== incomplete information on an article. ==

I am referring to Carrie Underwood's 'See you again' Wikipedia page, under the heading 'Video'.

The article did a fine job detailing EVERY SINGLE clip that was featured...all except for one.  The clip of the dog and woman being reunited after 3.5 years from PRISON.

I suppose it was a silly mix up.  

Or is Carrie Underwood unbiased enough to feature MY VIDEO.....and Wikipedia, not so much??

Please dont leave my story out. 

Thank you.

== Lead length ==

Hello! I've read the instructions at [[WP:LEADLENGTH]] and I still don't have a clear idea. The given unit ("x paragraphs") is quite ambiguous, becase the standard length of a paragraph is not defined. Can you give me an approximation of the number of characters / lines required for the intro of the article [[Kingdom of Hungary]]? For the no of lines please consider the current dimension of the in the right of the page.

::It would certainly be defensible to roughly double the length of the current lead section. BUT, as noted, the purpose of the lead section is to summarize the article. I don't think the current lead section does that: it's basically a list of the areas covered by the kingdom.

:::::('''e/c''') From what I've just read and tested, it appears only registered, autoconfirmed users can ''save'' books in the book namespace. Registered but non-autoconfirmed users can save books in their userpage. IPs cannot save them at all, but can create them and download them or order them from pediapress. It looks to me like the problem is that if you're not saving as you go, and get a "loss of session data", or if a dynamic IP user's address changes in the middle, or if there's any kind of refresh, etc., the book will be gone, and even worse, IPs aren't told they can't save up front so they may work on it with that intention. I'm thinking we don't do enough in the front end of the book interface to tell people about this.--[[User:Fuhghettaboutit|Fuhghettaboutit]] ([[User talk:Fuhghettaboutit|talk]]) 12:41, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

Hello,

I'm the operations assistant of the Drummondville Voltigeurs and we've noticed a mistake on the Wikipedia page concerning our Team.

there's something wrong on the page : [[Drummondville Voltigeurs]]

It says : The Drummondville "Drumsticks" ... should be Drummondville Voltigeurs. I don't know where this word came from. Could you please fix this issue?

Thank you very much.

Hi,

I want to bring to your attention to the article on [[K. C. Mammen Mappillai]].
In the family section, the wrong K.M Cherian has been referenced to. ( Link provided is wrong)
Dr. K.M cherian who is a leading Cardio surgeon in India is not the son of Mr. K.C Mammen Mappillai as written in this article.

== Repeated citations in infoboxes ==

I fix a lot of broken references, but one problem has me stumped. In [[:Assassin's Creed II]] and [[:James Deen]], repeated citations in infoboxes show up in the reference section with '''"Cite error: The named reference ... was invoked but never defined"'''. I've had a look in [[:Help:Cite errors/Cite error references no text]], but everything seems fine with the repeated citations. They just seem to fail when repeated in an infobox. Is this a bug, and if so, is there a workaround?

== Duplicate Page - one is incorrect ==

Hi there,

We (Daler-Rowney)seem to have two pages on Wikipedia and really we only need one.  One of the pages has a hypen between Daler and Rowney, like this: daler-rowney [[Daler-Rowney]] and the other does not (daler rowney) [[Daler Rowney]].  The page with the hyphen is correct but the other page could either be redirected to the correct page or could be deleted.  Could you tell me how to do this please?

I was wondering how many of the articles I tagged for deletion actually get deleted. So I went to the deletion log tag - right? And there I got 1 article returned. Why do I not see anything else?

