (talk) 17:59, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PrimeHunter, I don't need leaders with various titles. I need to be able to place the title of a body, such as "Project Board", in the infobox, and then list the members of that body. I was citing leader_title as an example of a parameter which has a default value ("Leader"), which can be overridden, which does not appear to be possible with, say, board_of_directors. Thanks Misha Wolf (talk) 18:11, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi again @PrimeHunter, I see from the examples retrieved by the search you provided that some others are using the leader_title etc fields to represent bodies, with multiple members, which is also my use case. So I'll adopt that approach. Thanks Misha Wolf (talk) 18:30, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Deletion of Ben McKay (actor)

Hello. Today I proposed deletion of Ben McKay (actor) per WP:PROD. At the time I had not realised that a previous AfD had concluded on 2007-04-08 that the article should be deleted. (The current article was created on 2011-05-01, so I guess it was deleted in 2007 and then re-created in 2011.)

I then discovered that the article was in Category:Proposed deletions needing attention which distressed me, and on re-reading WP:PROD it seems that the article may not be eligible for PROD having previously been subject to an AfD discussion. Should I revert my PROD and submit to AfD instead? Or revert my PROD and submit for deletion under WP:SPEEDY criteria G4 instead? Or just let the PROD stand? I am quite new to editing, so would be grateful for advice from more seasoned editors. I certainly don't want to circumvent due process and discussion, but fundamentally I do not think that the subject of the article is notable; at least, I have been unable to find decent sources to support it.

This is not your fault, notice of the previous deletion should have been posted on the talk page when it was re-created. The person doing so would have seen a notice and should have taken action. That being said, it is true that it is no longer eligible for PROD and will need to go through AFD. Just Step Sideways ^{from this world ..... today} 19:47, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Notability inside lists

i recently saw in List of international schools in Sri Lanka a school was removed for not being notable. Does notability that strict for contents inside lists? Was it removed because it doesn't have a separate Wiki article to itself? VihirLak007^hmu!/_duh. 21:33, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

VihirLak007, applicable guidance is at WP:NLIST. Folly Mox (talk) 21:38, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

@Folly Mox: That section is about the notability of lists themselves. Did you mean WP:LSC? jlwoodwa (talk) 21:46, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Jlwoodwa, sorry, yes, I always get those two mixed up. Apologies also to VihirLak007 for the faulty link target. Folly Mox (talk) 00:23, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Folly Mox@Jlwoodwa Thanksss! VihirLak007^hmu!/_duh. 11:48, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@VihirLak007: It could depend on WP:CSC and what kind of inclusion criteria are established for that particular article. You could discuss this with the user who removed the school at Talk:List of international schools in Sri Lanka and seek further clarification. Given that every school mentioned in the article has a Wikipedia article written about it, Wikipedia notability could be the primary criterion for inclusion used for that article. -- Marchjuly (talk) 14:01, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Creating an article

Hi guys. I'm new to Wikipedia but I really want to be an editor. I search famous people that dont yet have a page and would love to make an article on them, at least a draft, and then add stuff accordingly. Can I do that? I've heard there are moderators on the platform that do not allow new people to create new articles, flagging it as promotional. Please help and give me a roadmap as to how I can start doing this since I actually want to be an renowned profile on this platform! xx

Any help would be appreciated! Noobx9000 (talk) 21:41, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Note that "fame" is not the same thing as notability- such as notable musicians or notable politicians.

You may use the Article Wizard to create a draft, but it is highly recommended that you first gain experience and knowledge by editing existing articles first, as creating a new article is the most difficult task to perform on Wikipedia. I would also suggest using the new user tutorial and reading Your first article. 331dot (talk) 21:48, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

I appreciate the help, will surely look at the links you've provided. One question here - if a person is notable yet doesn't have a Wikipedia yet, could it be made (easily)?

