How do I make this redirect page into a disambiguation page?
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Cane_and_able&redirect=no

I think that is appropriate that keywords "cane and able" should lead to this page http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cain_and_Abel. "cane" is a reference to Dr House's cane, but i think readers might be seeking the Bible reference more likely

please advise, ty Tepi (talk) 23:29, 15 August 2012 (UTC)

Article about Radha Thomas
Hi. I have created an article about Bangalore's Ms Radha Thomas and am contemplating to move it to the AFC space. Before that, I'd really appreciate if you could have a look and give me some inputs, suggestions and advice and hopefully a green signal :-). Here's the link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_creation/Radha_Thomas Varunr (talk) 08:58, 18 September 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion, help?
Hi there,

I just wanted to ask someone who is an experienced Wikipedian whether or not the page I created for an organization that I have researched is okay. I received a 'speedy delete' request on the page by another Editor. I left information on the Talk Page, but do you think it is still subject to deletion?

Any information you could provide me with would be greatly appreciated!

Kind regards! HAmin86 (talk) 11:54, 7 November 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Ask Sponsored Listings.gif)
Thanks for uploading File:Ask Sponsored Listings.gif. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:08, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

Technical problem: edits not visible
Hi. You have apparently volunteered for queries like this. There seems to be a technical problem with the Hugh Nibley article currently. Edits made are not visible in the text of the article, although they remain there if you open it up on the edit tab again. The same applies to the talk page for the article. What could be causing this? Any ideas? 78.146.235.71 (talk) 23:57, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

Claire Bloom - delete photo in info box and upload a new one
Dear Acather96

We represent the actress Cliare Bloom who has got in touch with us to say that she hates the photo that has been uploaded onto her page in the info box.

I previously managed to have this photo removed several years ago, but cannot remember how.

Can you please help me in removing this and uploading an approved image?

Thank you so much.

Best wishes

Privacy concern
Greetings

Could you remove my signatures from wikipedia entries and my contributions page? There's a stalker stalking me and this nickname is connected to my real life identity and I wish not to give information through association with certain subjects.

I'm not sure if this message is private, so I won't link the page until I know this is private. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.75.170.71 (talk) 19:30, 25 September 2013 (UTC)

There is a backlog of over articles, so start reviewing articles! Visit the drive's page and help out!

A new version of our AfC helper script is released! It includes many bug fixes, new improvements and features, code enhancements, and more. If you want to see a full list of changes, visit the changelog. Please report bugs and feature requests there, too!

Image of Lin Homer
Thanks for the update, the image was commissioned by me, as with previous shoots. I will contact the agency and confirm usage is granted. Until then I have put the original image back.

how to bold
If you bold out the letters, it will be more visible to people wanting to see that data, especally those with poor vision, thank you. 74.95.16.5 (talk) 20:53, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi, to bold an item of text, simply add three quote marks at the start and end of the phrase. Thanks, Acather96 (talk) 20:55, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Thanks a bunch for sharing that skill with me. 74.95.16.5 (talk) 21:00, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

I need help
I would like a list of all discussion boards on Wikipedia.EmbracingCensorship (talk) 12:09, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi EmbracingCensorship :).You can find a list at Template:Noticeboard links, and general information on noticeboards here. Hope it helps! Acather96 (talk) 17:00, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Do you support censorship
If yes, please reply at my talk page. I personally believe censorship is wonderful thing!EmbracingCensorship (talk) 17:42, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi again. The word censorship is an ambiguous one, and obviously items which would be the object of censorship are entirely subjective, with sharp contradistinctions being observed across different cultures and geographical locations. If you mean censorship on Wikipedia, then of course I would advocate censorship of clearly illegal material (e.g. child pornography), but do not feel any images or content currently permitted under policy should be the subject of censorship to mollify one particular group's sensitivities; censorship does seems a little antithetical to our cause of disseminating free the complete sum of human knowledge. Hope this clarifies my position :) Acather96 (talk) 17:48, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * So, it is dependent on the type of content being censored, personally I feel all sexual content should be censored, but not violence. Drugs are on the verge of acceptability. Do you agree?EmbracingCensorship (talk) 18:20, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Being that sexuality is, axiomatically, a part of the human condition, I believe that Wikipedia should cover it fully and frankly if it is to serve it's purpose as states above. If sexual images are of an encyclopedic and informative/illustrative/educational nature, I think we would be doing the project a disservice by not including them - the same goes for violent media. I am pleased you say you wouldn't censor caffeine or paracetamol! :) Acather96 (talk) 18:45, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * You know precisely what kind or drugs I meant (illegal), anyway, surely somethings are better left to formal education under professional supervision?EmbracingCensorship (talk) 18:50, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, couldn't resist that! On a serious note, I think you are arguing a straw man here - I agree that if Wikipedia's aim was to provide an alternative to formal didactic education for young people, then drug education should be done in classes. However, this is not our aim - we aim to disseminate knowledge, not to censor or advise about it. Using your drug example, that information could be used by educators, pharmacologists, politicians and even just the general public for positive purposes, removing it would not achieve anything. Lastly, we only provide information that is sourced - which by definition means it has already been published elsewhere. Hence the information, if removed, would still be available, just scattered, out of context and often on a site without the policies and standards of Wikipedia (especially those which pertain to verifiability). Surely you can see that censoring this would lose us a lot and gain us nothing? Acather96 (talk) 19:00, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Yet, sexual content has the ability to dominate thought processes and delay more important things, such as education. The problem occurs when articles that young people are likely to research contain links to other articles about sexual content.EmbracingCensorship (talk) 19:07, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure how correct this is - do you have any empirical, substantive evidence (non-anecdotal) for your two statements, as I'm not sure I've ever seen any research papers or studies that explicitly support those claims, so I'm wary of accepting them as fact. I can't really accept your arguments when you make statements without evidence, unfortunately. Young people should be educated by their parents and teachers about internet safety/sexual awareness, Wikipedia is not a nanny. Optional filters do exist, and many educational or public institutions which young people often use to access the internet often employ these filters. You may enjoy reading WP:NOTCENSORED which explains and articulates our current policy well, and our reasons for adopting and continually affirming it. Thank-you.

Guess what? World censorship is heavily on the rise. UK is often regarded as a free country, but even they have decided to adopt the glorious censorship, see:

The articles are very negative, yet most of it is factually correct. In the end censorship shall reign victorious, wikipedia can either choose to adopt it. Or it risks being censored by ISPs, which will no doubt reduce popularity in the long-run. In the end, censorship will be the only choice in the modern era!EmbracingCensorship (talk) 20:39, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * I requested that you provide evidence for your statements above, and unfortunately you are yet to do so. You're changing the subject to the policy of Her Majesty's Government relating to internet safety, security and child protection to the editorial guidelines of an encyclopedic project which aims to disseminate free knowledge. The four anecdotal newspaper reports do not support the statement that world censorship is heavily on the rise - 'glorious censorship' sounds awfully Soviet, and a strange comment for anyone to make - I must ask, is your purpose here as an editor to edit and collaborate on content, or too push a point of view regarding reversing WP:NOTCENSORED? Your username and current edit history indicates this. Why does this issue concern you. While you are by no means obliged too, I would be genuinely interested to know what your purpose is and why you are initiating these discussions. Thanks :) Acather96 (talk) 21:04, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

How do I add a page border to my user page?EmbracingCensorship (talk) 21:43, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi - you can find information on borders here. Hope it helps! Acather96 (talk) 21:49, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