From that you can count your deletions (after removing the false positives – pages you edited that were deleted not based on your taggings). Since you always use "speedy" in your edit summary, you can then cross-reference against all pages you've tagged for speedy deletion that ''still exist'', from [http://toolserver.org/~snottywong/cgi-bin/commentsearch.cgi?name=Antiqueight&search=speedy&max=500&server=enwiki&ns=0 this search] (plus [http://toolserver.org/~snottywong/cgi-bin/commentsearch.cgi?name=Antiqueight&search=speedy&max=500&server=enwiki&ns=2 this] and [http://toolserver.org/~snottywong/cgi-bin/commentsearch.cgi?name=Antiqueight&search=speedy&max=500&server=enwiki&ns=4 this]). You have no others in any namespaces but possibly for some in the user talk namespace. Unfortunately, in that namespace the search finds all of your warnings where you used "speedy" in the edit summary, so you might miss a few there.--[[User:Fuhghettaboutit|Fuhghettaboutit]] ([[User talk:Fuhghettaboutit|talk]]) 01:11, 30 October 2013 (UTC)

::::: It's a bit more complicated than going through your contributions, because ''edits of deleted pages aren't included in [[Special:Contributions]], and aren't visible to non-admin editors.

The astronomical researcher Adnan Al-Shawafi reveals the secret behind the movement of planet Pluto

“The planet of Pluto is a planet that is coupled with its moon Charon and it rotates around a phantom mass outside its center at a distance of 5,400 km, and that Pluto is subject to all laws in the area of astronomy and physics" 
Researcher :Adnan Ali Abdulkhleq Al-Shawafi

I hope your kind to publish the above subject
How the researcher concluded this discovery
The above-mentioned discovery is just a result reached through eight new compound laws based on physic-mathematical formulas proven by mathematical logic that cannot be disputed. These rulesreveals the secret of universal balance from the moon up to the galaxy and a key for new scientific horizon to discover the matter or the universe without exaggeration since the astronomy science needs such input for the time being. 
In addition, I wish to table Adnan’s laws and formulas on universal balance for discussion by internationally-recognized judgment institutions and experts either through correspondence or face to face!

== expired copyright? ==

For a proposed article about an author and public figure, now deceased, I would like to use a photo of him published on the back page of his novel in 1952. The photo has a credit to the photographer, but no copyright notice. I would not post this on Wikimedia but only in the article. May I?

::In general for a work published in 1952, the copyright will have expired unless it was renewed. if it was renewed, it will still be under copyright. However if it was never published, different rules apply. Those get Life of the author plus 70 years, or 120 years from date of creation if no author can be identified. So an unpublished photo (or text) from 1952 would still be under copyright. See [http://copyright.cornell.edu/resources/publicdomain.cfm this page] for more details.

If not so renewed, now in public domain" [http://navigator.carolon.net/ this site] shows a similar rule. [http://www.bpmlegal.com/copyterm.html This site] says "Published, or copyright registered, between 1950 and the end of 1963 / 28 years for first term, and could have been renewed for 67 years (total of 95 years). ... If the copyright was not timely renewed, copyright expired at the end of the first 28 year term." http://chart.copyrightdata.com/#top shows a similar rule.

== Editing help ==

An article subject which I am affiliated with, [[Studley, Inc.]], recently had the majority of it's content removed and has been reduced to a stub. I firmly believe the subject is meets Wikipedia's notability guidelines and that all of the references were valid and should not have been taken down. I am asking for the help of somebody to please restore the most recent content on that page. From there I am not opposed to the necessary measures of having any inadequate references removed or correcting any 'advertising' language. Please help. Thank you.

:Some pretty aggressive deletions - see [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Studley,_Inc.&oldid=571821300 this version], for comparison. The deletion of the following citation, and the related information in the article, for example, seems to me very questionable:

:::Hellman, Peter (2004). ''Shaping the Skyline: The World According to Real Estate Visionary Julien Studley''. Hoboken, New Jersey: Wiley. pp. 80–81. {{ISBN|0471657662}}.

