good evening mentor,please i need the the tips for editing --FLOURISH N CHIMEZE (talk) 19:05, 30 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hiya @FLOURISH N CHIMEZE good question! it's a learning curve and hopefully Help:Editing is what you need. Mujinga (talk) 08:10, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Mujinga, I have a question, i'm trying to make a page about a Taiwanese animated series which is really obscure and some cites are in chinese, it's called "Brave Animated Series" and i ask you, is acceptable use cites in chinese in the page despite not having so much references in english? --Leopapayon (talk) 02:26, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Leopapayon thanks for stopping by and welcome to wikipedia. Are we talking about Draft:Brave_Animated_Series? Nor having references in English is not necessarily a problem, but the sources in other languages must be high quality. I don't speak or read what I'm assuming is Taiwanese Mandarin, but i can see Facebook and IMDB mentioned in the citations. Neither are considered reliable sources because they are mostly user generated with no editorial control, per Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#Facebook and Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources#IMDb. Hope that helps! Mujinga (talk) 09:48, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The reason why Facebook and IMDB are mentioned is because there are not so many information of the series, so I used the information of the facebook account, and for the IMDB critics is because there not exist critics in sites like metacritic or rotten tomatoes. Leopapayon (talk) 01:04, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Leopapayon this is one of the tough things to understand when starting to edit wikipedia - if the reliable sources aren't there, then the series probably isn't notable in terms of having its wikipedia article. that's no judgement on the series itself, it's just the way wikipedia works. imdb and facebook are generally not acceptable sources per what i said above. hope that helps. Mujinga (talk) 13:09, 10 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

alright, also could you please help me in something:

1. How I do insert notes in my wikipedia page?
2. If i have the poster of the series, how I do to Insert it using Fair Use?
3. How I do tu insert the episode list correctly?

Leopapayon (talk) 23:57, 18 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Leopapayon hello again!

1 - not sure what you mean by notes - footnotes? maybe this is relevant - Help:Footnotes or feel free to ask again

2 - you can follow MOS:FILMNFI - the image must be sufficiently low quality

3 - MOS:TVEPISODELIST explains how to do it and/or look at some other similar articles for inspiration. Mujinga (talk) 01:21, 19 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Sensei BűBBYGoD (talk) 14:47, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there - I left you some helfpul links at User talk:BűBBYGoD Mujinga (talk) 03:11, 3 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hey Munjinga! So just a few minutes ago I fixed some vandalism on a page and I was trying to @ the person who did it (eg. "Reverted vandalism by (@username)" and was wondering how I @ the person (sorry if I worded that weirdly I can elaborate on what I mean if needed) Benamin16 (talk) 01:34, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey @Benamin16! Great job fixing that vandalism. To mention someone on Wikipedia, you use their username in double brackets like this: @[[User:Username|Username]]. So in your edit summary, you could write something like: "Reverted vandalism by @[[User:Example|Example]]." Hope this helps!

Cheers, (a friendly TP stalker) Macrobreed2 (talk) 19:06, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes what Macrobreed2 said! Thanks for passing by both of you. Mujinga (talk) 19:14, 4 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I'm pleased to inform you that I've begun reviewing the article Pat Gros you nominated for GA-status according to the criteria. This process may take up to 7 days. Feel free to contact me with any questions or comments you might have during this period. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Spookyaki -- Spookyaki (talk) 20:03, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The article Pat Gros you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Pat Gros and Talk:Pat Gros/GA1 for issues which need to be addressed. Message delivered by ChristieBot, on behalf of Spookyaki -- Spookyaki (talk) 23:22, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Think I responded to everything on the Pat Gros nom, so whenever you're ready yo take a look, feel free. Spookyaki (talk) 19:29, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for that, I'll have a look now Mujinga (talk) 11:57, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like the article is very close to passing. Outlined a few more minor issues on the GA page but should be good to go after that. Spookyaki (talk) 17:18, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello dear mentor,

I wish to change my name here, as I find my current user name very impersonal. Is that possible? Thank you very much. 40S9350144 (talk) 16:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@40S9350144 good question - you can follow the process outlined at Wikipedia:Username policy#Changing your username, although you could just start again. hope that helps! Mujinga (talk) 16:38, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"start again"? Make a new account with my preferred username? 40S9350144 (talk) 17:03, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@40S9350144, Here are few steps:

1. Please read - Wikipedia:Changing username § Must read.
2. Check new username availability at Global account information.
3. (find this link at WP:CHUS)
   • Add your desired username after NEW=
   • Add a reason for the change after REASON=
   • Do not change anything after CURRENT=
4. While placing the request, double check the username. (In case you made a mistake, see Template:Renameuser/doc)

