@Leuchar55: There's a great tool called the Short Description Helper that you can use for this. The page linked there has a lot of info, but the basic idea is that you enable it in your preferences and then can edit/add short descriptions. As an aside, the Willy Puchner does have a short description: "Austrian photographer, artist, painter and author". Let me know if you have any other questions!

how do I add an image to a table of contents, like List of governors of Nevada? --MikoDT (talk) 16:40, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@MikoDT: I'm not sure exactly what you mean by a Table of Contents - If you're referring to the infobox, you can add an image by adding a filename to the |image= parameter. If you mean something like the images in the long table on the List of governors of Nevada article, you can use [[File:FILENAME]] to add an image to a table (or anywhere else on an article). I'm not super clear on what you're asking, so if you have additional questions just let me know! AviationFreak💬 22:27, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I have somehow deleted the Conflict of Interest on my profile and need to add it back on but have no idea how to do it. Please can you help? --RajiKL (talk) 13:37, 25 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello, I made a move request recently and I'm pretty sure it qualifies for approval as there are two users in support of it and non against. The 7-day listing period has elapsed but the request was moved to WP:RMB instead of being resolved. Is there any way I can notify admins of it? --Damian Lew (talk) 18:26, 24 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Damian Lew: As this falls under a few of the contentious topics on Wikipedia, I think it might be prudent to wait a bit more before closing a discussion; if there were, say, 10 unopposed supporting users at this point then I'd be well-convinced of consensus, but at this point there's no rush. In perhaps a few weeks, if the discussion has not been closed, I believe the closure requests page would be the right place to ask. Thanks for your contributions thus far, and thanks for reaching out - article moves and naming conventions aren't my strong suits by any means, but I'm always happy to help!

I know you're not an expert in this regard, but seeing that this is a time consuming process, is there a way to move an article to a specific title that is currently being used as a redirect without making a request? For obviously less contentious topics. Many thanks Damian Lew (talk) 02:29, 25 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I believe the most relevant information is in this section; it appears that non-admins have the technical ability "move over a redirect" with only a single line of page history. Anything more than that would seem to require a technical request. In the past, I've effectively "moved" pages that only had me in the edit history by copy-pasting the page's contents over a redirect with nontrivial edit history (and then requesting speedy deletion under criterion G7), but this is probably not best practice, especially if the page to be moved has any substantial editing history.

Hi there, last year you added a map to the Paradise Airlines Flight 901A article that you'd created to show the flight path, using the CAB report as a source. I've been trying to wrap up the American Airlines Flight 320 article for a FA Nomination, and it could benefit from a similar map, showing the approach to LaGuardia over the East River. Any interest in trying to take on that kind of project again? Appendix B of the CAB report (page 27 of the PDF here) has a drawing, but it's not clear enough to try to integrate directly into the article. Thanks!

Hi RecycledPixels - thanks for reaching out! I'm always excited about this kind of work, but at the moment I'm unfortunately going to have to turn you down. This is mainly due to the fact that I can't find a good way to export an SVG of the NYC area that doesn't result in a massive file, causing Inkscape to become unusable for editing it. Obviously the on-ground details aren't a necessary part of this map, but I don't see an easy way to just export the land shapefiles with perhaps some light ground detail for context. This is made less solvable (for me) by the fact that I just started a new internship and haven't had much time for WP in general. If you're in a pinch for a map, putting a red line on a PNG export of the area from OpenStreetMaps would always work. Again, thanks for contacting me - this particular article is a tricky one, but if you have a need for similar maps in the future, I just might be able to help out. Best of luck!

@Humberto Tasso Painter: Good question! There is a page here with a detailed description of the steps to uploading an image, with links to simplified versions of the page for newcomers at the top. Let me know if you have any questions along the way! AviationFreak💬 01:48, 16 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
