Question from Minimana2289 (14:01, 6 June 2026)

How do I edit in a certain article? When I go to it, I don't see the edit option. Also, you're human, right? --Minimana2289 (talk) 14:01, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

That is probably because you tried to edit an article which is under extended confirmed protection.

Yes, I am human. Dege31 (talk) 15:38, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

ohhhh that makes sense actually. Sorry if my question was weird, we just live in an age of AI. Minimana2289 (talk) 16:06, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

Question from Minimana2289 on User talk:Minimana2289 (19:04, 16 June 2026)

Hi

I have a question. I want to edit the Wikipedia page on my village as it very much lacks a lot of information which I can add from several sources, but editing is something very foreign to me.

Things like: citation, link to sources, making sections, links as a word etc are very confusing.

May you help me? --Minimana2289 (talk) 19:04, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Sure, ask me anything. I've also sent a short intro to your Talk page. Dege31 (talk) 19:07, 16 June 2026 (UTC)

Question from Ptorplo (23:19, 18 June 2026)

Hello, thanks for being available as a mentor. I've made a few edits that are generally additions under the heading "In popular culture" which adds a reference to a wiki page about an individual that appears in a work of fiction. For example: on Bobby Thompson's page I added information that his game winning 1951 home run (the shot heard round the world) is a key element in Don DeLillo's 1997 novel Underworld. I cited the novel and included it as a reference. Is this accepted practice? In another case (on a different wiki page), another contributor removed my reference to a novel. Wondering why? --Ptorplo (talk) 23:19, 18 June 2026 (UTC)

How do I create a page? --Jadeharris1920 (talk) 03:59, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

At the moment, you can only create a draft, because you are not autoconfirmed. Dege31 (talk) 15:27, 24 June 2026 (UTC)

Question from Kenmore57 (20:05, 16 July 2026)

Hi Dege31! I had a quick question about editing guidelines; I am currently working on a large renovation of the Paris Metro Line 18 article, which is currently available to view in my sandbox. The article was copy-pasted from the French article at some point and was translated poorly, so I am rewriting AND updating the article's content, which to me feels like I'm basically just writing a brand new article. Should I submit the revised article as a draft so it can be approved first since it's such a big change, or is it ok to just edit the article and publish the new version immediately? I just want to make sure I don't break any guidelines of any sort. Thank you! --Kenmore57 (talk) 20:05, 16 July 2026 (UTC)

If you mean Articles for Creation, only articles about new subjects are generally the focus, so this is unnecessary.

If you feel like any change might be controversial, you can update the article in a piecemeal fashion, but if you're otherwise following the guidelines, and feel it's definitely an improvement, it's fine to just do it one fell swoop. Dege31 (talk) 10:00, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

Ok, sounds good. Thanks for your help! Kenmore57 (talk) 13:02, 17 July 2026 (UTC)

Articles for Creation backlog drive

Hello Dege31:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in August!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than a month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 August 2026 through 31 August 2026.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 5000 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:37, 19 July 2026 (UTC)

• If you wish to opt-out of future mailings, please remove yourself from the mailing list or alternatively to opt-out of all massmessage mailings, you may add Category:Wikipedians who opt out of message delivery to your user talk page.

Hi! I've created an account really just to make a company page for the place I work, partly to help with AI citations but to help people learn about our story. Any key hints about making a company page that you've picked up? --DanielOutdo (talk) 11:11, 24 July 2026 (UTC)

Question from GoodBunny777 (15:48, 1 August 2026)

Hi there! Excited to meet you, and to help Wikipedia in any way that I can. A quick question for you as I get started: My background is in journalism (print, digital; including the history of journalism, journalists and also the impact of technology on news gathering, production and publishing). I didn't see any of that as an option when selecting areas of interest. Can I add it, or is journalism in general just a sub-topic within larger genres?

Thanks in advance for your reply! --GoodBunny777 (talk) 15:48, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

It is a sub-topic, but you are free to search for that content on your own. Dege31 (talk) 16:24, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

Hi! Can you help me create a page please? --Thatpeople31 (talk) 17:40, 2 August 2026 (UTC)

What kind of help do you need? Dege31 (talk) 16:23, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

There’s this artist I’ve been listening to for a decent while now without a page. He doesn’t have crazy coverage but the presence is there and I see potential so at least getting the page made would be sufficient for me to start editing. Could we collaborate on this?

Question from Liudmyla Mila (16:11, 6 August 2026)

Hello I wanted to ask , I am first time here, why article was declined and how to change my name I want Google would see me? --Liudmyla Mila (talk) 16:11, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

It's not an article, it just has a link to a Google Drive file. Dege31 (talk) 16:25, 6 August 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for reply. I am here a frst time, I want to create articles and so that they would be visible through Google search, by typing my name. How I can do it?

The system gave me an opportunity to attche the link and I though the information will be parsed. Liudmyla Mila (talk) 17:27, 6 August 2026 (UTC)
