Enzo Ferrari (automobile)

Would a template expert please take a look at the opening paragraph of this one. The various "auto" templates appear to be screwing up the formatting of the text that follows them, but I am stumped as to the solution. Thanks. – ukexpat (talk) 00:25, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I managed to get around this by substituting the various weight and measurement conversions, instead of a direct transclusion. Should work okay now. tempodivalse [☎] 00:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It does thanks. Any idea what the problem is with the transcluded templates? And no need to leave a talkback for me (but thanks anyway!) -- I am a help desk regular and have this page watchlisted. – ukexpat (talk) 00:53, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have no idea what caused the problem - obviously something in one of the templates is conflicting, but I can't imagine why that would be. (PS sorry for the talkback, I know you must have this page watchlisted, but it's already become something of a habit, so I did it without thinking.) tempodivalse [☎] 00:59, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yup it's a mystery so I have asked over at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Automobiles/Conventions. – ukexpat (talk) 01:12, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's as if the {{auto kg}}, etc templates force a new line and space. They seem to be mostly used in infoboxes, without ill effects, but sometimes break in body copy, e.g. in Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution#Evolution III. {{Convert}} might work a bit more smoothly in those cases. --AndrewHowse (talk) 01:32, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Im not new but how do I create?

I need some help creating some pages! Im not new but I don't know what to do! May anyone please help me! Im only eight years old and is in seconed grade. I'm only intrestid in making wikipedia pages! Can yo help? Thank you for your Cooperation! --Rhiannon (talk) 00:35, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Before creating an article, please search Wikipedia first to make sure that an article does not already exist on the subject. Please also review a few of our relevant policies and guidelines which all articles should comport with. As Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, articles must not contain original research, must be written from a neutral point of view, should cite to reliable sources which verify their content and must not contain unsourced, negative content about living people.

Articles must also demonstrate the notability of the subject. Please see our subject specific guidelines for people, bands and musicians, companies and organizations and web content and note that if you are closely associated with the subject, our conflict of interest guideline strongly recommends against you creating the article.

If you still think an article is appropriate, see Help:Starting a new page. You might also look at Wikipedia:Your first article and Wikipedia:How to write a great article for guidance, and please consider taking a tour through the Wikipedia:Tutorial so that you know how to properly format the article before creation. tempodivalse [☎] 00:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

References help

How can I create references that are the same under "reflist"? They are listed as the same "note" in the section for references. For example, check out the article Hulu. Reference #11 under the "References" section is shown like this:

Adding name to chronological list of names

I want to add a name to the list of Law Clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States. There is an edit box for each seat, but I can't figure out how to insert the name in the right chronological sequence. 02:56, 5 May 2009 (UTC)~~ —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wingate44 (talk • contribs)

You are referring to List of law clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States? Each of the "seat" sections is actually transcluded (fancy word for "automatically incorporated") from a separate article on that seat, see List of law clerks of the Supreme Court of the United States (Chief Justice), for example. So you have to edit those separate articles for the changes to appear in the main list. Be careful though, table coding can be confusing. – ukexpat (talk) 03:08, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's correct. And if you're not sure how to add it in the table, feel free to edit the talk page, requesting that another editor adds it. hmwith τ 14:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, I think what I want to do is put the information on the talk page and ask that another editor add it. However, I'm not sure where the talk page is. Is there on on the Law Clerk list? Or, do I locate an editor's page? Sorry for these very primitive questions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wingate44 (talk • contribs) 19:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Another option would be to post a message on the talk page of the US Courts and Judges Wikiproject at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject United States courts and judges. – ukexpat (talk) 20:10, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Date/time format

Dates and times have suddenly changed format and started to include extra information like "last Thursday (6 days ago)." Have I somehow altered my settings to get all this extra stuff, or is it new? If new, is there a way to opt out?

