There are various wrong information updated in this page, photograph of Mukhtar Ansari has also been removed. I m not able to edit them. How can I get access to edit this page. --Linuxroot0786 (talk) 00:31, 4 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there @Linuxroot0786. The page in question is Extended confirmed protected, meaning that only users with an account older than 30 days and edit count of >500 can edit the page. ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 23:58, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from GemmaTheLynx (10:07, 6 April 2024)[edit]

Hello! I'm new to Wikipedia and have a question. In a biography content page, would you need a citation for adding date of birth? Gem (Disturb me!) 10:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there @GemmaTheLynx, welcome to Wikipedia! Yes, in a biography of a person, the date of birth/death should be accompanied with a citation. Just like any other information that is likely to be challenged must have citation(s). ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 23:53, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Karry G (14:10, 12 April 2024)[edit]

Hi Raydann, nice to meet you. Can you help me with creating my page? This is my first attempt to make a "singer\dj" page actually, so some of my questions may sound stupid to you. Sorry for that))

Two things: 1) I can't add a photo to my page; 2) I don't know how to insert the Discography template onto my page... --Karry G (talk) 14:10, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there @Karry G! Nice to meet you too. Thank you for joining Wikipedia. Of course I can help you. Are you trying to add a picture in the infobox on your article? To do so, you need to first upload your picture to Wikimedia Commons then link the picture in the infobox. To address your second question, you can use this discography template: Template:Discography list. You can also refer to Help:My first article for an extensive guide on creating articles. Let me know if you need any further help. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 20:35, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

my bio keeps getting deleted but i see a whole lot of other artists bios on here.how can i go about putting up my bio and picture on her without getting deleted --Wesley Jusino (talk) 22:41, 14 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Wesley Jusino! Welcome to Wikipedia. Please see this extensive guide for creating Wikipedia articles: Help:My first article. Let me know if you need further help. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 20:25, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Al-Jami'a Al-'Arabiya Move[edit]

You've moved a page, but there was no comment on it with a statement " Needs more comments and votes!". So why did you move the page? Egeymi (talk) 17:31, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello @Egeymi, I proceeded with the move because "Needs more comments and votes!" was a relisting comment by SafariScribe, and after the relist, it has since been 9 days without any community input on the move. Per WP:RMNOMIN, if no one has objected to the RM, then a move is justified. However, if you want to contest my closure, I would be happy to undo the move and relist it again. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 17:38, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Moved page[edit]

Hello, the page for libertarian conservatism should not have been moved. There was no consensus for doing so in Talk; it was just a suggestion from one guy. The official term is libertarian conservatism, as certified by prominent scholars such as Andrew Heywood. Trakking (talk) 20:57, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello there @Trakking! Thank you for raising this concern. You are indeed right, there was no community consensus in this requested move, but neither was there any opposition. Since no one participated in this RM for about a month, I procedurally moved the page per WP:RMNOMIN, which states that "No minimum participation is required for requested moves. If no one has objected, go ahead and perform the move...". However, since it seems to me that you would like to oppose this move, I would be happy to undo it and relist it again. And then you can oppose the move on the talk page of the article. Let me know if you'd like me to relist it again. Thank you. ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 21:07, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You are correct. Yes, I would like the page to be relisted again. Thank you. Trakking (talk) 21:39, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bondi Junction stabbings[edit]

Hi Raydann

Please could you revisit or relist this discussion? WP:NCE is crystal clear that the year should be included unless "in historic perspective, the event is easily described without it". I don't see how the Bondi Junction stabbings, terrible as they are, remotely qualify for that excemption. In 10, 20, 30 years time people aren't going to particularly remember this. There are a lot of support !votes, but that's really a WP:LOCALCONSENSUS against guidelines, most of those votes don't reference the guideline that applies on this and maybe editors who aren't aware of the sitewide convention. Cheers — Amakuru (talk) 09:19, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there @Amakuru!
Yes I have revisited and relisted the discussion. While I personally have a neutral stance here, I think a relist would be beneficial to the discussion. The page was already moved back to the original name due to another reason. Thank you! ❯❯❯ Raydann ^(Talk) 16:38, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
