External link

Hello, you just removed a link I added to Rwandan genocide denial because it was an external link. However, I was trying to add it as a citation to the body of the article to better back up what the article was saying. But I don't know how to add a proper citation so I did it in the form of a normal url link. How should I add this back properly? 86.130.142.238 (talk) 01:20, 11 June 2021 (UTC)

iPad OS - EverythingTechPro

On iPad OS , it is part of the Developer Beta. Sorry if I shouldn’t of added it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EverythingTechPro (talkcontribs) 17:48, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

EverythingTechPro, generally any piece of information added to Wikipedia must be accompanied by an citation. Obviously there is tons of stuff that gets through, but please try to add sources for anything you are adding. See WP:RS and WP:CITE for some of the fundamentals. {{u|SamStrongTalks}} (Talk) 17:55, 10 June 2021 (UTC)

Ventus (Wireless Company)

I was trying to add these four links to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ventus_(wireless_company) and was denied.

Why were these denied? What can I do to get these added? Thank you.

MediaBoomInfo (talk) 18:32, 11 June 2021 (UTC)MediaBoomInfo

@MediaBoomInfo: You appear to be adding those links for spam purposes. Generally, external links are forbidden inside the body of an article and only limited numbers should be in the footer sections. Please review these policies and let me know if you have questions. External Linking, Links normally to be avoided, Neutral Point of View, and Conflict of Interest.

Miss Idaho pageant

Here...if you are so dearly concerned over the Miss Idaho pageant on this website, then why did you not include her death news and insert her age (18) when she competed in 1952?

YOU WANT PROOF of this that I posted a mere six or so minutes after I posted it....

First female judge in Idaho's 5th Judicial District and appeared on the 1985 Miss America telecast. ZoeAnn Warberg Shaub died at 83 on Sept. 13, 2017 as result of a car accident in rural Jackpot, Nevada.

HERE.....IS THIS GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU....HOW ABOUT FIRST DOING A BASIC GOOGLE SEARCH OF YOUR OWN BEFORE YOU JUST DELETE MY INFO...ONLY FIVE MINUTES AFTER I POSTED HER DEATH INFO..LIKE OVER THREE YEARS SINCE SHE PASSED...NO ONE ELSE PUT IT ON HERE......ASK BEFORE YOU DELETE...AND YOU WILL FIND THIS:

Brett Kavanaugh

I didn't finish. This seems pretty important the way it has been described.

===Compensation of college athletes===

In his opinion on NCAA v. Alston in June 2021, in which the Supreme Court ruled unanimously that college sports were not exempt from antitrust law, Kavanaugh called the NCAA "a massive money-raising enterprise on the backs of student athletes who are not fairly compensated." No one else, he said, could "not to pay workers a fair market rate on the theory that their product is defined by not paying their workers a fair market rate." He said there were "serious questions" about other rules on compensation.[1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vchimpanzee (talkcontribs) 21:21, 23 June 2021 (UTC)

@Vchimpanzee: Totally agree that is a topic worth covering in the article. I just reverted because what was there in your edit appeared to be an editing error, just a random section header with nothing else that I saw. Happy to work with you to add something along those limes. SamStrongTalks (talk) 21:31, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
Okay, thanks.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 21:40, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
Vchimpanzee, made a small language tweak. Open to changing it back or to something else. SamStrongTalks (talk) 22:07, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
The newspaper article referred to it as his opinion, as opposed to the opinion of the Court. I'm not sure this is made clear with the new language. Also, the case was called "NCAA", although it might have been correct the way you did it.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 22:44, 23 June 2021 (UTC)
@Vchimpanzee: Tweaked it again after checking the sources again, misread them first time, my bad. I did check the "NCAA" vs spelling it out and at least on SCOTUS's website they spelled it out, as is the article here. Not opposed to abbreviation, just figured we should start there.

Thank you.— Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 14:38, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Thank you for your input at General Roman Calendar.

I believe the question needed to be raised. I did not ask it myself, even though I had it in the back of my mind, because I thought it was a big deal, but now that you did, it just seem the simple and right thing to do. I hope you will continue to contribute. Dominic Mayers (talk) 02:40, 17 June 2021 (UTC)

@Dominic Mayers: I can't say I'm planning on being super active there, but will definitely keep checking in and will contribute to the discussion.

Administrators' newsletter – July 2021

News and updates for administrators from the past month (June 2021).

  Guideline and policy news

  • Consensus has been reached to delete all books in the book namespace. There was rough consensus that the deleted books should still be available on request at WP:REFUND even after the namespace is removed.
  • An RfC is open to discuss the next steps following a trial which automatically applied pending changes to TFAs.

  Technical news

  • IP addresses of unregistered users are to be hidden from everyone. There is a rough draft of how IP addresses may be shown to users who need to see them. This currently details allowing administrators, checkusers, stewards and those with a new usergroup to view the full IP address of unregistered users. Editors with at least 500 edits and an account over a year old will be able to see all but the end of the IP address in the proposal. The ability to see the IP addresses hidden behind the mask would be dependent on agreeing to not share the parts of the IP address they can see with those who do not have access to the same information. Accessing part of or the full IP address of a masked editor would also be logged. Comments on the draft are being welcomed at the talk page.

What constitutes significant coverage?

I'm a new wiki author. Can you please help me understand why the Financial Times and Fortune magazine do not show significant coverage for the new draft I was working on (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:QuantumBlack)? I understand that this topic has been rejected, but I want to learn for future topics. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Weissercn (talkcontribs) 21:08, 1 July 2021 (UTC)

@Weissercn: the FT article appears to mostly be an interview spliced with some commentary and the Fortune article is about McKinsey, only mentioning QuantumBlack as part of their overall strategy. Also a declined draft isn’t the end, if you can find sources that show notability according to Wikipedia’s notability rules for organizations I or others would be more than happy to review again.
Does that help? :) SamStrongTalks (talk) 22:10, 1 July 2021 (UTC)


@SamStrongTalks:. Thank you for your kind explanation and all the best.

Request on 19:52:44, 2 July 2021 for assistance on AfC submission by Tmluser


I believe Transactional Machine LEarning has a reliable source: @SamStrongTalks: https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-1-4842-7023-3_2

Tmluser (talk) 19:52, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

@Tmluser: That source is useless for establishing notability or as a reliable source since it was written by the person who invented the subject of the article. The sources have to be disconnected from the subject. So not interviews with the creators or project team, nothing written by the creator or project team, nothing published by their employers, etc. SamStrongTalks (talk) 21:12, 2 July 2021 (UTC)

Help with my archives again!...

Hello Sam,

You helped me create my Archive 1 a while ago. Now I was trying to create my Archive 2 by myself but I created only a mess. Can you look at what I did and fix it? Thank you, warshy (¥¥) 16:43, 12 April 2022 (UTC)

Basically, my question is: how do you create a new file under my User Talk that is called "Archive 2". I tried different ways, and the file was created, but I cannot see it under my User Talk... Thank you, warshy (¥¥) 17:22, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
Well, after going around in circles for some 2 hours, I finally figured it out. I mean, I don't really know how I first created the file (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Warshy/Archive_2), but once it was there I finally figured out how to make it appear on my own talk page menu. So I am all set now, thank you. I just don't really know what to do with an additional redirect file (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Archive_2&redirect=no) that was created in the process. Maybe you know how to get rid of it? Thank you again, warshy (¥¥) 18:46, 12 April 2022 (UTC)
