App to add photos
Dear User:Mx. Granger Can you make an app that will prompt a user to take a photo when near an article's location when there is no photo? If the app can add categories too, that would be great. Geraldshields11 (talk) 23:34, 22 March 2023 (UTC)
 * That's an interesting idea. I've never done any mobile app development, but maybe that's something that could be added to the Wikimedia Commons mobile app. That app already lets the user check for nearby locations that need pictures (and upload photos with categories), but as far as I know it doesn't notify the user when they're close to one of the locations. —Mx.

Question on article "Gender Neutrality"
Dear Mx. Granger,

My name is Alex from Germany and I have a question regarding the article "Gender Neutrality" to which you also made contributions. Following passage:

"There are also cases where a distinct female form exists, but the basic (or "male") form does not intrinsically indicate a male (such as by including man), and can equally well be applied to any member of the profession, whether male or female or of unspecified sex. Examples include actor and actress; usher and usherette; comedian and comedienne. In such cases, proponents of gender-neutral language generally advocate the non-use of the distinct female form (always using comedian rather than comedienne, for example, even if the referent is known to be a woman)."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_neutrality_in_English

What does "such as by including man" refer to? Does this simply mean that, for example, the word "actor" does not intrinsically indicate a male in contrast to other words like "fireman" which intrinsically include "man"?

Or does the reference in the parantheses want to tell something else?

Thanks for your feedback in advance!

Kind regards

Question from Matieland on Citing sources/Example edits for different methods (09:43, 1 May 2023)
Hello,is it possible to change from Thanks. KIND REGARDS.MATIELAND --Matieland(Matieland,talk page: Matieland) 09:43, 1 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi Matieland, thanks for the message. I'm not sure I understand your question. Is the concern that when you click HTTPS links in Wikipedia articles, you're unable to access them? You can always copy the URL from the link, change the "https" to "http", and access the website with http – for some websites that will work, but not all. But in my opinion, links in articles should continue to use https where possible, to provide better privacy and security for readers.
 * If you're asking about accessing Wikipedia itself using HTTP instead of HTTPS, as far as I know this is not possible. There is some related information here and here.
 * If this hasn't answered your question, please let me know – I'd be happy to explain further. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 11:56, 1 May 2023 (UTC)

Question from Nancius on Open house (school) (23:45, 17 May 2023)
Hello. It appears that this article is confusing Open House with Back-to-School Night (BTSN).

BTSN is held annually in the first few weeks of school. It is an event only open to the parents of currently enrolled children. It is an opportunity for parents to meet the teacher, learn about curriculum, standards, expectations, grading policies, and other information.

On the other hand, Open House is an annual event held sometime in the spring to showcase some of the academic learning and accomplishments of the currently enrolled students. This event is open to the students and their families. --Nancius (talk) 23:45, 17 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the message. Your definitions of back-to-school night and open house are the same definitions that were used at my schools when I was growing up. It wouldn't surprise me if the terminology varied by region, though. Ideally the article should give a nuanced explanation of how the terms are used. At the very least, I think it should mention the term "back-to-school night" and explain the distinction you've described (ideally cited to a reliable source). Want to try editing the article to add some of this nuance? —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 03:17, 18 May 2023 (UTC)

Question from InfoSleuth42 on Teahouse (17:20, 13 May 2023)
Hello,

I was paid to edit an article. As per Wikipedia's guidelines, I have mentioned it in my profile with my agency and client's name. Is there anything other than that that I need to do in order to comply with the COI guidelines of Wikipedia?

I appreciate your help. --InfoSleuth42 (talk) 17:20, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message. The most important thing is the disclosure, so it's good that you have done that. The other requirements and recommendations are explained at these two pages: Paid-contribution disclosure and Conflict of interest. Give those a read, and let me know if anything is confusing or unclear, or if you have any follow-up questions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 19:22, 13 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Awesome. I have already read those. Other things are only optional.
 * I appreciate your response. I will keep in touch with you.
 * I am just curious about how much time it takes to review the drafts? Does COI of the articles effect how much time they take for review? InfoSleuth42 (talk) 13:37, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Good questions. It generally takes quite a while for drafts to be reviewed – I would expect weeks or months. (Wikipedia has a limited pool of volunteers, and there are always more tasks to be done than people to do them.) I'm not sure whether the COI affects how long it takes – all the drafts go through the same reviewing process, but it's possible some reviewers might choose to focus on certain types of drafts, which would make those get through faster. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:55, 18 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Awesome. I appreciate your response.

