add pictures

[edit]

I cannot figure out how to add pictures to Milo Lemert's site. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Columbob (talkcontribs) 02:42, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Are you trying to upload a new picture or add an existing one? -AnonWikiEditor (talk) 02:43, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Columbob: In general, one can just input into the source "[[File:x|thumb|caption]]", where "x" is the name of the file you want to add, and where "caption" is the caption that you want to go along with the picture. If you are having trouble finding pictures, then you can search it on Wikimedia Commons (a quick google should do). Hope that helps! RileyBugzYell at me | Edits 02:59, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Franchise Policies

[edit]

Are there any policy pages, etc. regarding dealing new entries in a franchise? Like if a new movie or show is named a certain way it can be implicitly known to be a part of that franchise without needing some exec explicitly saying "this new entry branded the exact same way as all our other entries is also part of the same franchise."— Preceding unsigned comment added by AnonWikiEditor (talkcontribs)

WP:CRYSTALBALL, WP:No original research, and WP:GNG are usually relevant. It's not so much whether the entry is named a particular way or whether an exec says something, it's whether professionally published mainstream sources describe the entry as part of a series or that an exec has said something.

Murray Polner

Hello, @RobertPolner:, I'm not sure what your question regarding editing Wikipedia may be, but if you would like to see an article on Murray Polner please see WP:AFC, or go via the article wizard. You should develop a page in draftspace before submitting it for review. Please also see your first article and ensure that the subject is notable in the Wikipedia sense. Your username might suggest a connection with the subject and you may need to follow the guidelines at WP:COI. Please return here if you need further help. Good luck.

citation template

[edit]
Resolved

Pppery 23:27, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I submitted a template to cite a foreign law source that I need for a page I am creating. This template wasn't available and it follows a very specific citation format (Bluebook for Israel's HCJ) - its name Template:Cite IsrSC ... I did my best to follow similar templates, but I am not sure if I got everything right. I also need a little help with the documentation - since I closely followed other cite law templates as a guide, I am not certain if these are mandatory parameters or not. It is still in AFC review and I would appreciate if someone could help me go over it. Thanks, Seraphimsystem (talk) 19:48, 7 April 2017 (UTC) [reply]

The template I used for reference is Template:Cite court but there are certain significant differences that make a dedicated template a better option - especially the fact that the Court name and date are formatted together in parentheses where HCJ citations should start with the Court name.

Nm, I got it to work Seraphimsystem (talk) 22:46, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

2017–18 NBA season by team template

[edit]

Can you move the 2017–18 NBA season by team template from the talk page to the draft page for me please. 2600:8803:7A00:976A:28A8:5D6E:9558:57F6 (talk) 23:27, 7 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

None of the team pages listed on the draft template exist yet, so this looks like WP:TOOSOON. I see from the log that Template talk:2017–18 NBA season by team has been deleted twice within recent weeks. See also section #2017–18 NHL season template above, and previous similar requests from the same IP range such as at Wikipedia:Help desk/Archives/2017 April 3#2017-18 NHL and NBA templates and numerous others as listed here --David Biddulph (talk) 02:46, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
It's been 2 days since you last posted about this. Not til the season starts or is close to starting. Joseph2302 (talk) 07:14, 8 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
