New to Wikipedia

Hello,

I am new to Wikipedia and so I am not familiar with methods of communicating with other Users, however, I thought I would inform you that you edited the page on Robert David Redmile to say that "Redmile is married to Marina Redmile (née Grandinetti). They have two daughters, Amanda and Alyssa Redmile."

This is untrue, and if you had read the article you would have known that it is his brother who is married to Marina.

Anyways, I will be undo-ing that and will be adding proper citations over time. For the time being, is there anyway I may "hide" the Wikipedia page until it is finished?

Thank you.

Spicybuns (talk) 07:04, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

If you check the edit history, you will see that I did not add that material, I just moved it to a different place in the article. References are always good, but you should also note that Wikipedia articles are never "finished" and are always subject to editing by anyone, provided that they comply with policies and guidelines.--ukexpat (talk) 16:44, 26 February 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of User:S.legrand/Max Legrand

A tag has been placed on your user page, User:S.legrand/Max Legrand, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be blatant advertising which only promotes or publicises a company, product, group or service, and which is a violation of our policies regarding acceptable use of user pages; user pages are intended for active editors of Wikipedia to communicate with one another as part of the process of creating encyclopedic content, and should not be mistaken for free webhosting resources. Please read the guidelines on spam, the guidelines on user pages, and, especially, our FAQ for Organizations.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator. Legacypac (talk) 04:45, 23 March 2016 (UTC)

Help Project newsletter : Issue 6

The Help Project Newsletter	Issue VI - April 2013
Open Help Conference The Open Help Conference will be taking place June 15-19 in Cincinnati Ohio, USA. The conference includes two days of presentations and open discussions, followed by team "sprints" - collaborative efforts to write and improve documentation. It has been suggested to send a team from Wikipedia/Wikimedia: to share our own knowledge about help, learn from others in the open source community working on similar problems, and to carry out a sprint to improve some aspect of Wikipedia's help. There may be support available for volunteers to attend from the Participation Support program (and your editor is certainly hoping to be there!) Please join the discussion in Meta's IdeaLab if you're interested, and/or have suggestions about what we could work on.	Other news The Article Feedback Tool (v5) has now been changed to be opt-in for all pages. It can be enabled for specific pages by adding Category:Article Feedback 5 to them. There are also a number of new features. It has been proposed to merge the questions forum of the New contributors' help page into the Teahouse. Discussion is taking place here. The help menu at Help:Contents/Browse and its subpages have been largely cleaned up. User:Moxy has created a descriptive help directory. A project on Video and Interactive Tutorials has begun, supported by a Wikimedia Foundation grant. Suggestions for subjects are invited on the talk page.
If you don't wish to receive this newsletter on your talk page in future then just edit the participants page and add "no newsletter" next to your name. Suggestions for future issues are welcome at Wikipedia:Help Project/Newsletter. the wub "?!" 16:22, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up. Although Chuck Pierce is almost certainly qualified under notability, I agree that the article doesn't reflect this. I'm not going to have a lot of time to edit in the next month, but will work on improving the article as I have time. Thanks again. Waitak (talk)

Hello, There are more references to be placed on the article, Salvatory L Mosha. I believe the subject was a public figure and instrumental.

A barnstar for you!

John Young (architect): Thanks

Hello. Thank you for the expert clean up of my first article on English Wiki. It looks much better. One concern I have is that I undertook to mention London Metropolitan Archives with the image when they granted me permission to reproduce it on Wikipedia, as they hold it in their collection. I left a message to that effect on one of the help pages. I have other images to add, slowly, as I have to learn to upload thumbs onto WikiCommons. Best wishes, --Po Kadzieli (talk) 11:54, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Glad to be of help. It is our usual practice to put image credits on the image information page, rather than in the article. Hope that helps.--ukexpat (talk) 15:18, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Audio files

Hello,

I just submitted my first article for review. (Exciting!)

I would like to add to my article links to two audio files that contain interviews with people who are experts on the subject. The interviews are original (by me). I save the recorded interviews as .wav files and tried to upload them, but got an error message that they weren't in the right format.

I've tried to understand what audio files are acceptable and how to upload them, but apparently am not understanding the whole process.

I guess first I need to know if it's acceptable to link to audio files that contain things like interviews. (Each interview is about 5 mins. in length.) I'm happy to make both interviews public and useable by others (common).

If it is acceptable, how can I accomplish this task?

Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by R.K. Elliott (talk • contribs) 22:32, 30 March 2016 (UTC) R.K. Elliott (talk) 22:34, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

For licensing reasons the only audio format acceptable for use on Wikipedia is the OGG format. In any event, such files would not be deemed reliable sources unless they have been published or broadcast by a third party. Take a look at WP:RS for what constitutes a reliable source for Wikipedia purposes. If you need further help, please ask at the Tea House.--ukexpat (talk) 23:18, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
