Welcome to Ferien's talk page. I will generally respond here to comments that are posted here, rather than replying via your talk page (or the article's talk page, if you are writing to me here about an article), so you may want to watch this page until you are responded to, or let me know where specifically you'd prefer the reply. I will try to WP:PING you as well. Conversely if you are replying to something I've said on another talk page, reply there and include {{ping|Ferien}} to alert me.

This user is a regular and doesn't mind if you template him.

Question from Iamqamrulhoda (18:32, 19 September 2024)

I want to write one biography --Iamqamrulhoda (talk) 18:32, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Iamqamrulhoda, welcome to Wikipedia! If you are interested in writing an article, please head to the article wizard. If you need any more assistance, please let me know. Thanks! --Ferien (talk) 15:25, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Sha.whitehead on Electric fence (12:29, 23 September 2024)

Hi!! I need to edit a page with an update and add the relevant reference, how do i do that? --Sha.whitehead (talk) 12:29, 23 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Sha.whitehead, apologies for my slow response. In visual editor, you can simply click the "Cite" button, between the link and bullet point buttons, and then add the URL of your reference in to automatically create a reference. If you need any more help, do let me know. Thanks! :) --Ferien (talk) 15:26, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Jobankaz (18:31, 30 September 2024)

Hi - I have a question about the user sandbox. When I create the sandbox page to work on an article. In order to save my work to the sandbox, do I select the "publish page' button. Does that simply save my work? If I want to work on a couple articles at the same time in the sandbox, do I just create a sandbox1, sandbox2. I guess I want to make sure it stays in the sandbox and doesn't accidentally go out for review. Thanks for your help. Adrana --Jobankaz (talk) 18:31, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks in advance. I figured out how it works now. It is fine- You can disregard this. Thanks Jobankaz (talk) 19:03, 30 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Jobankaz, yep, apologies for the slow response, but you can create as many user subpages as you like if you're working on multiple articles at once. You can use sandbox1, sandbox2, but you can also use the article name, like User:Ferien/Example, if you like, it's up to you :) Let me know if you need any more help. Thanks! --Ferien (talk) 15:28, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How do I save Wikipedia pages to have offline?

I am using a computer...I have this app on my kindle, but i can't figure out to save the pages on my computer. I thought that I just had to make an account on Wikipedia in order to do that, yet, it still doesn't work. HippieGirl09 (talk) 13:22, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi HippieGirl09, welcome to Wikipedia. There's no offline Wikipedia function within Wikipedia, however, you can use apps like Kiwix - this is available on desktop and mobile. There are a number of other applications you can use to do this, that are listed at Wikipedia:Database download#Offline Wikipedia readers. I hope this is useful to you. Please don't hesitate to ask if you would like any more help. Thanks! --Ferien (talk) 15:30, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Dominus Irae on Royal Rumble match (17:41, 14 October 2024)

R-Truth entered in the 2024 women's royal rumble match. Can you check? --Dominus Irae (talk) 17:41, 14 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry Dominus Irae, I'm a bit confused what you're asking me to check? --Ferien (talk) 15:31, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A Wiki article regarding the Royal Rumble. In the Royal Rumble 2024, R-Truth entered the women's royal rumble. Can you check that part and edit the table which shows men entering the women's royal rumble accordingly? Dominus Irae (talk) 11:32, 22 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Enid Kurzweil Sterling (14:30, 15 October 2024)

Hello, It appears that I have been blocked and am not allowed to make an edit to my brother's "Ray Kurzweil" Wikipedia page. I am Ray Kurzweil's sister and I am attempting to correct the information about me. At the end of the section - Early life - It says "He has one sibling, Enid". I am attempting to add the following words "Kurzweil Sterling who is a Latin ballroom dance competitor and lives in Paris, France." Why is it such an offense to the policy that I am more than just someone who has a first name? My father was allowed to be a concert pianist, my mother was allowed to be an artist, Ray's wife is allowed to be a psychologist, his children are allowed to have professions. I want it to say - "He has one sibling, Enid Kurzweil Sterling who is a Latin ballroom dance competitor and lives in Paris, France." --Enid Kurzweil Sterling (talk) 14:30, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Luca 102 on Sick of Being Lonely (21:53, 29 October 2024)

Hi, I have a question: how do you add segments on different pages? What I mean is how do I add a different section that I can open up like references or Career or stuff like that. --Luca 102 (talk) 21:53, 29 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Luca 102, you can start a new section by using the wikicode == Example section ==. If you add another =, for example === Example subsection ===, it becomes a subsection of that section, and you can keep adding more =s on the beginning and end to have subsections of those subsections. I hope this helps, feel free to ask me if you need any more help. Thanks! --Ferien (talk) 22:27, 1 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks a lot! Luca 102 (talk) 17:50, 2 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from Mirvanamilano (10:00, 7 November 2024)

Good morning. Mirvana is an Italian brand, and we want to publish about Mirvana on Wikipedia. How is this possible, please? I don't want to do anything that's against the rules, but I do know that brands are allowed over here, and I do want to write about ours. It's https://lemirvana.com (find us on IG by @mirvanamilano ) - Also a second question, if we want to publish an article about the founder? - she's doing many different businesses and she wants to be found online with all the information she wants to share, not randomly what different publications would post, and Wikipedia is the best place for this. Please let me know for both. Thank you! --Mirvanamilano (talk) 10:00, 7 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Question from MOWM (22:53, 11 November 2024)

Hi Ferien,

I wanted to check in on the Sandbox entry I made for Bryan Wells. I tried to best mimic the approved pages from his main collaborator, the late Ron Miller to ensure the content was direct, sourced, and hit a high standard. I'm curious about what kind of time frame it takes to approve pages. --MOWM (talk) 22:53, 11 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
