Main Page error report

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 18:47 on 14 June 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. (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.

General discussion

Nelson Mandela

Perhaps we could convert his news entry, moving it up in the list, to something like "The body of Nelson Mandela lay in state from 11–13 December at the Union Buildings in Pretoria and a state funeral will be held on 15 December 2013 in Qunu, South Africa." The goal here would be to establish a new record for an image, ousting the current, uh, incumbent. <grin>--Jim in Georgia Contribs Talk 22:41, 13 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Really. I mean, no offense, but we do need to move on with a new image. The rover would be a nice one to feature.JanderVK (talk) 20:10, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I don't think we have many options right now image-wise. Main page images must be free, and the only conceivable free images that I see among the current ITN blurbs would be a picture of the Moon or a picture of marijuana, neither of which would be very useful in my opinion (I don't believe we have any free images associated with the Chang'e 3 mission). If Peter O'Toole's death ends up being given a full blurb, a picture of him would be the most obvious solution. We don't normally add pictures for entries that are only listed in the RD section at the bottom. --Bongwarrior (talk) 20:48, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    • No real objection, although I'm not sure how confident we should be about the Public Domain claim. The copyright on the trailer may not have been renewed, but surely that is a derivative work based on the film (?).
Is there a photo of Nelson Mandela pictured with Fernando Lugo we could use? Formerip (talk) 11:29, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Non-English script

Today the lead DYK reads:

... that hōchōdō (庖丁道, the way of the cleaver) is a traditional Japanese culinary art form of filleting a fish or fowl without touching it with one's hands (demonstration pictured)?

Why was the non-English script so important to be presented on the main page? This after all in English Wikipedia, right? §§Dharmadhyaksha§§ {T/C} 04:19, 16 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
