Speedy deletion nomination of Letter to the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of Sydney

edit
 

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Letter to the Right Honourable the Lord Mayor of Sydney requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.) that does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Question from Vixivixen (15:47, 29 June 2025)

edit

Hello, I created an article. I would like to post it. But from what I understand, I have to A) have a four day old account, which I don’t yet have And B) edit at least ten articles, which I also haven’t done.

Is there another way to get my page published through a third party, perhaps you? I use Wikipedia to learn about things often. BUT I just don’t think I have enough knowledge to edit things. BUT if I have to, I suppose I will start trying. Just wanted to see if there was a better way for me to get this article published. --Vixivixen (talk) 15:47, 29 June 2025 (UTC)Reply

How do you add UserBoxes to your Userpage - thanks in advance, Lucasku69 (talk) 23:39, 5 July 2025 (UTC)Lucasku69Reply

I'm far from experienced, but you write {{userboxtop}} to start your Userbox and {{userboxbottom}} at the end. I have a basic Userbox on my User page if you want to check it out. Here is the page for Userboxes. Hope it helps! Stave the Sigma (talk) 17:38, 9 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Question from Stave the Sigma (17:10, 9 July 2025)

edit

Hey, when i add a reference to an infobox (in my case infobox settlement under elevation_m), i get the message: 2.795[1] km2 (Formatting error: invalid input when rounding sq mi), from |area_total_km2= 2.795<ref>s</ref>. Can you help with adding references to these? Stave the Sigma (talk) 17:10, 9 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

I've looked at the template and it seems you're looking for the elevation_footnotes param. Try that. MouseCursor or a keyboard? 21:46, 9 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
Yes, that worked, thanks! Stave the Sigma (talk) 12:33, 10 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hey! I have a question about this page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_International I cannot find any - never mind reputable - sources to validate the claims made in the copy. What's the appropriate course of action? I flagged the link to Sony in an invisible comment, and added a talk topic highlighting the links issue --ABG-Mcr (talk) 11:08, 14 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

You can tag the reference with {{better source needed}} MouseCursor or a keyboard? 11:33, 14 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Question from KashiK14 on Lauren Patel (04:38, 5 August 2025)

How do I add an image of an actor to an actor’s page? Lauren Patel doesn’t currently have an image for her page even though she has plenty of good ones on IMDb. --KashiK14 (talk) 04:38, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

You may want to check if the images are under a free license. If so, you can upload them to Wikimedia Commons. If not, you should read WP:NFC, then you can upload at WP:FUW. MouseCursor or a keyboard? 19:34, 5 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi Nice to meet you !

Im new to editing Wikipedia but very exciting about this

I want to focus at first on correcting sports pages and statistics - things like appearances , goals scored , yellow cards

Do I need to put sources for these things or can I just edit it ?
