Where can i apply for a job?

I suspect, based on your question, that you found one of our over 6 million articles and thought we were affiliated in some way with that subject. Please note that you are at Wikipedia, the free online encyclopedia that anyone can edit, and this page is for asking questions related to using or contributing to Wikipedia itself. Thus, we have no special knowledge about the subject of your question. You can, however, search our vast catalogue of articles by typing a subject into the search field on the upper right side of your screen. If you cannot find what you are looking for, we have a reference desk, divided into various subject areas, where asking knowledge questions is welcome. Best of luck.

Copying from Wikipedia?

Hello there everyone, I just had a simple question. I just today noticed a commercial product(software) that had a description that seemed vaugely familiar, so I pulled up the wikipedia page (Which has been around much longer, as this just came out today.) and it was copied verbatim. Just wondering, since someone is using the description straight from here, is that legal? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rpearson299 (talk • contribs) 06:54, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The web site should have included an acknowledgement that the text came from Wikipedia; see WP:REUSE. -- John of Reading (talk) 07:47, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The other explanation is that the Wikipedia page is a copyright violation of another page. What was the product? Astronaut (talk) 10:06, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The Norfolk Southern wikipedia page is copied as a description for a product on Steam. It says "About the game" and underneath just has the text from the Wiki page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.252.87.71 (talk) 21:39, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Do you mean Norfolk Southern Railway and http://store.steampowered.com/app/24051/? The latter appears to have copied from the former, probably from an earlier version since there are small changes. It's only part of a paragraph. I would ignore it. There are websites copying the entire English Wikipedia without giving credit. See Wikipedia:Mirrors and forks, but I wouldn't list a site there for a partial paragraph. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:57, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Removal of help desk like entries on talk pages

The entry by 41.138.1.219 on the talk page for Nokia N95 is clearly off-topic. What should be done about it? Delete? Archive?

The guideline states "talk pages exist for the purpose of discussing how to improve articles. Talk pages are not mere general discussion pages about the subject of the article, nor are they a helpdesk for obtaining instructions or technical assistance." and "Material unsuitable for talk pages may be subject to removal per the talk page guidelines.", but I am not sure what to actually do in this case. --Mortense (talk) 09:31, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

I left a note stating the purpose of the talk page and suggesting contacting Nokia. Many contributors simply delete posts like this on sight. You might want to delete the section after a day or two to keep the talk page tidy, after it's likely the IP has seen the response. Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 10:20, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Add an article in a new language to a topic that exists

Hello!

I want to write an article in Hebrew about Gender Mainstreaming - a topic that already exists in a few languages, but not in Hebrew. How can this be done?

Thank you, Barak Pick, Israel —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.64.33.59 (talk) 09:39, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

You could go to Hebrew Wikipedia, and create it there. DARTH SIDIOUS 2 ^(Contact) 09:43, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

But how? Can you go over the steps on how to do this? Thank you, Barak —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.64.33.59 (talk) 21:23, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

It will probably be easiest to start with an existing article and translate. See Wikipedia:Translation for translation from another language to English. The corresponding page for Hebrew is apparently he:ויקיפדיה:תרגום which I found under "Languages" to the left of Wikipedia:Translation (I don't know Hebrew). Their equivalent of this help desk should be he:ויקיפדיה:דלפק_ייעוץ. Wikipedia:Your first article and the Hebrew version he:ויקיפדיה:איך_ליצור_דף_חדש may also be helpful. Note that each Wikipedia language can set up their own rules and guidelines, and they have their own discussion pages. I don't know which differences there are between the English Wikipedia and Hebrew Wikipedia. PrimeHunter (talk) 23:42, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Jimmy Wales appeal can not open

Respected Coligueas, this morning i was reading Wikipedia and "A personal appeal" banner opens on top of page. Yes, i clicked on it and it opens on DUTCH language. I am in Rotterdam at the moment, but THERE is NO WAY i could read this on English. So i am not alone. EVERYBODY in Holland who are strangers and do not speak Dutch are having this page what is a HUGE MISTAKE. I clicked an English title. I should get an English answer.

Tommorow i will be in Polland and than i shold get Polish page??? And next week i will be in France... Realy funny mistake from somebody who does not have a real clue.

