How to cite an already-gone IG story?
So I'm writing about AJR's "Yes I'm a Mess" music video. 3 weeks earlier, the band posted an Instagram story which hinted at the video's release. However, the video is now gone.

I found a tweet that reposted a screenshot from it.

I'm… kinda lost on how to cite the story. Baxyofh4rd (talk) 00:26, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * You shouldn't. A screenshot on twitter of a deleted Instagram post is not a reliable source. and even if it wasn't deleted it would need to follow the guidelines at WP:SOCIALMEDIA.  You will need to find other sources.  RudolfRed (talk) 01:26, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

What's the bot called that identifies sources?
I installed a bot/java script thing that identifies by colour the sources used under references for any wiki article (green is a reliable source, yellow is an iffy source, red is not a reliable source), but I can't recall what the official name of this "thing" is called here... A user asked me about it recently, and I can't seem to find what it is or where to install it. Help? Can anyone point me to the page for this bot? Oaktree b (talk) 03:15, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Shakespeare Authorship Question -- broken link
The "External Link" "The Shakespeare Authorship Question: E Pluribus Unum" – essay by Michael L. Hays is broken. The page is protected. How can the broken link be removed? NaNarGoon (talk) 03:43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Moving a draft page to live wikipedia page
I would like to know how to move a draft page to a live wikipeadia page if I don't have the more button that have the move button? I need assistance on how to move the draft page to live please. I do not see the move button on my menu. Frontlinestrat (talk) 09:02, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * New accounts cannot directly create articles, and must submit their drafts for review. I've now provided the information to permit you to submit the draft, on the draft itself(this is provided automatically if you use the article wizard). If you were to submit it now, though, it is not likely to be accepted, as it is highly promotional and several parts are unsourced.  Please see Your First Article. 331dot (talk) 09:22, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * If you are connected to this person, that needs to be disclosed, see WP:COI and WP:PAID. 331dot (talk) 09:23, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Since you are evidently part of Frontline Strat, an organisation founded by Matinyarare, you must, before you do anything else, do two things:
 * Change your username to a name that does not suggest that it represents an organisation. All accounts are personal. You don't have to use your real name (I do, but many editors don't), but it needs to be your personal account, used only by you as an individual. "Joe at Frontline" would be an acceptable name.
 * Make a formal declaration on your user page of your status as a paid editor. This is mandatory, and you will be in breach of Wikipedia's terms of service if you continue to edit without doing so.
 * Then you will probably need to throw your existing draft away and start again, because I believe you have written it BACKWARDS.
 * First, find sources wholly unconnected with Frontline Strat or Matinyarare that talk about him (not just about the company) in some depth. Wikipedia is basically not interested in what Matinyarare or his associates say or want to say, but only in what unconnected people have published about him. Ignore anything written or published by Frontline or Matinyarare, and anything based on a press release or interview.
 * If you cannot find several such sources, you will know that he does not currently meet Wikipedia's requirements for notability, and any attempt to write an article about him will fail.
 * If you can find the sources, then you need to forget everything you know about Matinyarare and Frontline and write an article based on what the sources say - even if you think they are wrong. (Do you see why editing with a conflict of interest is difficult)?
 * You should probably read (and show Matinyarare) PROUD and BOSS as well. ColinFine (talk) 14:48, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

How many times can an account be renamed?
Is there a limit to how many times a Wikipedia (or Wikimedia) account can be renamed? — AP 499D25  (talk)  09:36, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * hi @AP 499D25 and welcome to Wikipedia! I don't believe there is a strict limit to changing your username. happy editing! &#128156; melecie   talk  - 02:42, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @Melecie Thanks for the response! I could not find any info about the number of times a username can be changed, I guess I can change my name in peace now. I just didn't want a situation where I change my name but then a few years down the line I come up with another name but cannot change it again because of a limitation. I know on quite a number of online services, especially gaming ones, you can only change your name there once. — AP 499D25  (talk)  13:11, 29 October 2023 (UTC)

