Question from Gilang setyo pramono on Wikipedia:Contact us (01:37, 1 May 2025)

upaya saya membuat akun wikipedia tidak sia sia --Gilang setyo pramono (talk) 01:37, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

@Gilang setyo pramono your message machine translates as "my efforts to create a wikipedia account were not in vain" - since this is english wikipedia i would ask you to write in english, not indonesian. anything else wikipedia-related i can help with? Mujinga (talk) 07:59, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Ahmad MousaviPour (17:32, 1 May 2025)

Hi dear friend I recently joined Wikipedia.

I'm experienced flamenco guitarist and guitar teacher

I want to write my biography in Wikipedia I wrote the material once but it was removed how to i write my biography and send the resources or videos and photos needed to who Can you explane step by step? --Ahmad MousaviPour (talk) 17:32, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Ahmad MousaviPour I don't think you understand that wikipedia is an encyclopedia and has notability requirements. If you are notable enough on wikipedia standards, someone else will make an article about you, without the conflict of interest. I hope that makes sense. If you have more questions you can always ask them at Wikipedia:Teahouse. Mujinga (talk) 19:32, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

I realize that thanks for your response🙏.

But unfortunately I was not convinced 😊

why I have to wait someone else to write about me

While everyone says it can be done for example wikipedia on the description was said you can done it for yourself

I have released 10 music albums universally, and I had many international teaching guitar work activities & i have many concert with my band

I want to register them in wikipedia to protect my albums and I want to be not forget over time.

My goal it's not to be very famous at all ofcourse a lot of people know me

I just write about myself real and without any change and I call myself he and I have a degree for every post.

If you tell me how to write it thank you 🌻🌻🌻 Ahmad MousaviPour (talk) 21:57, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from SilverChops on Pocatello, Idaho (02:55, 2 May 2025)

The "2025 Shooting Incident" second contains a lot of poor grammar, questionable accuracy of fact and what appears to be interpretation of a third party's motives and lastly the entire section is an attempt to highjack the page for anti-police activism. It has been 'refined' once or twice and removed and replaced.

What is the appropriate action? I thought there used to be a discussion option for editors to share opinions and evaluations on such things. Thanks! --SilverChops (talk) 02:55, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

@SilverChops yes the discussion option is still there on the talk page - Talk:Pocatello, Idaho and you have some helpful links at User talk:SilverChops Mujinga (talk) 08:45, 2 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from PMC1015 on Gardo Versoza (00:13, 4 May 2025)

Hello, I was suggested this. Any suggestions on what I should change? --PMC1015 (talk) 00:13, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi @PMC1015 if there's nothing that needs doing, I'd move to the next suggestion. Also you have helpful links at User talk:PMC1015 Mujinga (talk) 16:29, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Oussama Douhabi on User:Oussama Douhabi (09:59, 4 May 2025)

Hello, how do I make a title please? --Oussama Douhabi (talk) 09:59, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

@Oussama Douhabi you mean how to make a heading? MOS:SECTIONHEAD covers that and if you follow the links at User_talk:Oussama_Douhabi they should be helpful more generally Mujinga (talk) 16:30, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Deadfrog04 (15:49, 8 May 2025)

Hello, I recently edited a page to add a band that someone was in, but this band doesn’t have a Wikipedia page. How do I create a page so that it can link to something? --Deadfrog04 (talk) 15:49, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

@Deadfrog04 hiya seems like you worked that out for Higley (band) although I would urge you to find better references, that is to say significant coverage in reliable sources, since the current referencing might not survive a deletion dicussion. Mujinga (talk) 20:08, 8 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Betrayal of Justice on User:Betrayal of Justice (14:42, 9 May 2025)

Good morning my awesome and amazing mentor! I am trying to publish a wikipedia page about our film. I thought I did it. However when I Google the film Betrayal of Justice: A buffalo soldier story and nothing comes up. Please help. Thanks --Betrayal of Justice (talk) 14:42, 9 May 2025 (UTC)

hi @Betrayal of Justice i'd ask you to rethink your use of wikipedia. it's an encyclopedia not a promotional tool. i'd advise you to delete the contents of User:Betrayal of Justice, since that will be deleted for being promotional. you have a clear conflict of interest here. Mujinga (talk) 07:06, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

So how would I get the page published without having a conflict of interest? This film is about an important event in American history. People have been asking if we have a wikipedia page for the film. Betrayal of Justice (talk) 13:22, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

@Betrayal of Justice is there any significatnt coverage in reliable independent sources? Mujinga (talk) 14:09, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

yes. Newspapers and film festival selections Betrayal of Justice (talk) 16:56, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

care to share? @Betrayal of Justice Mujinga (talk) 18:39, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

https://www.grandrapidsfilmfestival.com/pastevents

It's under short film finalist, (2023 winners circle) Betrayal of Justice (talk) 03:49, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

hi @Betrayal of Justice if that's your best offer, then i'm afraid i don't think the film is notable under wikipedia standards. that's no judgement at all on the film, it just concerns notability per Wikipedia:Notability. actually now of course i see your user name is promotional, that also doesn't work to wikipedia encyclopedic standards per Wikipedia:Username_policy#Promotional_usernames Mujinga (talk) 08:10, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

I have more publications. How can I send them all at once to you? Betrayal of Justice (talk) 18:57, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Cajundome24 (21:45, 10 May 2025)

