Help

[edit]

Hi, does anybody know how do I select an article of a different language’s wikipedia as a different language version of an english article? Thanks. Waited2seconds (talk) 12:21, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, so I'll give you a couple of answers. If an article exists in another language and you want to visit that article, you will see the link either in a sidebar (older skins) or at the top of the page (newer skins) under a "Languages" menu. If the article isn't linked in that list and you wish to add it, there is an "add language" option to link the pages together. If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance. Primefac (talk) 13:00, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

More citations needed

[edit]

So I found an article that is particularly long and has a lot of material that I see quite questionable for this kind of small territory. It only has 3 citations but a giant lot of sections. I want to ask whether I am allowed to input the More citations needed template. Waited2seconds (talk) 21:21, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

By all means, if you see unsourced content feel free to tag as necessary, or just be BOLD and start removing content if you can't find a source! Primefac (talk) 21:30, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
More exactly, I meant this template (linked) that’s at the top of an article, not exactly a tag (I think) That’s because literally the whole article (almost) is unsourced. Not a stub, a 19 649 bytes article with just 3 sources used on 3 occasions that is an article on a geographical location and most of bytes is text indeed* Waited2seconds (talk) 21:39, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The answer that Primefac gave is still good. Either tag it or edit it. Be BOLD in your editing! Someone else can always disagree and remove/revert it - RichT|C|E-Mail 23:08, 7 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Cite twice

[edit]

I have a problem. I did 2 claims into an article supported by the same source. I’ve managed to input the citation into the 1st claim, but I failed to try using the same cite for 2nd claim. How do I use the same citation twice? (Also, I am sourcing it with The Economic Times. I hope that is a reliable source. Waited2seconds (talk) 12:53, 8 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
