Wikipedia:Mohalla Altaf shaheed
Can anyone look at the page Mohalla Altaf shaheed. Regards. — Meghmollar2017 (UTC) — 10:49, 31 August 2022 (UTC)


 * I have moved your draft back to Draft:Mohalla Altaf shaheed. The Wikipedia namespace was the wrong one anyway (that is for pages about the creation of Wikipedia), but it is not ready to be an article, as it has not a single source. Please read your first article. ColinFine (talk) 11:32, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Can I nominate
There's an article which meets FL criteria imo. Those who improved it are not very active. Can I nominate the article for FL and give the entire credit to them? Dr Salvus 12:43, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I think you mean FA for featured article, unless you're referring to a featured list. See Featured article candidates. TimTempleton (talk) (cont)  18:04, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

How to create company page in wikipedia
I want to create a company page for House of Party as House of Party is famous brand in USA for party supplies. Can anybody guide me about creating a company page? Abubakarpetra (talk) 12:49, 31 August 2022 (UTC)


 * There are no 'company pages' on Wikipedia. AndyTheGrump (talk) 12:56, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * You may create an article about any notable subject, so your first task is to verify that this company is notable: see WP:NCORP. If the subject is not notable, we will delete the article. This happens more than 100 times a day. Don't waste your time or ours if the company is non-notable. After you are sure the company is notable, proceed to WP:YFA. -Arch dude (talk) 13:09, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * If you have an association with the company, please read WP:COI and WP:PAID for information on required formal disclosures. 331dot (talk) 13:11, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Company is currently selling its products at Amazon and Also have their official website. Abubakarpetra (talk) 13:26, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Neither of which establishes the notability if the company. Please read the policy pages linked to in this section. Wikipedia is not a directory of companies that merely documents existence, there is criteria for inclusion. 331dot (talk) 13:34, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

Suggesting reordering some medical articles...
You know how there are many stories about people googling a symptom and getting all the scary results first? I just saw an example of that, in the article Cramps, and think it would be ethical to rearrange the introduction so the common causes (fatigue, electrolyte imbalance) are well before the scary stuff (neurological disorders).

Physicians have a saying, "when you hear hoofbeats, assume horses, not zebras." Anyone else think we should be making an effort to put the zebras at the bottom of the list?

// I just realized that this sounds like I'm saying "somebody else should do this" but I meant "is it cool with you guys for me to rewrite this"

 * It wouldn't hurt to suggest changes on individual talk pages, and then if there's no response, make the edit. WP:BEBOLD. If anyone disagrees, you'll eventually find out. TimTempleton (talk) (cont)  18:06, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Thanks @Timtempleton. Sorry I didn't think to ask on the talk page, new to this.
 * // &#91;NomadicVoxel&#93; &#91; talk \ ctbs &#93; 18:53, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Makes sense. Appreciate that.
 * Sorry, just relatively new to this stuff. // &#91;NomadicVoxel&#93; &#91; talk \ ctbs &#93;  18:52, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * , you might want to post this sort of query to the medical working group at Wikipedia talk:MED. They may even have a relevant policy. HLHJ (talk) 21:32, 3 September 2022 (UTC)

Edit Page Photo
Hello! To represent AstraZeneca properly, we would like change the current and incorrect photo on our page to The Discovery Centre (DISC) in Cambridge, UK which is our new main building. The current photo is incorrect and misleading. Below are press release: [Https://www.astrazeneca.com/media-centre/press-releases/2021/astrazeneca-unveils-the-discovery-centre-disc-in-cambridge.html https://www.astrazeneca.com/media-centre/press-releases/2021/astrazeneca-unveils-the-discovery-centre-disc-in-cambridge.html] [Https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/astrazeneca-breaks-bank-again-for-new-futuristic-hq-pkhpjnf7b https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/astrazeneca-breaks-bank-again-for-new-futuristic-hq-pkhpjnf7b] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AstraZeneca Grace8888 (talk) 20:01, 31 August 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, Grace8888. Once you have made the mandatory declaration of your status as a paid editor (see that link for details), you are welcome to
 * Upload a suitable free image to Wikimedia Commons using the Upload wizard, and
 * Make an edit request on the talk page of the article to use the new image.

