Where did my profile on Wiki go?

I am opera singer Korliss Uecker. My profile was posted several years ago by a publicist. IIt was there recently but now is gone. IIt was a lot of work to edit etc. Where is it? Who can I contact? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.113.41.103 (talk) 07:22, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a social media site that has profiles; it is an encyclopedia which has articles on subjects which are condidered notable, meaning that the subject has been the subject of significant coverage by multiple published reliable sources independent of the subject. If you click on the red link to the article Korliss Uecker you will see that the article was deleted because it was created by a banned or blocked user. --David Biddulph (talk) 07:36, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

(edit conflict) It was deleted in December 2016 by admin @JzG:. The article had been created by a blocked user circumventing a block. I just need explain the terminology around here as you've used language that can rile people. It's not "your profile", Wikipedia doesn't have profiles, it has encyclopaedic articles about noteworthy subjects that have been covered in reliable independent sources. No one owns an article here, anyone can (and will) edit an article, the subject has no control over the contents whatsoever and is actively discouraged from editing the article. Also seeing as you said it was your publicist, there are Paid editing and Conflict of interest issues. - X201 (talk) 07:38, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

question

Wikipedia:Requests_for_page_protection I made a request at this page for protection(Dyslexia), and there are several other editors who have requests as well, is there anyone over there?, thank you--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 12:48, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Hello Ozzie10aaaa, hope you're well. WP:RFPP is well manned and someone will handle your request soon enough. Having said that, I should also mention that with respect to the article you wish protected, as the vandalizing IP editor has already been blocked, there doesn't seem to be an immediate need for protection. But I'll leave it to the responding administrator at RFPP. If there's anything else you need assistance in, feel free to ask. Thanks. Lourdes 14:08, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Removal of maintenance template

I've deleted the references for this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorsport_Industry_Association since they were too generic. Should more be added in order for the top template to be removed? It's been there since April 2011 and the team at the MIA are not sure how to rectify the issue. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.160.128.192 (talk) 14:49, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi there, your question makes me think that you have some sort of connection with the Motorsport Industry Association, and if so, you have a conflict of interest (COI), and so you must disclose this. If you are paid to edit here, see this page. There's also a page of the help available to editors with COIs. Your edits to the page haven't done much to the overall page, and there are still only two inline citations, but more general references (in the News items section), and so the message about This article includes a list of references... ({{more footnotes}}) should still stay on the page in my opinion. However, I am removing the one about the external links ({{external links}}), as I don't see any inappropriate use of external links. If you do have a COI, please read the links about them I've left in this message. Thanks.  Seagull123  Φ  18:54, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi,

I've helped Nishidani with a merge of Bardi people into Baada. As this is my first merge, would someone mind casting an eye over what I did, and letting me know if I missed anything, or did anything incorrectly? Thanks! Stephen! ^Coming... 16:32, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Stephen, hello and hope you're doing well. The merge looks neatly done procedurally. Just one small observation; post the merge, the term "Bardi people" suddenly appears in the midst of the article, without a previous connecting explanation. You or Nishidani might wish to consider connecting Baada with Bardi people right in the lead (something like, "also known as Bardi people"). Thanks. Lourdes 07:03, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Google Search Image connected to Wikipedia Page

Hi there,

When I do a search for The Heckscher Foundation for Children, the logo that appears with the Wikipedia entry is an old version. I've already updated the logo on the Wikipedia page itself so how can I make it sync with the Google search results? Thank you!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by SMF0501 (talk • contribs) 17:45, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

@SMF0501: Wikipedia has no control over what appears in Google search results. The message here may be of interest to you. Can I also ask, the logo you uploaded, File:Heckscher Foundation Logo.png, you have tagged with a cc-by-sa-4.0 licence, and you have said it is you own work; however, since this is a company logo, I doubt that you have personally created the work, and at the bottom of the organisation's website it says "© 2017 THE HECKSCHER FOUNDATION FOR CHILDREN", with no mention of a Creative Commons licence - so, could you please confirm that the logo has been licenced under the cc-by-sa-4.0 licence? You may wish to see this page about confirming licencing. The logo may be in the public domain (PD-logo) if it doesn't reach the threshold of originality, however, I am not an expert, so you may wish to visit the copyright village pump Wikimedia Commons, or see this page about licencing on Commons.  Seagull123  Φ  18:45, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