I just dont want to create an article and get it deleted straight away because I am just trying. Noobx9000 (talk) 21:54, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

The nice thing about the draft space is that you can work on a draft with a little more ability to work, rather than if you directly created an article. It will be treated as a draft or work in progress. 331dot (talk) 22:10, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello, @Noobx9000, and welcome to Wikipedia. I remember twenty years ago, when I was a new editor, how I was desperately looking for a subject that I could write an article about, to "make my mark" on Wikipedia.

Now I know that creating new articles is not the only, or necessarily the best, way to contribute to Wikipedia (I've made nearly 26 000 edits, but I've only ever created a dozen or so articles).

If you attempt to create an article now, it is likely to be some considerable time before you manage to add any value to Wikipedia, and in the meantime, while you can no doubt learn useful things about Wikipedia, you are likely to find it frustrating.

My earnest advice to new editors is to not even think about trying to create an article until you have spent several weeks - at least - learning about how Wikipedia works by making improvements to existing articles. Once you have understood core policies such as verifiability, neutral point of view, reliable, independent sources, and notability, and experienced how we handle disagreements with other editors (the Bold, Revert, Discuss cycle), then you might be ready to read your first article carefully, and try creating a draft. ColinFine (talk) 22:47, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Noobx9000: What you've heard is somewhat inaccurate. Wikipedia doesn't have moderators – it has administrators who carry out community consensus. Wholly-promotional articles are often speedily deleted under criteria WP:G11 or WP:A7, or deleted after a discussion at Articles for Deletion. This is because the Wikipedia community has long held that Wikipedia is not for promotion. If you want to write an article that isn't deleted, you should make sure that it verifiably demonstrates the notability of its subject, and is written in a neutral, encyclopedic manner. The article will be judged on its own merit, not by how long you've been an editor. However, new editors often find it difficult to write articles that meet Wikipedia's standards until they've spent some time working on existing articles. So if your article is deleted, please don't be discouraged – there are many other ways to contribute to Wikipedia, and you can come back to article creation later with the benefit of experience. jlwoodwa (talk) 22:05, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

Need some help with personal CSS (not urgent)

In the Timeless skin, I'd like to widen the content/ editing window. As a matter of fact, I'm trying to do this at Wikisource, but the wiki shouldn't matter.

• 
  It currently looks like this.
• 
  I'd like it with the side bars compressed and the main area wider.

Is that possible? Cheers, Cremastra (u — c) 23:54, 11 November 2024 (UTC)

@Cremastra: This reduces the left pane for me at Wikisource:

#mw-site-navigation {width:9em !important;}
#mw-related-navigation {width:9em !important;}
#mw-content-wrapper {width:106% !important;}

I don't have a right pane at all. Those things are further down in the left pane for me. Do you still have a right pane at https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page?safemode=1, or if you log out and view https://en.wikisource.org/wiki/Main_Page?useskin=timeless? PrimeHunter (talk) 00:54, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@PrimeHunter Thanks, but that code didn't seem to change anything. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I think the right panel thing is due to screen size; Timeless is supposed to be more responsive. I'm on a 13-inch laptop, but if I narrow my browser width a bit, the right panel disappears.

I was able to shrink the side panel sizes by selecting the .sidebar-chunk class. Cremastra ‹ u — c › 01:02, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

I've added a logo to the organization infobox of article Nexus Project and it doesn't look quite right:

Publishing a page

Hello there, I want to publish my edit or draft to wikipedia online. How can I publish it? help me with thta. thanks in advance Sohan61 (talk) 17:45, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

You can copy {{subst:submit}} into the top of the article to have it submitted through Articles for Creation. There, a volunteer will review it and, assuming it passes, move it to mainspace. However, I will state that, if you're talking about the page at User:Sohan61, it's almost certainly going to be declined as a conflict of interest. For some more information about writing an article on yourself (which is something you shouldn't do), see WP:SELF and WP:FAMOUS. Departure– (talk) 17:51, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Departure–, WP:COI encourages COI editors to put new articles through the Articles for Creation process, so conflict of interest is not a reason to decline an article at AfC. On the other hand, promotional content could be. TSventon (talk) 23:29, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Do I need a citation for information about a species that is visibly obvious in images of it?

