Congratulations to FA and appearance to come! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:36, 7 July 2024 (UTC)

Pictured on the Main page: Brian's Mozart family grand tour, my story today, and Mozart related to all three items of music on my talk: our 2023 concert, an opera in a theatre where a Mozart premiere took place, and those remembered, Martti Wallén, a bass, and Liana Isakadze, a violinist from Georgia, (whose article would be better with more details about her music-making). --Gerda Arendt (talk) 10:17, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

My story today is - because of the anniversary of the premiere OTD in 1782 - about Die Entführung aus dem Serail, opera by Mozart, while yesterday's was - because of the TFA - about Les contes d'Hoffmann, opera by Offenbach, - so 3 times Mozart again if you click on "music" ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:55, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Today's story is about a photographer who took iconic pictures, especially View from Williamsburg, Brooklyn, on Manhattan, 9/11, yesterday's was a great mezzo, and on Thursday we watched a sublime ballerina. If that's not enough my talk offers the chamber music from two amazing concerts. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 11:10, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I don't follow your question. Could you rephrase it? —Ganesha811 (talk) 18:43, 8 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (12:31, 9 July 2024)

Hello Ganesha811,

I hope you're doing well. I am Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar, a content writer particularly focused on geopolitics connected to history. I have a question about adding some information to a Wikipedia article. I've written a line about the revenue generated from cocoa sales within Ivory Coast in 2024. Here is the text I want to add to the "Chocolate production" section of the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocoa_bean

"In 2024, the revenue generated from cocoa sales within Ivory Coast, like in supermarkets and convenience stores, is about US$ 9.7 million. The revenue generated domestically is projected to increase annually by 2.64% (CAGR 2024-2029)."

This information is from "Cocoa - Ivory Coast" from: [Statista](https://www.statista.com/outlook/cmo/hot-drinks/cocoa/ivory-coast#:~:text=Revenue%2C%20at%20home%20(e.g.%2C,(CAGR%202024%2D2028)).

Could you please confirm me that can I add this lines as citation, ensuring it meets Wikipedia's guidelines for reliable sources and verifiability?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards, Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar --Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 12:31, 9 July 2024 (UTC)

If (as your modification suggests) you are no longer planning on linking your blog, that's definitely better, but regrettably per WP:STATISTA, Statista is not necessarily reliable and should not be used directly as a source. I would look for the statistics elsewhere - perhaps try the FAO, which is a UN branch which deals with statistics like this. —Ganesha811 (talk) 13:38, 13 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Maximilianwikimake (03:15, 14 July 2024)

hey can you move my page from the sandbox to the public to view, thanks! --Maximilianwikimake (talk) 03:16, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

I would recommend you take your proposed article through the WP:AfC process. Bear in mind that creating an article about yourself or someone you know is strongly discouraged by Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. —Ganesha811 (talk) 18:15, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (15:05, 14 July 2024)

Hello Ganesha811,

I hope you're doing well. I have a question about adding some information to a Wikipedia article. I've written a few lines about the recent developments in the Middle Corridor. Here is the text I want to add to the "Trans-Caspian International Transport Route" article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trans-Caspian_International_Transport_Route

"Since the Russia-Ukraine conflict, cargo traffic in the Middle Corridor has grown to nearly 3.2 million tons in 2022, as goods shifted from the Northern Corridor. Turkey positions itself as a key player between China and Europe through the Organization of Turkic States for the Middle Corridor. The Middle Corridor is the shortest route from China to Europe, with cargo transportation increasing six-fold in the last decade."

This information is from "The rise of the Middle Corridor: What is India's response?" from: Observer Research Foundation: https://www.orfonline.org/expert-speak/the-rise-of-the-middle-corridor

Could you please confirm that I can add these lines with the citation, ensuring it meets Wikipedia's guidelines for reliable sources and verifiability?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards, Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar --Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 15:05, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

If you were uninvolved with the creation of the report, do not have any affiliation with the Observer Research Foundation, and are certain that it is a reliable source per Wikipedia's policies (WP:RELIABLE), go ahead and edit - be WP:BOLD. —Ganesha811 (talk) 18:13, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Thomas Matthew Crooks

I was about to add a redirect vote right as you SNOW closed an AFD that was open for 5 hours, meaning people in certain time zones in the United States would be unable to respond due to sleeping. Could the AFD be re-opened? Downerr2937 (talk) 16:45, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

Given the overwhelming consensus, I stand by the speedy close and would not be willing to re-open the discussion myself. —Ganesha811 (talk) 16:46, 14 July 2024 (UTC)

