Can't view photos in articles.

For some reason, in Internet Explorer, if I click on a photo, all that I see is a black screen, nothing else. This is has been happening the past few days, though I have not been on Wikipedia in a long time, so the issue may have been caused long ago. It does not happen in Firefox or Chrome, so it must be something with IE, but I do not know what. Any ideas?

I have Norton on all three browsers, so that doesn't seem to be it. I also reset cookies and temporary internet files and it did not fix it.

Refreshing the screen causes me to arrive back at the original article, as if I closed the expanded photo box, but clicking the photo produces no box, no "x" to click, nothing. Also, clicking the photo does not change the web address to the photo. Normally, clicking the photo will cause the address in the address bar to change, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatsworth_House changing to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chatsworth_House#/media/File:Chatsworth_Bridge.jpg. However, this does not happen in IE. If you can find a solution, let me know, perhaps also add a note to my talk page that a solution was found, so I do not forget to check it. Thank you for any help you can provide. Jonjames1986 (talk) 03:22, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

@Jonjames1986: The guys over at the Wikipedia:Reference desk/Computing may be able to help you better. You should tell them the version of IE you are using.-Arch dude (talk) 04:14, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

• Jonjames1986, update your IE version to the latest, then open Internet Explorer, click the tools icon in the top right-hand corner of the window, then select Internet Options -> Advanced tab -> Multimedia -> Settings -> Show Pictures and check the relevant box. Apply the changes; and then close and re-open the browser. This works most often. Lourdes 08:01, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

@Jonjames1986: Exactly the same happens to me in IE and no other tested browser. I have the latest IE version 11.285.17134.0 with Show Pictures enabled. It happens both logged in and out. It only happens in Media Viewer which is seen by IP's and users with "Enable Media Viewer" at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering. If you disable it then an image click goes directly to the file page instead. I haven't found other reports. I don't normally use IE and don't know when it started. PrimeHunter (talk) 09:34, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

@Jonjames1986 and PrimeHunter: Same happens in my IE (same version as PrimeHunter's). However, I'd like to add the problem is with switching to a new page, not with displaying it. When I go to Chatsworth House and click an image, the window becomes black and the address bar doesn't update – but when I copy the image destination URL https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chatsworth_Bridge.jpg and paste it as an address, the page displays normally. Also, when I follow a link like File:Chatsworth Bridge.jpg, it works as usual. --CiaPan (talk) 11:41, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Hi, I've been getting the same problem with viewing images on IE the last few days. I have not updated my Windows (specifically Windows 7 SP1) nor IE (version 11 0.9600.16428) recently, and I've been using Wikipedia regularly for a while now, so unless my IE is so horridly out of date or I'm forgetting something, I suspect the issue is not on my side (or the sides of anyone else here) but on Wikipedia's. Has something been updated about viewing images on Wikipedia recently?

I also have Waterfox (a fork of Firefox), and in that browser images on Wikipedia display perfectly fine when I click on them. --Monster Iestyn (talk) 21:41, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

Hey DefeatFraud. You may follow the directions here. However, you should note that a poorly written article is not normally a valid rationale for deletion. Rather, we generally delete articles because the subject does not meet Wikipedia's standards for notability, meaning that there are insufficient sources available for someone to, in principle, write a well sourced neutral article, even if that article has not yet been fully written.

I once belonged to the 4-H and I remember taking that pledge before every meeting, but your article doesn't show the full proper pledge as I can remember it; I am talking about the original pledge. Granted, it has been years and I can not remember exactly how it goes but I know for a fact the God was mentioned in the pledge. And I remember some of it saying that I pledge my head to greater thinking and my hand to greater service for God and my country. I never said anything about club or any such thing like that. Why did an original Christian organization drop God from their pledge.? This is sick and why do you not support the real and whole truth about the original pledge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bobbyr55 (talk • contribs) 21:04, 21 September 2018 (UTC)

In editing articles, I often want to move text from one place to another in the article. Frequently, however, I am unable to cut and paste to move material. The text I want to move stays in the same place and can't be moved to where I want it to be. This doesn't happen always, but most of the time. Is this a problem with the editing software?

Editor? I use Microsoft Word if that's what you mean. Just trying to edit right now, cut and paste is working okay -- but it hasn't worked consistently for several weeks. What happens is that I cut a section of text and attempt to paste it somewhere else, and it reappears where I just cut it -- but not where I want it to be. If you haven't run into this problem before, perhaps it's not a wikipedia problem, but a glitch in my computer. What do you think? Thanks for your assistance.

StarKid Productions is nothing more than a shameless promotion for some community theatre and all their plays and non-notable actors. Someone who knows what to do with an article like this should do it. I have no idea because it would involve gutting a lot of it.

