I am using Firefox 4 on windows 7 and I've noticed that some math symbols don't show up. There's no box, it's just completely blank. I've noticed this problem with set inclusion symbols and the wedge product, though there are probably others that don't show up either.

Anyway, I tried both fixes mentioned here, but neither worked. (Unchecking the allow overriding fonts box and changing the font to Ariel Unicode MS) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Help:Special_characters#Viewing Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (talk) 12:50, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can you give some examples of symbols/articles you're having issues with? Cheers. Rehevkor ✉ 13:02, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well I kind of already did, but if you want a specific example of an article,

Exterior Algebra is one. It appears to me like there is just a blank space between the u and v. Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (talk) 17:17, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply

The people at

WT:WPM might be able to help. Meanwhile, check this list of Unicode symbols and see what percent of those symbols are showing up for you as intended. An empty square box in the left hand column shows a failure. EdJohnston (talk) 03:27, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply

Oddly, all but three of the symbols (circled bullet, double plus and triple plus) show up for me on that page. All of the math symbols show up, even though they don't on Wikipedia. Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii (talk) 17:53, 25 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. Sorry it took so long to respond, but whenever I tried before, it refused to save my edit.

Permission to upload an image is only granted after ten edits and I do not wish to edit any articles. I would like to upload an image that I've been working upon for the Empires section. All the information in my image has been extracted from Wikipedia pages and therefore there are no copyright issues. Can I upload an image without having to edit ten times. My image is of a modern empires chart 'Chart of Empires'. Thank you Cliffjohn —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cliffjohn (talk • contribs) 13:53, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Can you elaborate on this extraction from Wikipedia pages? You say "therefore there are no copyright issues" but many of the images on Wikipedia are copyrighted and being used in specific places under a claim of

autoconfirmation issue, if my concerns over copyright are unfounded and the image is free, then it shouldn't be uploaded here at all but to the Wikimedia Commons instead, so that all projects have access to the image (sign up). A secondary benefit of this is that there is no editing autoconfirmation threshold at the Commons. Finally, making ten edits is easy: Just search for a common misspelling and fix it in ten article. This list will make that easy.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 15:17, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply

I've been trying to deorphan Charles Hollis Jones by linking to the article from Hot Wax (album), List of furniture designers, and List of American artists 1900 and after. While I can clearly see the links to Charles Hollis Jones on those three articles and those links are working properly, the list of incoming links does not show either of those articles.

After spending hours typing out my page, I saved it, viewed it, was happy with it, until i checked it a few hour later and some nice person has done a speedy deletion of my page!

It was significant because im going to be the first person to create a medium sized business with no capital or finance. The subject being me! ANDREW ANDERSON! So please can you put my page back up, or at least email me a copy of exactly what i put, along with the exact error's wikipedia doesnt like outlined in it!

If you like, you can contact the admin who deleted the article. See

WP:UND ("If you feel an administrator has erred in closing a deletion discussion or in applying a speedy deletion criterion, please contact them directly.").

It looks like you were trying to create an advertisement about your own company. Wikipedia is not a place for advertising, but an encyclopedia. I think you were simply confused about what kind of web site Wikipedia is. After you have begun your business, and it has become well known, other people will write about you and your company in a neutral way, without your having to lift a finger. The best thing for you to do is not worry about Wikipedia, and focus on building your business. -FisherQueen (talk · contribs) 18:36, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It is unfortunate that you created the page yourself and spend considerable amount of time to create it, which an administrator can possibly return to you, moving forward, please start with the referenced article above first instead of trying to make the article appropriate on your own and simply re-adding it.

As a courtesy, I have put the contents of the article in my sandbox here. It will almost certainly be overwritten within a couple of days, but can be retrieved from the edit history thereafter.--Wehwalt (talk) 23:09, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

If you click edit, near the bottom of the page you will see the categories, something like [[Category:Living people]] for a living people category. You just need to remove the link to the category that does not belong. It might be good to bring up the category on the article's talk page and explain why you think the category should be removed prior to doing it. GB fan (talk) 20:03, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
