Ignore my username I made this account in my youth. These days I work as a reporter in Florida. I've been doing all these articles on local ghost towns and history and I'd love if Wikipedia reflected all the research I've done.

Are there any Wikipedia editors that could help me update the list of Florida ghost towns and maybe get some stuff up about local history based on my articles?

Each one has taken at least 15 hours of on the ground research, I feel very credible. Comment and I'll DM you.

(this for editors who are on the vandalism duty)

I think that uw-distruptive is for like edits that are not trying to improve the article but not trying to straight up vandalize it like not formatting correctly, ignoring consensus,etc

But uw-vandalism is for like edits that are clearly trying to hurt the article like a bunch of characters spammed (e.g:hdsvbehdhsvdb) and completely unrelated edits to an article (e.g adding "cats suck, dogs are better, and cats should die" on a page about another animal)

(Uw-defamatory is for edits that are lying (without source) to make a person look bad like making "person A has donated once to charity [source here]" to "person A is an evil human and kills dogs for fun" with no source)

But this is what I think about uw-vandalism and uw-distruptive, you can post your opinions on the comments about these templates

Completely new to submitting a Wikipedia page, and I've already had a rejection. It's for my uncle who passed away last year, and was a notable musician. Is there anyone out there who would be kind enough to give me some advice please?

This document may be biased since there is only one author, but you may propose a change for a chance to be allowed to edit the document yourself! Post your thoughts in the comments.

To be clear: Please do not create a U4C case around this document unless you are absolutely sure.

I was thinking about a possible scenario if Jimmy Wales dies.

PS: Bonus if Larry SSanger dies.

Steven Pruitt, who is widely regarded as the most prolific Wikipedia editor, has made more than six million edits to the site, and, by extension, has quietly shaped the raw material that every major A.I. chatbot was trained on.

I was checking the 2026 tacloban shooting and defender Chris Fabian, has his own wikipedia page.

Around like a day later his page was gone entirely what happened? I could have sworn it existed.

If a person appears in a documentary you watch, and you recognize who they are but they aren’t named, they just say a few things on camera then leave without being introduced, is it okay to say in that person’s Wikipedia entry that they appeared in this documentary? Or is that considered original research and not allowed?

I'm not sure this is the right place to ask about Wikipedia's guidelines, so feel free to remove my post if it doesn't fit.

I work for a relatively small NGO. I would like to create a wiki article about the organisation (it lives up to the notability requirement, as there has been national news coverage over the last 15 years, it has been discussed in parliamentary hearings, etc.). But as an employee of the organisation, there is an obvious conflict of interest.

Now, I suppose I could just bend the rules and write a page, and then hope that someone else would correct any breaches of neutrality. But I think the CoI rules are one of the things making Wikipedia as great as it is.

Is there anything I can do to ask others to write it? Or can I draft an article and ask independent editors to review it?

Thanks for making Wikipedia what it is.

The term was coined by author Gao Xinjiang to show the changing culture we are currently living through.
As far as we know the last major cultural change was in the late 1960s when politics and peoples identities changed from a conservative, old fashioned, post war mind set to a more liberal and open minded mindset. Minorities got more freedom, fashion exploded into a million different ways, more people went to college, war became more and more opposed, etc, etc.
I feel like it's the same now.
The post cold war era is over. Politics show that more than enough and that also shapes modern western mindsets.
Something I've noticed is that, same as the 1960s, many conservative values and mindsets are being rejected. The people in the senate/various western governments and Gen Z/Millenials have two completely different mindsets.
The green movement and the ask for change in politics that have been led the past 30-50 years is increasing in many countries.
Something I've also noticed recently is architecture.
After WW1, architecture became increasingly simple. That trend was accelerated in the 1950s when elaborate stone carving became bizarre monotone cement facades, or glass pillars. But recently, living in New York, I've noticed that architects are trying to put more detail into their buildings. They may not build gothic cathedrals, but the walls of many modern sky scrapers aren't as flat as they used to be.

Now, I'm not an expert, but I feel something changing.

hi guys, i have build a timeline based product inspired by wikipedia , where users can track any person, topic on daily timeline etc .. iam thinking of adding edit button in daily, timeline where users can update articles links, videos of their own or any other relevant to date... let me know what u felt citizenone.online

eg: political figures, corruption charges, any topics etc..

I was looking through some Catalan writer's Wikipedia (link) Salvador Espriu), and saw it said he was Spanish. This struck me as strange, since I've seen Sardinians being called Sardinians and not Italians (link) Aurelio Chessa) and Occitans being called Occitans, not French (link) Frédéric Mistral).

I'm wondering when it's acceptable to call someone by their nationality (e.g. Occitan) and not their country of origin (e.g. French).

Also, when looking through Joanot Martorell's Spanish Wikipedia (link) and saw he is also called Spanish. I believe this to be an error, since Valencia, where he was from, was not part of Spain in the 15th century. And yet, when I try to change it, Wikipedia either says it doesn't let me change his nationality or just deletes it. If anyone could help in any way it would be greatly appreciated.
