Question from Cooperstiny (20:36, 24 October 2022)
Hello Berrely. Would you be able to guide me through replacing the logo on the page of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum? The current logo is outdated and our graphics design team would like our current logo shown. Thank you in advance. --Cooperstiny (talk) 20:36, 24 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Cooperstiny, do you have the logo in a vector format like SVG? If so, you can just press the "Upload a new version of this file" button on the File:National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum logo.svg page. Otherwise, a new page will have to be created for the file, which I can assist you with. – Berrely • T∕C 09:50, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
- Excellent. Our design team is sending me the SVG version shortly. I'll give it a try. Thank you! 64.246.131.210 (talk) 13:07, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
- I got the SVG version from the design team, but when I go to that file, it says "You cannot overwrite this file" and I do not see an "Upload a new version" button. Any ideas? Cooperstiny (talk) 19:13, 25 October 2022 (UTC)
- Hi @Cooperstiny, if you want you can try sending it to me so I can upload it on behalf of you. My email is berrely1

Question from Lebron21 (18:13, 2 November 2022)
I am having trouble figuring out what to edit. Can you help me --Lebron21 (talk) 18:13, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
- Hi Lebron21 and welcome to Wikipedia. I edit in topics I'm familiar with, and I'd recommend you do so too. Try finding something you find interesting or know information about, or you could try doing some copyediting. There's some information at H:YFA and WP:Task centre. Hope this helps! – Berrely • T∕C 19:11, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