 * Hello, Grace8888. You have not yet made the mandatory declaration of your statues as a paid editor. You are therefore currently in breach of Wikipedia's terms of service.
 * Also, I see that you uploaded File:AstraZeneca Discovery Centre in Cambridge UK DISC.jpg as "own work", but it was published in (which you linked to), which makes it clear that it is copyright AstraZeneca. As I explained above, Commons only accepts work that is freely licensed, so I have nominated the image for deletion.
 * If you wish to donate the image (and you have the legal right to do so), you may mail OTRS as explained at donating copyright materials. Be aware that if you do so, you will be granting anybody, anywhere, licence to reuse the image freely. ColinFine (talk) 23:31, 2 September 2022 (UTC)

 * It was vandalism, a few hours ago: I have reverted it. Thank you for pointing it out. ColinFine (talk) 21:40, 31 August 2022 (UTC)

LiveRamp/Acxiom Company Correction
Hello Help Desk – I am an employee of Acxiom and understand that I’m not supposed to do any company editing myself. I'm hoping someone here can help me. Acxiom used to be LiveRamp, but the companies split. The confusing history is correctly explained in each article, but when the names of the articles were switched, the corresponding Wikidata files weren’t properly updated. The LiveRamp Wikidata file still refers to the company as Acxiom. The Wikidata file for Acxiom is newer and correctly just calls it Acxiom. When someone does a Google search for Acxiom, Google seems to be pulling some of the incorrect LiveRamp Wikidata into the search results. You can see Acxiom all over the LiveRamp Wikidata file, such as in the other foreign language Wikipedia sites, and in the main box where it says “also known as Acxiom”. Does anyone here know how to correctly update the LiveRamp Wikidata file to break this association, so Google will display the correct search results? Anthonyacxiom (talk) 21:49, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Not saying it shouldn't be updated, but we have no control over Google search results, for that you will need to contact Google. You will also need to make a formal paid editing disclosure, please see WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 22:02, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * @331dot @Anthonyacxiom You are both right, the LiveRamp Wikidata file should not refer to the company as Acxiom, should it?
 * The OP wants to know how to update Wikidata items. I am not familiar with that process.  331dot, who can help? 71.228.112.175 (talk) 07:45, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I don't know anything about it, I assume someone else around here does. 331dot (talk) 07:47, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I have a little insight into this. I updated both the articles a few years ago, when these two companies basically switched names. I also moved the Acxiom dab page to Acxiom (disambiguation). I didn't think to do anything with the Wikidata file. It looks like there are two things going on now. When someone Googles either Acxiom or LiveRamp, Google just brings up LiveRamp results in the Knowledge Graph.  As 331dot points out above, we have no control over this.  There's a feedback link at the bottom of the Knowledge Graph, and I already took the initiative to report the incorrect display result for Acxiom to Google.  You should notify them as well.  I'm sure they get many correction requests. I see what you're saying with the incorrect LiveRamp Wikidata file.  That IS a Wikipedia issue. I just went over and changed the title from Acxiom to LiveRamp, but there are other foreign Wikipedia pages that say Acxiom.  I'm not a Wikidata expert so I have no idea what impact that has on articles.  Perhaps someone better versed in Wikidata and also possibly fluent in German or Spanish might take a look and see what kind of housekeeping needs to be done. And please make sure anyone from the company editing either article makes the proper disclosures per WP:PAID. Better yet, rather than editing yourself, we suggest you make a connected edit request. See Simple conflict of interest edit request. You can also ping me or post on my talk page. TimTempleton (talk)  (cont)  22:50, 31 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi, Tim. I'm pretty sure that the label on the Wikidata item has no effect on any Wikipedia article linked to it, unless the article specifically goes and gets the label (for example in an infobox) - and I doubt whether anything does so use it, though I don't know for sure. So I don't think that changing the English label will have any effect in Wikimedia projects outside Wikidata. Whether Google uses the label, I have no idea. ColinFine (talk) 22:50, 1 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I think you're right. I think the solution is just to keep pinging Google's feedback button and telling them to not show the LiveRamp Knowledge Graph for Acxiom searches. To be certain, I posted a question at the Wikidata help desk linking to this question, and the other Wikidata question below.
