Sharing a reference
Hi, I want to share(use) one reference in different parts of an article. How am I supposed to do it? Help me, please! *** in fact ***  (contact)  07:19, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * By naming the reference. At the first use: . The second time you can just use Jarkeld (talk) 07:28, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * If I understand you correctly, you want to use the same reference again for a many different statements in the same article. You would do this by naming the ref. Your first use of the reference will look like this . And then whenever you want to use that same reference again, you would simply use without all the other reference info. Clear? Dismas |(talk) 07:28, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks! But,could you please do just one example for me in this article? I will do the rest myself. Thank you in advance! *** in fact ***   (contact)  07:33, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Dual accounts
Hi, is it possible to have two accounts to keep your edits to two very different topics separate, provided you have a link to say that the two accounts are owned by the same person? Help would be great!Peaceworld111 (talk) 12:28, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Change Name of Article without Confirmed status
The name of the article Halifax, nova scotia ( http://pt.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Halifax,_nova_scotia&redirect=no ) should be changed to capitalize Nova Scotia [Halifax, Nova Scotia]. I'm unable to do this myself, as I don't have confirmed status (or an account, etc.) but if someone could (as it's now the facebook location page) this grammar nerd would appreciate it!! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.177.61.206 (talk) 14:07, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * This help desk is for the English-language Wikipedia. For questions about the Portuguese Wikipedia please ask there. -- John of Reading (talk) 14:25, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The page itself is actually on simply Halifax, the page with the uncapitalized province is a redirect page.Naraht (talk) 14:30, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * There is an article called Halifax, Nova Scotia on the English Wikipedia, with Nova Scotia capitalized.--Bbb23 (talk) 15:05, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * pt:Halifax, Nova Scotia is a redirect to pt:Halifax. I guess the question is whether pt:Halifax, nova scotia should also be a redirect to pt:Halifax, but that's a question for Portugese Wikipedia. – ukexpat (talk) 16:40, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Rix Centre help with Wikipedia project groups
Hi, came across the Rix Centre article, it needs a clean-up, NPOV-ing, more references, and wiki-links in and out of the article. I was wondering if anybody could direct me towards wiki-projects relating to charities, research groups, disability (or just tell me what page to go to and I can find them myself) I've been on here for a while editing articles and such, but I'm dire at navigating through the community parts of wikipedia Cheers Darigan (talk) 15:03, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Try WikiProject Disability and WikiProject Organizations. I don't see any WikiProjects more specific to the article, but you can look for yourself in the directory from WikiProject.  --Mysdaao talk 15:58, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Much appreciated Mysdaao - following up the links now, cheers Darigan (talk) 16:15, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Janet Graham
I need to get the Janet Graham redirect page removed. I wrote a stub on Janet Graham (composer) and then, looking at the links, found that there were other Janet Grahams in the system so moved the page. However, the redirect page was automatically formed so the move was ineffective at cutting the links. How do I get rid of it? Thanks. Pkeets (talk) 15:42, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * What other Janet Grahams are there? I don't see any.  IMO, it looks like the article for the composer is the only one and should be at, simply, Janet Graham.  Dismas |(talk) 15:45, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * I saw none either; the "what links here" tool suggests there are no links to it from other articles about different Janets, so I have undone the page move. I was doing it as Dismas left the above message, I suspect. BencherliteTalk 15:47, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, there is Janet Grahame Johnstone but that could just be solved with a "for the..." hatnote. Dismas |(talk) 15:51, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

Edit Associated Acts under a band wiki
A member of a band I like has a member that released a single recently and I was going to add the band to the Associated Acts.

How do I edit associated acts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Risethefall (talk • contribs) 18:40, 14 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Near the top of the article you should see the usage of the template Infobox musical artist, which will begin with:

{{Infobox musical artist
 * and be followed by a number of different fields. Look for the field named "Associated_acts", and edit what's the to right of the equals sign.  If you don't see "Associated_acts" add it as a new field.  --Mysdaao {{sup|talk}} 19:28, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I have added this to the Carvelli talk page. Kittybrewster  &#9742;  21:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
 * 'Youtube' is not a reliable source. We need to stick to verifiable facts - and anything lacking such a reference (to e.g. a newspaper, book) could be removed, by anyone.
 * We also need to be neutral. For example, saying He has been a big player in the Italian Movement. He's currently very active - is opinion, and not fact.
 * I could edit it, and say he is not very active. How can we check which is correct? Please read Referencing for beginners to see how we ensure the facts check out.  Chzz  ► 00:59, 15 December 2010 (UTC)