Moreover, the calculation isn't accurate: at 09:35 5 May (UTC+1) I am looking at an entry which reads "10:05 pm, 30 April 2009, (6 days ago)(UTC+1)" That is actually less than 5 days ago - 4 days 11 hours 30 minutes, to be exact. JohnCD (talk) 08:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It sounds like you have enabled "Change UTC-based times and dates, such as those used in signatures, to be relative to local time" under Gadgets at Special:Preferences. PrimeHunter (talk) 11:22, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, that was it, don't know how that happened. But for those who do use that facility, the elapsed-time calculation is still wrong. JohnCD (talk) 15:10, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Search engines usually take a few days to re-index Wikipedia. Give it a few days and the article should start to show in search results. TN X Man 13:08, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)Google and Yahoo are in control over the results of their search engines. We, as mere Wikipedia editors, cannot do much to influence these results. You may wish to read search engine optimization, a featured article on the subject. Hope this helped. Goodraise 13:15, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

But let's not forget that we are here to build an encyclopedia, not engage in a Google or Yahoo page rankings contest. Search result placement is a nice side effect of what we do, but it's not the be all and end all of why contribute here. – ukexpat (talk) 16:02, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How to read weekly CDF file with GrADS

Reclaiming an old and inactive account

Resolved

– ukexpat (talk) 16:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Greetings,

Upon trying to merge my accounts to a unified one, I found out I couldn't log in to my account here at enwp because of an (probably) old password. Seeing as the account Hallabro (talk · contribs) has no contributions, I was hoping it could either be removed (and later manually reinstated by me) or have the password changed by an administrator.

Have a great day! //Hallabro (contribs) from svwp, also known as 81.235.161.6 (talk) 13:24, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think you need to ask at Wikipedia:Changing username/SUL for a bureaucrat to help with this one. Bencherlite ^Talk 13:55, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You can request a new password by clicking "Email new password" on the log-in page. We do not delete accounts, and the bureaucrats won't do a rename due to the lack of contributions (if you cannot log-in to the old account, a rename couldn't be done anyway). Just create a new account & start editing! It's that simple. hmwith τ 14:33, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, wait, is this a SUL attempt at trying to basically usurp your own, old account? In that case, the situation may be different. hmwith τ 14:38, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it's SUL-related, so a name change won't suffice I guess. Placed a request at the SUL page. Thanks for the heads up! 81.235.161.6 (talk) 14:40, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion notice

Hi, I have just added a page to wikipedia regarding an Australian pro wrestler. The page is called "Brian Cannon aka Dingo, Thunder dingo, Dingo crocmaster. However, I just noticed that there's a notice that says "It is proposed that this article be deleted because of the following concern: no sources showing notability ". What does this mean, and how do I fix the problem?

ARCHONIAN LORE (talk) 13:42, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:Notability. E Wing (talk) 13:48, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest you read our info on biographies (which describes what articles about people should contain), as well as our info on reliable sources (which are used to support articles). TN X Man 14:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Brian Cannon needs a lot of work, most especially references. I suggest that you ask for userfication, where the article is moved to your userspace and you can polish it up until it is ready. I will do this at your request. ---— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk 14:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It's not difficult, but I feel I must ask where you would place the link. Is this something for your userpage or an article? I can't imagine why an article would need a link to a random article. Of course, I could be missing something? TN X Man 15:07, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How to get message alerts removed from article

Hello,

I am new to Wikipedia so sorry for the questions. I have spent a fair amount of time trying to find my answers on the site but I can't!

My company has a listing on the site -- Triple Point Technology.

I'm not sure how it was originally posted. There are two alerts at the top -- 'Orphan' and 'Advertisement.' In researching the rules around Wikipedia, I understand why the Triple Point article reads like an advertisement. There are several 3rd-party information sources that could be listed to rectify this.

