*Spelling: Elizabeth Burchinal --> [[Elizabeth Burchenal]]. This article was renamed a couple of days ago to correct the spelling. [[User:Colonies Chris|Colonies Chris]] ([[User talk:Colonies Chris|talk]]) 12:13, 17 December 2013 (UTC) |

*'''Tamar Park''': This isn't quite right. The article is confusing on the subject. The link to [[Central Government Offices]] actually redirects to [[Former Central Government Offices]], which refers to a building in the Central District formerly used for that function. Tamar Park is the home of the [[Central Government Complex]], which contains several government functions including the [[Office of the Chief Executive]] and [[Legislative Council Complex]] and the current Central Government Offices, which are in the Main Block of the Central Government Complex - we don't have a separate article for that.

*The statement about Mady Hornig refers to a medical claim for which the sourcing fails [[WP:MEDRS]]. Given the state of the evidence (see [[Thimerosal controversy]]) I think it is highly unlikely that a valid medical source can be found; see also [[Talk:Animal_models_of_autism]]. I have added a contextualizing statement as a temporary fix, but this is absent in the hook, and the sourcing issue is still there. I'm not sure where I should put this/whether there is a procedure for me to follow, but I strongly recommend that the DYK be taken down.

Revision as of 15:16, 18 December 2013
 | Please submit error reports only for content that is currently or will imminently appear on the Main Page. For general discussion about the Main Page, kindly use its talk page. |
 | National variations of the English language have been extensively discussed previously:
|
To report an error in content currently or imminently on the Main Page, use the appropriate section below.
- Where is the error? An exact quotation of the text in question helps.
- Offer a correction if possible.
- References are helpful, especially when reporting an obscure factual or grammatical error.
- Time zones. The Main Page runs on Coordinated Universal Time (UTC, currently 21:33 on 14 October 2024) and is not adjusted to your local time zone.
- Can you resolve the problem yourself? If the error lies primarily in the content of an article linked from the Main Page, fix the problem there before reporting it here. Text on the Main Page generally defers to the articles with bolded links. Upcoming content on the Main Page is usually only protected from editing beginning 24 hours before its scheduled appearance. Before that period, you can be bold and fix any issues yourself.
- Do not use {{edit fully-protected}} on this page, which will not get a faster response. It is unnecessary, because this page is not protected, and causes display problems because this is not a talk page. (See the bottom of this revision for an example.)
- No chit-chat. Lengthy discussions should be moved to a suitable location elsewhere, such as the talk page of the relevant article or project.
- Respect other editors. Another user wrote the text you want changed, or reported an issue they see in something you wrote. Everyone's goal should be producing the best Main Page possible. The compressed time frame of the Main Page means sometimes action must be taken before there has been time for everyone to comment. Be civil to fellow users.
- Reports are removed when resolved. Once an error has been addressed or determined not to be an error, or the item has been rotated off the Main Page, the report will be removed from this page. Check the revision history for a record of any discussion or action taken; no archives are kept.
