Concerning Draft:Mirage Game Studios[edit]
Hello there. I have noticed that you drafted the article of the game developer and submitted it for approval, but was rejected for lack of notability; would it be better to make it a redirect to THQ Nordic instead? It might be justified enough to be used on a few articles regarding its games due to its low but not abysmal notability. I look forward to seeing your opinion on this.

- @MimirIsSmart you sent this to the reviewer rather than the creator as you appear to have intended. Regards KylieTastic (talk) 08:34, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- Ah my apologies MimirIsSmart (talk) 10:04, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
Image question[edit]
Do you ever come across images like this one that are mistakenly identified as "own work"? This image appears to me to be from an old book. Do we know which one? Who is tha man pictured? Any suggestions on how to handle? I don't do much on Commons. Thanks. FloridaArmy (talk) 23:39, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
- Hi FloridaArmy, unfortunately it happens a lot, probably for a variety of reasons. The editor is blocked here and I assume the removed copyvio text on Mosaic Templars Cultural Center was from the same source. I'm guessing the source they used was https://jimcrowmuseum.ferris.edu/question/2018/march.htm so that would make it John E. Bush (Mosaic Templars of America). I've flagged the image on commons. Possible source before that was from this collection. The image could well be 'free' but unfortunately there is no information to judge. Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 08:32, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
- @FloridaArmy a source has been found so likely the image will now be kept. KylieTastic (talk) 13:57, 23 May 2024 (UTC)

Latest tech news from the Wikimedia technical community. Please tell other users about these changes. Not all changes will affect you. Translations are available.
Recent changes
- Several bugs related to the latest updates to the UploadWizard on Wikimedia Commons have been fixed. For more information, see T365107 and T365119.
- In March 2024 a new addPortlet API was added to allow gadgets to create new portlets (menus) in the skin. In certain skins this can be used to create dropdowns. Gadget developers are invited to try it and give feedback.
- Some CSS in the Minerva skin has been removed to enable easier community configuration. Interface editors should check the rendering on mobile devices for aspects related to the classes:
.collapsible
,.multicol
,.reflist
,.coordinates
,.topicon
. Further details are available on replacement CSS if it is needed.
Changes later this week
- The new version of MediaWiki will be on test wikis and MediaWiki.org from 28 May. It will be on non-Wikipedia wikis and some Wikipedias from 29 May. It will be on all wikis from 30 May (calendar). [1][2]
- When you visit a wiki where you don't yet have a local account, local rules such as edit filters can sometimes prevent your account from being created. Starting this week, MediaWiki takes your global rights into account when evaluating whether you can override such local rules. [3]
