Question from AzureBlue72 (02:30, 21 May 2025)
Hello Zippybonzo, as I'm new to Wikipedia, I require your assistance, please. I wish to make a few recommended edits to the profile of Albert Falzon on the following published page; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alby_Falzon, The changes are mainly in Albert's name as described on the current published page, which is "ALBY FALZON' Which should read; Albert 'Albe' Falzon OAM The inclusion of the Post-Nominals of OAM are due to Albert being awarded the Australian Honours award of the Order of Australia Medal (OAM) in the Kings Birthday 2023 Honours Awards, for service to Surfing, and to the Visual Arts. https://www.gg.gov.au/sites/default/files/2023-06/20230612%20-%20Media%20notes%20-%20OAM%20F-L%20-%20The%20King%27s%20Birthday%202023%20Honours%20List.pdf It is also a commonly made mistake of spelling his nickname ‘Alby’, but Albert spells it and prefers it as ‘Albe’. Please let me know what I need to do to make these edits, if possible. Yours truly, AzureBlue72 --AzureBlue72 (talk) 02:30, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi! How do I upload a photo to a page I am making? The photo I want to use is a twitter profile picture of a broadcaster. The copyright stuff is all over my head and I'm not sure what to do. --Merlin513 (talk) 04:23, 28 May 2025 (UTC)
Question from Priotyleft123 on List of Asian tornadoes and tornado outbreaks (12:52, 23 May 2025)
Hello. How do I make a table of contents? --Priotyleft123 (talk) 12:52, 23 May 2025 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Hi, and welcome to Wikipedia. A table of contents is automatically generated to the left. Note that we no longer have tables contents in actual articles; see WP:TOC for more info. Cheers, GoldRomean (talk) 17:12, 29 May 2025 (UTC)
Question from UtopianStudies (17:08, 24 May 2025)
Hi Zippybonzo! Thank you for mentoring! I am a student of Utopian Studies new to Wikipedia working on class assignment. Our class wish to add a sentence to this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kaliflower_Commune
The sentence we will want to add: something like "The group continues to publish *Kaliflower* magazine and other print media," with citations to Free Print Shop publications in print. We would format these citations similarly to footnotes 4 and 5 in existing article, but cite range of magazine volume numbers e.g. "Kaliflower (January 1980-April 2023), Vols 5-10." Does this seem correct? Again many thanks. --UtopianStudies (talk) 17:08, 24 May 2025 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Hi, and welcome. If you are editing as part of an assignment, your school/teacher needs to talk to the Wiki Education Foundation. Your suggested citation is not a reliable source, it is a primary source. You need reliable secondary source coverage instead. Cheers, GoldRomean (talk) 17:15, 29 May 2025 (UTC)
Question from Untosay (01:59, 27 May 2025)
How can I add my biography here --Untosay (talk) 01:59, 27 May 2025 (UTC)
- Hi, and welcome! You should not write a biography about yourself. GoldRomean (talk) 17:16, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

Mentorship/Academies
Hi, I know you haven't been as active recently, leaving a lot of newcomer questions unanswered. You might want to consider removing yourself from the mentorship program for now and the list of possible trainers at the CVUA/NPP Academy. Cheers, GoldRomean (talk) 17:46, 29 May 2025 (UTC)

- A new feature called Multiblocks will be deployed on English Wikipedia on the week of June 2. See the relevant announcement on the administrators' noticeboard.
- History merges performed using the mergehistory special page are now logged at both the source and destination, rather than just the source as previously, after this RFC and the resolution of T118132.

- An Articles for Creation backlog drive is happening in June 2025, with over 1,600 drafts awaiting review from the past two months. In addition to AfC participants, all administrators and new page patrollers can help review using the Yet Another AFC Helper Script, which can be enabled in the Gadgets settings. Sign up here to participate!
- The Unreferenced articles backlog drive is happening in June 2025 to reduce the backlog of articles tagged with {{Unreferenced}}. You can help reduce the backlog by adding citations to these articles. Sign up to participate!
Interest in joining NPPS
Hi @Zippybonzo, I saw your note on the WP:NPPS page and would like to apply to join NPPS. I have over 2,400 edits, including more than 2,000 in mainspace. My focus has been on article expansion, AfD participation (48 AfDs with a 94.7% match rate excluding no-consensus), and AfC reviewing (35 reviews with around a 30% acceptance rate). I’m here to help build a high-quality, open-access encyclopedia, and I’d like to deepen my understanding of notability and CSD policy so I can contribute more effectively to new page triage. NPPS looks like a great next step. Thanks again for offering your time to help editors grow their skills. HerBauhaus (talk) 06:29, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
