      @Officialkelsy new editors should wait at least 4 days and make 10+ saved edits before expecting confirmed editor status. Longer and more edits will help. You can see how many saved edits you have in your Preferences when logged in

      ah yes, when the draft is moved into mainspace it takes everything with it. Including the template called {{User sandbox}}. Save the page first. Then click Edit Source to select the {{User sandbox}} template at top of the page causing this scary looking 'red error' and delete/Ctrl X to remove and save the page again with an edit summary of "removed sandbox template"

    Wikipedia is information presented from a biased and far-left perspective. They decide what is science or pseudoscience. They present information and then decide for you if something is valid or correct or acceptable. Just like Disney and the FBI, I doubt Wikipedia is going to survive the upcoming woke-purge. But then the opportunity will present itself for something better; in all three cases.

  • @fourtoes4513
    @fourtoes4513 ปีที่แล้ว

    At 13:13, mention the Internet Archive, and the ability to link to the cited page in a sourced book. At Internet Archive, a reader can create an account for free, find a source material to a wikipedia article, and link to it. A small (insignificant) problem is that that IA is a third party link, but its value far outweighs the chance of dead link, which doesn't happen here. 🙂