IP restricted sources
Hi, I've been unable to find what the policy is on referencing sources which are IP address restricted. Specifically: some movie articles reference reviews on Turner Classic Movies (http://www.tcm.com/tcmdb/), but TCM appears to be available only for USA/Canada IP addresses, otherwise you get a "not available" page (I am in the UK). It seems unhelpful that WP should allow geographically IP-restricted source links. Can anyone advise or point me to policy? Thanks! Tobyhoward (talk) 09:51, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * There is no requirement that a source be easy or free to access. I'm not aware of any specific policy on geo-locked websites, but if you really wanted to verify the source material you are free to travel to the US and use the internet there to view it, just the same as you would need to travel to view a book in the Library of Congress or New York Public Library. I realize you probably don't want to do that(I wouldn't) but that's your option. 331dot (talk) 09:57, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * See WP:PAYWALL, specifically: "Do not reject reliable sources just because they are difficult or costly to access. Some reliable sources are not easily accessible. For example, an online source may require payment, and a print-only source may be available only through libraries. Rare historical sources may even be available only in special museum collections and archives. If you have trouble accessing a source, others may be able to do so on your behalf". Not everything is on the web, many older books for instance only exist as hard copies. Martin of Sheffield (talk) 10:13, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Supplemental to 's reply: You can use a VPN to appear to be within the USA or Canada, it's probably cheaper than getting on an aeroplane! Martin of Sheffield (talk) 10:33, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * IP geo-locking is becoming commonplace for US news websites as well. They often say that it is because of the GDPR requirement in Europe. One possible way round this is to archive the link on the Wayback Machine or a similar service. It helps to archive the cite anyway.-- ♦Ian Ma c M♦  (talk to me) 10:47, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks @331dot, @Martin of Sheffield, @Ianmacm for your helpful replies. Cheers Tobyhoward (talk) 11:06, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Module:Age - Date format
Hello there! I wanted to ask a question at the aforementioned module's talk page but I got an edit notice suggesting I should actually ask it here or on the VP. (Not sure if we want tech-questions to be delegated here but I'm following its instructions at the moment.)

I recently imported Module:Age in my homewiki. Everything is fine but it uses the ymd format and in Albanian (my homewiki) we use the dmy format. Can someone show me in which line do I make the change for that? Thanks in advance! - Klein Muçi (talk) 11:38, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @Klein Muçi: Hi there! If you do not receive an answer here, I suggest posting your question at Module talk:Age.  Good luck! GoingBatty (talk) 13:26, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @GoingBatty, when starting a new topic on that page, an edit notice pops up which says Talk pages in this namespace are generally not watched by many users. Please consider visiting the Help desk or the village pump for a more prompt response. That's why Klein Muçi came here instead of posting there (as they explained above). That said, the talk page does seem to be semi-fairly-active, so a post there might actually get a response, in spite of what the edit notice says. 57.140.16.31 (talk) 13:38, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you - apologies to @Klein Muçi for not absorbing the first sentence before responding. GoingBatty (talk) 13:43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * GoingBatty, no problem at all. Thank you for your interest in trying to help! — Klein Muçi (talk) 14:59, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Trappist the monk, that does but this doesn't: January 1936, 28 This however does work: January 28, 1936 I've said ymd above but apparently I should have said ydm. — Klein Muçi (talk) 15:04, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * uses positional parameters which is not YMD format. Here are en.wiki, YMD format (1936-01-28) is allowed only in certain places, yet so far as a I know, we have not felt the need to rearrange these positional parameters to something other than the rational   arrangement.  Do you really  want to change that?
 * —Trappist the monk (talk) 15:51, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Trappist the monk, the thing is that in the Albanian official writing style guide there is only one order of acceptable date formats and that is DMY. We have rules for different styles of it, like how to act with abbreviations, punctuation and letter-number mixing but they all need to follow the DMY order. — Klein Muçi (talk) 16:05, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I got that, but parameter order is not a date format and never will be. Still, if you must, replace lines 608–619 with something that looks like this (not tested so I don't know if this change breaks something else):
 * —Trappist the monk (talk) 16:31, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Trappist the monk, ooh! Now I understand what you meant with "positional parameters". Well, fact is we may have some hundreds of articles showing errors because of that. We can of course bot-fix the problem but I suspect sq.wiki editors will mostly insist on that order intuitively even in the future so... Thank you! I'll try it out. — Klein Muçi (talk) 23:31, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

List of My Three Sons episodes
Does anyone know why seasons 10, 11 & 12 cannot be viewed on the List of My Three Sons episodes page. They were there not long ago. The source code for the three seasons are there. They work perfectly when seen with preview. A lot of work went into those seasons and they should be viewable.

 * I'm not sure what "Don't Close" at the end of Template:Episode table. means. There are 12 seasons, it will be a large page. Is there any way there could be two List of My Three Sons episodes pages? Maybe one with Seasons 1 - 5 and another page with seasons 6-12. It's important that these seasons be viewable. Thanks.

 * Thank you, Thank you. Entercontainment (talk) 13:12, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Better to split it so there are six seasons in each sublist, not five and seven. Clarityfiend (talk) 10:40, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Someone has fixed the problem. All the seasons are viewable. Thank you, thank you.

Author request deletions on my Gallery at Richard Whitney (artist)
I wish to delete the images with the following last names:  Harrington, King, McGivney, McIntyre and Matinee. Thank you!