I didn't say the subject isn't notable. I said it was being used for shameless promotion and loaded with information that had no business being in an encylopedia. Orangemike apparently agrees with me because he already removed over 18,000 bytes of junk content; 17,000 of it with the edit summary: "removing fancruft more suited for subject's own website." He also added a template at the top about the bad sources, with an edit summary: "there is almost nothing in here from reliable sources; it's mostly YouTube links and worse." The two other top templates from other editors are about how the article is written like an advertisement and relies on too many primary sources.

This is an editing dispute that you should be discussing on the United States women's national basketball team talk page. You (and an IP editor that is also you?) created a history section and added content over a nine hour period today. It looks like an administrator permanently removed all of the content you added during the first seven hours due to copyright violations, and you were warned about it on your talk page. Then you continuted editing after that for about two more hours. 2605:A000:FFC0:D8:3059:8016:5847:3E43 (talk) 19:08, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Upon further review, it appears that most of the history content you added so far (that wasn't previously purged) was essentially copy and pasted from Katherine Washington.

The page has been submitted and declined three times, and each time, the reasons were given. The last edit to the page (on August 25) removed the submittals and reasons, but did not fix the underlying problems, and the page has not been resubmitted. I suggest you check the page history to see all of this. If you or anyone in your organization intends to edit, please read and heed WP:PAID. We are happy to work with you if you adhere to our policies. The page gives the appearance of being created and developed by someone with a conflict of interest (WP:COI). That's quite alright as long as the COI is declared. Our "articles for creation" queue is backlogged, and all reviewers are volunteers who take on whatever the heck jobs attract their attention. Resubmitting a page that has been declined without first making a serious attempt to address the objections is likely to cause reviewers to ignore the article. -Arch dude (talk) 01:08, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello, Publishthisprofile123. It might help you to understand how to work with Wikipedia if I point out a couple of misconceptions that I think are inherent in the words you use. Please understand that your client does not "have a Wikipedia page": nobody in the world has a Wikipedia page. Wikipedia has articles about many subjects - at present it has a draft article about your client. It also does not publish profiles of anybody - it publishes articles. If the draft article about your client is in time accepted, it still won't be his article: he and his associates will have no control over the contents (though he, and you, will be welcome to make suggestions for improving it), and the bulk of its content should be based not on what he says or does, still less on what he want to have written, but on what people who have no connection with him have chosen to publish about him, whether approving or critical. My points may seem picky, but as I say, I think it will help you avoid frustration to take them on board. --ColinFine (talk) 08:46, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello. I am a writer/editor. Earlier this month, I edited the biography of a friend of many years - Christopher Mason Powell. To this end, I created an account named after him and created for him, with the agreement that I would turn it over to him after I submitted the article on Wikipedia for publishing consideration.

The first article submission was deleted; it was not referenced well. I discovered this I learned that Wikipedia accounts couldn’t be shared. My violation of this policy was innocent and I would like to remedy this if possible without Chris losing the ability to have the Christopher Masan Powell name for him. So my need for help is two-fold. First, I would like to create a new account for myself. Can this be done in a way that we don't risk losing the name? Second, I would like to submit the revised, referenced, article for consideration. Chris already appears in other Wikipedia articles on musician pages and has therefore been validated as a musician, songwriter, and producer, so I gather if there are no policy violations the article is publishable. What is the best way to represent the article? ```` — Preceding unsigned comment added by Christopher Mason Powell (talk • contribs) 03:04, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

If Christopher Mason Powell is noteworthy, then somebody who doesn't happen to know him will eventually create an article about him.

Done.

The obvious way to have done it, Sister B, was to go to the article for Shân Legge-Bourke via the name in the above list, which was already a wikilink to it, copy an "â" from that article, and paste it into the list in place of the erroneous "a".

The easier way would have been to place the cursor in the section's edit window where the "â" was required, go to the bottom of the window and click the "insert" box's open arrow "∨", select "Latin" from the drop-down list, and click the "â" box which would have inserted an â where the cursor was.

This second method, of course, also works for the plethora of other accented letters, symbols, etc., etc. that are available via those drop-down arrays.

I actually used the first method, in order to confirm the spelling in the relevant article, since you didn't actually say in your request above above what accent was needed. {The poster formerly known as 87.81.230.195}

Hi,

According to Wikipedia, Freemake Video Converter, version 4.0.4.0 was the first to have a watermark logo at the end of videos lasting 5 mins or over.

Well, I tried an earlier version, 4.0.3.4 and this ALSO HAS the Watermark Logo!

My goal is to find the version produced immediately BEFORE the watermark Logo first appeared, ie, one whichaa DOES NOT have the watermark Logo?

As I say, Wikipedia believed version 4.0.4.0 was the first time the Watermark Logo was introduced, but it clearly was not! Does anyone know the true answer to this, please?