With respect, Wiki user. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.246.56.3 (talk) 09:40, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Have you tried opening the appeal on English Wikipedia, or the Dutch one? I am in Finland at the moment, and I see the appeal and all other related pages in English, even if I am not logged in. DARTH SIDIOUS 2 ^(Contact) 09:50, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The initial banner is in English, but I have the same problem (and same country). Even on the English Wikipedia, the appeal opens in the dutch language version, probably because my ISP geolocates to the Netherlands. It wouldn't matter so much if there were a set of interwiki links provided, but why is the geo detection even there? If I read dutch, I would be using the nl.wikipedia, so why not link the appeal from Jimbo in dutch on the dutch language site and link the appeal in english from the english language site, rather than trying to second guess visitors? Astronaut (talk) 10:02, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The system figures out where you are located, and then serves a page for that location based upon location first, then the language of the wiki you're coming from. Unfortunately, if the Dutch chapter hasn't set up an English language page, you get the Dutch language page. I'll point them to this for their information.  :) Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 21:36, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

For information, this page has links to the appeal in many languages. In English you can read pages for: Australia, Israel, United Kingdom, United States, and Others. Astronaut (talk) 01:11, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Hatnote to section of another article

I sometimes see a hatnote like "For the other page, see target" placed at the top of an article. These usually use a template like {{for}} (or one of the many other templates mentioned in the documentation). What is the best template to use if the target is just a sub-section of an article rather then the other article itself? Astronaut (talk) 09:56, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

I see section linking doesn't work with {{for}} and related templates, as you need to pipe the link, and the template interprets the pipe character as a new argument. You could just use the generic {{dablink}} template like this:

{{dablink|For the other page, see [[Taget#section|Section]]}}

which produces:

For the other page, see Section

Adrian J. Hunter^{(talk•contribs)} 10:32, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

I like hatnotes to reveal the target page without using pipes so a visible section link is OK by me as in {{For|the other page|Target#Section}}:

For the other page, see Target § Section.

I don't know whether there is a guideline about this. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:50, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Mmm, I see what you mean, though I doubt more than a few percent of readers would understand the hash symbol. Maybe make it explicit, as in the following?

{{dablink|For the other page, see [[Target#Sectionname|Target, section Sectionname]]}}

which produces

For the other page, see Target, section Sectionname

Hod do I find all article names containing a particular word?

All pages with prefix allows me to find pages whose name begin with a certain word. However, I want to find all pages whose name contain the word "repertory", whether an article, category, etc, and no matter where that word falls in the name. How can I do that? -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 12:49, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

In answer to my own question that I found at Wikipedia talk:Special:PrefixIndex, for advanced pagenames searches use the grep tool. -- Uzma Gamal (talk) 13:00, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

You don't need grep for this. Search "Everything" (meaning all namespaces) for intitle:repertory. PrimeHunter (talk) 13:32, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

The article has been nominated for deletion. More important, someone needs to look at the editor who created the article and the other contributions he has made. Many of the articles he created are either spurious or at least wholly unsourced.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:14, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

No recognition whatsoever of donation given

Having noticed the appeal yesterday when looking for information I made a very small (yet significant in my circumstances) donation of a few pounds. Most charities do you the courtesy or at least sending an automatic thank you email for any donation. In this case I don't remember if my email was required so maybe you didn't have this, but it would be nice if the donation was at least acknowledge by way of your IP address being recognised and the request for a donation displayed on every page being removed, simple to express courtesy for this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.132.7.98 (talk) 17:23, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

That's obviously not a good thing. Based on the fact that you reference giving pounds, I'm betting that you gave to WM-UK, so I'll point one of their folks here. Philippe Beaudette, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 21:07, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm not with WM-UK, but I'll respond as best as I can! Firstly, thank you for your donation - all donations are valued, no matter how big or how small. I'd guess that you didn't receive an email acknowledgement for the reason you gave - you probably didn't give your email address. As to removing the 'please donate' banner, as IP addresses can change, the banner would remain - it may be an annoyance for you, but we have no way of knowing if the IP has been re-assigned or not, and some IPs are re-assigned every few minutes! If you register an account, I believe there is an option in my preferences to hide the banner -- PhantomSteve.alt/talk\^{[alternate account of Phantomsteve]} 00:39, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Roller-Bot

Hi my submission from 2006 has been deleted but it has not shown up in my deletion log. I use my wikipedia citation for my portfolio, and have presented professional papers on the subject to Physics Teachers in the St. Louis Area. My work and the name date to 1999, having the earliest use of the Roller-Bot name. Any ideas on where my article went? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pldtech (talk • contribs) 19:17, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

