How to look at the changes to an article
Select...
     
...and compare!
     

In the page history for any page, click (prev) (#9 on the image top right‍—‌click on the image to see a larger version) to see the changes for any version from the one just before it. To compare a series of versions, just click any two radio-buttons to select the set of versions, then click the Compare selected versions button (this only works if you have JavaScript enabled).

You should be presented with a screen that shows you which words have been removed and which ones have been added (affected words are highlighted in red). You always can revert to an earlier version by selecting it from the history, editing and saving it. We call these "diffs" because the URL has the word "diff" in it. Diff is short for difference.

Help request for mapping section titles

edit

Hi. We (the Research Team at Wikimedia Foundation) are building an algorithm that will align Wikipedia article sections across languages. For improving this algorithm we need the help of multilingual Wikipedia editors to provide true statements to the algorithm. You are contacted because based on your Babel template and/or content translation tool usage you know at least two of the following languages: ar (Arabic), fr (French), ja (Japanese), en (English), es (Spanish), ru (Russian).

(Note: by clicking the links in the following paragraph, you will be taken to Google spreadsheet.) If you'd like to help us with translating a subset of the section titles on or before 2018-05-15, please read and follow the instructions. If you see instructions in another language, please scroll down to find your preferred language. If you have questions about this message, you can contact us via Diego. Thank you! :) --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 15:58, 1 May 2018 (UTC)Reply

Thank you

Hi, thank you with your work on cleaning up non-notable promotional articles between ar.wiki and en.wiki, and I apologize that some of our editors here didn’t look at the bigger picture and realize that there was a reason you were doing this. I’ve deleted several of the pages you tagged as they clearly fall within our A7 criteria. I did not delete Ahmad Albarqi or Shahad Alzahrani because I think they would be better served through our WP:PROD or WP:AFD process. Ibrahim.ID has used AfD before here when dealing with xwiki spam between ar.wiku and en.wiki so he may be able to help. If you ever need any help on en.wiki, feel free to reach out to me either directly on my talk page or through علاء, who I talk to quite frequently. Thanks again for your help. I can’t say how much we appreciate it. TonyBallioni (talk) 04:37, 23 December 2018 (UTC)Reply

Manzoor Pashteen

Dear brother Islam, thanks for creating ar:منصور أحمد باشتين but I think the name has been missspelled there. His name is actually written as منظور, not منصور, so this article must be moved to new title "منظور باشتين". For example, see this Al Jazeera article where he is referred to as "منظور باشتين". Thanks, Khestwol (talk) 10:11, 30 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Abdul Qadir Gilani. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted.

  Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Abdul Qadir Gilani, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you.--Leopard72 (talk) 12:54, 26 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Rashidun governors of Jordan

edit
 

A tag has been placed on Category:Rashidun governors of Jordan indicating that it is currently empty, and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion. If it remains empty for seven days or more, it may be deleted under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Liz Read! Talk! 06:31, 14 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
