I'd like to add the thingie for the Wars of the Three Kingdoms task force to the banners for my articles on the subject, but I can't get the required syntax clear, with all the brackets. It would help if I could see how this works on my Hercules Huncks article, so I could copy it over to others. Thanks for all your help. Lois Hacker (talk) 03:13, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Lois Hacker, does this help? I added |Three-Kingdoms=y to the {{WikiProject Military history}} template on Talk:Hercules Huncks. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:39, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Yes! I had no idea where it should go in the banner or how it should be bracketed. Many thanks. Lois Hacker (talk) 14:58, 19 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Do you know if I should remove the promotional content tag from this page entirely or move it down to a potentially promotional article? I already removed the promotional language and the article provides important info. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japonais_Chicago --AndiamoZiggy (talk) 14:48, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi AndiamoZiggy, thanks for the message. If you've removed the promotional language and you don't have a conflict of interest (like being an employee of Japonais Chicago), then feel free to remove the tag. Let me know if you have any other questions! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 15:01, 21 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I am facing difficulties in adding images in any article. Please help me out... Thanks --IND123456 (talk) 14:28, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi IND123456, thanks for the message. The answer is a bit complicated.

• If you took the photo, or if it has been released under a free license, you can upload it to Wikimedia Commons, then add it to the article with wikitext like [[File:IMAGE NAME HERE.jpg|thumb]], or with the "+" button in the Visual Editor.
• If the photo hasn't been released under a free license (like most photos you might find online), you'll need to check if it meets Wikipedia's non-free content criteria. If it does, you can upload it by going to Wikipedia:File upload wizard and clicking "Upload a non-free file", then following the instructions. Then you can edit the article to add it as described above.

You can find a lot more details at Wikipedia:Images. There are many different kinds of images and many ways to use them, with special rules and guidelines in some cases, so please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. If you tell me more about the image and the article, I can give you more specific advice. —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 14:39, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. Thank you very much Mx. Granger. Will revert after a bit of study on it. Thanks for your help. IND123456 (talk) 12:32, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

how can i tell what is text and what isnt? --Cyrian88 (talk) 18:40, 26 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Cyrian88, thanks for the message. If you're asking about how Wikipedia articles' formatting is generated by wikitext, you can find detailed information at Help:Wikitext and a basic guide at Help:Introduction to editing with Wiki Markup. If you mean something else, can you please rephrase the question? —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 15:04, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

How do I create Citation? --Long Wama Inch (talk) 22:25, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Long Wama Inch, thanks for the message. If you use the source editor (from the links that say "Edit source"), take a look at Help:Referencing for beginners. If you use the VisualEditor, there's a guide at Help:Introduction to referencing with VisualEditor/2. It can be a bit confusing at first, so let me know if you have any follow-up questions! —Mx.

Hey men how can I edit banafar page ? It is protected and showing wrong information on internet --Rohanism2511 (talk) 12:18, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Rohanism2511, thanks for the message. Because the page is protected, you can't edit it directly, but you can make an edit request at Talk:Banaphar. Please read through the instructions at Wikipedia:Edit requests and the previous discussions on the talk page first though, because it looks like there's a history of controversy at that article. I know it can seem a bit complicated at first, so let me know if you have any follow-up questions! —Mx. Granger (talk · contribs) 04:10, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
