Editing "subtitles?"
The descriptions displayed in mobile search are taken from Wikidata. Click "Desktop" at the bottom of a mobile page to get the desktop version, and then click "Wikidata item" under "Tools" in the left pane, for example leading to. I don't know a way to get directly from mobile to the Wikidata item. PrimeHunter (talk) 20:18, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
 * On Tungsten, first click "Desktop" at the bottom of the whole page if you have such a link. If you have a link saying "Mobile view" then you are already on the Desktop version. If you have neither link then you may be using some app with another user interface I don't know. When you are on the desktop version of the Tungsten article, the left side of the page has menus. One of them has heading "Tools" and one of the links below that says "Wikidata item". Or just click the direct link I gave above: . PrimeHunter (talk) 20:44, 28 November 2016 (UTC)

Thank you I see what you mean now, someone else appears to have edited it

 * Yes it was changed in [//www.wikidata.org/w/index.php?title=Q743&diff=412153946&oldid=411906900], probably by a user who saw your Teahouse post. A purge of this page would have turned your user page link blue without needing to edit the page. See Guidance for younger editors. PrimeHunter (talk) 17:18, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

Ruggero Santilli‎‎
A scientific theory is when there's evidence. - A scientific theory - normally yes, but we are talking about a crackpot. And in such context the word "theory" is pretty common, especially if a crackpot alleges evidence; e.g. in case of a conspiracy theory. Staszek Lem (talk) 20:10, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
 * While usually I'd be fine with that. His "theories" are in the realm of physics and should use physics terminology. WikipediaUserCalledChris (talk) 20:27, 1 March 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for April 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited William Carpenter (flat Earth theorist), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page William Carpenter. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
