Question from Ykmyth999 (04:01, 4 August 2022)

Do you knoa how I get information about my artist on my Google Knowledge Panel? --Ykmyth999 (talk) 04:01, 4 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Ykmyth999
  1. Wikipedia isn't Google. The Wikimedia Foundation isn't Google, either. We can't control what Google does.
  2. I heavily suspect you are editing Wikipedia as part of your job. You are required to disclose your connection to your artist/client before editing about them by our Terms of Use. Otherwise, you risk having your editing privileges revoked. You can do so here.

Question from Lilolil564 (19:43, 5 August 2022)

edit

Hello, My great grandmother’s name was Bernique Longley. She was an artist and had quite an impact on the art scene in Santa Fe NM USA during her time. When you google her name there are some bibliographies of hers, but there is no Wikipedia page. How is a new Wikipedia page created, as I do think it would have some relevance.

Thank You --Lilolil564 (talk) 19:43, 5 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Lilolil564 For the most part, Wikipedia are written by people who are fans of whomever or whatever they're writing about, and no other connection, whether personal or professional (that is, the person is relevant today because they have a following). If the article sticks around, its either reliably sourced or has fallen through the cracks and needs to be deleted. The latter is just enough of a problem that you can't justify your great-grandmother having an article because someone similar has an article. All artists who have a Wikipedia article either has reliable sources or needs to have their article deleted.
If your great-grandmother actually qualifies for an article, her article can wait until you have more confidence editing. The newcomer homepage, and later, editing independently, will help with that. You'll go to articles for creation when you have that confidence, so other people can verify you're sourcing the article, and sticking to the facts. This page simply summarizes what kind of sources you'll need. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 20:04, 5 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Question from ASBrewing (22:47, 12 August 2022)

How do I get our company page (AleSmith Brewing Company) updated with the correct logo? When I try to update it, it gets flagged saying I do not have ownership of the file that I'm attaching.

Thanks --ASBrewing (talk) 22:47, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@ASBrewing You upload it locally with a fair use rationale. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 03:51, 13 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

i want to feel in my bio --Shania141 (talk) 14:36, 17 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

As the welcome template I just gave to you explains, you really shouldn't. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 14:47, 17 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

Why are you cutting and pasting another editor's article to move it?

edit

Hello. I'm very confused as to why an editor as experienced as yourself is performing cut-and-paste moves of other editors' content in order to give it a different title [2] to [3]. You should know as well as anyone that while easier to do, it's not correct to do in terms of attribution and you should have asked to have the article moved at WP:RM/TR or an admin directly.

Quite new here. Just willing to share my humble knowledge and my time. Any good tip for me? --Thorin1618 (talk) 12:08, 22 August 2022 (UTC)Reply

@Thorin1618 I just added a welcome template to your talk page with a few tips; when you get some more confidence and want to try out something not individually suggested to you, you can go to the task center. I dream of horses (Contribs) (Talk) 13:15, 22 August 2022 (UTC)Reply
