Hello - I can no longer see the page creation date column. —Saqib (talk I contribs) 17:59, 19 May 2024 (UTC)
- Try zooming out (Ctrl-scroll). It shows a limited number of columns depending on the space available. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 02:31, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
Question from Awais mastoi (12:21, 20 May 2024)[edit]
Hacking kar ni hy sir --Awais mastoi (talk) 12:21, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Awais mastoi: I think you misunderstand what Wikipedia is for. I've left you a message with a few links on your talk page. Please go through them and continue with editing Wikipedia only if you think it is still for you. If you are more comfortable contributing in Hindi, then the Hindi Wikipedia would be happy to accept you as an editor. Cheers! -MPGuy2824 (talk) 12:25, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- The Nuke feature, which enables administrators to mass delete pages, will now correctly delete pages which were moved to another title. [1]
- New changes have been made to the UploadWizard in Wikimedia Commons: the overall layout has been improved, by following new styling and spacing for the form and its fields; the headers and helper text for each of the fields was changed; the Caption field is now a required field, and there is an option for users to copy their caption into the media description. [2][3]
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 21 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 22 May. It will be on all wikis from 23 May (calendar). [4][5]
- The HTML used to render all headings is being changed to improve accessibility. It will change on 22 May in some skins (Timeless, Modern, CologneBlue, Nostalgia, and Monobook). Please test gadgets on your wiki on these skins and report any related problems so that they can be resolved before this change is made in all other skins. The developers are also considering the introduction of a Gadget API for adding buttons to section titles if that would be helpful to tool creators, and would appreciate any input you have on that.

Review[edit]
Please can you help review my article 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿 Mnationonly (talk) 13:50, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Mnationonly: The article that you started, Goya Menor, is a musician's biography. I'm not an expert at those and will be leaving it for another reviewer to handle. That said, I've left you a message on your talk page with a bunch of links. Please go through them when you get the time. Happy editing! -MPGuy2824 (talk) 14:09, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks and I really appreciate. Please can you refer my article to another reviewer 🙏🏿 Mnationonly (talk) 14:13, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- I really appreciate the edits you did on the article, Thanks a lot 🙌🏿❤️ Mnationonly (talk) 14:29, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- please I'm sorry for disturbing you🙏🏿
- No patroller has come to review my article Mnationonly (talk) 18:35, 21 May 2024 (UTC)
- Mnationonly, if you see the top of Wikipedia:New pages patrol, you'll notice that our backlog is over 9500 articles. We are running a backlog drive right now, and there is a good chance that a reviewer will get to the article before the drive ends. Please be patient. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 06:05, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- Okay thanks. I understand. Mnationonly (talk) 07:11, 22 May 2024 (UTC)

You recently created this article and included the {{taxonbar}} template. However, you didn't provide it with a "from" parameter. If the "from" parameter is not present, the template attempts to look up the appropriate QID using the article's title. If there is no match, then it fails and the taxonbar isn't displayed, like in this case. The Wikidata item is named with the scientific name, which is not how the article is titled. So, the from field is required to make it work. (Frankly, you should always use the "from" fields, even if the bar finds the right item, as it helps prevent disconnects.) Anyway, just thought I'd share that bit of knowledge for your future endeavors. - UtherSRG (talk) 11:16, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks, I do occasionally create species articles, so this is useful. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:42, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Question from Priyamvada Rajan (06:20, 24 May 2024)[edit]
Hello! I want to change the name of an article about my organisation. how can I do this? --Priyamvada Rajan (talk) 06:20, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Priyamvada Rajan: Could you link the article that you are talking about? In any case, you should look at Help:How to move a page. In this case, since you are a new editor, you'll have to use Wikipedia:Requested moves/Technical requests. Hope this helps. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 07:09, 24 May 2024 (UTC)
- YRG Care This is the article. The officially accepted name according to our brand guidelines is YRGCARE, so I want to change the title, that's why I am requesting your help. I will go through the page you asked me to check out. Thank you! Priyamvada Rajan (talk) 10:12, 24 May 2024 (UTC)

- Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes:
.collapsible
,.multicol
,.reflist
,.coordinates
,.topicon
. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.

Hi[edit]
Is there any Indian admin on EnWiki? My question is because it would be helpful to explain any India-related matters to him and get good replies, as an Indian would better understand Indian-related issues. I am not saying that other admins don’t understand, but it would be better. GrabUp - Talk 10:46, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- I checked a few people who are active on the India noticeboard who I thought were admins. Sadly, they aren't (yet). Let me research and get back to you. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 10:58, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for that. I think DreamRrimmer is Indian! If so, he would be the first Indian admin. 🫡| GrabUp - Talk 11:01, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Titodutta became an admin in 2015, and there may be others. But more competent admins (of any region) is a good thing. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:08, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Sure, Thanks for the information. GrabUp - Talk 11:09, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- Admins Vanamonde93 and Tinucherian are also in Wikipedia:WikiProject India/Members. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:11, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- I am looking for an Indian admin because I tagged other admins, but they didn’t respond. I am unable to give the user sufficient reasons for this on Wikipedia nor I found sufficient reason. I mentioned Dutta there. GrabUp - Talk 11:15, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think this requires an admin (even an Indian one). You can just list it at Wikipedia:Third opinion. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 11:21, 28 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi MPGuy2824, you reviewed Green Bay Packers draft picks (1936–1969) at WP:FLC a little while back. If you have the time and interest, I have its companion article at FLC too (Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Green Bay Packers draft picks (1970–present)/archive1). No pressure, just thought I would bring it to your attention if you are interested. « Gonzo fan2007 (talk) @ 19:44, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
- I don't think you have a problem here. The nom has 2 supports (+PresN's support since you've fixed the issues that he's pointed out). It also has a source review support. The list should get promoted in the next round (whenever the coords get to it). If it doesn't, I'm happy to take a look at it. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 01:56, 29 May 2024 (UTC)
Question from Svana Svana (01:18, 1 June 2024)[edit]
What can I do to speed up my entry? x --Svana Svana (talk) 01:18, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
- @Svana Svana: Welcome to Wikipedia. I've left you a message on your talk page with a bunch of links. Go through them when you get the time. To start with, I'd suggest TWA. It should teach you the basics for Wikipedia collaboration. Happy editing! -MPGuy2824 (talk) 02:53, 1 June 2024 (UTC)
