Question from ConcernedDKfan (05:55, 2 August 2025)

Hi there. Can you help me get this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Underdown opened as an AfD request? I commented on the Talk page for AfD requests, however, I fear nobody will reply to me as I see a lot of empty slots. It seems the people in charge do not check, so a nudge would suffice. --ConcernedDKfan (talk) 05:55, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Done. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:24, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Much appreciated. Do I have to participate in the request myself? Can I? And is there a way to slightly modify the reason? I posted a more detailed version elsewhere. ConcernedDKfan (talk) 03:03, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you may participate if you'd like, just click the reply button. You can elaborate on your reasoning in the same way. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 07:57, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Arthur L LaFlam (20:24, 18 August 2025)

Hi ... How do I start my genealogy on the LaFlam Family from France to Canada to the United States? --Arthur L LaFlam (talk) 20:24, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Arthur L LaFlam: Hi, does your family already have an article, or is it famous/well-known in some way? Wikipedia generally isn't a genealogy site, maybe try something like Ancestry.com or FamilySearch? ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 23:53, 18 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

May have broke again?

The bot just made an update of nothing, when it should have definitely included the 2 articles I ref fixed 20 minutes ago. I just made another one after the update time, so I guess we'll see what happens with the next hour update? Silver seren^C 02:30, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Silver seren: Sorry about that! The tracker seemed to have froze, but a restart fixed it. I forced an update of the leaderboard, so your articles should now be there. Nothing should have been lost during the freeze, but if you do notice something, please let me know.ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 02:46, 21 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Bot counted a weird one

Hey, back to back sections on your talk page. I feel special. :P

Anyways, it counted this as a unreferenced tag removal? I would presume, since I haven't seen it come up before, that the bot already knows to not count removal of unreferenced section tags, but this was just a specific edge case of how it was changed that wasn't included in its no-registration set? Silver seren^C 17:12, 23 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Silver seren: Welcome back :)

You're correct in that the bot knows not to count section removals. When tagging pages for unsourced sections, the two main ways to do it are with {{Unreferenced section}}, which is recommended, and with {{unreferenced}}, with |1= set to section (ex.) These two will add the article to Category:All articles needing additional references, which the bot correctly ignores. I got a bit confused in my previous reply, but it seems {{unreferenced|section is also a correct way of adding it.

However, this appears to be case sensitive for some reason, so {{unreferenced|Section (with capital S) will not add Category:All articles needing additional references, and instead incorrectly add Category:All articles lacking sources.

Question from Deepak7559 (13:20, 27 August 2025)

Sir, I had edited the Jangid page...but it was not published...why --Deepak7559 (talk) 13:20, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Deepak7559: Hi, your edits were blocked by the edit filter. You can see the list here. Please do not remove the short description and make sure your edits are formatted properly, with no all-caps or unnecessary asteriks. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:14, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

then how to fix it Deepak7559 (talk) 18:13, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

By using correct formatting. Don't use all-caps or asterisks, write normally, and cite reliable sources. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 19:46, 27 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Stop removing the short description. It's the thing that starts with {{short description| or looks like a puzzle piece that says "Short description" after it. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:37, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from PrStato (18:06, 31 August 2025)

I need a photo for this article I’m working on, (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clivunellidae, if it helps) how should/can I get it? --PrStato (talk) 18:06, 31 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PrStato: Hi, you can try searching Wikimedia Commons to see if there are any useful photos. If not, you can try searching online through sites like Flickr or iNaturalist, and finding using ones that have compatible copyright licenses. Those can then be uploaded to Commons, and used on your article.

On a side note, please double check your references. I can't find the first paper online and the title, volume, date and page range for the second paper do not match on Springer, nor does it mention "Clivunellidae". ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 02:08, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it, is it good, or at least better, now?Clivunellidae PrStato (talk) 16:27, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed it, (Clivunellidae) any other suggestions? PrStato (talk) 16:35, 1 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Better, thanks. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 15:56, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from PrStato (12:07, 2 September 2025)

This https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clivunella article’s sidebar looks weird and has incorrect information, how do I fix it? --PrStato (talk) 12:07, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PrStato: Regarding the fossil range, please use {{Geological range}}. I'm not familiar with this fossil, which parts of the infobox are incorrect? Your issues with referencing mentioned above are in this page as well. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:00, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It is a genus, not a species, yet the species place is filled out for some reason and is bold. PrStato (talk) 21:42, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

And I fixed the other stuff, hopefully. PrStato (talk) 21:48, 2 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PrStato: For the infobox, you are currently using {{speciesbox}}, which is for species. Since that is a genus, you should be using {{Automatic taxobox}} instead. Simply switching it out should work. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 18:02, 3 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from PrStato (03:09, 7 September 2025)

Did I fix this abomination of an article? Check the history of this article and tell me what I did and didn’t do right. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hereditary_sensory_and_autonomic_neuropathy --PrStato (talk) 03:09, 7 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PrStato: Seems fine for the most part. If you are going to be editing medical articles, please take a look at Wikipedia:Identifying reliable sources (medicine). Medical articles should have more stringent sourcing requirements. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 18:16, 7 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Kampotcitizen (09:31, 13 September 2025)