Caroline Ellison
You undid my revision describing Caroline Ellison as a fraudster, saying that "we still can't say this in wikivoice until there's a conviction." However, as you can see from the sources I cited, she has already pleaded guilty to multiple fraud charges, months ago, and the judge has accepted her guilty plea, which means that she has been convicted. There is no such thing as a jury trial after a guilty plea; she (as well as Gary Wang and Nishad Singh, and unlike Sam Bankman-Fried) will go straight to sentencing. RaspberryCandy (talk) 00:29, 30 May 2023 (UTC)
 * You have a point that with a guilty plea there is not the same doubt about how things will play out as there is with Bankman-Fried. WP:BLPCRIME doesn't specifically address this situation, but especially with BLPs it is best to be cautious in rigorously sticking to the sources. The lead already clearly says that she pleaded guilty to multiple counts of fraud; I don't think we need to say more than that. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 02:21, 30 May 2023 (UTC)

Question from MainakC24365 (07:17, 12 June 2023)
Can I publish articles which have less than 5 sources of references? --MainakC24365 (talk) 07:17, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message. Yes, there's no problem with having only five sources. But keep in mind that articles need to be about notable topics, and the most common way to demonstrate notability is with significant coverage from multiple independent sources. If most of the five sources are independent reliable sources with in-depth coverage of the subject, it should be fine. But if they're mostly sources like the subject's own website or social media posts, the article might be deleted. You can find more information at Notability. I hope that helps – let me know if any of that is unclear or if you have any follow-up questions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:50, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

PRODs
Hello, Mx. Granger,

Just a reminder that when you tag a page for any time of deletion (CSD, PROD, AFD/RFD/MFD/etc.), it's courteous to post a notification on the talk page of the page creator. I'm sure you would like to know if an article you created is headed towards deletion. It's just considered good practice. The way most editors do this is by using Twinkle to tag pages for deletion. It's an editing tool that has a lot of great uses to make editing simpler, so you don't have to remember a lot of templates. Just be sure to set your Twinkle Preferences to "Notify page creator" and then when you tag a page for deletion, Twinkle will post a notice for you on the talk page of the page creator. Thank you for considering changing the way you tag pages for deletion. Liz Read! Talk! 02:57, 22 June 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reminder. I was aware of this but I might have forgotten for some recent PRODs – sorry about that. I haven't used Twinkle but maybe I'll give it a try. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 02:59, 22 June 2023 (UTC)

Past Talk topics
If a proposal on an article's Talk page has not been active for months, do Wikipedia rules allow me to go ask those editors whether they still have interest? CurryCity (talk) 18:44, 1 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Generally that should be fine. A common way to do this is to add a new comment in the same section (or start a new section) and ping all the editors who commented in the old discussion, for example using a template like Template:ping. The main guideline to be aware of is Canvassing, and the main behavior to avoid is selectively asking some editors but not others based on their views. (So for instance, it's generally fine if you ping all participants from the old discussion, but you shouldn't selectively ping the participants who supported the proposal while leaving out the participants who opposed the proposal.) —Mx.

Hello. What are the requirements to start creating my own articles. --Purpgod Tylee (talk) 16:29, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
 * The main requirement is that the subject of the article must be notable, generally meaning that it has significant coverage in multiple reliable sources that are independent of the subject. Outside of that requirement, though, I would recommend that you first spend some time improving existing articles to get familiar with how Wikipedia works before creating a new article.

 * Thanks for the message! Please do add relevant information to the article. It's best to cite a reliable source to support the information you add. If you want, you can start an article about the RCA 1802 on the Portuguese Wikipedia by translating the English article. Just make sure to give attribution when adding translated material, for example by mentioning that the page is a translation in your edit summary and by using a template like pt:Predefinição:Traduzido on the new article's talk page. As for the RCA 1806, there is some guidance about starting a new article here: Help:Your first article. Please let me know if any of this is unclear or if you have any more questions. —Mx.

Question from Max45789 (15:01, 22 August 2023)
Hello Mx. Granger,

I hope this message finds you well.

I have an issue with two talk pages which have split following a page move and I was wondering whether they can be unified. Unfortunately, the very moment I was writing on the talk page, the page was moved which may have caused a split between the article name and talk page name. As far as I was aware, this could only be remedied by blanking the new talk page, in order to ensure that the article and talk page carry the same name. However, this appears to have created two talk pages, one of which presently resides on a redirect page.

The article name is "Candar dynasty" and the previous talk page history is found under "Isfendiyarids". Is there a way to bring the Isfendiyarids talk page history under the Candar dynasty article?