It was deleted on October 10, 2010. See here.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:33, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

(e/c) The deletion log requires the exact name in all particulars or it will fail. The entry is here. You may be able to get this undeleted at WP:UND since it was deleted through the proposed deletion process, but the article contained no third party, independent reliable source showing significant coverage of the topic, and so even if undeleted, it is not unlikely it will be deleted again as not notable, through the more formal deletion process at articles for deletion. So the question is, have reliable published sources that are independent from you written about the robot in any detail? If so, can you provide citations for them?--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 19:39, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Can I Use this Picture?

I'm writing an article about Luther Kelly, and I have found a picture of him taken in 1865, during the Civil War. It is my understanding that works published before 1923 are fair game, but unfortunately, I don't think this was published until 1973. Does the fact that it was taken almost 150 years ago count for anything? Sir Nils (talk) 21:57, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

You could ask your question at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions‎. However, the copyright of a picture belongs to the person who took the picture (unless transferred or licensed to someone else). If you mean that the picture wasn't published in the sense that it appears in a book that came out in 1973, that doesn't mean the copyright owner of the book somehow gains copyright of a picture that was already in the public domain.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:04, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

Rubstones (Wellington boots)

A new section has been created in the Wellington boots article on "Rubstones", which are described as a cut-down rubber boot modelled after Blundstones. My Google-fu is failing me; I can't find a single use of the word "Rubstones" referring to any type of rubber boot. Should this section be deleted from the article, or is someone else able to source a cite that this is a commonly-used term/modification? Thanks Eliahna (talk) 23:45, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

An IP recently added the section here. You could ask the IP, although the IP's Talk page has pretty much nothing but warnings. You could also simply remove it as unsourced (although not much in the article is sourced). Finally, you could raise it on the Talk page.--Bbb23 (talk) 23:56, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

You attempted, although not quite successfully, to insert a reference to your own myspace page. I've removed it as it has nothing to do with the article. Based on the information in the article, Pillado is not notable enough to include on Wikipedia. He may be an admirable person, but that isn't enough. I don't think there's much you can do to save it.--Bbb23 (talk) 00:08, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Why does Rotten Tomatoes always in the lead instead of Metacritic?

In nearly every movie article here, the "Reception" section takes about the movie's Rotten Tomatoes rating, and then might go on to talk about its Metacritic rating. Never does the Metacritic score get mentioned before the Tomatometer score. Why is this? —C Teng^(talk) 00:40, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Because of the Wikipedia policy/guideline/essay/failed proposal that says that review sites are always mentioned in reverse alphabetical order. No, that can't be right. More seriously, maybe because Rotten Tomatoes was started before Metacritic or because RT is better known? Just a guess. You could always reverse the trend. :-) --Bbb23 (talk) 00:46, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I'd be willing to bet that if I reversed the transition, Metacritic would start getting a lot more hits. —C Teng^(talk) 00:53, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:WikiProject Film which is where Wikipedia's film buffs decide the style guidelines for these particular articles. Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Archive index lists a large number of discussion topics. Maybe you can find clues from past discussions. For example, a Ctrl-F search on that page for "tomato" finds:

• Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Film/Archive 22#Reviews from Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic

Maybe that will get you started to find what you want to know, or help you track down other Wikipedia editors who may know something about this. Or you could start a new discussion topic there, with a better chance of finding Wikipedia editors who specialize in film articles. --Teratornis (talk) 00:57, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

(e/c with above 3 posts) I'll hazard an educated guess: Rotten Tomatoes' scores might be seen as more valid. Metacritic weights their scores towards "high profile" reviewers (i.e., their reviews count more when determining their scores). Rotten Tomatoes' score is a straight percentage of good reviews; although it too separates out the "top critics", they still factor equally with the low-profile reviewers into the overall score. Perhaps those at WikiProject Film can answer this question more thoroughly. Xenon54 (talk) 01:00, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Putting my tongue out of my cheek, my guess is there's no reason why RT is discussed before MC - it just is. More important, why does it matter if both are mentioned?--Bbb23 (talk) 01:04, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

It doesn't, really, I'm just wondering why. Also, it's common for Metacritic scores not to be mentioned. —C Teng^(talk) 01:10, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

For those articles that mention RT but not MC, if the MC info is relevant, I'd add it.--Bbb23 (talk) 16:43, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Huh? Any registered user can create an article at Evidence of Revision but nobody has. See Wikipedia:Your first article if you consider making the article yourself. Note however that if an article is unsourced or doesn't satisfy Wikipedia:Notability then it may be deleted. Then you can start throwing wild censorship accusations around.

