Good morning! How soon add images to an article?

Thanks! --Lmmastro (talk) 14:05, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ugh. Autocorrect strikes again.

the question was how do I add images to an article? Lmmastro (talk) 14:06, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am a retired computer software developer. I have prepared changes to an article on the Recovery Version of the Bible and reviewed them with a retired English teacher who edits publications. She felt these changes were good, so I'm preparing to install them. I have a TMobile phone and was blocked at home, so I moved to another location and I was able to add my user name. I'll try to do my updates soon after I understand a little more. --DRHovis (talk) 19:30, 21 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm editing this line now. Every editor is a little different. I added a blank line ahead of this note. Publishing it.

I noted the edit button just above my initial comment. It lets me focus on this area of the big talk section. Cool. Adding a blank line above these 2 lines.

According to the official U.S. Embassy in India, the 2025 Pahalgam attack is classified as a terrorist attack. Since this statement comes from the U.S. Embassy, it can be considered an official stance of the U.S. government, as such statements are not issued without federal authorization. I used a link from the official U.S. government website as a source to edit the article and label the attack as a terrorist act. However, despite not violating any Wikipedia policy, I received warnings and my edit was reverted. Please verify the source through the article’s edit history, as I cannot insert the link here. King Ayan Das (talk) 13:48, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@King Ayan Das: US embassy is not a secondary source, any government’s stance does not mean it should be added to the lede. Read MOS:TERRORIST. Also, please do not use multiple accounts for editing as I warned you to your talk page, and if then disclose them. GrabUp - Talk 13:50, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't use multiple accounts. Event i didn't use word 'Islamism' word in my edit King Ayan Das (talk) 13:53, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@King Ayan Das: Is this not your account? User:Ayan Das 5325. GrabUp - Talk 13:54, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I don't use this account . When i new in Wikipedia than i mistakenly done it . Is this account used in this article any more ? King Ayan Das (talk) 13:58, 24 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello GrabUp:

WikiProject Articles for creation is holding a month long Backlog Drive in June!
The goal of this drive is to reduce the backlog of unreviewed drafts to less than 1 month of outstanding reviews from the current 3+ months. Bonus points will be given for reviewing drafts that have been waiting more than 30 days. The drive is running from 1 June 2025 through 30 June 2025.

You may find Category:AfC pending submissions by age or other categories and sorting helpful.

Barnstars will be given out as awards at the end of the drive.
There is a backlog of over 3200 pages, so start reviewing drafts. We're looking forward to your help! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 00:25, 20 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator Elections | Call for Candidates

The administrator elections process has officially started! Interested editors are encouraged to self-nominate or arrange to be nominated by reviewing the instructions at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/July 2025/Candidates.

Here is the schedule:

• July 9–15 - Call for candidates
• July 18–22 - Discussion phase
• July 23–29 - SecurePoll voting phase

Please note the following:

• The requirements to run are identical to RFA—a prospective candidate must be extended confirmed.
• Prospective candidates are advised to become familiar with the community's expectations of administrators, which are much higher than the minimum requirement of having extended confirmed status. This includes reviewing successful and unsuccessful RFAs, reading the essay Wikipedia:Advice for RfA candidates, and possibly requesting an optional poll on their chances of passing.
• The process will have a seven day call for candidates phase, a two day pause, a five day discussion phase, and a seven day private vote using SecurePoll. Discussion and questions are only allowed on the candidate pages during the discussion phase.
• The outcome of this process is identical to making a request for adminship. There is no official difference between an administrator appointed through RFA versus administrator elections.
• Administrator elections are also a valid means of regaining adminship for de-sysopped editors.

Ask any questions about the process at the talk page. A separate user talk message will be sent to official candidates with additional information about the process.

If you are interested in the process, please make sure to watchlist the appropriate pages. A watchlist notice will be added when the discussion phase opens, and again when the voting phase opens.

Administrator Elections | Discussion phase

The discussion phase of the July 2025 administrator elections is officially open. As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

• July 18–22 - Discussion phase (we are here)
• July 23–29 - SecurePoll voting phase
• uly 30–c. Aug 3 - Scrutineering phase

We are currently in the discussion phase. The candidate subpages are open to questions and comments from everyone, in the same style as a request for adminship. You may discuss the candidates at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/July 2025/Discussion phase.

On July 23, we will start the voting phase. The candidate subpages will close again to public questions and discussion, and everyone will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote totals cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's totals during the election. You must be extended confirmed to vote.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last approximately four days, or perhaps a little longer. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the results page (you may want to watchlist this page) and transcluded to the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose), and must also have received a minimum of 20 support votes. Because this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").

Any questions or issues can be asked on the election talk page. Thank you for your participation. Happy electing.

Administrator Elections | Voting phase

The voting phase of the July 2025 administrator elections has started and continues until July 29 at 23:59 UTC. You can participate in the voting phase at Wikipedia:Administrator elections/July 2025/Voting phase.

As a reminder, the schedule of the election is:

• July 23–29 – Voting phase
• July 30–c. Aug 3 – Scrutineering phase

In the voting phase, the candidate subpages will close to public questions and discussion, and everyone who qualifies to vote will have a week to use the SecurePoll software to vote, which uses a secret ballot. You can see who voted, but not who they voted for. Please note that the vote totals cannot be made public until after voting has ended and as such, it will not be possible for you to see an individual candidate's vote total during the election. The suffrage requirements are similar to those at RFA.

Once voting concludes, we will begin the scrutineering phase, which will last for approximately four days, perhaps longer. Once everything is certified, the results will be posted on the results page (this is a good page to watchlist), and transcluded to the main election page. In order to be granted adminship, a candidate must have received at least 70.0% support, calculated as Support / (Support + Oppose), and a minimum of 20 support votes. Because this is a vote and not a consensus, there are no bureaucrat discussions ("crat chats").
