Formatting Problems
My about me page has a big problem with the formatting where the words and headings just go off to the side. If somebody knows the problem or knows how to fix it could you please help me? Cherrell410 (talk) 02:21, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * @Cherrell410: This has to do with where the userboxes are placed and how they interact with elements after them. I boldly went ahead and added clear, which should solve your problem — Tenryuu 🐲 ( 💬 • 📝 ) 03:40, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

 * We at the English Wikipedia don't have much control over foreign language Wikipedias. The best place to ask this would be at the Hindi Wikipedia. I.hate.spam.mail.here (talk | contributions) 04:55, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

In my preferences, one of the user groups it says I'm in is "Named users". Does anyone know what that is? Toad40 (talk) 13:48, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Review of article
I want to get my article reviewed. It's a stub-class article and I have added a lot of new information. So I want that someone please review my article and grow it's level or tell me it's mistakes. My article name is Mothparja. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FAAHS (talk • contribs) 13:49, 5 May 2022 (UTC)


 * Mothparja is the article in question. @FAAHS I've read through it and fixed a lot of spelling and grammatical issues.  The biggest problem with the article right now is sourcing. You have a lot of content in the article which is totally unsourced, and some other content for which you are using sources that are not reliable.  I've added citation needed and unreliable source tags to some of them. ~  ONUnicorn (Talk&#124;Contribs) problem solving 14:20, 5 May 2022 (UTC)

Reg - Movie page creation
Hi Team,

I have to add/include upcomming movie as a (movie page) in Wikipedia, kindly assist me the steps so that it will be helpfull. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Devan Mohan (talk • contribs) 18:37, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * Why do you "have" to do this? If you are responsible for marketing the film, please read conflict of interest and paid editing. Writing a new article(not a "page") is the hardest thing to do on Wikipedia, and it's even harder when one is associated with the topic. We usually recommend that you first gain experience and knowledge by editing existing articles, and using the new user tutorial. Unreleased films typically do not merit articles, please see the notability guidelines for films. If there is significant coverage of the film in independent reliable sources (beyond casting or other announcements) please go to WP:AFC to create and submit a draft. 331dot (talk) 18:50, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * If you are a marketing or PR person, see WP:PRPEOPLE - R. S. Shaw (talk) 19:53, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * If the movie is "upcoming", you should wait until it's been released, and (we hope) reviewed in reliable published sources. As far as Wikipedia is concerned, there is certainly no "have to" about creating an article about something that doesn't exist yet. Maproom (talk) 20:35, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
 * That's not quite true. High-profile movies in production can (and do) get articles before they are released. Whether that's the case here is another story. Clarityfiend (talk) 22:17, 5 May 2022 (UTC)
