Question from Shamere31 on Draft:Shamere Hardeman (22:18, 27 March 2024)
Where does picture go? -- Shamere31 ( talk) 22:18, 27 March 2024 (UTC)
- @ Shamere31: I'm not certain of what you mean – do you mean like at the very top of the article Albert Einstein, for example? If so, you can put the image in an infobox, for a person this would typically be {{ Infobox person}} or a more specific one listed at Wikipedia:List of infoboxes § Person. I see that your username is the same as the name of the person it looks like you want to write about – if you are trying to write about yourself, please be aware that doing so is strongly discouraged. Wikipedia is not a platform for advertising or promotion: if you meet Wikipedia's inclusion criteria, someone else will probably make an article about you eventually.

Technical news

Miscellaneous
- Editors are invited to sign up for The Core Contest, an initiative running from April 15 to May 31, which aims to improve vital and other core articles on Wikipedia.
No worries about lots of requests, but perhaps post here, or on my talk page for any further administrative actions to take that don't directly involve that other user. As for move protection, it is currently move protected and requires autoconfirmed or extended confirmed. There's something fishy going on here. I am not familiar with what led to the current move protection so I'll ask the protecting admin.
@ Favonian: Can you have a look at Cliff Cash? You move protected this for some reason related to sockpuppetry. The article got moved to draft by user:XyreneRed who was able to do it by beelining to autoconfirmed with a series of short description edits. Curiously, that user account was created Dec 3, 2021 and only made a single edit to their user page one year later and has been dormant until now whereupon they immediately futzed around with the Cliff Cash page. That seems rather odd. -- Whpq ( talk) 01:23, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

XyreneRed (not pinged) is indeed a sockpuppet, see
Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Liamb2011.

- Not sure why the account was dormant so long. Doesn't really matter though, I suppose. It's certainly the same person behind the account – only editing from the iOS app, same pattern of trying to edit Cliff Cash and now Kristen Hanby (
User:XyreneRed/sandbox).

- @ Whpq: Kristen Hanby has just been moved to article space. Tollens ( talk) 01:34, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- User now blocked. Tollens ( talk) 01:54, 8 April 2024 (UTC)
- Looks like Liz has temporarily upgraded the move protection on Cliff Cash and salted Kristen Hanby (thank you!). This looks like it has all been dealt with now, hopefully. Tollens ( talk) 10:36, 8 April 2024 (UTC)

Question from Pirate dzns (10:45, 10 April 2024)
how can i make kaimla article semi-protected for me -- Pirate dzns ( talk) 10:45, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
- @ Pirate dzns: The whole reason it is extended-confirmed protected in this case is so that you cannot edit it during the dispute that you're involved in right now. You are welcome to discuss on the talk page to attempt to reach consensus for your change. Tollens ( talk) 22:23, 11 April 2024 (UTC)
