S. Scott Bullock
For some reason, someone keeps removing the birthday from the article S. Scott Bullock. Whenever I go to look it up, his birthday is not listed. Then I put it back up there, and then, a random amount of days later, it's gone. I'm beginning to feel like Template:Pp-semi-vandalism should be put on the article, because it's making me suspect that a vandal (or more than one of them) may be behind this. I found out in the history that one of the vandals is 76.172.223.174, who should've been warned since last month for removing text without an explanation! Any kind of admin help would be appreciated. Thank you. Kitty53 (talk) 00:15, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Hmm. From the history, I doubt it's vandalism per se. It's been removed twice by similar IP addresses, perhaps the same person each time - although I'd be interested to know whether the other information added in the same session by the first IP is accurate.  However (a) is there a reliable source for the birthday? IMDB isn't generally regarded as reliable. (b) Are we in BLP territory here? Is the birthdate, as opposed to the birthyear, necessary? (c) the template by itself does nothing.  What counts is whether an administrator has actually protected the page.  On the current history, I wouldn't semi-protect it (which stops IP edits, not established editors).   BencherliteTalk 00:27, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I don't know. When the editors removed the B-Day, did they provide an explanation? Nooooooooooooooooo! Removing text and not providing an explanation is considered vandalism, which they should have been warned about.Kitty53 (talk) 00:52, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * That's a very strong statement there, Kitty53, and one that is not supported by WP:AGF.... or WP:VAND for that matter. -- ShinmaWa(talk) 00:57, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Let's go back to the WP:RS issue regarding the birthdate; Kitty can you provide a reliable source for this date? Tiggerjay (talk) 03:17, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Let's back up even further.  I would definitely say that Mr. Bullock is not particularly famous.  As such, we should be very careful about publishing his birthdate for privacy concerns.  In fact, birthdates are specifically called out in WP:BLP.  The IP editor both times only edited this article and only to do the same action (remove the birthdate).  I can not ignore the fact that this pattern suggests we are gearing up for a WP:DOLT scenario where those IPs are, in fact, S. Scott Bullock himself removing his own birthdate.  I, of course, can't prove that.  I only have an editting pattern which supports this conclusion.  So, it comes to a balance of needs here -- Is providing this information weighed more than the privacy concerns laid out in WP:BLP?   Without evidence that this information is already widespread (outside of IMDb), I have to lean in favor of privacy for this living person.  As such, I'm removing the birthdate myself until multiple reliable sources showing this information is already widespread, per WP:BLP.  -- ShinmaWa(talk) 03:42, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

 * I just fixed it .  It looks like the Thai-language refrence inside the quote template caused MediaWiki to think that the page was on the Thai Wikipedia.   That's just bizarre.

Edit not appearing
Hi folks - I only occasionally edit, so please forgive me if I've missed something obvious, but I just tweaked the Chopsticks article to remove a commercial link, and while my edit shows up in the revision history, the main page doesn't show it.

Please Help Me.
Somebody has chosen to omit data from the definition of "Bear Magazine" repeatedly.

My magazine, 100% BEEF, is the publishing heir to Bear Magazine, which unceremoniously disappeared in 2002. The former staff, plus contributing writers, photographers and artists who created Bear Magazine now contribute regularly to my magazine, 100% BEEF, now entering our 7th year of publishing. When Bear Magazine disappeared, 100% BEEF continued the publishing legacy, and became "the" community magazine for Bears and like-minded men. Now, a new publisher who, through legal wrangling, has acquired a copyright for the "Bear Magazine" name, has chosen to edit and omit references to my publication in the "Bear Magazine" definition; references which have been part of that Wikipedia Definition for a long time, now. This individual keeps editing the content to that end, even though 100% BEEF Magazine's information has been part of the Bear Magazine Wikipedia definition for years now. And, when I re-edit the page for accuracy, they report me for "Vandalism". I have not vandalized any Wikipedia Pages and I have not deleted any of their information; they have. Please help me. Thank You. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rustyspot (talk • contribs) 07:31, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Hi Rustyspot, and welcome to Wikipedia! I've looked at your edit here which was called vandalism, and it looks like you're trying to add categories to the page. The correct syntax to use is:
 * with each category in a new set of square brackets. You had the syntax slightly wrong, but you're correct that that wasn't vandalism (a mistake made in good faith is never vandalism). I've let the user who warned you know on his talk page that I think he was being overzealous.

