== Question from [[User:11917jamesrichard|11917jamesrichard]] (17:50, 9 September 2024) ==
== Changes to Alight ==


Hi, why did you roll back the updates I just made to the entry for Alight? The information on that entry is very dated, and the new details I added are mostly from the organization's updated website. [[User:GiovanniGF|GiovanniGF]] ([[User talk:GiovanniGF|talk]]) 20:14, 27 August 2024 (UTC)
Hi Mentor. Will Wikipedia review and/or publish an article that doesn't have citations? --[[User:11917jamesrichard|11917jamesrichard]] ([[User talk:11917jamesrichard|talk]]) 17:50, 9 September 2024 (UTC)


:Hi there {{u|GiovanniGF}},
:Hi {{u|11917jamesrichard}},
:On mobile right now so apologies for any spelling mistakes. You also deleted a bunch of well sourced content with your edit as well. Could you try to incorporate the current info as well? In addition, you seem to rely on the same website a bunch. I know it looks like its Alight’s but I would like to ask you if you can also find some reliable sources from other websites as well, that could reflect the same information. I understand you mean well, but we try not to rely on primary sources too much. If after you search, cannot find any other sources that could possibly reference the same data, then you can use the primary source as a reference. I hope this helps! P.S., try not to put external links and references in section headers. Thanks, and happy editing.

:No, absolutely not. Wikipedia will under no circumstances publish an article without citations, because we do not have any place to reference the information. An exception to this may be draft space, where you can work on your article there, but under no circumstance will an article be published without sources. Hope this helps. <b>[[User:Yoshi24517|<span style="color:#00c700;font-family:'Rockwell'">Yoshi24517</span>]] ([[User talk:Yoshi24517|<span style="color:black;font-family:'Rockwell'">Chat</span>]]) (<span style="color:red;font-family:'Rockwell'">Very Busy</span>)</b> 23:03, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
::Thank you, I will try to find additional sources. And just a note that the content I deleted was outdated - many of the countries currently listed are no longer served by the organization. [[User:GiovanniGF|GiovanniGF]] ([[User talk:GiovanniGF|talk]]) 13:10, 28 August 2024 (UTC)

== Question from [[User:Mick Dunne|Mick Dunne]] (23:22, 27 August 2024) ==


{{trout}}
Hi Yoshi. I've been trying to make an entry for my father, under people named Dunne, and it keeps being deleted. Now the page is semi-protected.
What can I do? --[[User:Mick Dunne|Mick Dunne]] ([[User talk:Mick Dunne|talk]]) 23:22, 27 August 2024 (UTC)


For [[User talk:2601:281:D881:7F10:7D43:2918:2174:B4BC|giving an IP a BLP warning]] about [[James Earl Jones|a person]] who was in fact no longer living <span class="nowrap">—[[User:pythoncoder|<span style="color:#004080">python</span><span style="color:olive">coder</span>]] ([[User talk:pythoncoder|talk]] &#124; [[Special:Contribs/pythoncoder|contribs]])</span> 22:23, 9 September 2024 (UTC)
:Hi there {{u|Mick Dunne}},
:Let me get this straight, you are trying to create a page for your father? If that’s the case, you would need to have an article made about him first, and with that comes finding sources that show he is notable in some way, and has had news or online coverage of him somewhere. [[WP:NOTABILITY]] can be a guide here. [[WP:RS]] can help show what kind of sources to use.
:Secondly, since he is your father, you do indeed have a [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]] here. As such, I would recommend that if you want to create an article, create it in the Draft space, where you can work on it. This way, you can also submit it through the [[WP:AFC|articles for creation]] process, which I would highly recommend you do due to the conflict of interest.
:Hope this helps. [[User:Yoshi24517 (mobile)|Yoshi24517 (mobile)]] ([[User talk:Yoshi24517 (mobile)|talk]]) (<b><span style="color:red;font-family:'Rockwell'">Very Busy</span></b>) 00:05, 28 August 2024 (UTC)
::I will get down to this soon. He was an actor with the Abbey Theatre in Dublin, and with many other Irish theatre companies, and appeared in English films.
::His plays are listed in the Abbey Theatre Archives wesite as Michael Dunne and mícheál ó duinn.
::I have professional photos, his portfolio, theatre programmes etc. and much more information. He toured the American east coast with The Young Ireland Theatre Company.

== About autocomplete ==

Hi yoshi. Hope you are well. I wanted to ask a question about Wikipedia autocomplete. Usually when we write stuff on Wikipedia search bar, after writing a word an autocomplete appears. There are certain articles that are less popular and not significant that will appear on the autocomplete. Is there a way to alter the autocomplete in such a way that these article suggestions will not appear when we write a word on the autocomplete [[User:Knightknight12345|Knightknight12345]] ([[User talk:Knightknight12345|talk]]) 04:15, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

:Hey {{u|Knightknight12345}},
:I have zero idea how the autocomplete works in the search bar. Sorry about that! <b>[[User:Yoshi24517|<span style="color:#00c700;font-family:'Rockwell'">Yoshi24517</span>]] ([[User talk:Yoshi24517|<span style="color:black;font-family:'Rockwell'">Chat</span>]]) (<span style="color:red;font-family:'Rockwell'">Very Busy</span>)</b> 23:51, 29 August 2024 (UTC)

:::Hey {{u|Knightknight12345}}, apologies for the delay, IRL stuff is making me very busy. I am not sure where to ask. My suggestion would be [[WP:TEAHOUSE|the Teahouse]], and just mentioning it to you now, they may give you an answer you may not want to hear. Doesn't hurt to try asking though.

Hi Mentor. Will Wikipedia review and/or publish an article that doesn't have citations? --11917jamesrichard (talk) 17:50, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

No, absolutely not. Wikipedia will under no circumstances publish an article without citations, because we do not have any place to reference the information. An exception to this may be draft space, where you can work on your article there, but under no circumstance will an article be published without sources. Hope this helps.

Whack!

You've been whacked with a wet trout.

Don't take this too seriously. Someone just wants to let you know that you did something silly.