Thank you for your assistance and support. --Max45789 (talk) 15:01, 22 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the message. In general, you can move a talk page by going to the talk page and clicking the "Move" link. But in this case the system may not let you do that, because there is content in the target page. If it doesn't let you, then you can post a request at Requested moves/Technical requests to get help from a page mover or administrator.
 * By the way, looking at the history of the article, it looks like you're engaging in a move war, which is considered disruptive behavior. It looks like your moves have been reverted four times by two other users. When a page move is reverted, the right response is not to reinstate it, but to start a discussion following the instructions at Requested moves. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 03:42, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello @Mx. Granger, thank you for your quick reply.
 * Yes, regrettably the reason there was content on the talk page was because I was typing the reasons for a page move the very moment it was moved. I have of course to date not received any response or reasons against the move, despite my repeated attempts to engage in an honest discussion by:
 * Stating clear and concise reasons for the move on the talk page (more accurately on both talk pages since they have been split) and;
 * In the spirit of cooperation that Wikipedia was founded upon, contacting the user that moved the page directly in a genuine bid to resolve the issue through discussion and reaching a consensus whichever way, highlighting that my version is not necessarily the best and that we could reach a more suitable outcome together.
 * Despite this, I have unfortunately not received any response to either of the above and have started to question the motives behind the reverts, which separate from the title, also included the removal of verified material and citations that had taken time to compile.
 * Thanking you for your guidance and support once again, Max45789 (talk) 11:23, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * It's good that you've started the discussion – thanks for that. For future reference, if a disagreement like this happens again, it's best to stop the page moves and wait for the discussion to conclude, rather than continuing to move-war a few times first. For now, since you've started a discussion and the page is at your preferred title, you can probably leave it alone unless another user weighs in. If someone reverts to the page's stable title again, that would be a good opportunity to start a formal requested move discussion. Do feel free to get help moving the talk page at Requested moves/Technical requests, and let me know if you have any other questions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 13:39, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi @Mx. Granger and thank you for your continued support.
 * To be honest, I'm not quite sure how to explain how this occurred, with the talk page splitting as I was typing, it doesn't doesn't strike me as the standard article page move that the form above appears created for. I'm actually surprised you understood what happened so easily - do you by any chance know an administrator that you can copy into this conversation?
 * Grateful for your assistance again, — Max45789 (talk) 16:33, 23 August 2023 (UTC)
 * No problem. I've added a request at Requested moves/Technical requests. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 04:35, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you for all your help @Mx. Granger Max45789 (talk) 10:17, 24 August 2023 (UTC)
 * It appears to have been fixed! Thank you! Max45789 (talk) 10:19, 24 August 2023 (UTC)

 * I think you can just convert the draft page to a redirect. In other words, replace the text of Draft:DGSAT I with . If other users had also contributed to the draft article and material they added had ended up in the mainspace, then the issue might be more complicated to ensure correct attribution, but in this case you were the only author so I don't think there's any issue there. —Mx.

Question from Monurin (07:46, 12 December 2023)
Hello hello! So I wanted to ask - why are the suggested edits of the browser and mobile versions of Wikipedia so vastly different? In the browser version, you can do copyediting, finding citations, and expanding on articles. In the mobile version however, you can add short article descriptions, images, image captions, and image tags. Why don't the people at Wikimedia just *combine* all of these together? Anyways, cheers! --Monurin (talk) 07:46, 12 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi Monurin, thanks for the question. I don't know the answer. I found some information about the mobile version here, but I'm not sure exactly where the suggested edits on the desktop version come from. In general, it's pretty common for things on Wikipedia to be somewhat disjointed and not fully harmonized – that's a natural result of the project's decentralized structure. —Mx.

 * Reviewing/patrolling a page doesn't take much time but it requires a good understanding of Wikipedia policies and guidelines ; Wikipedia needs experienced users to perform this task and there are precious few with the appropriate skills. Even a couple reviews a day can make a huge difference.
 * Kindly read the tutorial before making your decision (if it looks daunting, don't worry, it basically boils down to checking CSD, notability, and title). If this looks like something that you can do, please consider joining us.

 * yes sir, I find it's very difficult to gather more information to add to the article. (Slbs.shiv) 17:29, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
 * That makes sense. When I want to expand an article, I usually look for sources about the topic and try to summarize what they say. Here are some of my go-to places to search for sources –
 * Google Scholar
 * Google News for current events topics
 * Google Books
 * Just a plain Google search (or a different search engine if relevant, e.g. Baidu for China-related topics)
 * Open Library
 * The Wikipedia Library (for some topics there's a wealth of information here, though you'll need a bit more experience on the wiki before you get access)
 * Newspapers.com for historical topics (requires a paid subscription, I think, but also available through The Wikipedia Library)
 * A local library (and interlibrary loans). Sometimes it surprises me how much information is still available in physical books at libraries but hard to find online.
 * Of course, you should always consider whether a source is reliable on the topic before you use it to add information to an article. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any follow-up questions. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 02:32, 20 December 2023 (UTC)

 * You can cite that using or, but it would be better to find a source with a reputation for fact-checking rather than just the words of a single commentator. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 16:40, 31 December 2023 (UTC)
