== Re: Archie Henderson (comedian) ==

Hello. I created an article about [[Archie Henderson (comedian)]] and just went to upload it. I then discovered there were versions in draft that have been rejected a few times. 

What is the protocol about uploading a new version which, I believe, has sufficient quality citations? bbc.co.uk, theguardian.com, telegraph.co.uk plus newspapers. 

It is a much reduced version of what was proposed before, but I believe it fits requirements. 

Do I just copy and paste my new article into the draft space? Any suggestions appreciated. 

Thank you

:I will suggest you to improve [[Draft:Archie Henderson (comedian)]]. It was declined couple of times and needs improvement, you can improve that. If you think that some portion from that draft need to be removed (''non-cited'') do it and if you have enough sources from across the web, then include them too.–– [[User:KEmel49|kemel49]]<sup>([[User talk:KEmel49|connect]])([[Special:Contributions/KEmel49|contri]])</sup> 04:23, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
::@[[User:KEmel49|KEmel49]] thanks - the thing is I have already written and prepared an entire article already so I feel a bit ''meh'' about having to rejig what's already there. I might try uploading mine and see what happens. [[User:BJCHK|BJCHK]] ([[User talk:BJCHK|talk]]) 05:12, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

== I want to make a draft page but it is a redirect. ==

I would like to make a draft page for the [[Iyanya]] album ''Applaudise'' but it's a redirect. Should I just turn the redirect to a page? [[User:OsigbemheEJB|OsigbemheEJB]] ([[User talk:OsigbemheEJB|talk]]) 04:51, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

:First create a draft as [[Draft:Applaudise]]. after completing that draft, Submit to [[WP:AFC|AFC]]. rest will be done then only.–– [[User:KEmel49|kemel49]]<sup>([[User talk:KEmel49|connect]])([[Special:Contributions/KEmel49|contri]])</sup> 05:21, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
:@[[User:OsigbemheEJB|OsigbemheEJB]] You are autoconfirmed and reasonably experienced, so there is nothing to prevent you creating a new article at the redirect [[Applaudise]], if you are confident it will survive the [[WP:NPP|new pages patrol]], who check all such new submissions. My advice would be to develop the text in your sandbox so that when you first overwrite the redirect the new article already looks OK. [[User:Michael D. Turnbull|Mike Turnbull]] ([[User talk:Michael D. Turnbull|talk]]) 10:46, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
::@[[User:OsigbemheEJB|OsigbemheEJB]] Well done. That looks fine to me. [[User:Michael D. Turnbull|Mike Turnbull]] ([[User talk:Michael D. Turnbull|talk]]) 10:59, 26 August 2024 (UTC)

== Regensburg subcamp ==

There's a discussion of the footnotes on [[Talk:Regensburg subcamp]]. Not to mention the lack of engagement from the primary author, s/he doesn't seem to have the skill to fix the references so that the resources are moved to the bottom and titled bibliography. This is standard for better quality articles. I am not a subject matter expert in this topic so I'm requesting some help over in that section <u>of the talk page</u>.

== Change Display Name of Article ==

Hi team I recently Published an Article I wanna Change it's Display name Please help me about it.
My Author's name is "Howard Hughes III" but on Article it's showing "Edward Hughes" please help me
in this regard.
thanks [[User:Saadkhan1233|Saadkhan1233]] ([[User talk:Saadkhan1233|talk]]) 11:11, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

:{{u|Saadkhan1233}} You added links to an article about a completely different person([[Edward Hughes]]) than the person you wrote about.  Your draft is located at [[Draft:Howard Hughes III]].  As a new user you cannot directly create articles and must submit your draft for a review. 
:You will need to disclose your connection to Mr. Hughes, please see [[WP:COI]] and [[WP:PAID]].  It appears that you know him as you took professional looking images of him and he posed for you. [[User:331dot|331dot]] ([[User talk:331dot|talk]]) 11:22, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
:Your draft is also completely unsourced. See [[WP:REFB|Referencing for Beginners]]. [[User:331dot|331dot]] ([[User talk:331dot|talk]]) 11:24, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
::There ''were'' references at the version of the article which had hijacked the dabpage [[Edward Hughes]], none of which were [[WP:IS|independent of the subject]], and none of which contributed to [[WP:ANYBIO|notability]]. {{U|Saadkhan1233}}, it seems you and {{U|Hbhughes3}} have a serious misimpression about the purpose of Wikipedia.

