Question from Wonderbosss (16:31, 12 April 2024)

What else do I have to add to this article Draft:Kourage Beatz Nsi to make it notable. I've already added notable people he has worked with and his his albums that have charted on popular charts. --W 0 N D E R B O $ $ $ (talk) 16:31, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Wonderbosss. You should add references that show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). 94rain Talk 17:24, 12 April 2024 (UTC)

What are some effective strategies for navigating disputes and reaching consensus on contentious topics within Wikipedia's editing community, especially when dealing with conflicting viewpoints or interpretations of reliable sources? --Stylojohn (talk) 08:02, 24 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I'm an Ayurveda doctor, so my expertise lies primarily in Ayurveda-related topics. Could you guide me on where to find such articles for reference and editing? Also, I have some photographs of herbs commonly used in Ayurveda. How can I incorporate them into the articles? Appreciate any advice or assistance. --Avshai911 (talk) 13:51, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Avshai911. Welcome to Wikipedia! You can take a look at Category:Ayurveda to find such articles.

Question from RuffledParrot (18:55, 23 April 2024)

I need to add a citation, pointing to the birth record of Vesta Tilley showing the birth address, which has been given incorrectly as Commandery Street. This is a national Record Office document, available only upon payment. Should I quote the route to it thus: (BIRTHS: POWLES, Matilda Alice, Worcester, JUN 1864, Vol 6c, P323). It would not be a hyperlink. --RuffledParrot (talk) 18:55, 23 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @RuffledParrot. Welcome to Wikipedia! Is the national Record Office document available online? If so, you can just link that page even it says it requires payment. If not, it's still fine if there's no hyperlink. See also Wikipedia:Verifiability#Access_to_sources 94rain Talk 07:08, 24 April 2024 (UTC)
Thank you. I got very busy after my first edit on further Vesta Tilley background research, but did add on a couple of citations after your reply, and finally today have got back to it properly, added a few more details, and will do one more citation a bit later today. Maybe one day I'll write something about the Star Music Hall in Nottingham, for a hot link, but not yet! RuffledParrot (talk) 12:52, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from 3DmicroPrintExpert (11:22, 4 April 2024)

Hi, I got a question regarding adding a language. I added the English version of a German article about a company called Nanoscribe. I work with their devices in my research and think it's worth to mention them in English wikipedia too. But I don't know how to connect these two articles with each other. Could you help me? --3DmicroPrintExpert (talk) 11:22, 4 April 2024 (UTC)

Hi @3DmicroPrintExpert. Welcome to Wikipedia! The page about Wikipedia:Wikidata should answer your questions. If you still have questions, feel free to let me know! 94rain Talk 09:01, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Hi @94rain thanks for your reply. I found the way. But since my article has been moved back to drafts, I can't link to it now. I changed a lot of sources after it was pointed out to me that some sources weren't good.
But now my article has been in the drafts for about two months. Could you give me some advice on what I can do about this? There are ~2600 articles waiting for review. So right now it feels like I did all this work for nothing :( 3DmicroPrintExpert (talk) 08:47, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Preyn1 (16:12, 5 May 2024)

The article on the 136th Airlift Wing TEXaANG states that in 1966 the unit made transitional deployments to Ramstein Air Base Germany. The actual deployments were not to Ramstein but to Rhein Main Air Base in Frankfurt. However, the “Ramstein” reference in the article is itself a link and when I click to edit it it merely opens the Ramstein link. Might be simpler if you just made the change. Source: at the time I was in the 136ARW public affairs office and made several deployments myself. --Preyn1 (talk) 16:12, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Question from Droste1977 (21:24, 12 May 2024)

Hi, when I started to learn about editing I figured I would begin with topics which I am quite familiar with because I have published in that area. The topic I know most about is German nationality law. The Wikipedia article on that is rated GA and that supposedly is above my "pay grade." I agree that the article is good, but it can be improved further. Besides little things I noticed that it does not touch on the political controversies behind this area of law. I also just looked at a very different article on ranked-choice voting, and I was actually recruited to work on 2024 election articles. That article also does not mention that election rules in this country are highly controversial. How can you cover these topics without mentioning the political controversies? --Blaze Droste1977 21:24, 12 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi @Droste1977. Welcome to Wikipedia! Sorry for the late response. You can cover these topics by:
  • Adding Reliable Sources: Cite reputable sources that discuss the political controversies.
  • Neutral Tone: Present the controversies factually without taking sides.
  • Balanced Coverage: Ensure all significant viewpoints are included to provide a balanced perspective.

Question from Kentucky Rain24

Hi94Rain

It has been a while , and happily, I;ve been able to get around without the need to bug you too much.

I do have a question from an issue that came up today - there is a new article - 2024 Nuseirat rescue operation, that some editors want renamed (to a name with "Massacre" in the title. I object to that name (as do others) and it has not been changed , yet.

Another editor than went and created a new article with the name the was objected to. Is that an appropriate way to resolve these kinds of disagreements - having 2 articles about the same thing, but with diffenrt names expressing the opposing points of view?

Question from Zelda Zanders (16:06, 23 July 2024)

Hello! I'm a new Wiki editor and I recently expanded an article on the attorney Melvin Wulf. Another user flagged the article as 1) excessively reliant on primary sources, and 2) potentially not compliant with notability guidelines. When I asked them to elaborate, they recommended I reach out directly to my mentor for guidance.

I'm only aware of two primary sources used: the Rutgers Oral History Archive interview conducted by Nicholas Molnar, cited twice, and Wulf's article about Philip Agee, cited once. Would you be able to glance over the article and let me know if there are additional citations I should be concerned about? I'd also really appreciate any guidance on the notability flag.