This is a rare case where Google did actually get the image from the Wikipedia article. The logo was replaced in the article three days ago. It's possible Google will automatically replace it soon but we have no control over that. PrimeHunter (talk) 20:42, 15 August 2017 (UTC)

Otters

Comment: While watching National Geographic on 8/9/2017, cable channel 283, in TN at 4pm central time re: otter, I noticed that the otters were in a sanctuary of mentoring female otter who were acting as mothers teaching the baby otter how to survive. The sanctuary was housed in a, what looked like, large barrel of some kind. MY CONCERN: where the mentors/mother were teaching the baby otters how to crack a shell against the walls of the enclosure, there were chips of paint missing. Hopefully, this is not something that the otter are eating mistakenly. I am just concerned for the otters. You are aware of the affects of paint chips to a human, just concerned about the otters.

What qualifies as trivia, and what is a reliable source?

I recently made an edit to the page on Neil Degrasse Tyson, where I noted that he made an appearance on a song by Avenged Sevenfold. I understand how this could be seen as trivial, but I thought that it was uncharacteristic enough that people would be interested to know. If someone wanted to look into it, there's a nice story tied to it. For reference, I used a youtube video where a member of the band told an interviewer about it. User Dp76764 undid my edit with the message "GFE, but non-notable trivia. please find a reliable 3rd party source. youtube is not one". While this fact is somewhat trivial, I thought it made for an intriguing window into Tyson's character, as someone who would push boundaries to teach about science. Also, by using a youtube video for reference, I thought that the video of the band member themselves delivering the data was the source, not youtube. I believe my reference was as close to a first party reference as I could get. I have already looked through help articles and such, but I do not know how to communicate with Dp76764 about this issue. If I am in the wrong, I'd like to know why. If I am in the right, I'd like to know the proper way to resolve this issue with the person who reverted my edit. https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Neil_deGrasse_Tyson&action=history The edits were made on 11 August 2017 Samuel010898 (talk) 00:55, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

I find this rv rather odd based on the edit summary reason: considering the section specifically refers to Tyson's "Media appearances" and the question of "notable trivia" is a fine line, since this is mostly made up of "trivia" in "popular culture". Second, references within this section are cited directly to YouTube (i.e. "Everything wrong with Gravity") I think this editor is simply hashing with semantics, honestly. If they are going to nitpick a section that is mostly trivia and has YouTube videos for reference, then they need to heavily scrub and clean-up the section themselves. That being said, it is easily referenced by a third party to support your content. I say: get right back in there, find that reliable source and reinsert it WP:BOLD. Try these: [1], [2], [3]. There can be no contest regarding these sources. If you have any more difficulty with this edit, notify me on my Talk Page. Good luck! Maineartists (talk) 01:10, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

The revert was correct based on the quality of the reference; Youtube does not cut it. Any of the other references given above should though. --Elmidae (talk · contribs) 22:57, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Actually the revert was incorrect, and I have restored the cite. It is not enought to say that Youtube does not cut it. Many YouTube videos are perfectly relaible sources, many more are not. Postings on the official channels of reliable sources are themselves relaible, and their beign on youtube matters no more than the quality of paper that a newspaper is printed on. In this case, the video was on the official channel of Metal Hammer, which is blue-linked and appears to be a relaible source for this sort of thing. DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 23:11, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

DES Thanks. WP needs to begin taking YouTube clips individually into consideration and at their own merit, I believe. There is just too much umbrella blanketing of disqualification at present for the site as an unacceptable source. However, I do hope the other sources I brought will suffice, too. Maineartists (talk) 23:30, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