== Link to a subheading within a Wikipedia article ==

In a Wikipedia article, is there a way to link to a *subheading* within another Wikipedia article, as opposed to linking to the full article? As an example, how do I link to "Early life (1732–1752)" subheading in the article [[George Washington]]? Thanks! [[User:Tfhentz|Tfhentz]] ([[User talk:Tfhentz|talk]]) 13:39, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

:Put a # after the article name and then write the name of the heading: [[George Washington#Early life (1732–1752)]]. See [[WP:ANCHOR]] for detailed instructions. [[User:Perception312|Perception312]] ([[User talk:Perception312|talk]]) 13:46, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

== Emojis ==

These emojis appear as boxes for me: [[🪾]][[🫜]][[🫆]][[🪉]][[🫩]][[🫟]]. How do I make this not happen?

:{{re|Frost}} I don't know about the rest of them, but the first one is "leafless tree" and is in the set of emoji unicodes in the draft inclusion for this year. Wikipedia sends the new unicode. Your browser interprets it. You will not see the actual emoji until your browser gets updated, probably early next year. see [https://emojipedia.org/leafless-tree this article]. -[[User:Arch dude|Arch dude]] ([[User talk:Arch dude|talk]]) 16:37, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

== Looking for a second set of eyes on this userspace draft ==

While going through AfC pending reviews, I stumbled upon a draft submitted today, [[User:John Balao/sandbox|here]] (User:John Balao/sandbox). This page appears to be a copy-and-paste from somewhere, and even Turnitin shows ~75% similarity to a few sites. However, I can't seem to find where this was pasted from to report a copyvio.

The article itself has several formatting oddities, which led me to believe this was a definite copyvio, but does anyone think I'm missing something? Recommended course of action, or a user to step in who knows more about this situation? Regards, <span style="text-shadow:7px 7px 8px blue; font-family:Papyrus color:#3399ff">[[User:OnlyNano|OnlyNano]]<sup>[[User_talk:OnlyNano|talk]]</sup></span> 19:05, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
: {{re|OnlyNano}} Another edit has declined it as giant wall of unformatted text.  I did notice the submission started with "EDIT BELOWCASE STUDY", so maybe it is from a medical textbook.  Did you check the sites Turnitin suggested? [[User:RudolfRed|RudolfRed]] ([[User talk:RudolfRed|talk]]) 19:14, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
::Yes, they seemed to have some content copied, but not actual sentances. <span style="text-shadow:7px 7px 8px blue; font-family:Papyrus color:#3399ff">[[User:OnlyNano|OnlyNano]]<sup>[[User_talk:OnlyNano|talk]]</sup></span> 20:02, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
:I mean, it's extremely obviously copypasted from ''somewhere''. A positive identification of the source shouldn't be necessary to delete as copyvio. [[User:Folly Mox|Folly Mox]] ([[User talk:Folly Mox|talk]]) 19:54, 24 August 2024 (UTC)
::Great point, thanks! <span style="text-shadow:7px 7px 8px blue; font-family:Papyrus color:#3399ff">[[User:OnlyNano|OnlyNano]]<sup>[[User_talk:OnlyNano|talk]]</sup></span> 20:03, 24 August 2024 (UTC)

== Can socks override SNOW? ==

A merge request on the page [[Severe weather sequence of July 13–16, 2024]] has had unanimous consensus for about 2 weeks now. However, the two times it has been closed were by socks of [[WP:LTA/Andrew5]], who improperly closed it under two different accounts over the past 2 days. I was considering closing it myself, but I am an involved editor and the situation with the socks might overrule that. Also, at [[WP:CR]], the second sock requested a closer, but it was denied due to sock activity. I know [[WP:SNOW]] dictates that involved editors can close discussions with unanimous consensus, but if an involved closer didn't, I'm unsure if involved editors have the authority to do it. Is it fair to finish closing the merge myself, given unanimous consensus? Note none of the socks had voted on the merge !vote.
