Question from Hrspks (08:46, 4 June 2024)
Hello! I started on Wikipedia because I noticed a couple of articles missing from the Hungarian site, that I wanted to translate. I also see many opportunities for the opposite, there is a lot of information about Hungary and it's culture that is not translated to English. I would really like to translate some of these, but I do not yet have permissions to add translations to English Wikipedia.
What are the steps for getting there? I did start making edits adding information to English Wikipedia where I can, but I don't understand the process that well. --Hrspks (talk) 08:46, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Hrspks: hi! I'd suggest making more minor edits first, to get somewhat acquainted with how editing works around here. You could also expand Hungary-related articles we have without doing a direct translation; I think this would help you understand the article-writing process better, which is a good thing to understand before doing translations of articles from other languages.
- Please let me know if there's something specific you'd like help with. Elli (talk | contribs) 04:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Template editing query
Hello -- with your template editing hat on, I wonder if you could take a look at Template talk:Infobox poem#Oral poetry? I think similar features already exist in e.g. Template:Infobox military person, but I'm not sure I'm able (both permissions-wise and technically) to replicate them here. Would be a great help with the Homeric Hymns article, and other ancient poems of similar authorship. UndercoverClassicist T·C 10:02, 1 June 2024 (UTC)

How to be an Admin
How do I become an admin? Chris denny 4840 (talk) 10:54, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- (talk page watcher) @Chris denny 4840: Edit quietly, be polite, talk only when spoken to, chew your food with your mouth closed, and then come back and ask in five years. It's a very long-term process. Happy editing! ——Serial Number 54129 16:45, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Serial Number 54129 Thanks for the information! Chris denny 4840 (talk) 06:56, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

FYI this didn't technically qualify for F1 as F1 requires the file be in the same file format. No reason you should have known that as a new admin, really, and no point in undeleting since it will just get deleted as F5 in a week if you do, but note for the future. * Pppery * it has begun... 17:33, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

What is the deal with this article? It was deleted, but then re-created? How similar are the two versions? Bgsu98 (Talk) 02:35, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Bgsu98: it was deleted back in 2015; that article had no inline references (and many of the references in the current article are from after 2015). So it isn't "substantially identical" to the deleted version. Elli (talk | contribs) 02:39, 9 June 2024 (UTC)

Congrats from me too! And a question. I'm curious whether the new, trial, RfA process played any role in your decision to be an RfA candidate at this time? And did you feel that it did anything to improve, or worsen, your experience during the process? Thanks. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:23, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Tryptofish: yeah, for a few reasons: I felt like the new system would be a bit less scary, and also I wanted to run as it looked like the trial was gonna get prematurely scuttled due to the few unsuccessful RfAs that took place on it (so I wanted another testcase that was a bit more likely to succeed). As for my thoughts on how it went... some good, some bad. I liked the ability to answer questions and concerns without worrying about a flood of opposes due to my delay in getting to them... but it felt like the discussion-only period went on a bit too long. Elli (talk | contribs) 23:29, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks so much! That's very informative. I'm going to refer to this at the page where the trial is being discussed, because I think a lot of other editors will be interested as well. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:32, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from GdLazr (22:12, 14 June 2024)
Hi,
I'd a dev at Lazr.io and I was currently thinking of creating a page about our company in Wikipedia.
I already know that it needs to be FACTUAL, no promo. Is there anything else special to take into consideration to make it live?
Thanks! --GdLazr (talk) 22:12, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- @GdLazr: hi. It's strongly discouraged for you to make a page for your company at all, as you have an inherent conflict of interest. If you do make such an article, you would need sufficient reliable sources to meet WP:CORPDEPTH, a pretty high bar. Elli (talk | contribs) 22:16, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- ok I see. Only very big companies can afford a place on Wikipedia. Thanks! GdLazr (talk) 22:25, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- Is it the same principle if I write an article about a software? An online web application specialized for the transportation industry? Even though it will be FACTURAL without promo? GdLazr (talk) 22:27, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- @GdLazr: it's not about company size, and pages do not cost anything. However, we have high notability standards for companies and products because otherwise we would have articles on tons of completely non-remarkable companies which would be a nightmare to maintain and make Wikipedia pretty much just an advertising platform. Elli (talk | contribs) 22:28, 14 June 2024 (UTC)
- ok I understand. You need to filter them out and that's a good thing because that's what make Wikipedia a reliable source of infos. Thanks!
- But for a real live product on the net, with real clients and real partners, well established. Would it require as much as a Buiness? I mean, Studies, etc.? GdLazr (talk) 22:33, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Tabeinai (09:19, 17 June 2024)
Hi Ellie, We are a mindfulness brand who is going to launch the business soon. We want to create a page on wikipedia explaining brand ethos and philosophy and most importantly the meaning of its name "Tabeinai" which stems from "Take a breath" and "einai" to be. We are not sure if that is within the listing guidelines of wikipedia --Tabeinai (talk) 09:19, 17 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Tabeinai: hi and thanks for reaching out. I recommend not doing so as you have a conflict of interest. However, the guideline to check is going to be WP:NCORP, which in practice is a pretty high bar. Elli (talk | contribs) 23:59, 17 June 2024 (UTC)