So, we're having a discussion on my talk page about SNOW close vs. Speedy close. Would you consider amending your close of the original AfD to state that it was a SNOW close and eliminate the word speedy? Feel free to join the discussion at my talk page. Jclemens (talk) 19:35, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

Thanks for bringing that to my attention - I've left a comment there and modified my close. —Ganesha811 (talk) 21:05, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (10:14, 16 July 2024)

Hello Ganesha811,

I hope you're doing well. I have a question about adding some information to a Wikipedia article. I've written a few lines about the historical & geopolitical events on Soviet occupation of Manchuria taking reference from "The Washington Post", reference link:https://www.washingtonpost.com/history/2020/08/14/vj-day-japan-surrenders-hirohito-ends-wwii/

Here is the text I want to add to the "Soviet occupation of Manchuria" section of the Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_occupation_of_Manchuria

"The combined impact of the Soviet invasion and the atomic bombings left Japan little room for maneuver. On August 15, 1945, Emperor Hirohito announced Japan's unconditional surrender to his people in a scratchy radio recording, marking the end of World War II."

Notably, I have no involvement with the creation of the report and no affiliation with The Washington Post, basically I am a content writer related to the geopolitical evets connected to history.

Could you please confirm that I can add these lines with the citation, ensuring it meets Wikipedia's guidelines for reliable sources and verifiability?

Thank you for your help!

Best regards, Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar --Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 10:14, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

You can, I would say. Just make sure it isn't redundant of any content already in the article. Please note that you don't have to ask me for permission to edit - the more important thing is that what you do on Wikipedia follows our policies and guidelines, the most important of which are summarized in the Five Pillars. Read that, follow the links to get more detail on any bit you don't understand, and you'll do fine! —Ganesha811 (talk) 13:12, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Exalted Vissy (02:11, 18 July 2024)

How long will it take for my edited wiki to appear live on the Internet? --Exalted Vissy (talk) 02:11, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Bear in mind that your user page should not be used to create an article about yourself per WP:UP#NOT. —Ganesha811 (talk) 02:30, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Latenightcole1 (17:59, 24 July 2024)

Can you guys help me make an article because the media companies are going to keep bullying me. I’ve done so much in my life. I do have a latte night show. --Latenightcole1 (talk) 17:59, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

I can't help with creating an article about you - that would be strongly discouraged by Wiipedia's policies and guidelines (see WP:COI). —Ganesha811 (talk) 20:25, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

Question from Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (15:51, 31 July 2024)

I am writing to seek your guidance regarding my article, "2024 July Massacare in Bangladesh". Link: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_July_Massacare_in_Bangladesh, Despite multiple edits and attempts to improve the article based on feedback, it continues to be flagged as an orphan article.

I would be grateful for your expertise in identifying potential linking opportunities or suggesting ways to integrate the article more effectively into the Wikipedia network.

Thank you for your time and assistance. --Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 15:51, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

An "orphan" article is one that has no other articles linking in to it. If you want to de-orphan it, find other articles which are relevant and add links to that one! Then the tag can be removed. —Ganesha811 (talk) 15:53, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

As you instructed, I have added the relevant links. Could you please take care of that? Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 18:37, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

"Orphan" is about adding links to *other* pages which link to the page you're working on. It means that there aren't any other Wikipedia articles which link to it. —Ganesha811 (talk) 19:17, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Sir, there are at least two articles in Wikipedia well connected to this ongoing event and as per your instruction, I added the links. You are kindly requested to give importance on it. Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 19:37, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Hello! It appears that the subject you are writing about is already well-covered at 2024 Bangladesh quota reform movement. I suggest you transfer your energies to that article and work to improve it. In addition, the article title you created is unfortunately misspelled ("massacare" instead of "massacre"). If you don't mind, I'll fix the title and create a redirect to the 2024 Bangladesh quota reform movement article. —Ganesha811 (talk) 19:46, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

It will be my pleasure if you kindly redirect it. Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 20:04, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Please fix the title also. Mohammed Shahidullah-Bin-Anwar (talk) 20:20, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Done! —Ganesha811 (talk) 21:31, 31 July 2024 (UTC)

Hi, I see you've contributed a lot to Alux, would you be interested in a taskforce on oral tradition? Kowal2701 (talk) 14:22, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

I'll contribute if I can, but I won't have time to take part in anything organized. Thanks for asking, though! Seems like a cool project. —Ganesha811 (talk) 17:26, 3 August 2024 (UTC)
