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 12:05 on 2 November 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.

In the description of the featured picture for Diwali, we should wikilink the mythical city Ayodhya (Ramayana) instead of the actual city Ayodhya. The reason is explained in the second paragraph of the article Ayodhya (Ramayana):

“ The historicity of this legendary city is of concern to the Ayodhya dispute. According to one theory, it is same as the present-day Ayodhya city. According to another theory, it is a fictional city, and the present-day Ayodhya (originally called Saketa) was renamed after it around the 4th or 5th century, during the Gupta period. ”

Michael Phelps?

Why is a news headline stating Michael Phelps has won and olympic gold medal? This is unfair as coverage was not given to Nicole Cooke winner of the ladies cycling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.108.184.1 (talk) 18:03, 13 August 2008 (UTC)

This is not an example of American bias. Phelps has made history- he has won more golds than anyone else.

No, I do not believe that anyone has made some sort of statistics on the yet. But there seems to be a Systemic bias of Wikipedia, so the best way is to help out and create more good articles on non-American topics that qualify for the main page. Cheers. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 15:10, 20 August 2008 (UTC)

Featured Sounds

The Featured Sound project is beginning to take off, and I think it's time to discuss an occasional appearance of sounds on the main page. I have talked with User:Howcheng off-wiki, and he agreed that integrating sounds into Picture of the Day (renaming it to "Media of the Day" in the process) - presuming there's consensus - would be fine.

This rename to "Media of the Day" would also make the occasional videos somewhat more appropriately titled.

There are several good reasons for this proposal: There is an awful lot of good, public domain music, speeches, and similar sound files out there, and sound is one of the things Wikipedia can do that traditional, print encyclopedias cannot. Also, sound can be very important for understanding: hearing samples of Beethoven's music will always be more informative than simply reading an article about his music, and hearing an identified recording of bird song helps people identify the birds around them.

As well, including them on the mainpage has benefits unique to itself: Many articles that, as a basic requirement for understanding, need sounds do not yet have any. (For instance, Music of India talks at length about the various styles of Indian music, many of which have their own sub-articles, but none have any samples of the styles discussed). By making it clear we think sounds are important, we encourage Wikipedians with talent for an instrument or for voice to record public-domain works for Wikipedia, thus improving our coverage.

Likewise, the exposure would make it far easier to get more high-quality material - going to a university symphony, for instance, with the promise of wide exposure on the main page of one of the top-rated websites for any of the recordings we feature would be a strong encouragement for them to assist us. With just a few university symponies, a few amateur opera companies, or any groups in that line providing us with free-licenced recordings, we could easily become the best online resource for free music.

As well, the exposure would increase traffic to the featured sound project, thus increasing the number of featured sounds that are available for the main page, hastening the time when Featured Sounds can stand on its own.

Thank you,

Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 16:47, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

• This sounds excellent. I think integrating featured sounds with pictures for 'today's featured media' (or perhaps today's featured medium'?) is a fantastic idea that is long overdue. Will consensus here be enough, or is the main discussion going elsewhere? J Milburn (talk) 17:03, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

En has already had a video on the main page has it not? I can't see sounds being a problem.Geni 18:50, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Good idea. To answer Geni, video is classified differently here v. Commons. They don't consider video eligible for featured pictures and don't have any featured sound program. So sometimes video runs on this site under the featured picture category. Durova^Charge! 19:49, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Just hijack WP:MOTD, this is a more worthy target. J Milburn (talk) 20:21, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

What's wrong with WP:TFM (Today's featured media)? Teemu08 (talk) 20:42, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Some possible problems: Media is too ambiguous. If I loosely define the word, it would swallow up all featured content except (possibly) topics. The queue for POTD is just over 200. Also, it adds mystery buttons to the main page. The main page redesign survey disagrees with the inclusion of today's featured sound.

I think the way to go about this is to get a featured content process started on Commons feeding into Media of the Day. MER-C 09:08, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

I disagree with the main page redesign survey's existence, you don't hear me crying... There is not (yet) any need to disagree with a 'today's featured sound'- all that is to happen is to have a featured sound instead of a featured picture once in a while, which makes a lot of sense as videos have been featured there for a while, and sounds are more like videos than pictures. J Milburn (talk) 11:01, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Featured sounds is on en-wiki, there is nothing comparable on Commons as of yet, except the completely dead Media of the Day project (it's on a one-year endless loop, and has been since shortly after its creation, near as I can tell). Commons would quite rightfully object to having the output of an en-wiki project on their front page.

It took months of work to build up Featured sounds here. I for one object to being told the reward for hard work on en-wiki is to be told to go away and do the work somewhere else instead. Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 21:49, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

And are you seriously telling me that a survey with 8 responses, without a single one of the people at featured sound even being notified that a discussion of putting featured sounds on the mainpage was ongoing, should be considered to settle the issue for all time, in perpetuity? Noone involved with Featured sounds was there to present any of the arguments in its favour. I'll go further: most of the comments show extreme ignorance of what is available in sounds. Thiirdly, if yopu're going to claim, based on a single comment, that featured soounds should be on commons, then I claim the single comment asking for them to be mixed in with featured pictures. Well, anyway, I've said my piece. Up tto others to decide on it now =) Shoemaker's Holiday (talk) 21:49, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Most of the survey participations seem to be concerned we don't have enough sounds, at least those who have bothered to explain why they opposed. From what I can tell, no one is disputing we don't have enough featured sounds at the current time, nor is anyone suggesting we make a today's featured sound at the current time. What people are suggesting here is that sounds be added to TFP perhaps with a rename. So the survey frankly speaking is completely irrelevant to what we are discussing here. Nil Einne (talk) 10:14, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

(OP) Sounds good. If video has successfully been incorporated into TFP in the past, then I'd support including sounds. Rename it TFM or MOTD or whatever. (motto-oftheday is daft, and deserves to be hijacked or hidden-away like the insane squirrel that it is)

As for the survey, the entire thing is basically irrelevant. Even the 60+ redesign-draft submitters hadn't bothered to participate. The whole redesign is a fiasco (as prophesied earlier). And yes, it was the randomized standalone featured-sounds-box, as found at Portal:Featured content/current, that the survey was legitimately objecting to adding to the Main page (because there are only 18 entries to randomize between). -- Quiddity 00:36, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

This link goes to an article on the outdoors, is that right? I had presumed 'bush cricket' was similar to 'bush league' in the USA, referring to minor league baseball, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.203.58.1 (talk) 20:22, 27 August 2008 (UTC)

e/c Bush cricket redirects to Tettigoniidae. And looking at the Bush disambiguation page doesn't have anything, and apparently the term isn't used much on Wikipedia.Spencer^T♦C 21:55, 27 August 2008 (UTC)