Hello, I hope this is the right place to post. I am writing an article for a noteworthy photograph (Draft:A Jewish boy surrenders in Warsaw) and the identity of its subject is unknown. Therefore there are a bunch of fair use images I'd like to add for the various people who might be the boy in the photo, for readers to compare. I know that I can't upload the images until I mainspace the article, but I'm not sure what the correct fair use tagging is. One of the images has been tagged and posted to Tsvi C. Nussbaum (one of the possibilities). Could someone tell me if the fair use tagging I used there is correct for this purpose? Thanks in advance! Catrìona (talk) 07:22, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

I fail to see how attaching images of other boys, so that the readers may guess which one of them (if any) this boy is, is the job of an encyclopedia. Anyway, it seems an impossible task, as the resolution (in the original, pre-digital sense) of this photo is so low. (A good way to judge whether people in photos are the same is to compare their ears. In this photo, one ear is little more than a mere smudge; the other isn't visible at all.)

Ideally, we'd say that WP should say that the boy was whoever reliable sources say he was, "reliable sources" being newspapers, etc. The problem is that on slow news days, ostensibly reliable newspapers have a habit of uncritically quoting this or that person who insists that they or their brother/uncle/whatever was the photographed person. This accounts for a lot of the content of, say, V-J Day in Times Square (and a lot of dreary argufying about it).

There are plenty of other additions that would be worthwhile. Where's the evidence that this is "The best-known photograph taken during the Warsaw Ghetto uprising"? Aside from its publication [if that's the right word] in Es gibt keinen jüdischen Wohnbezirk in Warschau mehr!, did it have any other Nazi use? How has it been republished and/or discussed after the fall of Nazism? Do we know anything about the photographer? And more. It's unlikely that any of these needs images. -- Hoary (talk) 10:05, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Thanks for your help. The problem is that despite being considered one of the best known images of World War II and the Holocaust (it was selected as one of Time Magazine's 100 photographs of all time [2] and said to represent all 6 million Jewish Holocaust victims[3]; even to the point of being extensively discussed by Holocaust deniers [4]), and two books having been written about the photograph, no definite identification of the boy has been made. The photographer is also not known for certain. Obviously the draft needs a lot of work, but the identity of the boy is something that is heavily discussed in the relevant literature. If fair use images are not appropriate to include in that discussion, I will not add them. Catrìona (talk) 10:49, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

I wrote my (perhaps somewhat crabby) comment above before looking at the article Tsvi C. Nussbaum. I there got the impression that there were three entire books about, or somehow based on, the photo. And also that Nussbaum didn't seem to have any notability (in en:WP terms) aside from the article. So even before you wrote your additional comment, I was going to return here to say: (i) yes an article seemed most worthwhile; (ii) such an article would render the article on Nussbaum unsustainable.

All I know about Nussbaum is what I read in that WP article. You may very well know more. But if (i) there's little or nothing more to know and (ii) the article you propose is successful, then I predict that the article on Nussbaum will be turned into a mere redirect. As it has an edit history, this seems a pity.

How about bringing into your draft everything from the article on Nussbaum that seems useful, expanding the draft until it's primarily about the photograph, replacing the content of the Nussbaum article with your draft, and then renaming ("moving") the article?

If these books and (denialist stuff aside) the sources you mention above discuss the identity of the boy, then that would indeed seem to be a good reason to bring in photographs of the contenders. I suppose that Template:Non-free use rationale would cover it. You'd need to answer, among others, "How does the media contribute significantly to the article(s) in which it is used?" This may be a lot easier to answer convincingly once the article is well developed: a photo of a person will seem a lot more appropriate (and less like mere decoration) once the description of that person's identity and claims to being the boy photographed are carefully done. -- Hoary (talk) 11:20, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

Hoary's main point is that Tsvi C. Nussbaum is notable only for the photograph, so there should be only one article. I agree, and that's our guideline (WP:1E). The easiest way to do this is probably to massively rework the existing article to insert information from your draft, and then rename ("move") it to your new name. This preserves the article history without a lot of hassle. You might want to discuss your approach, whatever it is, on the talk page of that article. "Fair use" rationales will then become easier after the article in in place. -Arch dude (talk) 15:30, 23 September 2018 (UTC)

I would like to update and add photos to the Urmetazoan page, but should probably talk to someone first. They are not hypothetical, but the fossils are unlike anything seen to date. Complete Body Fossils (CBF's) are real, but I am the first to discover their existence, and I am having trouble finding an expert with an open mind. These are not a pile of bones, these are complete bodies that have survived the fossilization process. Most of the fossils have been altered beyond a true ID, but several were lucky enough to survive the +/- 500 million years until I found them on family property up in Montana. If it works out that I can update the Urme page, I have other important fossils that will make your site a go-to spot for fossils hunters interested in Cambrian and Pre-Cambrian fossils, and I have a very special turtle fossil in it's shell, that: A. is over 300 million years old, and B. shows how the turtle got it's shell.