I might have reverted this on the grounds of it needing a source that establishes some level of significance, as discussed at WP:IPCV. The text doesn't make it clear to me that his appearance on the album is particularly noteworthy. DonIago (talk) 00:57, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

New version of file (replace photo with rendering to improve resolution)

I want to contribute to the quality of the Santorini (game) article by adding a high resolution image which is a rendering of a model I made based on the infobox photo in the article. The rendering is (arguably) a replacement for the photo, and I have already added it to the wiki commons. How should I go about adding it to the article? Upload a new version of the existing photo? Replace it on the page?

I'd like for someone to take a look and advise, please. Thanks! Jsejcksn (talk) 01:37, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

I find your rendering clearer and better than the photograph currently in the article. Some editors may disagree. I suggest you put your version on the article's talk page and ask for opinions – and if no-one responds for a week or so, just go ahead and make the change.

Hidden links to Wikidata: how to make more obvious?

So I figured out that the wrong information for a page here was coming from Wikidata, fixed that, then ranted about how arcane that whole process is at Wikidata.

Coming back here I'd love to attempt to make the mysterious more clear.

'Repository' in the infobox at page Blink (web engine) happens to come from Wikidata. There is no indication that that is true, except for maybe the existence in the left sidebar of an item under 'Tools' - "Wikidata item" - which does go to the 'shadow' page over at Wikidata.

?) If perhaps maybe one or more infobox items might have data infiltrated in from Wikidata, is the presence of the link under 'Tools' the trustworthy indication? Or are so many pages here now having tiny pieces from Wikidata that that link's presence is useless as an indication? (Carrot points to Carrot which informs me that a carrot is shaped like a cone. Ah'yep.)

?) Is there any foolproof way to determine whether infobox data is coming from Wikidata, other than comparing the page's source for the infobox with the presence and value of data in the 'shadow' page at Wikidata? This is all very complicated and non-obvious.

If one should happen to peer into the documentation for Template:Infobox_software/doc there are some BTW mentions in descriptions that two values 'might' come from Wikidata: 'website' and 'repo' (repository). How does one know that *only* these two values might come from Wikidata?

Limply helpful is a notice tucked away at top of the template documentation in the midst of so much else that it is completely obscured that "This template uses the Wikidata property: official website (P856)", and also that "This template tracks the Wikidata property: official website (P856)".

?) What is the difference between 'uses' and 'tracks'? I've looked around and still can't figure it out.

I wanted to know because we need to add one or both of

{{[Uses Wikidata|P1324}}

{{Tracks Wikidata|P1324}}

to the existing "{{Uses Wikidata|P856}}{{Tracks Wikidata|P856}}" in that documentation. This is an oversight. (And in how many other places also?) But again, which one?

And in fact links like P1324 should probably be added to the mentions in the template description, such that "..., infobox attempts to acquire the website link from Wikidata." ought to something like "..., infobox attempts to acquire the website link from Wikidata. (see P1324)"

There are too many mysteries here to think that anyone would be comfortable saying that integration with Wikidata is in a good state. But in the meantime, can you point to answers to any of these questions, here, at Wikidata, or elsewhere? Or... even better places to rant? ;) Shenme (talk) 01:43, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi Shenme. The best place to ask questions (and to rant) would be Wikipedia:Village pump (technical), since many Wikidata discussions happen there. You can search the Village pump archives to see the discussions and RFCs. StarryGrandma (talk) 02:03, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Hi again Shenme. I could not find any documentation. However, after reading templates and categories I have come to the following conclusions:

• Tracks wikidata allows some process to go through articles and add them to the hidden categories in Category:Wikipedia categories tracking Wikidata differences such as Category:No local image but image on Wikidata. I don't know what use is made of this data; perhaps bots then move things to Wikidata. A template editor decides that articles using the template should be patrolled in this way.
• Uses Wikidata shows the users of the template that the code of the template will read the value from the associated property in Wikidata. You can view the source and search for "#property" to see if that documentation is accurate. For example {{infobox software}} has a template that says it uses official website (P856). However the source shows that it also uses repository (P1324). {{infobox telescope}} is an example of template using Wikidata where Mike Peel has provided very clear documentation that is always up-to-date. That template also provides a little pencil icon next to each item from Wikidata (except for links to websites) in the infobox for the article. If you hover over it it says "Edit this on Wikidata".