Question from Missalex420 (08:48, 7 July 2024)
Hi mentor! lol Today I came across a page that had information that wasn’t correct. It was on the “excess mortality” page and someone referenced an article on a study about the Covid vaccine and excess mortality. The article said there wasn’t a link between the two but whoever wrote on wiki and referenced the article said the study did say there was a link. So I edited the whole thing to say the correct thing but the sentence after it also said somewhat the same kind of stuff. That “German researchers have found a link between the Covid vaccine and excess mortality” but that didn’t have any kind of cited reference. I guess my question in all of this is, I think I saw there’s a way to hi-light certain parts of a page you might find “questionable” to go under review by other people? I don’t know how to do that first off and would that be the right thing to do for the sentence about the “German researchers” with no reference? Instead of just deleting it? If not what would be the right thing to do? I love Wikipedia, been using it for years now and been off and on doing some simple editing (still learning how to do it as you can tell) but when I see misinformation stuff like this it just drives me nuts lol. I also want to edit correctly since I really love wiki! Sorry for my super long msg :) --Missalex420 (talk) 08:48, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Missalex420: hi; thanks for reaching out. You can tag questionable claims with {{dubious}} if you don't feel comfortable with removing them -- but if something is clearly not in line with the sources cited, you should just remove it from the article.

Question from Roundwave54 (03:33, 10 July 2024)
Hi Elli, I hope you are doing well.
I'm looking to set up a page about a UK company, Six Ticks Limited (https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/08163992).
The company has recently released a major development in the Blockchain industry, which is showcased here so far: https://www.newbusiness.co.uk/articles/trainingeducation/innovative-technology-removes-transaction-fees-while-offering-robust-secu
Other sources of information that are not from the company website are: https://www.uknewsgroup.co.uk/exclusive-national-hotels-contract-for-six-ticks/ https://www.shropshirebiz.com/five-minutes-with/five-minutes-with-stephanie-henson https://www.severnbusinessnetwork.co.uk/member/profile/six-ticks-limited/ https://www.sme-news.co.uk/winners/six-ticks-ltd/
I'm not sure if these meet the notability criteria or not. Could you please provide some guidance?
Many thanks, Ian --Roundwave54 (talk) 03:33, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Roundwave54: unfortunately I don't think those sources allow that company to meet the notability guidelines. WP:CORPDEPTH is pretty strict and that isn't really established here, nor are all those sources both reliable and independent. Elli (talk | contribs) 02:38, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Elli,
- Thank you for getting back to me.
- I understand your points. The press release speaks about quite a significant development in blockchain, validated by Aston University. I think this needs to be on Wikipedia somewhere, so would it be better looking at something like Blockchain itself, rather than a company page?

Hi Elli I want to create a wikipedia article about myself. --Meedhya (talk) 19:23, 13 July 2024 (UTC)
- (Talk page stalker) Making an autobiograhy is strongly discouraged. Do you think you are notable, and have many sources about yourself? — 48JCL 12:28, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
Question from Troy Brewer Ministries on User:Troy Brewer Ministries (21:04, 17 July 2024)
Does the article I am working on auto save? I only have the option to publish my page and I am still working on it. --Troy Brewer Ministries (talk) 21:04, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
Out of curiosity
Is your username pronounced like "Eli", "Ellie", or something else? Cheers, Queen of Hearts talk 04:12, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
- @Queen of Hearts: second option. Ellie seemed harder to usurp. Elli (talk | contribs) 04:31, 19 July 2024 (UTC)