Hello, I recently found a section with no strong reference and it seemed kind of randomly stated. Should I delete the section or add "citation needed"? --Cajundome24 (talk) 21:45, 10 May 2025 (UTC)

hi @Cajundome24 either step would be justifiable, it simply depends how egeregious the randomness is. anything that is plaigirised or libellous for example should be deleted on sight. a citation needed tag might be helpful if people are working on the page already. certainly take action, that's how wikipedia improves and you learn! Mujinga (talk) 07:08, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Dermotmacm (12:12, 11 May 2025)

Any chance you could handle this? I'm an absolute beginner. --Dermotmacm (talk) 12:12, 11 May 2025 (UTC)

@Dermotmacm you'll be grand! you have some helpful links at User talk:Dermotmacm Mujinga (talk) 07:04, 12 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Footy Archivist (07:38, 13 May 2025)

I have found a newspaper article of the North Melbourne Football Club which recognises in the football club's 1888 annual meeting, the club won its first two premierships in the second 20 VFA (Victorian Football Association) competition in 1886 and 1887. The coach Mr. Guest (Second 20 Team Secretary) was given a photograph of his back-to-back premiership team and reappointed for the 1888 season. This is a significant addition to the early pioneer heritage of this proud Australian Football League (AFL) club. SOURCE: http://trove.nla.gov.au/ndp/del/article/66149178?searchTerm=North Melbourne Football Club &searchLimits=

Please advise how I should best proceed. Thanks. Footy Archivisit. --Footy Archivist (talk) 07:38, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

hi @Footy Archivist since you are asking about a football related issue, i would say have alook at Wikipedia:WikiProject Football and leave a message at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Football if you still have questions. good luck! Mujinga (talk) 14:08, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

Thank you Mujinga. Will do. 110.175.117.191 (talk) 21:19, 13 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Fawkjufase (02:07, 17 May 2025)

I am trying to edit a page and I was told I need to add a reference, is there a proper way of doing that without just typing "this is my reference" and then adding the reference. --Fawkjufase (talk) 02:07, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

hi @Fawkjufase yes it can be hard at first to understand the wikipedia system of editing but it is rewarding to learn it! the explanation at User_talk:Fawkjufase is showing you how to do things. let me know if you have further questions Mujinga (talk) 08:57, 17 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from PRB69 (19:01, 19 May 2025)

Hello, I've created a Wikipedia entry and am ready to submit it to an editor for publication. I can't seem to find exactly how to go about this, after studying all the help documents. Thanks for any help! --PRB69 (talk) 19:01, 19 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Coolbanana13 (11:17, 22 May 2025)

Hello Mujinga, I hope this message finds you well. What should be done about vandals on pages? I have reverted the changes but I am not sure if any additional action should be taken, Thanks, Coolbanana13 --Coolbanana13 (talk) 11:17, 22 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Coolbanana13 from looking at your contributions listed at Special:Contributions/Coolbanana13 I suppose you mean Fairvale High School. As a beginner here you don't need to take further action, hopefully if the vandalism continues another editor will notice. If the vandalism continues without anyone noticing you could always take it to the centralised way to contact an administrator at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard.

Question from Bulletbilliam (20:09, 23 May 2025)

Hi I was making an article about JJ murphy a man who was claimed to have had potential to be America's first Irish president. I got reputable sources and less reptuables sources. some questions I have is what to do when quantity of reputable sources are low. and second is how to get images licensed properly. --Bulletbilliam (talk) 20:09, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

I dont agree on the fact these sources are less reputable in this scenario (bloggers) as it was from a third would country with low access to print media and its the passionate people who have nothing to gain from it who are boots down investigating, I hope I didnt come across wrongly in this statement. Bulletbilliam (talk) 20:13, 23 May 2025 (UTC)

@Bulletbilliam welcome to wikipedia! well the article has been declined with reasons given so it would be good to read those carefully. for images, this link tells you about the process - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:First_steps/Uploading_files. happy editing! Mujinga (talk) 19:47, 24 May 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for the response I actually submitted another iteration from scratch catering to the feedback. Now fingers crossed and another three months. I added tags is there any other way to get a pair of eyes on them. Bulletbilliam (talk) 21:39, 28 May 2025 (UTC)

Question from Erty2000 (04:02, 26 May 2025)

Hi! I've been wanting to improve pages about city neighborhoods, and was wondering if you knew of good resources that explained how the No Original Research policy works with census data? It seems like demographics sections often come from people aggregating census data, but then I see editors in other places saying that this is a policy violation. In practice, it seems like pages end up a little all over the place for this. Would you have any guidance/know where I should ask about this? Thanks! --Erty2000 (talk) 04:02, 26 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi @Erty2000, thanks for a great question! you have stumped me, so I would advise asking at either Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_U.S._Census (I'm assumign from your edit history you are in the USA) or the teahouse at Wikipedia:Teahouse, which is a centralised place to ask questions. happy editing!

Question from RadMan1010 (02:00, 27 May 2025)

Hi, One page I'm editing has a pretty good consensus on being merged https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shot_peening_of_steel_belts

I'm not sure how to go about this kind of merge, other than copying the content and references into the lager article.

Any advice for this process? --RadMan1010 (talk) 02:00, 27 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi @RadMan1010 there is a debate open at Talk:Shot_peening#Merge_proposal so the way forward would be to discuss it there first. Happy editing! Mujinga (talk) 14:50, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