Hope this helps a bit. StarryGrandma (talk) 04:45, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Thank you greatly for pointers to that template. See below. Shenme (talk) 22:42, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

All pages with a Wikidata item will link to that on "Wikidata item" under "Tools". A page has a Wikidata item if there is a Wikidata item with a sitelink to the page, for example wikidata:Q9603949#sitelinks-wikipedia. The page may or may not use the Wikidata item. Wikidata usage is usually but not always via templates in Category:Templates using data from Wikidata. Links under "Languages" and "In other projects" in the left pane are nearly always from the Wikidata item. If you edit a page or preview code then the bottom of the Window may have a collapsible list saying "Wikidata entities used in this page". It can vary whether and how template documentation mentions Wikidata use. That's the responsibility of English Wikipedia editors and not editors at Wikidata. Wikidata is used by hundreds of wikis and other features. Each wiki has its own templates. Some infoboxes display a Wikidata link in the rendered infobox but I think that's mainly infoboxes which get a lot of content from Wikidata. See Oxygen for an example with "in Wikidata" at the bottom right of the infobox. The use of Wikidata in the English Wikipedia could be discussed at Wikipedia:WikiProject Wikidata but activity seems low. PrimeHunter (talk) 11:17, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• @Shenme: As @StarryGrandma says, please do have a look at {{Infobox telescope}} (a good example of it in use is the South Pole Telescope article), and let me know what you think about the links and documentation there. For tracking categories it uses Category:Articles using Infobox telescope using locally defined parameters or Category:Articles with infoboxes completely from Wikidata. If that looks good, then I would be happy to work on a version of {{Infobox software}} that uses the same approach to including Wikidata values, and/or provide examples of the code for how it works if you'd like to have a go at doing this yourself. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 11:25, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

@Mike Peel: I have linked to the template and a usage in replies to my query at Wikidata, as demonstration that better process clarity is possible. Note there the last comment, where a short guide for the first-time visitor is contemplated.

I love the pencil shortcut. Does it appear only when the data item has actually come from Wikidata? Is there any way to do that for every Wikidata-source item, including such as 'website'? (the occasional editor won't have read documentation saying that is always a possibility. It would be fantastic to have a visible dead-certain yes/no indication - source locally or globally?)

I have no beef with the sharing of centralized data from Wikidata - that is working. But the implementation is incomplete when the difficulty is so great for the uninitiated, just wanting to fix one fact and return to their usual editing. You've shown good progress is possible here. Wikidata just need to realize the urgency of completing the implementation, the end-to-end round-trip process. Shenme (talk) 22:42, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Removing the lists of departments would help. Maproom (talk) 07:16, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Hello. Welcome to Wikipedia. You could consider reading Wikipedia's NOTADVERTISING policy as well as the SPAM guideline to know why Wikipedia does not welcome advertising attempts. SPAMMER is a part of the above mentioned guideline which recommends a few steps to ensure your material is not considered spam.