 * As for the content of the article itself, you might want to take a look at the policy Verifiability, which explains what Wikipedia articles need to do to establish the veracity of their content: if an article contains reliable, third-party sources it'll be much less likely to have its content removed. At present neither version of the article contains sources so it's impossible for another editor to tell which if either is correct.


 * Finally, you should also read our policy on conflicts of interest. We discourage people from editing articles about themselves, their companies, or other things closely related to them in the interest of openness and neutrality. Perhaps you would be best off finding a third editor and suggesting the changes to them, or doing so on the article's talk page, rather than doing it yourself. Third opinion is one place you might be able to get a neutral editor to take part.


 * I hope all of that helps. If you have any more questions you can contact me on my talk page, or ask again here. Happy editing! Olaf Davis | Talk 10:24, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I apologize for being a bit harsh. When I was patrolling recent changes, I instinctively labeled references to sex as vandalism without reading the content of the article. Cheers, King of &hearts;   &diams;   &clubs;  &spades; 00:09, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

writing new article
I am trying very hard toget to grips with writing a new article, which is valid and no other article exists with the title. I have opened my user page and have also opened what I think is a sub page which has the working title /marchmont in brown just below the heading of my user page. I have tried to type the article into here where I understand it cannot be editted by anyone else until I press save at which point it is launched into shared Wikipedia space. Can I not just copy/paste the document into this sub page space and then start formatting adding photos, references, links etc? I tried this and then it disappeared, why was this and why is it so hard to find an area in my user page where I can work on an article for a few days on my own? I am determined to crack this but find the whole writing a new artice un-user friendly. I would be grateful for some basic help. Thanks. Mark J Richards (talk) 10:58, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I have created a Sandbox page for you (User:Mark J Richards/Sandbox) that you can use to develop an article. I'm glad you're interested in writing articles, this guide has a lot of useful tips. You can caopy and paste the article you're writing into the sandbox, at which point you can click save, and it will be there to edit and update. Or you can just start the article from scratch in your sandbox. Just remember to hit save to save your progress. Feel free to ask questions too. Cheers!  TN ‑ X - Man  11:42, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * You can keep track of your subpages by placing a section on your user page like the section I have:
 * User:Teratornis
 * That is, on your user page: User:Mark J Richards, you can have this wikitext somewhere:

==Subpages ==

These are my user subpages.


 * [&from= See all my user subpages] and [&from= all their talk pages]

Sandboxes
These are pages for my test edits.


 * /Sandbox
 * To make this simple, I'm adding this to your user subpage for you. If you don't like it, you can remove it. The sense of "unfriendly" you get from Wikipedia is actually from the complexity of the process by which registered users (and many more unregistereds) built an encyclopedia of  articles. With that many participants and topics, getting them all to work together productively cannot be simple. Wikipedia requires highly complex policies, guidelines, and procedures to organize everyone to work well together - if we just let everyone do whatever, the result would be utter chaos. Wikipedia is unlike anything most people have experienced - after all, most people don't have any experience with organizing  strangers from all over the world to work together with virtually no face-to-face contact or spoken communication. Learning to edit on Wikipedia means learning an incredible number of details, many of them new. This tends to overwhelm the short term memory of the new user, creating the sense of anxiety and distress you feel just now. However, Wikipedia is amazingly friendly in the sense of having all its instructions in writing. In most large organizations, much of what a member needs to know exists only in a kind of oral tradition, which people have to pick up inefficiently through socializing face to face, getting experienced people to explain it all to them, and by a clumsy process of trial and error learning. On Wikipedia, we can't use the lazy method of speaking; our only tool is writing. Written instructions are actually friendlier than unwritten instructions, because writing is more definite. A person can write something once, and then we use computers to repeat it to anyone who needs it. All those people who wrote all those instructions spent thousands of hours being friendly - in a kind of abstract, disconnected way - to all those other people who will read those instructions in the future. To see the scale of this friendliness, peruse the Editor's index to Wikipedia.
 * I might mention that you seem to have chosen the hardest way to learn Wikipedia - going straight to creating a new article without first learning the ropes by editing existing articles. This is like jumping into combat without first going through boot camp. The urge to create an entirely new article from scratch is a common motivation for people to learn how to edit on Wikipedia, but unfortunately a complete article involves an incredible amount of know-how. It's easier to work with the collaborative editing model of Wikipedia by making small edits to existing articles, thereby learning one thing at a time. But if you want to do it the hard way (and why not, that's pretty much what I did too), see WP:LAYOUT, WP:LEAD, WP:ARTICLE, WP:CITE, WP:FOOT, and WP:CITET for just a little warmup. And keep Help:Editing and WP:CHEAT handy. Oh yeah, and be prepared for other users to mercilessly edit all your contributions, or even delete them outright if you unknowingly violate some rule you haven't read about yet. --Teratornis (talk) 17:51, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

columned tables
I am considering creating a columed list, much how a multiplication table looks/short of spreadshetish, but with all words contained within inline and outlined boxes. however I have no idea how to go about starting this, is there a tutorial you could direct me too or a ready made template that i could use, and just & fill in the gaps?  i want several boxes each with thier own main heading, consiting of columns with headings, and various numbers of rows to correspond with each column .