Ohh, I just found a tiny suggested article at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Evidence of Revision (Documentary). It was declined. So Wikipedia doesn't want an unsourced two-line article? I guess that will be sufficient evidence of censorship for some. PrimeHunter (talk) 03:10, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Getting corrections acknowledged

The WIKI on Tom Logan (Director) has several notes at the top which have all been addressed by myself, Mr. Logan, and others and yet the error notes are still there.

There is no specific process: anybody may remove them if they think that they no longer apply (but should explain why they are doing so in the edit summary. However, Tom Logan (director) is certainly not ready to have them removed at present. The main problem (Which is not tagged, as it happens) is that there is not one single inline reference to a reliable source (note that iMDB is not regarded as a reliable source, except for very basic factual information, and a person's own website is not regarded as an independent source).

Other issues that remain are the number of peacock words in it (such as "top" and "prestigious"), which even if it no longer reads like an ad, still make it scarcely neutral. It is also still an orphan, in that not one single other Wikipedia article links to it (some User pages do, but they don't count.).

Fix these issues, and you are welcome to remove the tag.

Incidentally, Tom Logan (director) is not a wiki. Wikipedia is a wiki, one of thousands. That is a Wikipedia article. --ColinFine (talk) 16:59, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

How do I find sheet free sheet music in Wikipedia/ Wikimedia? There have to be a number of songs, especially older ones, where the sheet music is in the public domain. I did find a sheet music for a song somewhere in Wikimedia. But I can no longer find them.

Even stranger, yesterday, when I looked up some old songs on Wikipedia, the sheet music was right there on the wikipedia page in a PNG image on the right of the page. When I go back there today, the images are no longer there. An example is Yankee Doodle Dandy

64.252.209.77 (talk) 17:07, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I see a page of sheet music at Yankee Doodle. Do you? Public domain images will probably be at Wikimedia Commons; you could explore the files and sub-categories of the Commons sheet music category, or visit the Commons Main Page and use the "Search" box there. -- John of Reading (talk) 17:46, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Template for marking misplaced content

As an example, I think some of the content on this talk page should not be there and perhaps some content is missing (deleted). I am not sure how to characterise it, but it is somewhat complicated to untangle (for instance there are some deletions by Raniecutiefaye). Is there some template that can be added to such a page to draw the right kind of attention to it (such that sufficiently experienced Wikipedia users can handle it)? --Mortense (talk) 17:48, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I've removed most of it as nonsense. As for the template, there are probably a few you could use. {{Help me}} might work. TNXMan 17:52, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Yes, at a second look, we can probably live without the previously deleted content contributed by Taku, mav, and Stevey7788 (it was just commentary). It was not a good example, I realise now. --Mortense (talk) 19:28, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Article name change and status of entry

I've created an entry, but I can't find a way to change the entry name from "Enter_your_new_article_name_here" to the actual article name; I read the Wiki pages on Moving, etc., but don't have the option to do that yet since I am a new user. I am also unclear on if the page I created is actually submitted for review or still in a draft state that only I can see.

Thanks for any help!

Chase Patrick (talk) 20:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

I see that you have now re-submitted your text at Wikipedia talk:Articles for creation/Richard Chase. This is another good way to submit content; be patient and someone will get round to reviewing it there.

When your article was at User:Chase Patrick/Enter your new article name here, it was a "user space draft". If it had stayed there, you could have requested feedback on it, either at this Help Desk or at Requests for feedback - see "So you made a user space draft". It could have been given a more appropriate name after being reviewed, as you saw at this help page. A user space draft is partly visible - anyone who knows that it is there will be able to read it, but it will not be included in the results of a standard search in the Wikipedia "Search" box, and will not be indexed by search engines such as Google. -- John of Reading (talk) 22:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