Adding to what Maproom has said above, in the particular article, most of the claims are unreferenced (you need to provide reliable sources to support the claims). Statements like "Currae Hospitals is now recognised by NABH (National Accreditation Board for Hospitals & Healthcare Providers, India) for its quality of healthcare" has the hospital's advertisement being provided as a source (and that's not acceptable). Further, giving all the department names of the various divisions under the hospital seems belabored and almost spammy. While you can work on these suggestions, the best place to discuss this issue is the talk page of the article. Some editor has already left their comments on that page; continue discussions there. Feel free to come back here for clarifications if you get stuck up somewhere. Thanks. Lourdes 07:28, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Aspro There are now two cited sources which are reviews from major publications: the Washington Post and the New York Times. They are surely enough to contribute to notability. They may not be enough on their own to establish notability, but until a WP:BEFORE search is done, there is no way to know what other sources may be out there. This should not be nominated at AfD unless the nominator has done a BEFORE search (nor, in general, should any article when the issue is notability). DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 22:18, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• The problem is that neither of these two references indicate notability because they are both just reviews. Much the same as they have food critics reviewing restaurant etc. to provide the reader with a broad range of reading matter (which provides more pages into which they can insert even more adverts - in order for the publication can stay in business) . For this article to stay (as an encyclopedic article here) we need references to show that she is an author which has risen above the many tens of thousands of wordsmiths – and I can't find a single one! If Anaveciana had submitted her article about herself as a draft for review first, it probably would not be accepted for lack of reference showing notability.

A false information regarding a company named Business Initiative Directions

Hi,

Since august 6 an entry appeared claiming that Business Initiative Directions is a company that sells "vanity awards" or fake awards. This company is a Spanish communication consultancy agency, specialized in marketing, corporate marketing and corporate events. They have several events, some of them called International Quality Awards have a fee and include an award gala at the end of the event. To call this a "fake" or a "scam" as it is imply in the entry, its dishonest. They have 50 years working under Spanish law and more than 20 years now under the European Legislation. Is a well known and renowned company in Spain and their line of business is clear: the promote other companies and organizations. Is marketing. Like many other things. The people behind this attacks is hurting a legal company, that is working in total compliance with the European law. The entry is TOXIC is causing massive damage to BID clients and BID reputation. Its unbelievable that Wikipedia will allow the use of its international renowned for some kind of business revenge. Please stop this. BID is willing to provide all information regarding the matter in their offices in Madrid at any given time. Wikipedia was never meant for ruining people business. This is shameful.

This is the entry https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Business_Initiative_Directions — Preceding unsigned comment added by FernandoSantiago (talk • contribs) 21:05, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

This looks like a candidate for AfD, which would solve the issue. Aspro (talk) 21:21, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• Wikipedia only cares about what is stated in published reliable sources. We're not saying anything about these awards, we're only saying that this group says something about them. I will also advise you to read WP:NLT before an admin blocks you for the legal threat you made in your last edit to that article. Crow^Caw 21:45, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Aspro: it looked like a candidate for AfD when FernandoSantiago had deleted all the references. They have since been restored, repeatedly. Maproom (talk) 22:36, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

• Still could be... of the 6 sources, 4 are the company itself and 2 are the watchdog agencies calling the company out... Crow^Caw 22:40, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

But has anyone done a competent search for sources that exist but are not in the article? As specified in WP:BEFORE that should be done before starting an AfD. I don't know what such a search will disclose. it might confirm lack of notability, or make it clear that the business is notable. Meanwhile, please see User talk:DESiegel#Nomination of Business Initiative Directions for deletion or help. DES ^(talk)_{DESiegel Contribs} 22:46, 16 August 2017 (UTC)

Lupton family

Ref number 106 has been altered (vandalised?) by another editor and is now an incorrect quote. I mucked up trying to revert this person's edit. The line in the text and the quote in the ref are now all wrong - with an accent in the line. Also, this editor needs to understand that a person's FULL TITLE should be used initially - and then their surname only. Please advise the editor called "esmgee". Thanks for your help with ref 106. Srbernadette (talk) 01:24, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

The edits to the quotation in that reference were made by you. The words in the quote before your edit were direct quotes from the reference document, whereas the wording you added was not in the reference document. You must NOT include as a "quote" wording which is not in the document being used as a reference. I have therefore reverted your changes.