Please i need it right now 🙏 Kampotcitizen (talk) 09:35, 13 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Kampotcitizen: Hi, please go to c:Special:UploadWizard, and follow the instructions there to upload it to Wikimedia Commons. Once you have uploaded it, you can add it to whatever article you want by pasting in [[File:YourFileName]]. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 16:34, 13 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lemme declined this but do you know how to do pushping? I working on it and it's very hard. Kampotcitizen (talk) 09:53, 14 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Kampotcitizen: Hi, who's Lemme, and what's pushping? ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 17:19, 14 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

i meant let me and the pushpin was like the pin location on the map Kampotcitizen (talk) 03:48, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Kampotcitizen: Hi, I'm not too familiar with maps, but as far as I can tell from {{Infobox settlement }}, you just need to put the map image in the |pushpin_map parameter, and put in the coordinates in the |coordinates parameter ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 13:30, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from ScholarOfSources (03:36, 15 September 2025)

Hey! If I publish a page, will it get accepted, regardless of how old my account is? All information on the page are based on sources cited. --ScholarOfSources (talk) 03:36, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@ScholarOfSources: Hi, whether or not your page gets published (assuming you are submitting it through WP:AfC), depends on the quality of the sources cited. How old your account is shouldn't matter much, if at all. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 13:27, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Ezekiel Ochieng (13:26, 16 September 2025)

I haven't logged in much at the moment so I can find a question to ask, but what prompted me to open an account on Wikipedia is that I have been using it to learn and understand world history. --Ezekiel Ochieng (talk) 13:26, 16 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Punkholm (17:29, 17 September 2025)

Hi - I have a pretty popular podcast and would like to create a wikipedia page for it. How do I do that? --Punkholm (talk) 17:29, 17 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Punkholm: Hi, you first need to evaluate the notability of your podcast. Are there multiple reliable sources like news articles, that discuss or review your podcast? ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 20:06, 17 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes there are articles on the show as well as data from a range of podcast reports and rankings themselves Punkholm (talk) 22:38, 17 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Punkholm: In that case, you can start a draft through the Wikipedia:Article wizard. Once you feel it is ready, click the submit button at the top of the page, and another editor will review it and either accept it or decline it with feedback.

Once you have uploaded it, you can add it to whatever article you want by pasting in [[File:YourFileName]]. ARandomName123 (talk)^{Ping me!} 00:00, 19 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Pj599: Hi, when you add images into the |image= part of the infobox, you don't need to include the [[File:]] parts of it. Just Linshidong.png should be fine. However, please make sure the images you upload are released under a compatible copyright license, for example into the public domain or CC-BY. Please note that the vast majority of images on the internet are copyrighted, and not released under a compatible license, and so can not be uploaded to Wikipedia.

How do I verify who I am? I am Jabari’s mother. Latosha Roberson. I am requesting editing to this page as I’m unable to make the corrections by myself because of conflict of interest. However, Jabari is my youngest son. LaLaGemini (talk) 06:41, 25 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@LaLaGemini: Hi, if you would like to request an edit to a page, you usually do not need to verify your identity. However, if there are concerns you are impersonating someone, please email info-en@wikimedia.org including your real name and username. Again, this is probably not necessary for most situations.

As for editing the page, you can file a conflict-of-interest edit request at Wikipedia:Edit Request Wizard/COI, describing what you would like to change, along with reliable sources. Due to the backlog of such requests, it may take a while to resolve. Alternatively, you can make a post at the Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons/Noticeboard, or email info-en-q@wikimedia.org for more serious concerns.

Temporary account IP viewer granted

Hello, ARandomName123. Per your request, your account has been granted temporary-account-viewer rights. You are now able to reveal the IP addresses of individuals using temporary accounts that are not visible to the general public. This is very sensitive information that is only to be used to aid in anti-abuse workflows. Please take a moment to review Wikipedia:Temporary account IP viewer for more information on this user right. It is important to remember:

You must not share IP address data with someone who does not have the same access permissions unless disclosure is permissible as per guidelines listed at Foundation:Policy:Wikimedia Access to Temporary Account IP Addresses Policy.
Access must not be used for political control, to apply pressure on editors, or as a threat against another editor in a content dispute. There must be a valid reason to investigate a temporary user. Note that using multiple temporary accounts is not forbidden, so long as they are not used in violation of policies (for example, block or ban evasion).

It is also important to note that the following actions are logged for others to see:

When a user accepts the preference that enables or disables IP reveal for their account.
Revealing an IP address of a temporary account.
Listing the temporary accounts that are associated with one or more IP addresses (using the CIDR notation format).

Remember, even if a user is violating policy, avoid revealing personal information if possible. Use temporary account usernames rather than disclosing IP addresses directly, or give information such as same network/not same network or similar. If you do not want the user right anymore then please ask me or another administrator and it will be removed for you. You may also voluntarily give up access at any time by visiting Special:Preferences. Happy editing! asilvering (talk) 21:00, 27 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Asking for Review

Hey! How are you? I saw your a student in Canada, I visited Toronto last year and let me tell you, it was FREEZING, Respect to you for getting used to the cold. Back to the topic, I came by an article which was denied, I researched about the individual and found some independent sources, he is a pharmacologist and my father was one too so it inspired work on his profile. I did what i could to make the article neutral, removed all the self published links, added independent sources and fixed the article. I have submitted it for review can you have a look?
