Hey, I was going to come on today and recommend that, I unfortunately must go deal with several issues in both my personal and professional life, therefore I am ceasing all of my training on wikipedia. I deeply apologize for wasting your time. Toast (talk) 13:20, 27 February 2023 (UTC)

Article rewrite

Hi.

I selected an article to improve to help develop my editing abilities. I chose one that couldn't really be made worse and this isUser:Lukewarmbeer/sandboxs what I have come up with. If you can cast an eye over it and see :

If I have made any drastic errors?

What I should do about the copyright on the images - particularly this one https://pin.it/7tJ8teY which I would like to use. The others I think are in Commons so I can use?

What more should I include in the Bibliography or is that enough for now?

Thanks for your time (if you have any :) ).

Regards

@Lukewarmbeer, I have not noticed anything immediately wrong with your rewrite. You can use any photo in the commons if you need to unless the picture you want to use has a license for being used elsewhere. I would take a look at any GA+ rated article and use it as an example.

Many thanks for the feedback. Lukewarmbeer (talk) 16:56, 8 March 2023 (UTC)

Wordpress

Hi. I'm hoping you can help broaden my knowledge here.

If you have a look at my talk page you will see a message from a user re their edits to Wordpress.

Can you give me and them some guidance as to the 'Tweet' citations used and also the functionality of how he has added them.

Many thanks Lukewarmbeer (talk) 11:43, 11 March 2023 (UTC)

@Lukewarmbeer, I have looked at the edit in question and have found that it works for me, so any issue accessing it is likely client-side for you. Furthermore, the information in the tweet meets the criteria of WP:TWEET. I recommend allowing the IP user to redo that edit, or to simply revert it yourself.
