my page in Wikipedia
For years I wondered who is responsible for creating the short article on Richard I Cohen in Wikipedia. I wondered if I can send you relevant material and corrections. Richard I. Cohen 2A10:8012:D:8528:DE70:3E38:5027:ECAD (talk) 08:04, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

 * Hello. The article Richard I. Cohen was originally written way back in 2006 by, who amazingly is still an active volunteer 17 years later. Over the years, 33 different editors have contributed, and has written the largest percentage of the text. Sadly, that esteemed editor died in 2021. She is missed. As for changes to the article, please leave a formal Edit request at Talk: Richard I. Cohen. Registering an account is optional, but it would facilitate communication.

HA ha I found an error
Thus on Category:Champagne_producers:
 * Champagne Delamotte :
 * Dom Pérignon :
 * C: Dom Pérignon
 * D: Champagne Delamotte

 * Thanks for pointing it out. I've changed the default sort in Dom Pérignon.  Looking at Category:Champagne producers it looks as if a number of articles could perhaps have a more appropriate sort key, at least for that category if not for others. - David Biddulph (talk) 09:48, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Someone found an error in Wikipedia! Call Walter Cronkite! Oh, wait, he's dead.  Huntley and Brinkley?  No, that won't work, either.  (OK, yeah, I'm old!)  But seriously, this sort of glitch is what got me started in Wikipedia.  First--Particularly with lists of species and lists of people of noble houses--different editors can have different ideas on what is a suitable Defaultsort or Sortkey, or might categorize something without noticing how the Category has been sorted (or the Category might be thoroughly inconsistent, and only I am willing to take on editing several thousand [yes, in some cases] individual articles to put it right); second, a Defaultsort that tidies one Category beautifully will leave everything to which it's applied hopelessly lost in another.  I'd say a good 95% of my "career" as a Wikipedian (both signed up and IP) has been putting these things to rights. Uporządnicki (talk) 10:23, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Is this reference reliable?
I am thinking of posting on Wikipedia about an education website. Can you tell me whether it is notable or not? I have read about it from some google books. I append the URL to Google Books. 1. https://books.google.co.in/books?id=rDimEAAAQBAJ&newbks=0&printsec=frontcover&pg=PP16&dq=evidyalam&hl=en&source=newbks_fb&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q=evidyalam&f=false

2. https://www.google.co.in/books/edition/The_Learning_Zone_8/jUaeEAAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&dq=evidyalam&pg=PA45&printsec=frontcover TechnicalThakur (talk) 10:13, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * I assume that the site you refer to is eVidyalam. In my view, neither of those sources provides evidence of notability. Maproom (talk) 11:14, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Those are listings. Notability requires significant coverage of the subject. Where have people who have no connection with the site chosen to publish about it at length and without being prompted or fed information from the website? Remember that what you are contemplating doing is not "posting about" but "writing an encyclopaedia article about". ColinFine (talk) 11:56, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

How an Indian educator qualify for Wikipedia?

Is Google Knowledge Panel helpful? Could you help me to understand it? TechnicalThakur (talk) 11:06, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * @technicalthakur: for any person to have an article, they must meet the standards in notability (people). lettherebedarklight晚安 11:07, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Check Wikipedia's Notability guideline for more information. StarryNightSky11 ☎ 03:16, 11 January 2023 (UTC)

Content publishing
Hello guys,

Please help me how i can publish content and that content cant get delete 203.192.250.210 (talk) 11:14, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * read up on help:your first article. lettherebedarklight晚安 11:15, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * It is not possible to publish content that cannot get deleted. Wikipedia is a work in progress, and thousands of editors are constantly working to improve it. However good your content is, somebody may decide later that it should be removed or replaced. ColinFine (talk) 15:33, 10 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Be aware, also, that we have pretty stringent expectations about things like spelling, grammar and punctuation; so when you make at least four obvious mistakes in a single sentence, it suggests that your work is going to be pretty drastically revised even if the research and sourcing are solid. -- Orange Mike &#124;  Talk  20:59, 10 January 2023 (UTC)


 * There isn't a sure fire way to make any content added un-deletable, Wikipedia is constantly changing and any content added by other editors may be changed either partially or as a whole. The best you can do is add sourced content which improves the article you are working on. Best of luck. StarryNightSky11 ☎ 00:31, 11 January 2023 (UTC)