Changing a page's title
Hi.

I've just created my first Wikipedia page ("Professor sa'ad medhat") and have manged to lower case the name in the title.

How can I edit the title to capitalise the first letters of the name?

Thanks, Weottelescope (talk) 17:04, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Dan
 * If you look at the top of the article, one of the tabs should say "move". This tab allows you to move the entire article to a new title, assuming it's not already in use. You should be able to move the article to "Professor Sa'ad Medhat". Give it a shot and let me know if it works. Cheers!  TN ‑ X - Man  17:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I went ahead and moved the page to Professor Sa'ad Medhat. I believe that IPs and very new users cannot move articles. Be weary that articles require notability, and thus might be deleted.

Using "Commons" Files to Edit Wikipedia Article
Hello,

I uploaded a picture to Wikipedia Commons called. How do I removed the outdated picture on Ira "Bill" McCollum's wikipedia page, and add this new one?Flegal (talk) 17:34, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * There's no such image on the commons. But to link to a commons image, just use the same syntax as a standard en.wp image - commons images are common to all wikimedia projects. -mattbuck (Talk) 17:50, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Please read Help:Images and other uploaded files - the name is Wikimedia Commons rather than "Wikipedia Commons". Wikipedia and the other Wikimedia Foundation projects have so many similar-sounding terms that we have to be careful to use terms correctly - being off by even one letter can lead to misunderstandings sometimes. I know it sounds like hairsplitting, but hairsplitting is how we keep registered users working together more or less coherently. You can make your questions easier to answer if you link to any article you mention. Otherwise, help desk volunteers have to . (I hope it would be obvious, but for some reason it often doesn't seem to be obvious, that for someone to help a questioner with a problem, that someone would need to look at whatever Web page the questioner was looking at when the problem came up.) Are you talking about the article: Bill McCollum? If so, the link to the image at the top of the article is inside the code for the Infobox Politician template. That's up in the lead section of the article, so to edit it, you would click the "edit this page" tab at the top. The code in question looks like this (and if you are new here, this is probably somewhat scary):

{{Infobox Politician ...
 * name         = Bill McCollum
 * image        = Bill McCollum 106th Congress.jpg
 * width        = 200px
 * height       =
 * caption      =
 * You would change at least the  parameter value. For more about these kinds of templates, see Help:Template and Help:Infobox - you shouldn't have to learn all that stuff now just to edit the   parameter value, but the farther you get with Wikipedia editing, the more instructions you will need to read. --Teratornis (talk) 20:05, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Creating Discussions / Requesting Page Edits
Hey guys,

I feel really lame. I've been a software developer for 10 years, in nearly every language you can think of, and I have no idea how to figure out how to add a discussion, comment, or question under a page. On a couple of pages I started, like in particular, the Enterolobium Cyclocarpum page (Elephant Ear Tree / Guancasta), I have been editing it for a while, but I would like to request an edit from someone with more experience. In particular, I wanted to request a "endangered species" chart be added to it (if it's needed). I click on Discussions, and since there is not one currently there, I don't know how to add or edit, or create a new one?

How can I create a new discussion under an individual page, or request that someone make an update?

Thanks, and sorry if this has already been covered, I wasn't sure how to search for that either.

If it's bluelinked, click it, and then the tab "new section". Add your title in the smaller box, and your question/comment/request in the bigger box. Then click "save page".

Help with Portuguese
Hello, all. I recently merged all of my wiki accounts using the new opt-in single-user login system. Everything went smoothly, except that there seems to be an account with the same user name on the Portuguese Wikipedia that was not created by me and could not be merged (it has a different password). (This is the account.)

This account appears to have no edits at all on the Portuguese Wikipedia, so it should be a simple matter to usurp it. The problem is I don't speak a lick of Portuguese. Does anyone know where the usurpation requests page is on the Portuguese Wikipedia? Can someone give me a boilerplate Portuguese usurpation request that I can copy and paste there? Thanks for any help! — Dulcem (talk) 23:32, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