Richard Whitney    Scriabin1 (talk) 15:54, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * - completely unsourced BLP - 57.140.16.31 (talk) 16:12, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @Scriabin1 You have recently made a large addition to the article Richard Whitney (artist), which is, presumably, about you. Because of your conflict of interest you should only make edit requests on the Talk page of that article. Please use the edit COI template, which will draw your request(s) to those editors who check these requests and implement them if they meet our policies and guidelines. Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:15, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear Mike, Years ago I was invited by a member of the Wikipedia team to post a page on Wikipedia because of my success as a well known artist as well as being listed in many reference books. There was no conflict of interest at the time.   It has been several years since I have updated my page and did so recently.  I wish to delete some images in order to add new portraits and keep my page up to date. Scriabin1 (talk) 17:36, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello. I don't see any particular reason to delete or not to delete those images. However, unless some reliable independent sources are cited, to establish notability, I predict that the whole article will shortly be nominated for deletion.
 * It does ascribe a couple of opinions, to Town & Country (magazine), and FineArt Connoisseur, but those are pretty useless without proper citations (I was going to add these, but I've just searched both sites, and found only one hit, a passing mention of you as a guild member).
 * Please understand that an article about you must be based on what independent people have published about you, not (at all) on what you or your associates say or want to say. I have just quickly looked, and been unable to find any. If you have such independent sources, please post them (with sufficient bibliographic information to actually find them) here or on the article's talk page.
 * One final point: I'm not sure why you wanted to remove those images, but you do realise that your release of them under a copyleft licence is irrevocable? They may be removed from Wikipedia, but will not be removed from Commons unless a deletion request with a suitable rationale is made there. ColinFine (talk) 16:38, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Dear Colin,
 * I wanted to delete much older paintings and replace them with newer work. Regarding references, you might wish to contact Portraits Inc, Vose Galleries, Guild of Boston Artists, Copley Society of Art, Francesca Anderson Fine Art and the Art Renewal Center to find out what my galleries have to say. I've had a very successful 50 year career as a professional artist. Scriabin1 (talk) 17:41, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi Mr. Whitney -
 * I went ahead and posted six images. This took some time as I had to cross-reference those people in your gallery, with those on the portrait list and the wikipedia articles to see who had an article about them. I linked all those people back to your biography. I have a requested some people double check the copyright tag to make sure I got it right.
 * http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=Richard_Whitney_(artist)

 * The article was created by, who still occasionally edits here. They are not any kind of staff member - just an experienced editor. 57.140.16.31 (talk) 19:34, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but no. First, it is the responsibility of those wanting to retain the article to provide the sources. Secondly, material from your galleries is not independent, and cannot contribute to establishing notability. ColinFine (talk) 19:05, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I have been listed on Wikipedia for 23 years - having first been posted by a member of the Wikipedia staff as proved in the copy of the email I posted to you above.  And now the rules are changed?  That does not seem right.  Please send me an email and I would be happy to email you a color jpg of the Fine Arts Connoisseur article and any other information you wish.  Please give me a chance to save my page.  Thank you!  Scriabin1 (talk) 19:48, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid not. There are no "members of the Wikipedia staff". The article was created by - an ordinary editor, like you or me - in 2006, when we were much less careful about standards of sourcing. There is no user on Wikipedia or Commons called "Bruce Anderson", but many people choose not to use their real names, and it is strongly frowned on to speculate on the real life identity of users.
 * Unfortunately, if you hadn't pointed us at the article, it's likely that nobody would have noticed it, like the hundreds of thousands or millions of other seriously substandard articles.
 * I am trying to save the article about you, by seeking sources. Frankly I am dubious that even if those two contain significant coverage of you, they will be enough to establish that you meet Wikipedia's criteria for notability, but I'm trying. I need to see them before I can add them as sources, though, so if you would email them to me that would be helpful (You can go to my user page User:ColinFine, and you should find "Email this user" as an option in one of the side menus).
 * If you can find any other independent sources (which, as I say, materials from your galleries are not: they naturally and appropriately have an interest in promoting you, but Wikipedia does not accept such sources), that would help. ColinFine (talk) 20:43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I have deleted the entire collections list and awards list as it would take a huge amount of time to verify each collector. I hope this solves any problems with this site.  Thank you so much for your help with this matter! Scriabin1 (talk) 00:20, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * I'm afraid it doesn't. It reduces the amount of unsourced information in the article, which is an improvement; but what remains is still unsourced, and therefore unacceptable. And there remains the question of whether there is enough material available to ground any article on. I've not so far had any replies to my request for the two sources you mentioned.

