Editing "top"
I've been here a few years and have never figured out how editors manage to edit the lede as a section "top". How do you do that? SlightSmile 23:48, 28 April 2017 (UTC)
- All I remember was that long ago—more than ten years ago, they made this possible, but you had to change something in your settings to enable it. Don't know if that's still how it works. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Unschool 13:43, 29 April 2017 (UTC)
- Hey I've always wondered this too. You can write the {{Help}} template on your talk page, and an experienced editor will be able to assist. Vaselineeeeeeee★★★ 19:26, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
- Ya know one day I might just do that. SlightSmile 19:43, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
- Do you wanna do it now, I don't see why it needs to wait. Or I'll copy this to my talk page and ask someone there. I mean editing "top" can be very useful if it lets you edit only the lead, especially if it's on larger articles that may take longer to load the whole thing. Thanks.

Sandwiching text between images and infoboxes
Hi, I'm not sure if you're aware of MOS:SANDWICH, but your edits to Tegenaria domestica resulted in classic sandwiching all over the article. Alternate left and right placement looks good, but only works when the sections are long enough so that the images are vertically far enough away from each other.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Haji Lane, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Malay (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Place Names need Qualifiers
|
---|
Sorry, do not agree. Most people in the western english world are beholden to social media - social media creates a false view of the world on almost everything. Perth Australia, along with other absurdities - denies accurate geographic knowledge. For a start the argument that created 'perth' as the prime location without qualifier was infested with those editors who dont like qualifiers. I was fortunate to have a relative who had lived in Ontario a very very long time ago, who never stated the name of a place without qualifying where - on the basis that there were more places with ambiguity than, no as many as, the late frank zappa alluded to when utilising the place names for his dislike of urban us culture all those decades ago... (how many springfields in the us say?). I think that place and country is wrong. For some very good reasons. Some mostly former editors of wikipedia thought that google hits was enough to determine primacy. I say may they live in Ontario and try living amongst the place names that require qualification as a matter of life or death perhaps. I like qualifiers, for a whole range of reasons. Please never assume that there is a collective geographical 'good sense' amongst fellow wikipedians. Tasmania has been designated as a separate country by wise editors. I rest my case. Thanks for your comments. I beg to disagree. JarrahTree 01:15, 19 May 2018 (UTC)

Angled cross listed at Redirects for discussion
An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Angled cross. Since you had some involvement with the Angled cross redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion if you have not already done so. — Godsy (TALKCONT) 08:53, 24 June 2018 (UTC)
Hello
I see post from you that is not written to me. But I have possible answer.

Saddle shoe
Here is the consensus I'm referring to. Please don't defend lists of random pop culture "sightings." They're junk. 24.7.14.87 (talk) 22:10, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
- That wall of words does not constitute consensus. Take it to talk page and get consensus there. I don't know why you're so worried about this. It's a nice clean section and as one editor pointed out it gives the readers a perspective about saddle shoes. There's lots of ways you can make a contribution without being confrontational. I look forward to seeing your good work here. SlightSmile 22:44, 3 October 2018 (UTC)
- RFCs are a component of Wikipedia's dispute resolution system and they most certainly do represent editor consensus. WP:CONDD: "Be familiar with policies, guidelines and past discussions." So you can't just dismiss that wall of text; at least read the closing decision at the top of the page. If you're going to urge discussion then I suggest that you not revert the article again without participating in such. I use Wikipedia's search box to find articles needing trivia cleanup and then edit them. This is one article I found. 24.7.14.87 (talk) 04:38, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
- Hi, 24.7.14.87. I do hope we can work this out. I must say, by your edits, you certainly do not like those sections. If there is an RfC that broadly prohibits them, please do point it out over at the saddle shoe talk page. Best, Anna Frodesiak (talk) 05:40, 6 October 2018 (UTC)