So what's written

Ref: Deebz270 (talk) 17:01, 22 March 2018 (UTC) 21/03/18

In logging in, to edit an unrelated segment to the above reference, I noted my notifications and in particular the discussion that followed my criticism of the first sentence within the Climate Change article. My criticism was, that the first sentence was misleading. Climate Change and Global Warming are two totally different phrases, both scientifically and literally.

One person agreed with my criticism. One other agreed in principle, but stated that this was not what Wikipedia was about. The third comment essentially asked me to furnish NEW evidence, in attempt to 'change their minds'...

Who are 'they' that deem I must furnish proof? It is OBVIOUS to anyone with any academic ability that my criticism is perfectly sound. I stand by that criticism and note that it has not been changed. However, how in all this confusing rigmarole of wiki editing, does one even offer a counter to those comments, where there seems no facility to reply?

This is one reason why I personally find wikipedia so 'flippant' in many respects. I tend to view wiki as an online encylopedia, where accuracy is axiomatic. If I am wrong in that assumption, then maybe I should just view wiki as a coffee table magazine.

The remarks of one of the contributing comments, was that MSM view climate change and global warming as the same thing and thus so should wikipedia. Which was exactly the thrust of my argument to the contrary. If wikipedia is to be taken seriously as an online encyclopedia or at least a source for accurate educational text, then this sentence should be changed to reflect that.

I reiterate, Climate Change/shift is the resultant phenomenon of Global Warming, itself driven by either natural or anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Confusion, especially amongst the climate change denying public is evident in many social media comments and main stream media. Where people mistake the two phrases, often disparagingly stating that once they called it global warming, now they call it climate change. In scientific terms, this has never been the case.

I have, in the past donated to wikipedia. I refrain from doing so now, simply because I see inaccuracies, that my 'peers' appear blind to and refuse to correct. So much for this platform being for the masses, where anyone can edit or correct any content within its data references.

I wish to counter these comments on my criticism of that article, but as I said above, I see no facility to do so.

Kind (but frustrated) regards

@Deebz270: we have a robust and well-documented method for reaching consensus. It starts with assuming good faith and attempting to reach consensus, initially by discussing things on the article's talk page, sometimes as part of the bold-revert-discuss cycle. Only if you cannot reach consensus on the talk page, move on to the next steps of dispute resolution. This help desk is the place to ask about this process as you did, but not the place to continue the discussion, because discussions here disappear quickly due to high volume. -Arch dude (talk) 01:46, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

@Deebz270: your criticism was taken seriously, but the discussion seemed to peter out without resulting in a change. There is no "they" at Wikipedia; editors are just volunteers like you and me. I've made a small change to the wording in the article Global warming. If this sticks, does it adequately address your concerns? If I get reverted then we will start a new discussion on the talk page. That's how Wikipedia works. Dbfirs 07:22, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

There are separate articles for Disney Channel (Latin America) and Disney Channel (Brazil), even though both are operated by The Walt Disney Company Latin America, air mostly the same shows, and the episodes for the shows that they share always premiere on the same day on all feeds (Brazil, Mexico, Center and South).

The article for Cartoon Network (Latin America) covers the multiple Spanish, Portuguese and English feeds for the channel. The number of shows aired differs even between the Spanish-language feeds (Mexico, North, Chile/Peru/Ecuador/Bolivia, Southern Cone), as only the Chile feed has 31 Minutos and only the North feed has Mr. Trance.

Hi. Aipu360. The editor explained why he deleted parts of the article. You can raise the issue at the article's talk page and discuss it with him. Personally, I think that the edit (if you're talking about the one made by Whpq) is valid and it made the article more readable and, indeed, less like a resume. If you want to include important details from the deleted content, you might want to write it in prose and cite references, accordingly. Thanks. Darwin Naz (talk) 23:10, 24 September 2018 (UTC)

@Renecarayol: If you are not Rene Carayol, you will need to change your username, following the instructions at WP:CHU. You cannot use his name as your username unless you are him. As you are his representative, you will need to review the conflict of interest policy at WP:COI and the paid editing policy at WP:PAID(the latter is mandatory per Wikipedia's Terms of Use for paid editors). It appears to me that you have already made the change, but in the future you should refrain from editing the article directly, instead making edit requests on the article talk page. 331dot (talk) 10:20, 25 September 2018 (UTC)

pset about after all the things about Bill Cosby on his title it says convicted sex offender? Really even Wikipedia would destroy his character even more.. But I don't see Ben roethlisberger pro quarterback raped a girl on his professional title or Brandy Norwood convicted murderer by vehicular homicide singer actress. You but it on bill Cosby like it was a profession .there are several other examples that I could give you but I truly believe that is despicable. Now he is dead wrong and his personal matters are his own. But you really could have done that better..
