i have written article based on machine translation of ratan bai (french) and submitted for review also. obviously draft is not accepted. i tried to access books on google but there are no preview available. is there anyway to access these books (particularly pages) to view without membership or bypass paywall. i need help with following books with page numbers:


 * Bhagwan Das Garga, So many cinemas : the motion picture in India, Eminence Designs, page: 320.

please let me know how to proceed jindam, vani (talk 05:12, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * You might want to check out The Wikipedia Library, which seems like a good place to ask for literary sources. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

references template, which should i use?
which one should i use for Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting:

== References ==

or

if there is no toc jindam, vani (talk) 06:03, 23 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Since TOC is normally auto-generated by software, I'd think you would always want to use the former version, to include the section header. But while you were careful to use 'pre' tags on your examples, you forgot to add a colon to the front of the category you wanted to point to. But you would not add either to a category page. Or perhaps I'm not understanding what you are asking.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 06:25, 23 August 2022 (UTC)


 * hello @jmcgnh next time i would be more careful to add colon if mentioning categories... jindam, vani (talk) 07:33, 23 August 2022 (UTC)

how add my previous edited articles to my watchlist at once
is there anyway to add all of my previously edited articles to my watchlist at once? jindam, vani (talk) 15:25, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Not directly, but if you make a list of the pages you've edited (found here) you can add them to your watchlist. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.

2017–18 Segunda División also known as LaLiga 1|2|3. i have used | on diff, is my approach correct? jindam, vani (talk) 15:26, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
 * That is one way to do it, yes. If you want more help, change the help me-helped back into a help me, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 17:23, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

rss/atom feed(s) for my alerts
how can access my notifications using feed (rss/atom)? —jindam, vani (talk) 01:53, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Notifications about what? I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 02:56, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * hello I dream of horses, ok, i rechecked on top of page, its called 'alerts'. sorry. how do i view them in feed reader.-jindam, vani (talk) 05:09, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks for answering. I've put the help me back, and someone who's more familiar with feed readers should come along. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 07:40, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
 * The feeds that Wikipedia offers are outlined at Syndication.
 * Your own notifications, in general, are not available, so far as I know, as an RSS or atom feed. They can be sent via email and some external work might be able to turn that into a feed for you. Otherwise, notifications are delivered on-wiki
 * You can see on the syndication page that some of the events that could result in a notification to you, such as a modification to a page on your watchlist, can be obtained as a feed.  — jmcgnh (talk) (contribs) 07:26, 1 October 2022 (UTC)
