Question from Mr. Eisenstein (17:38, 14 February 2025)

Is there a way to claim old edits I made anonymously? --Mr. Eisenstein (talk) 17:38, 14 February 2025 (UTC)

@Mr. Eisenstein: The way that you did it on your user page is really the best way to do it. There's no way to "merge" contributions between accounts due to technical limitations. Cheers, and let me know if you have any further questions! ‍Relativity ⚡️ 01:12, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Thank you today for Boot Monument, "about a strange monument located in Saratoga National Historical Park, New York. It is shaped like a boot. However, the monument's honoree is never mentioned on the monument because his name was Benedict Arnold, someone who betrayed the Continental army to the British army."! - Your first, I understand, - enjoy the day! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:23, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Thank you so much! ‍Relativity ⚡️ 18:06, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

Question from Thayer Rex (02:07, 20 February 2025)

Hey I added truthful sourced comments to a page on Chris Kluwe and it keeps getting removed. It’s a well known story that he admits tp and as a gay man I think it should be in any article relating to Kluwe. --Thayer Rex (talk) 02:07, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

@Thayer Rex: Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! We function on verifiability, not truth, which means that the information that makes it into Wikipedia articles is based off of what reliable, independent sources say. In your edits to the article, you added that information but didn't provide a source even though you said to look it up, which is not what we do. You have to provide a direct link (see Help:Referencing for beginners for how to do this). Furthermore, your edit violated the Biographies of Living Persons Policy, which states that "Contentious material about living persons that is unsourced or poorly sourced—whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable—must be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion". If you think that your edit should be in the article, you will need to have reliable sources that talk about this, and you'll need to reword your edit to fit with our neutral, encyclopedic tone. Then you should start a discussion on the article's talk page (where WP:BLP still applies) about it, and uninvolved editors will weigh in on it. Please do not re-add your edit as-is to the article, as you will find yourself in trouble. If you need help with bringing this up to the talk page, I'll be happy to help!

Question from Boskovicdd (13:53, 20 February 2025)

Hello, I'm trying to make a wikipedia article about my uncle who is an innovator and an academic. When I try posting his photo it keeps getting taken down with the explanation it lacks exif data and does not contribute to wikipedia. I would like to know how i can keep it uploaded so that I can finish the draft and submit it for review. I also wanted to ask if diplomas and information about schooling needs to have a reference, as well as what else has to have a reference. Thank you in advance --Boskovicdd (talk) 13:53, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

@Boskovicdd: Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! The issue you're describing is currently taking place on Wikimedia Commons, which is technically not Wikipedia but one of our sister projects, so you may get a more accurate answer at their help desk. That being said, your picture was deleted for the first and time because it appeared to be for personal use and not for any educational reason (see here for more details), and was deleted for the second time because it was a copyright violation (see here for more details). I don't know too much about EXIF data, and after I read this page, I'm not sure why it's a problem, but I'm not that experienced in Commons. However, if you want to make sure that your picture is able to be uploaded, you should create the article about your uncle first by going through the steps at your first article carefully, and you will have to declare a conflict-of-interest, which you haven't done yet. Then, only if the article is accepted, can you upload a picture you took yourself (not a picture already online) to Wikimedia Commons. Any further questions about Wikimedia Commons should probably go to their help desk, as I'm not that experienced there and might not be able to help you perfectly, but if you need any help with anything else on Wikipedia, such as working on your draft, I'll be happy to help!
