The article on "coaxial cable" has a photo of Oliver Heaviside near the top. I would like to change the photo's caption from "Oliver Heaviside invented the coaxial cable in 1880" to "Oliver Heaviside described coaxial cable in his 1880 British patent."

Coaxial cable was used in the first installation of a transatlantic cable in 1858. Heaviside was born in 1850. Anyhow, I have made changes to reflect this in the article itself, but cannot figure out how to change the caption.

Thank you.

 * The best place to ask that question would be on the talk page of that article. But, that said, I don't see any problem with your proposed change.  By, the way, if you have more informatoin on that first transatlantic cable, you might want to add it to the Transatlantic telegraph cable article. Constant314 (talk) 21:42, 8 November 2019 (UTC)

The link to John Haught in the first sentence is incorrect. It should read "John Haught (page does not exist)" David W. Kraeuter (talk) 18:06, 9 December 2019 (UTC)
 * The place for that comment is on the talk page of the article in question. Constant314 (talk) 18:20, 9 December 2019 (UTC)

Help me!
Please help me with...I have tried several times to put links on the page I created, which is "Pittsburgh Antique Radio Society". I want to put links on the page so it is no longer an orphan. I can't figure out how to do so.

 * If the page is an orphan, that means other articles do not have links to the article you created- not that your article does not have links to other articles(it does have such links). You simply need to visit other articles that might need a link to the one you created and incorporate one into those articles. I have also identified a couple other issues in the draft; it needs more sources(and ones not written by the organization like its constitution) that show how it meets Wikipedia's special definition of a notable organization. 331dot (talk) 18:12, 17 December 2019 (UTC)
