Alphabetical list of articles

Sometimes, it might be useful to look up a subject in the same way you would do so in a book—in the index. Wikipedia has an index. To use it..

  1. click on the Special pages line of the Tools menu
  2. from the Lists of pages section, click on the All pages with prefix link
  3. at Display pages with prefix: type the beginning of the article's name into the box and press Go.

You will see a list of all pages that begin with what you typed.

You can reduce the number of articles displayed in this list by typing more of the name and pressing Go again. You can also find Wikipedia users in a similar way by changing the entry in the drop-down box labelled Namespace, from (Article) to User.

To add this auto-updating template to your user page, use {{totd}}

Managing a conflict of interest

edit

  Hello, Svetlana Ischenko. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page Dmytro Kremin, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:

  • avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
  • propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the {{request edit}} template);
  • disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
  • avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
  • do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Cordless Larry (talk) 22:35, 17 May 2018 (UTC)Reply