Worcester Palladium
I instinctively feel that there is something wrong with this page, but I don't know what. JackkBrown (talk) 16:29, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * You'll have to be clearer about the "something wrong", Jack. (Incidentally, English speakers don't use contractions like "it's" when they're final in a sentence: the is has the stress) ColinFine (talk) 16:43, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * @JackkBrown: It has summary information in the lead which is not in the article with appropriate references. See WP:LEAD. The long, rambling list of artists is particularly inappropriate. Bazza (talk) 16:44, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Just to look at a single sentence: "The Palladium was designed by architect Arlan W. Johnson [1] and opened as a theatre [2] in 1928 as the Plymouth Theatre. It has a seating capacity [3] of 2,160 in the Main Room and 500 in the upstairs room [4] and is a popular venue [5] for rock and metal bands."
 * It's safe to assume that the design of a building was by an architect. (If Johnson had instead been a ceramicist or a cooper or a criminologist, this would have been worth pointing out.)
 * In view of what swiftly follows in the same sentence, "as a theatre" seems redundant.
 * Strictly speaking these seating capacities may exclude capacities for authorized standing, but the distinction (if there is one) is perhaps pedantic, so "seating" could be cut.
 * Capitalized "Main Room" contrasts rather oddly with non-capitalized "upstairs room".
 * "A popular venue" could just be "popular".
 * Instinctively or otherwise, I feel that there's something wrong with most pages. As there are only so many hours in the day, I normally don't let this worry me. -- Hoary (talk) 23:02, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

About Jumbo Türkiye
Hello,

I created a page called Jumbo Türkiye, but it was sent for expedited deletion. A few hours later, the page was completely removed. The authorized person stated that the problem was in the company information box but no detailed explanation was given. Can you help with this? How can we activate the page? Sadic fatih (talk) 22:05, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Your account has no edits other than the above, and Jumbo Türkiye and Draft:Jumbo Türkiye have never existed. Was it on this Wikipedia? 331dot (talk) 22:09, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Yes, it was, but I didn't get an answer when I asked there. Sadic fatih (talk) 22:13, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * When you asked... where, exactly? Beeblebrox (talk) 22:21, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * , the message on Sadic fatih's user talk page indicates that they did create an article or a draft, (or a sandbox) which got speedily deleted.
 * Hello, Sadic Fatih. It sounds as if you have a (very common) misunderstanding of what Wikipedia is. An article about a company (or anything else) is a neutral summay of what independent published sources say about the company. Wikipedia is not interested in what the subject of an article says or wants to say about themselves, or what their associates say about them. Wikipedia is only interested in what people who have no connection with the subject, and who have not been prompted or fed information on behalf of the subject, have chosen to publish about the subject in reliable sources.
 * I can't see the deleted draft, but by the sound of it it was a promotional piece: that is not permitted on Wikipedia.
 * If you wish to proceed with this:
 * Clarify your connection with the company. If you are in any way employed or paid, make a formal declaration as explainmed on your user talk page.
 * Find sources that are wholly independent of the companmy - not written or published by the company or its staff or associates, and not based on press releases or interviews - and contain significant coverage about the company (not just mentions or routine stock-exchange events).
 * If you cannot find any, such sources, give up and do something else. You will not be able to create an article about it.
 * If you can find some sources forget everything that you know about the company and write an article based only on what those independent sources say. This is hard, which is one of the reasons that we strongly advise you not to write about a subject where you have a conflict of interest.

 * , I notice that you made a comment about this matter on Turkish Wikipedia. If you created the deleted page there, then English Wikipedia editors cannot help you with it. You must pursue the matter on Turkish Wikipedia. Cullen328 (talk) 22:38, 26 October 2023 (UTC)

Permission to reprint
I want to reprint one of the images in an article I wrote for the journal, Pediatric Research on the history of diapers. How do I ask (and hopefully get) permission? Cynthia 174.104.174.56 (talk) 23:42, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Do you mean an image that is in a Wikipedia article? Which one? RudolfRed (talk) 00:11, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Hello IP. Though the details asked for above would be necessary for specific advice, if the image is on Wikipedia, WP:COPY (particularly this section) may be helpful. Cheers, ayakanaa  ( t · c ) 02:34, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

Formatting of table in Union_Pearson_Express
Hi! I've added an (I think useful, and adequately cited) table to the section on ridership for Union Pearson Express but my table formatting leaves something to be desired - think this would ideally be right-aligned and inline with text, as opposed to creating a big break in page. Not sure how to achieve this - thank you! Goyston talk, contribs 23:53, 26 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Hello @Goyston! I fixed the issue by changing the table class to . Help:Table may be helpful in the future. Cheers,  ayakanaa  ( t · c ) 02:42, 27 October 2023 (UTC)
