Hi, Sorry first try to add information on the subject. I know he played in 1965 for my father’s team (Norfolk Neptunes) and adding that to his history. Also there is a “template” I would like to update the 1965 year with information. Also is my my input “properly verified”? --Rbs8083 (talk) 23:29, 3 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Rbs8083 and welcome to Wikipedia! You are more than welcome to add anything to that article, as long as you have a reliable source for it. Since Henning is alive you will need to follow the WP:BLP policy. I'm not familiar with that specific template but there is documentation at Template:Infobox college coach. I'm not sure what you mean by "properly verified" but you should make sure your additions have reliable sources. I've put a welcome message on your talk page with some more useful links. I hope this helps, if you've got any more questions please feel free to ask! Ultraodan (talk) 03:33, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to keep getting removed. Is that me or someone else? “…Norfolk Neptunes in 1965 and the…” Rbs8083 (talk) 12:52, 4 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Rbs8083 your first attempt was reverted by User:Jocelyn's Dance and they left a message on your talk page explaining that. If you ask on theirs they can probably give more clarity. If you've been trying to edit it since, it hasn't reached Wikipedia's servers. Make sure you're pressing the publish button, if it keeps failing it's worth asking the folks at WP:VPT or Help:DESK.

Question from Pubex (10:59, 13 May 2025)

Hi! I recently added a journal ranking table (Scopus, IF, JCI) to the PNAS article, based on JRank.net, but it was reverted. Could you help me understand what policy or guideline I may have violated (e.g., source reliability or formatting)? I’d like to add useful ranking data in a way that follows Wikipedia standards. Thanks! I aimed to present verifiable data in a clean table, following Wikipedia’s Manual of Style. If JRank is not considered reliable enough on its own, I'm happy to find and cite official Scopus or Web of Science URLs instead.

Please let me know if there’s a preferred format or source I should use. Happy to revise accordingly. Thanks! --Pubex (talk) 10:59, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Pubex, this is an area I'm not super familiar with but I can help you with general advice. In general, make sure you follow the requirements at reliable sources. You can see in the edit history that the revert reason was listed as Added content is not appropriate for this article. You'll probably get better answers if you ask the editor who reverted you (User:ZergTwo) on their talk page.

P.S. I accidentally posted something on your talk page with a missclick, I've reverted it so sorry about the ghost notification. Ultraodan (talk) 11:19, 13 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Patcholive (21:59, 16 May 2025)

Is there a trick to finding more interesting suggested edits? There are a lot of pages in this list but they don't seem great --Patcholive (talk) 21:59, 16 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Patcholive and welcome to Wikipedia! There isn't a way to find better suggested edits as far as I'm aware, other than looking for pages you're interested in and seeing if you can improve them. Ultraodan (talk) 11:35, 17 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Almanachas (19:27, 19 May 2025)

Hey, Ultra! I know this may sound extremely cheesy, but I joined wikipedia with the personal goal of... creating my personal page. Before you start laughing - I am a Lithuanian sports commentator, working with the biggest local basketball and football broadcasts, as well as international sporting events, such as the FIFA World Cup. I have more than twelve years of experience in this field, and I also have won three Lithuanian national freestyle rap battle events, going undefeated on all three occasions (3/3). Also, I have received the M.A.M.A. award (the Lithuanian equivalent of Grammy's) as the best hip-hop artist of the year. Do I fulfill the notability criteria and is it possible to create my own personal page? --Almanachas (talk) 19:27, 19 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Almanachas and welcome to Wikipedia. Do you meet the notability criteria? Maybe. You'll need reliable sources talking about you specifically, you'd probably fall under WP:JOURNALIST or WP:ANYBIO but still pay attention to the general notability guidelines. As for if you can create your own page, it is strongly discouraged. There's a full explanation at WP:YOURSELF but in short if you want to you will have to use the articles for creation process and make it very clear that you're writing about yourself.

Question from Adistar1516A (15:05, 22 May 2025)

Hello I am new to Wikipedia and would like to contribute to this platform, could you help me on where to start. Thank you. --Adistar1516A (talk) 15:05, 22 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Adistar1516A and welcome to Wikipedia! There's a lot of ways to contribute. Someone has already posted a message on your talk page with some useful links. I recommend starting by looking at Help:Introduction to Wikipedia. Ultraodan (talk) 10:03, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from OrrMarkC (15:05, 23 May 2025)

how do i create a page --OrrMarkC (talk) 15:05, 23 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @OrrMarkC and welcome to Wikipedia! Since you're new to create a page you will need to use the WP:AFC process. They've got some very helpful guides with how to do this. I also recommend looking at WP:YFA. If you've got any other questions please ask me! Ultraodan (talk) 09:07, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Question from IIega on Wikipedia:Sleeper account (22:11, 24 May 2025)

Hello, how do I create a citation? --IIega (talk) 22:11, 24 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @IIega and welcome to Wikipedia! This really depends on what you're trying to cite. There's a long list of templates at HELP:CS1 so you can find what you're looking for. These templates help citations all (mostly) look the same so that there's no confusion. They're not required but they make life a lot easier. If you've got any other questions or want me to clarify anything please ask! Ultraodan (talk) 09:11, 25 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
