Question from SneakyTonk (10:44, 2 October 2022)
Hello! Thank you for being my mentor. I wanted to ask how can i create headlines for and article. So for example write big “design” and under that write about the design of the article im editing. Thanks! --SneakyTonk (talk) 10:44, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @SneakyTonk You can do so by surrounding a word with equal signs, like so: ==Design==  You can find out more at Help:Section. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 20:11, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Orphan tagging
Hi! It just came to my notice that at least some of the articles you just recently tagged as orphans via AutoWikiBrowser are not actually orphans, as at least one article links to them. For instance, I just reverted a few of the orphan tags on some beetles taxa articles just now (Glyptoscelis albicans and Pachybrachis subfasciatus, for reference), but checking your contributions there are more that appear to be the same way. Just wanted to double check with you first though: was this intentional, or was this somehow an error? Or something else? Monster Iestyn (talk) 23:07, 4 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Monster Iestyn I'll double check my AWB settings; I thought I had it set it up so this wouldn't happen. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 03:01, 5 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Monster Iestyn FYI, I followed through on double-checking AWB settings; for some reason, the "only add orphan to linkless pages" had been unchecked. I'm not sure how, but it could be a user error. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 00:01, 8 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Ah, that would explain it... checking the manual for AWB myself now, I see that by default auto-adds the orphan tag if there are less than 3 incoming links. Unfortunately from my experience, for many taxon pages at least there likely will only ever be one incoming link at best. Thank you for updating me on that, in any case.

Question from Ntebogeng Mda (11:54, 16 October 2022)
Hi. I hope you’re well.

Is it okay to write about my company on Wikipedia, as biased as it may sound I don’t intend to promote or endorse it. I want to inform as I feel that’s how other companies have grown too. --Ntebogeng Mda (talk) 11:54, 16 October 2022 (UTC)
 * @Ntebogeng Mda No, it's not really okay to write or edit about your company on Wikipedia. We just put up with it because people will do it regardless of the rules we have (or don't have) in place. People always write promotionally about themselves and the company they work for even if they don't intend to. Other companies grow in spite of lacking a Wikipedia article, and yours will too.

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study to evaluate the effectiveness of alternative algorithms for providing personalized task recommendations through SuggestBot. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information in the consent information sheet.

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.