Underground bands

I've got a question concerning that. I've read the criteria for a band to be approved on Wikipedia (to be article-worth), and they're extremely oriented for popularity. A band's even supposed to have accomplished at least a Gold CD award and hit the charts of a mid-large country. However, many renowned underground bands, notably Black Metal, will never nor intend to accomplish this, and still they have articles on Wikipedia, no matter how underground. What is supposed to be done with those bands? Delete their articles? Or is there an understanding/exception for those bands who have underground media attention despite not being able to sell thousands of records? Thank you.--Magnvs.alex (talk) 20:45, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

The notability requirement for a band is expressed at WP:BAND. Twelve criteria are listed. The band has to meet "at least one" of the criteria, not all. The gold criterion you refer to is only one of the twelve.--Bbb23 (talk) 22:33, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

If you do see articles that do not meet any of the criteria, then you can either propose their deletion or start a deletion discussion about them. TNXMan 03:24, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

The most important criteria about a band is that they have been written about by reliable sources. There are bands which have not sold many records, but which were highly influential. Take a band like The Skatalites. They've never sold many records, but they almost singlehandedly invented a musical style (ska). Being popular is not one of the criteria for having an article at Wikipedia; popular bands will likely already meet the general notability guideline, but there are lots of lesser known bands which do too. --Jayron32 05:48, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Executive Director of organization featured in a Wikipedia article wants to learn more about how to use Wikipedia

Hello. Wikipedia is an amazing gift to the world! I have used Wikipedia for years, but have never actually edited a page on Wikipedia until tonight.

I am the Executive Director of Wildlands Restoration Volunteers. I realized that the article about our organization was quite out of date, and made some edits to bring it up to date. I would like to add more content, but want to make sure I follow your standards of conduct. I read through some of your tutorial information and understand that an article should not be promotional in nature. It should be factual. I get that.

Can I upload our organizational logo? Is that appropriate? Typical? I have only a cursury understanding of copywriting, so am not clear if it is appropriate to upload our logo. I have no problem with other people using our logo image freely as long as it associated with our organization.

Can I upload a few photographs of our volunteers in action as a way to visually depict our work?

From your FAQ it sounds like I need some sort of admin access to upload images, but it seemed so complicated, I couldn't figure out exactly how the process works.

Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you. Edself123 (talk) 06:44, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

For uploading images, you need to be "autoconfirmed". This happens automatically after 4 days and 10 edits. In order to upload an image, you'd go to Wikipedia:Upload (after being autoconfirmed). As far as fixing the article on your organization, we appreciate any help we can get, but please be aware that Wikipedia is very sensitive towards people using it as a means of promotion, which is forbidden. Please read Wikipedia:Conflict of interest and Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest and Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations for some general guidelines towards working with articles about organizations you are involved with. In general, it is best practice to use the article discussion page (select the "discussion" tab when you are viewing the article) to declare your connection to the company, and to make suggestions regarding how you would like to see the article fixed. Experienced editors can also help you work through any troubles, you can always ask for more help here at the help desk, or you can contact me directly at my user talk page, User talk:Jayron32. --Jayron32 06:49, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Wikipedia links in section titles

References do not belong in section titles, but what about internal (Wikipedia) links? Do they belong there? Example: article "WikiProject Electronics/Programs". --Mortense (talk) 10:08, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

See WP:HEAD. To avoid accessibility problems, headings should not normally contain links, especially where only part of a heading is linked. That is written in reference to the main article space though and, to my knowledge, doesn't necessarily also apply to WikiProjects though I can't think of why it wouldn't.

Account registration dates

I need a tool that reliably reports the date on which a given account was registered. Can anyone point me to one? Thanks, Skomorokh 10:08, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Not really an answer at second look, but this tool/URL will report when a given account did the first edit (presumably close in time to registration time). Your user name, Skomorokh, is used in this example: http://toolserver.org/~soxred93/count/index.php?name=Skomorokh&lang=en&wiki=wikipedia. I don't know whether it is reliable or not. --Mortense (talk) 10:19, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the reply, but I need the registration date (in my case for instance, the two are two months apart). Skomorokh 10:29, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Ah, great, thanks David. Do you know how it works for renamed accounts? user:Harej, renamed from user:Messedrocker has been around since at least 2006, but the log for those two names gives only the dates for User:Harej (usurped) and the vandal who registered Messedrocker after Harej abandoned it.

Why was I removed from writers' lists?