I am working on an article about the damselfly Matrona basilaris and am running into an odd issue: all the sources I can find discussing the species only mention what I assume is the coloration of the females and juvenile males: dark brown. However, it is plainly obvious from images of the species that many of them are instead metallic green-blue. I assume that these vibrantly-colored ones are the males, as this is the case in other species of Matrona damselflies. Again, I cannot find a reputable source that describes this green-blue coloration, but it is obvious from images of the species. Does that mean I can only describe them as dark brown? Or am I allowed to describe them as also being green-blue without a citation, since it is obvious from looking at them? I feel it would be rather odd to have an article describing the species solely as dark brown while images on the very same page show blue-green individuals. Nephila121 (talk) 12:47, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Sounds like editor synthesis of image sources to me. Best to stick with what the sources say, even if it seems obvious. Also, it might be a good idea to check and make sure you're using images of the correct species - I've been guilty of jumping to conclusions in this manner before. Departure– (talk) 14:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Nephila121, Here's a source that refers to "Matrona basilaris, a beautiful calopterygid damselfly with a metallic-colored body and gorgeous wings," and another (from the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Japan) that says "The body of the male ranges in color from a metallic bluish green to a yellowish green, and the wings are glossy black with a purple tinge." I'm guessing that those are both WP:RS. Here's a bibliography that might turn up some other sources. FactOrOpinion (talk) 22:13, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Short translation is disallowed by AbuseFilter for no apparent reason (I'm a new user)

I'm trying to translate the page Quo warranto into Turkish. I translated the first paragraph almost word by word but AbuseFilter is giving me the error abusefilter-disallowed-contenttranslation without any specification. There seems to me to be no formatting issues with my translation. I'm pasting the translation below. Is this only because I'm a new user? I signed up today.

"Anglo-Sakson ortak hukuk (İngilizce: common law) sisteminde, quo warranto (Orta Çağ Latincesinde "hangi yetkiyle?" anlamına gelir), bir mahkeme tarafından edilen ve kişinin iddia ettiği hak, güç veya imtiyazı kullanmak için hangi yetkiye sahip olduğunu göstermesini talep eden resmi bir emirdir. Quo warranto emri İngiltere ve Galler'de yürürlükten kaldırılmıştır. Yaygın kullanılmamakla birlikte Amerika Birleşik Devletleri'nde hâlâ geçerlidir. Quo warranto emri Filipinler'de de biraz farklı bir biçimiyle kullanılır." Takosis (talk) 13:35, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Relisting: How many readers, and percentage figures (thanks)

I'm not sure how to read the numbers, and have read varying tallies and estimates, so would like to know an accurate count/percentage to quote when needed:

1) How many individual readers view English Wikipedia daily? (average or approximate) Does a count correctly reflect each individual reader or does it add '1' each time a different page is clicked (even if by the same reader)?

2) What percentage of these readers view English Wikipedia on mobile and how many on desktop/laptop?

Sporadic LUA Error at line xxx in refs

Did they break something in the weekly back-end work? It's happened across several articles when I could find no discernable coding errors in refs. In one example, I noticed it in one rev and not in another rev, so I restored the older rev, then reveted back to the rev that had the issue, but the error wasn't present after reverting back to what it was in the first place, so I think it's something on the back-end.

Tool for generating ASCII URL does not work

I was editing Draft:Seven Months' War, which included a reference with the url https://ставрополь.рф/city/pasport_goroda/history.php, which generated a Check |url= value error, so I clicked the hidden error category and got to Category:CS1 errors: URL, which says that URLs with non-Latin characters must be converted. I clicked the "IDN Conversion Tool" link, which goes to Internationalized Domain Name (IDN) Conversion Tool and entered the URL and pressed the green Convert button. The result was blank for ASCII and the same URL back again for UNICODE. Why did this tool not work, and is there another tool that does work? Anyway, I fixed the problem another way. I moused over the URL, right clicked, and in the popup, clicked on "Copy URL", and that copied the ASCII URL https://xn--80ae1alafffj1i.xn--p1ai/city/pasport_goroda/history.php.