You have used the word "vandalised" in regard to the edits by User:Esemgee. You need to read, very carefully, Wikipedia's definition at WP:Vandalism. Esemgeee is making good-faith efforts to improve the article, and in no way can that be regarded as vandalism. If your own edits continue to be dispruptive they are liable to be reverted. --David Biddulph (talk) 01:43, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

My main concern RE vandalism was when editor "Esmgee" removed - without a decent explanation - a photo of Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge from the Olive Middleton section on this page. The records show that editor KeithD replaced the photo. We both were certain that Catherine's descent from Olive Middleton (she is Olive's great granddaughter) was significant and relevant to this section of the article. The photo remains today - but there are concerns that at any given moment the editor Esemgee will remove it again, citing the reason as "namedropping" et al. I have often chosen to give the correct title of a member of the nobility when the person is first referenced - subsequently only using their surname. Esemgee consistently states that they consider this "namedropping", only using their christian and surnames throughout the article. Any suggestions to guide us? Thanks for your continued help and we will keep working together. Srbernadette (talk) 04:45, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

Hello, EarlMcAlpine. The instructions that the copyright holder needs to follow are at donating copyright materials. What kind of material are you intending to upload? If it is an image, that is fine; if you are talking about uploading text, it is rare that that is appropriate, as text created for other purposes is rarely sufficiently neutral to be used in a Wikipedia article, other than short cited quotes. --ColinFine (talk) 09:49, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

A question regarding use of titles of nobility

I have re-read this page - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Naming_conventions_(royalty_and_nobility)#British_nobility

If, for example, the text says that "Susan Smith married John Jones" and John Jones some time later became John Jones, 2nd Baron London (and has a Wikipedia page) shouldn't the text put John Jones, later 2nd Baron London with a link to the page?

OR

Do we put that "Susan Smith married John Jones, 2nd Baron London".

I must add that EVERY TIME I put in a person's title, one editor will tell me I am "name dropping". Please advise.

We understand that after mentioning the full title in the first instance, the rest of the text only refers to the person with their surname.

Thanks Srbernadette (talk) 02:38, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

While (in my personal opinion), linking to 2nd Baron London seems appropriate (and no, you don't need to mention either the full title or give the link after the first instance of mentioning and linking the same), these discussions are best to be held on the talk page of any particular article you are referring to. Thanks. Lourdes 10:39, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

Getting an article published in Wikipedia

What is the process for submitting and getting approval for publication of a new article in Wikipedia? Are there criteria for approval? Is it a lengthy process?

Thanks, Steven Crozier Seattle, WA — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sleecrozier (talk • contribs) 15:30, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

See WP:42 (which explains why most articles are deleted) and WP:My first article. If an article is written correctly (which means more time spent before posting it), then there really isn't any sort of process beyond posting it. If it is not written correctly (not enough sources, or it has plagiarism or copyright violations, or it's written to promote something) then keeping the article is going to be a long and painful process.

When I write articles (such as Livre des Esperitz or Magical Treatise of Solomon), I:

• gather all professionally published mainstream academic or journalistic sources that are specifically about the topic but not affiliated with it
• summarize the relevant portions of those sources (sticking the citations behind those summaries) in Microsoft Notepad (with no formatting)
• combine those summaries into a paraphrase (moving the citations throughout as necessary), again in Notepad
• post that article as the first draft, and expand from there using other sources (such as ones that only discuss the topic in passing or are affiliated, though don't rely too much on affiliated sources)

It's more work, but when I follow through with that plan my articles do not get tagged for deletion.

Ian.thomson (talk) 15:44, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

There two processes. One is a process called New Page Patrol where reviewers make sure that articles do not meet the criteria for speedy deletion, or What Wikipedia is not. Articles are not indexed by search engines until the have been patrolled or they are 90 days old. Another process called Articles for Creation is available to unregistered editors or editors with a conflict of interest. Articles for creation are created in draft space, accepted upon a favourable review and moved into mainspace by an AfC reviewer. Mduvekot (talk) 16:30, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

How to create a page

Hi- I am trying to figure out how to make a wikipedia page for my company. can you please send me the steps on how to do it!