:[[John Wiley & Sons]] isn't exactly a vanity publisher. I'm going to ping [[User:Justlettersandnumbers]], who did the massive deletion, to see if he/she would explain why he/she thinks a totally gutted article is preferable to one with COI and vanity issues. (It has been more than six weeks since the massive deletion, so it doesn't look as if he/she is going to do any repairs.) -- <span style="font-family:Monotype Corsiva; font-size:15px;">[[User:John Broughton|John Broughton]] </span>  [[User talk:John Broughton |(♫♫)]] 22:28, 29 October 2013 (UTC)

::For those who, unlike {{u|John Broughton}}, are not necessarily familiar with the background here: COIN discussions are [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard/Archive 64#RyLaughlin]] and [[Wikipedia:Conflict of interest/Noticeboard/Archive 66#RyLaughlin]]; [[User talk:RyLaughlin]] has a number of attempts to engage with him by various editors, including myself. I don't disagree with RyLaughlin's suggestion that the company is probably notable. I don't see anything particularly "aggressive" in the edits I made to the article, but am open to discussion on that. Wikipedia articles are supposed to evolve by interested but uninvolved editors adding relevant material to them. COI editing disables that process. The article will doubtless evolve over time. Of course I have no objection to the Hellman source being added back to it if that seems desirable.

::One of the sentences in [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Studley,_Inc.&oldid=571821300 the above noted version] reads: "Additionally, Studley has represented major law firms in every market in the United States,[19] including each of the top five of The American Lawyer's 2013 Top 100 Law Firms.[20][21][22][23][24][25]" That appears to be [[WP:SYN|synthesis]] of published material that advances a position (e.g. linking to seven published materials to advance the position that Studley has represented major law firms in every market in the United States, including each of the top five of The American Lawyer's 2013 Top 100 Law Firms). I have no objection to some of the material being returned to the article so long as the person returning the material to the article confirms that each reference used to support the material summarizes the information and rather than synthesizes it. It also seems fine to leave the change as is and let uninvolved editors add in sourced material over time. -- [[User:Jreferee|Jreferee]] ([[User talk:Jreferee|talk]]) 10:21, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
:::Looking at the deleted text closer, I don't think any of it should be returned: "the worldwide (implied) pioneer of tenant representation," (there's no sourcing to support "pioneer") "handed the rein" (p.r. speak), "next generation of leaders" (cite? how do you know they are "leaders"?), "spearheaded by" (P.R. speak), "''Their services include acquisition and disposition, financial and strategic consulting, site planning and selection, transaction negotiation, design and construction consulting, strategic consulting, project management, planning and forecasting, cost control, implementation management, development services, supply chain and logistics, strategic planning and finance, incentives maximization, portfolio management and lease administration.''" (are you sure you didn't leave anything out? Where is the independent sourcing to support this? Without independent sourcing, there is no way for Wikipedia editors to know objectively whether Wikipedia readers will care for such information.), "represented many notable companies" (what makes them notable and where is the source for that?), "Studley pioneered the commercial real estate market survey"(pioneered? really? is that a fact capable of being proven true and established as being true or p.r. speak? where's the sourceing); "Studley also boasts two winners" (So Wikipedia also should boasts the two Studley winners as well). -- [[User:Jreferee|Jreferee]] ([[User talk:Jreferee|talk]]) 10:40, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
Can somebody please assist me with edits? I will be happy to supply primary and secondary sources. I don't think the page should be deleted because of an editors inexperience with Wikipedia.

: If editors independent of the company supply information supported by published [[WP:reliable sources|reliable sources]] independent of the subject, and if this information demonstrates [[WP:notability|notability]], then this can be noted at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Studley, Inc.]] and the deletion nomination would be unlikely to succeed. - [[User:David Biddulph|David Biddulph]] ([[User talk:David Biddulph|talk]]) 16:08, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
 	
::{{ec}}If you will post links to online sources at [[Talk:Studley, Inc.]], along with a suggestion of what those sources support, i will be happy to look at them and edit the article if I find relevant content. For thisa purpose, it is highly desirable that all or most of the sources be [[WP:RS|reliable sources]], in this case meaning that they are independent of the article's subject, published, not blogs or otherwise self-published, with some reputation for accuracy, and that they discuss the subject in some depth -- directory listings are of no use at all, and mere one-sentence passing mentions are of almost no use. Ideally there should be several paragraphs or more in a source that discuss the subject. [[User:DESiegel|DES]] [[User talk:DESiegel|<sup>(talk)</sup>]] 16:13, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