My question is, what is the process for getting the warnings removed and how long does it take? Who has the 'authority' to get the warnings posted in the first place? (I told him I thought it was some sort of group consensus.) My boss wonders if it is a competitor... meaning, are we powerless to keep it from happening again? Jen Svensson (talk) 17:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ideally the person placing the tag would explain their concerns on the article's talk page. In this case, I see that did not happen. Best bet would be to make the changes you feel remove the Ad-like tone from the article, and open a discussion on the talk page. Be sure to read a few of the guidelines and policies that apply here, specifically the policies on Neutral Point Of View and Conflict of Interest which are two of the ones most applicable to that Ad-Like tag. Others include the Verifiability policy for information and claims, and the things Wikipedia is not supposed to be used for. If you make your changes and nobody will give any feedback, you may want to inquire at the Neutral Point Of View Noticeboard. You are sure to get some feedback there. Hope this helps! Arakunem^Talk 17:12, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(edit conflict)Basically, anyone has the authority to add or remove these kinds of notices, though editors who might have a conflict of interest – such as competitors or employees of the company – are discouraged from posting or removing them. The best way to have the notices removed is to rewrite the article to remove the promotional/advertising elements, and add relevant links to the Triple Point Technology article by adding two square brackets around the company's name (i.e. [[Triple Point Technology]]) where it appears in other articles. Your company, like any other company, has no power to control any aspect of this or any other article, but that does not mean you are not welcome to try to overcome the issues raised. There is no formal power structure determining what content appears in Wikipedia articles – we are still the encylopaedia anyone can edit. I will take a look at the article and see what can be done, and please feel free to ask if you have any other questions or ideas. Regards, Skomorokh 17:12, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To reduce the chance of getting into a dispute with the person(s) who added the template messages, you can check the history of the article to see who put the messages there. After you think you have fixed the problems, leave a message on the talk pages of those user(s), asking them to peruse the article and see if they agree you have fixed the problems. --Teratornis (talk) 02:24, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

copyright constraints?

Are all images on Wikipedia copyright free, that is others could use them (with proper credit) for their own purposes such as web use? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 161.55.6.9 (talk) 21:18, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Click on the image and you will see the licensing information. Many images are not free, such as images of album covers. -- kainaw ™ 21:25, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It depends. There are broadly two categories of image on Wikipedia: the free-ish and the "fair use". "Fair use" images generally can't be used on personal websites unless you have a valid fair use claim for your legal jurisdiction. Most of the images on Wikipedia are under the GFDL and can be freely used as long as that is noted. Some of them have other conditions, such as Creative Commons 3.0 Attribution, which means you must state who the creator of the image. Other images depend on your legal jurisdiction - might be free in the U.S. but not in Japan and so on. You can tell what specific copyright conditions an image is under by clicking on it and reading its description, so if there's a specific image you want to use just post the link here and we will try to help. Skomorokh 21:27, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

(ec)No, in particular many images on Wikipedia are used in accordance to the fair use rationale. Each image has a description page which should hold copyright information, there is no generic case. Images on Wikimedia Commons, on the other hand, are either in the public domain or under 'free' licenses such as the GFDL or Creative Commons which allow redistribution etc. Equendil Talk 21:32, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Image requesting a photo of a living person

I have seen an image on articles, especially in an infobox, saying that an image is not available, but asking for such an image. What is the file name of this image? --DThomsen8 (talk) 22:44, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Do you mean this one and this one? TastyCakes (talk) 22:49, 5 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, those images. However, I see a long discussion about whether these images are appropriate in articles, so I am unsure whether to make use of one of these images, or not. Advice?--DThomsen8 (talk) 00:40, 6 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

A glance at Wikipedia:Image placeholders, Wikipedia talk:Image placeholders, and Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Image placeholders provides plenty of reasons to feel unsure. Since the Wikipedia community has formed no consensus about using these images, you would use them at your own risk. I.e., if someone who doesn't like the images sees your use of them, he or she might remove them. Since different users focus on different parts of Wikipedia, it's hard to predict whether someone would notice and then disagree with your use of these images. However, you are probably asking this question because you want a free content photo of some particular person. There are other ways to go about requesting photos, which might be better than putting a notice on the article itself. Most people who look at Wikipedia do not edit Wikipedia, so a notice on the article itself would probably confuse and possibly annoy 99 out of 100 or so visitors, who just come here to read and probably have no idea how to upload a photo or how to deal with our stupefying licensing requirements. Other methods to try:

Wikipedia:Requested pictures
Search for a free image with {{Flickr free}}. For example, let's try searching for free photos of a random celebrity:
- Search Flickr for images with the keywords: Richard Dawkins under these licenses: cc-by or cc-by-sa - amazingly this produces a number of quality results (some of which are already on Commons).
Think about the geographic area(s) in which your person of interest makes public appearances. Then look through Wikipedia:Wikipedians/Photographers and maybe you can find someone in the area who can take a photo.

As for how to/whether to cite album liner notes, I think that question has come up before. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums for extensive guidelines about article layout. My quick scan didn't find anything about citing liner notes. You could look at some featured articles about albums and see how or whether they do it.