Thanks, Ashley — Preceding unsigned comment added by Innercirclesports (talk • contribs) 19:25, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

@Innercirclesports. Hi, please first read conflict of interest (COI), and please note that you shouldn't really write an article for a company you work for. Wikipedia's policy on COIs says "Do not edit Wikipedia in your own interests or in the interests of your external relationships." Writing an article for Wikipedia is harder than many people realize. Even professional writers find that the format and style needed for a good encyclopedia article are different than what might be appropriate for other venues. You could:

• Get someone else to do it—If your only goal is to make sure that an article is added to Wikipedia, you can request that someone write an article on the subject.
• Start by editing other articles—If you are interested in becoming an editor at Wikipedia, our experience demonstrates that it is better to start by improving existing articles, which will help you get a sense of how this place works, and then you will be ready to write your first article from scratch. A good place to visit is the Wikipedia backlog, where there are literally hundreds of thousands of articles needing help from editors. Find an article in a subject area you know, and add a source, or a reference, or simply help write it better.
• Go ahead and try—If you do decide to write an article immediately, please read our policy on conflicts of interest, then read our guide to writing your first article, which will repeat some of the good advice above. Then please use the Article wizard, which will help you through the steps. I urge you to accept the option to save your first draft in your user subpage, which will reduce the chance your work will be deleted before it is ready.

How do I get my band and their Biography in Wikipedia ? Can I make my own and add it or does someone else have to do it ? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Johnnyshutup (talk • contribs) 20:48, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

@Johnnyshutup: Yes, basically you are strongly discouraged from creating any articles on a topic with which you have a close connection. (See WP:COI for more info). Wikipedia relies upon information gathered from independent reliable sources with no direct connection to the subject and has little, if any interest in what that subject may have to say about itself. If your band is 'notable' in the Wikipedia sense then undoubtedly someone will create an article about it in due course. Wikipedia is not a form of social media whereby persons or organisations can create a bio or profile about themselves.

If you feel that your band could pass the notability requirements (see WP:GNG and WP:NMUSIC), you could ask that an article be created at Wikipedia:Requested articles but you would have to be patient. Good luck. Eagleash (talk) 22:21, 17 August 2017 (UTC)

When is a newpaper statement considered "not factual not supported"?

Recently attempted to edit the article Unite the Right Rally with information from the New York Times. That article can be found here: [6] Specifically, I was trying to add information that supports the contention that there were individuals who participated in the march who were neither Nazis nor white supremacists. The NYT article cites the case of a woman who doesn't fit the "Nazi/white supremacist" narrative, stating that she drove all night with a conservative group that opposed the planned removal of a statue of the Confederate general Robert E. Lee (NYT statement, not a direct quote from the woman). An experienced user blocked my attempt to add that information to the article stating that my efforts to include information about march participants who were neither Nazis nor white supremacists was "a blatant attempt to underplay the radical-right nature of the crowd" and not factual. It's not supported... Another user agreed, stating that the NYT article, even when it was making statements as fact (not as a direct quote from the conservative marcher) was nonetheless expressing the woman's voice, which can't (in turn) be used as a factual statement using Wikipedia's voice. So... is that right? If the information printed in the NYT article is derived from a reporter's research and interview with a participant, and not the result of a direct observation made by the reporter, is it simply an extension ("voice") of the original source, and unusable as direct statement of fact?

Assuming you're correct that the LAPD said that on the news, you've misunderstood what they meant. They have arrested at least one conspiracy theorist who went into an innocent pizza place with a gun. No police department has found any reason to believe in the conspiracy theory, however.

Your claim that a theory is just a fact untill proven true or false is totally ignorant and borderline trolling.

Your claim that the Pizzagate conspiracy theory is proven true is a sign that you're getting your "news" from sites that are designed to troll their audiences for increased ad revenue. Ian.thomson (talk) 12:59, 18 August 2017 (UTC)