Follow these steps, you would now be able to request the username change. If you face any problem feel free to write here and tag me (I am a friendly tp watcher) or @Mujinga. Macrobreed2 (talk) 16:51, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks Macrobreed2! 40S9350144 (talk) 17:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for all your help! 40S9350144 (talk) 16:59, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

ooh lovely thanks @40S9350144, I'll share them with @Macrobreed2 :) Mujinga (talk) 18:07, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the careful review @Spookyaki Mujinga (talk) 18:17, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Kudos on getting Pat Gros to GA! The UFF is a fascinating bit of militant history that often gets overshadowed by the other currents in the period. I had the chance to interview Levasseur once and ever since I've wished our coverage of the group on-wiki was higher quality; happy to see that start to change. :) Generalissima (talk) (it/she) 17:41, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Generalissima that's kind of you to say. I bet Levasseur was a character, is it possible to read the review? No worries if you don't want to share for whatever reason. Have you read Diana Block's 'Arm the spirit'? That's a very interesting feminist account of another underground group from the same time. Mujinga (talk) 18:21, 14 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How add images --Marshallwalker10 (talk) 19:37, 20 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

hey there, I am new here. I wanted to write some article for some famous peoples of Nepal because I noticed it wasn't available in Wikipedia . I want your ideas and tips on this... --Samip Sapkota (talk) 15:59, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Samip Sapkota wow yes I would love to help with getting more notable Nepali people onto english wikipedia! That would be a great way to counter systemic bias. As you might have seen, I have created a few Nepal-related articles such as Rukshana Kapali, Pinky Rajgarhia and Squatting in Nepal, but I don't have a connection to Nepal and I'm sure you can suggest many more. It's good you check in first, since it can be very frustrating to create an article then see it deleted, because learning how wikipedia functions does take a while. Perhaps you can start making some drafts as subpages of your own space - what I mean is you have User:Samip Sapkota, your as yet uncreated user page, then you can have User:Samip Sapkota/yourpagehere as subpages. I'd suggest giving Wikipedia:Notability a read to see what a wikipedia article requires, in very short we need significant coverage in reliable sources such as books, academic articles and national newspapers. Any questions, feel free to ask, I'm happy to help. All the best and I left some helpful links at User talk:Samip Sapkota Mujinga (talk) 16:23, 23 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I have personal knowledge of Sir Norman Anderson, and more of his son Hugh. I would like to add a couple of small facts to the article, but have never done this. Please advise me how to proceed. Dr Ken Toop --Kentoop (talk) 00:58, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Kentoop and thanks for asking this question, which comes up a lot. A difficult thing for new users of wikipedia to relaise is that it requires information to be cited to reliable sources (such as national newspapers, academic articles, books from a reputed publisher and so on) so that even if you know something to be true anecdotally it will be deleted without proper sourcing. Nobody disputes what you know to be true, but it must be sourced. If you have facts which you can cite then that's fine, but it would also be worth declaring you have a conflict of interest regarding the Andersons, since you know them personally. Again, not a problem, but good you have stated it and I'd advise giving Wikipedia:Conflict of interest a read. Let me know if I can be of further help on this. Mujinga (talk) 11:08, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

how do i create a citation and how can i add manual references?? --Resear2040 (talk) 17:37, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Resear2040 hellos and welcome to wikipedia! Wikipedia:Citing sources gives you information on how to cite - I normally use Template:Citation which appears for me when i an edit window (i say for me because im not sure which version of wikipedia you are using). Hope that helps! Mujinga (talk) 19:21, 25 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i usually use wikipedia from the website. but anyways thnx! Resear2040 (talk) 03:44, 26 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Resear2040 i also use from the website, but i don't use visual editor and have an old skin as well. in any case def using the citation template helps and if you can reach the edit box, then you can populate it from an isbn or doi which saves time!

Hi sir, I want to contribute new information in MORADABAD WIKIPEDIA PAGE, by including the following information: Guru Jambheshwar University, Moradabad, will be established in the Moradabad district. Prof. Sachin Maheshwari from Netaji Subhas University of Technology, Delhi, has been appointed as the first Vice-Chancellor of the university. --Prof Jagdeep Singh (talk) 13:27, 4 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Prof Jagdeep Singh and welcome to wikipedia! So are you asking how to add Prof. Sachin Maheshwari to the page Moradabad? Despite your anecdotal knowledge, for wikipedia this would need to be cited to a reliable source, like a national newspaper. This means I'm not disputing the truth of your assertion, but it must be verifiable. Hope that makes sense! I'll put some links for you at User talk:Prof Jagdeep Singh. Mujinga (talk) 14:34, 5 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Congratulations, Mujinga! The article you nominated, Northern Bank robbery, has been promoted to featured status, recognizing it as one of the best articles on Wikipedia. The nomination discussion has been archived.

I really appreciated your taking the time to help review Maria Trubnikova for FA earlier this year. I nominated Anna Filosofova, an article about another member of the Russian feminist "triumvirate", for FAC review several weeks ago and it's passed source and image review. However, it's not yet attracted a regular reviewer, and I'm worried it'll get archived soon without someone taking a look and helping develop a broader consensus. Do you have any time to comment on the article soon? If not, no worries of course, but if you do, thank you! —Ganesha811 (talk) 21:46, 13 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I've seen the source editing of articles, and it reminds me of the complexities of coding. How many hours does it take to learn source editing? Is it difficult? --QuadrangleDinglePingle (talk) 00:11, 16 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@QuadrangleDinglePingle welcome to wikipedia, nice name! a lot of the legwork of source editing can be automated, so it isn't as scary as perhaps it seems at first. but i do agree, if you open an article to edit it sometimes the amount of code can be daunting. maybe try the visual editor? it doesn't work for me but may for you otherwise, there's plenty of help articles to read, for example Wikipedia:Citing sources. happy editing, Mujinga (talk) 13:35, 17 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
