I would like to know which Wikipedia rules I have contravened such that I am blocked. Free speech? My *rse. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Swidger28 (talk • contribs) 05:46, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I can see no evidence that you are blocked. Perhaps you forgot to log on and received a message intended for a vandal using the same IP address. Just log in and try again, but please note that former QES pupils must already have an article on Wikipedia to be added to the list. By the way, Wikipedia editors are expected to be polite.

Perhaps you may be asking why your edits were reverted in this dif? OkayKenji ^{(talk page)} 06:23, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

WP:s purpose is not to give you a forum for free speech, more at Wikipedia:Free speech. Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 08:17, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Your outburst here apparently resulted in a real block a few hours later. If ever you return to Wikipedia, please come back with the intention of improving the encyclopaedia, and add only referenced facts. You also need to read WP:Notability. Dbfirs 06:14, 19 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Why do I always get an overlay down the left hand side of the Wikipedia page with these headings which I cannot turn off? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.191.78.1 (talk) 08:15, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

confidential information regarding our products is available on usermanual.wiki - i can't find a way to contact them directly to have it removed. Any help? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Reb1walsh (talk • contribs) 08:54, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Usermanual.wiki has no connection with Wikipedia. It is an American website hosted by cloudfare.com of 665 Third Street #207, San Francisco, CA, 94107 (Phone +1-650-319-8930). Perhaps someone here can find out for you who runs the website. It would be best to contact them directly, rather than the hosting company. Dbfirs 09:10, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Prithvi Singh Azad (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views)

I am the Grandson of Baba Prithvi Singh Azad. The following statements given on Wikipedia are incorrect:

He came from a Dalit family[2] . This is incorrect & needs to be removed. He came from a Bhati Rajput family oroginally from Jaisalmer, Rajasthan.

After the Indian independence, he served as the minister of labor and local self-government in the Bhim Sen Sachar ministry in the state of Punjab.[3] He was also a member of the first Constituent Assembly of India.[4] Both these statements are incorrect & need to be removed. It was reported that Azad was with Chandra Shekhar Azad just before the British forces surrounded him at Alfred Park on 27 February 1931, but the latter asked Prithvi Singh to escape while deciding to continue his battle with the forces. This statement is incorrect & needs to be removed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2409:4055:208:A69F:9FF:6A6F:258D:83A9 (talk) 09:20, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, all the statements you refer to are supported by seemingly independent reliable sources. Wikipedia reports on what has been written about a subject in reliable secondary sources. If you wish to see changes made you can request this at the article talk page. You will need to provide sources to support your version. As you have a

conflict of interest you should not attempt to edit the article yourself. Please do not disrupt the article further. Thank you. Eagleash (talk) 09:38, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply

@

policy on autobiographies; creating one is strongly discouraged. This is because people naturally write favorably about themselves. In order for you to be successful in writing about yourself, you would essentially need to forget everything you know about yourself and only write based on what independent sources you are completely unconnected to have chosen to write about you. Most people cannot do this. If you just want to tell the world about yourself, you should use social media like Facebook. 331dot (talk) 10:11, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply

One year since submission draft:Stefan_Thurner

Dear Help desk, next week it will be a year since I submitted the article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Stefan_Thurner I rewrote it several times, added content and sources etc. to meet all the wikipedia-helper's inputs. In summer I asked what could be wrong with the text and was told that it looks fine.

I understand that there is a lot of other articles around and that you are all volunteers (I really appreciate what you are doing!), but is it normal that submissions are left unnoticed for SUCH a long time? Thanks for your inputs -- and special thanks for accelerating the proceedings (if that would be possible)... Avecaesaria (talk) 11:55, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You still haven't submitted it for further review, as you were told in response to your questions at the Teahouse in March and in August. When you want to resubmit it, you can use the blue "Resubmit" button. --David Biddulph (talk) 12:03, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

filer resubmitted it. Note on file: the backlog is currently about 5 months. Victor Schmidt mobil (talk) 07:42, 17 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Danish Renzu - Wikipedia page

This is very very unfair that if anyone creates the name of a known filmmaker Danish Renzu you keep suspending the account. Why so unfair to this filmmaker? There was recent account created by someone with all correct links and media — you can google and find, and again the account was suspended. Is this fair? Yes the filmmaker has done enough work and should be up on Wikipedia but again and again, repeatedly you’re blocking us. When we stopped and accepted that we will not be creating one. Someone else did unknown to us but you again got that removed? Why? This is not done.

This violates our rights to keep Danish Renzu account who has tons of articles and media but removed repeatedly by some users here misusing Wikipedia guidelines. Please fix and enable Wikipedia page of Danish Renzu — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sheikhzaidzahoor (talk • contribs) 14:50, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Test in template if an article is a redirect

Is there a part of template syntax that allows one to check if an article is a redirect? I've created {{Tropical cyclone season}} and I have the problem that, at e.g. 2019–20 Australian region cyclone season#External links, as Tropical cyclones in 2020 exists, it's wikilinked next to Tropical cyclones in 2019 in the navbox title. The problem is that the link isn't useful as the 2020 page redirects to the 2019 one. I'd like the 2020 number there to simply render as text (which it would do if the redirect didn't exist).

User Pages

Hello there, I received notification that someone does not believe my username is real and it is a bot. May I make it clear that I am a real user though the page, and how is a user page to be formatted? Is there an example I can see?

Thanks for any help. Nathanbreeze (talk) 20:11, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is no such notification on your user talk page. Where do you think you received it? --David Biddulph (talk) 20:12, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The notification has since disappeared. I found it this morning by clicking on the little bell icon. If there is no issue, we can close this request.Nathanbreeze (talk) 20:14, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You can probably safely ignore that. I've never seen a (ro)bot named Nathan but I've met several people with that name. I'll mark this as resolved, feel free to remove the "resolved" tag if it happens again. Poveglia (talk) 20:46, 16 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