I'm a published mystery writer, and have added my name to various appropriate writers' lists, but subsequently my name has been deleted in most cases. Is this because there is no article about me? If I set up a user page, will that allow my name to stay? Apart from wanting to appear <g>, I feel it can't be right If a list contain only authors with articles, as it'll then be far from comprehensive. Delfinus (talk) 13:50, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

WP:NLIST is the standard for including entries on various "list of..." wikipedia entries. Essentially they are actually just directories of wikipedia pages only. Wikipedia is not a directory of everything, and there are some basic criteria for having an article about a person. User-pages are not articles, and are not acceptable as entries in list-ofs (again, we're an encyclopedia, not a directory of people's self-created homepages). Just "being published" only proves you're a writer, not that you're a notable one yet. DMacks (talk) 14:09, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

How to replace/update a image

How can I upload an updated copy of an image that is already included one or more articles —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sigurdur73 (talk • contribs) 14:10, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Double-click on the image to get to a page with a "File:" prefix, then there are two cases to consider:

1. If the file page says "This is a file from the Wikimedia Commons. Information from its description page there is shown below", click on the "description page" link to jump to the page at Commons. Part way down that page will be a link "Upload a new version of this file"
2. Otherwise the file is held at Wikipedia, and the first "File:" page should have a similar "Upload a new version" link. However, your account is too new to upload a new file in this case, because only confirmed users can upload here. To become a "confirmed" user you must have been registered for 4 days and have made 10 edits. If you can't think of any useful edits to make, I recommend the Lists of common misspellings. -- John of Reading (talk) 14:24, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Warnings about editing misuse

I've been using wikipedia via my blackberry for some time, and have today had a yellow bar come up on my search results screen with 'new messages'. I clicked on it, and it had the header User talk:93.186.31.238. It was a list of edits that had been made, and why people had undone them, along with a warning about not doing it again. That's not my IP and I haven't been on any of the pages listed, so why have I received this link? Have I used my phone somewhere where that IP is active? I tend to only use wifi at home, which is a secure network.

You may have been assigned a new IP, which had previously been used by someone vandalizing Wikipedia. If it wasn't you, then there's no need to worry. I would suggest registering an account, which has a lot of benefits, one of which is that you do not receive messages intended for others. TNXMan 19:24, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

(edit conflict) You say you received this message on a Blackberry—could you have been outside of your home using a public WiFi service when you received it? If you were, anyone with a WiFi-enabled device would be able to edit (and vandalise) Wikipedia, and you would be sent the message as the next person to visit Wikipedia. I can only echo what Tnx says above, I do recommend registering an account even if you do not wish to contribute to Wikipedia. Regards, wackywace 19:30, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Thank you - I just logged on via my laptop instead and did some googling and that IP seems to be a blackberry one that gets passed around, I assume via my mobile network.

Belfast

Hello,

I would like to talk about your Belfast, United kingdom article. You (at the top of the page) say that it is the 2nd biggest city in the Ireland, I feel that it would be much more useful to list it as the 15th most populous city in the Uk and not by land mass. You could even say what it is by population size in the British Isles or even in Northern Ireland and then list by UK. I feel that listing it as the 2nd most populous out of two countries it a big odd, but if you wan't to go back to before 1921 you can do that ;), thank-you for your time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 14wlondon (talk • contribs) 21:49, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

We tend to prefer more notable distinctions.

This is not a matter of 32-county thinking, just a matter of more important distinction vs. second-tier ranking. --Orange Mike | Talk 22:05, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

how are subjects in Wikipedia cross-referenced?

If I look up a term in Wikipedia and there are several articles on the term or something similar (ex. Beetle...I could have misspelled the band name or I could be looking for information on the vehicle or on the insect) I am redirected. How does Wikipedia know to redirect me? in other words, does a person index search terms or is it done through a computer program? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.242.194.211 (talk) 22:27, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

Redirect pages are created by people. The index used when Wikipedia searches within articles is generated automatically --ColinFine (talk) 22:51, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure which feature you refer to. At the top of Beetle is a hatnote saying:

This article is about the insect. For other uses, see Beetle (disambiguation).

Beetle (disambiguation) is a disambiguation page written by editors.

If you enter a term in the search field and there is a page or redirect completely matching (except for capitalization) what you entered then you are taken to that page. If there is no complete match then you get an automatically generated search results page. If you want the search results page in a case where a page match exists then you can select "containing..." at the bottom of the list below the search box. See more at Help:Searching.
