anyone know how to fix the google result? it's kind of a problem

if you google wikipedia and scroll down to the result for this page, it shows up as PEE-Wikipedia.

i tried to find where in the wikitext the title was so i could fix it, but i'm not a programmer. if anyone could fix this, that would be great. IHaveAVest talk 19:57, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@IHaveAVest: Unfortunately this is something that is out of our control. You'll just have to wait for Google to fix it. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:01, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I wonder if Google is pulling the title tag from this html that shows pronunciation as Wiki-PEE-dia:
title="English pronunciation respelling">wik-ih-<span style="font-size:90%">PEE</span>-dee-ə</i></a>}} Pyrrho the Skipper (talk) 20:10, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The strange thing is that should be ignored like in every other article, and it's just the "PEE-" and not the "dee-ə" ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 20:16, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I hereby coin PEEGATE. Let the record show. Pyrrho the Skipper (talk) 20:17, 11 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I tried commenting out <i title="English pronunciation respelling">wik-ih-<span style="font-size:90%">PEE</span>-dee-ə</i> but it didn't work. I did send feedback on this to google, so hopefully they'll fix it. IHaveAVest talk 16:33, 13 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It seems to be fixed, sort of. It now says Article Talk - Wikipedia. IHaveAVest talk 00:14, 18 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Better than PEE. Pyrrho the Skipper (talk) 01:01, 19 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Editing protection

Can a talk page be semi-protected, or protected in any way? Cjjjkscratch (talk) 04:52, 27 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The section above was blatant advertising, as you suggested in a reply, so I deleted the section. Esowteric + Talk + Breadcrumbs 21:19, 6 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Stylised as WikipediA

Should the article note that Wikipedia, in its logo, is stylised as WikipediA? Xx78900 (talk) 13:37, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Good question, see Wikipedia logo. It won a 2001 logo contest. The Cunctator (the logo designer), does the uppercase 'A' have a backstory? Thanks. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:47, 13 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
It's not styled as "WikipediA" though, its styled as something more like WIKIPEDIA, with all the letters capitalized but the first and last simply larger. Aza24 (talk) 04:28, 14 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]
