Question from DexterTSL (19:33, 2 May 2023)

Hi! How can I add business on Wikipedia? --DexterTSL (talk) 19:33, 2 May 2023 (UTC)

@DexterTSL, Can I ask are you going to create an article about a business which has no existing one. If so it is important that the article must be well and independently referenced. If you are involved in the business in real-life I highly recommend that you check the process that will assist you in writing an independent clear informative article that will not raise concerns about neutrality. I will also research some more. Edmund Patrick – confer 06:02, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

I recommend having a look through Wikipedia:FAQ/Organizations to see if it answers any of your questions Edmund Patrick – confer 06:55, 3 May 2023 (UTC)

im the owner of what is held at the relic --MONIQUEDIAZZONEBASE (talk) 05:42, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

MONIQUEDIAZZONEBASE, I believe that English is not your first language so asking questions might be difficult but I am sure we can sort a way. For example what are you talking about saying I am the owner of what is held at the relic? What relic and what help do you need. Edmund Patrick – confer 07:02, 5 June 2023 (UTC)

Question from WikiDwarf (01:33, 27 July 2023)

Hello I just recently created an account on Wikipedia and I created an article which I think it seems notable neither I don't know that it has been deleted multiple times due to Sockpuppet which I don't know and my created article got deleted and I have been accused of Sockpuppet with some blocked accounts which I don't even knew them. --WikiDwarf (talk) 01:33, 27 July 2023 (UTC)

Hello, @WikiDwarf although one of the editors is fairly new on wikipedia they have asked for you to be investigated for sockpuppetry, a process which is quite thorough and any results clearly shown. I recommend that you say what you wish and disprove any concerns others may have in the investigation and then await for the outcome. I have pinged @User:Fancy Refrigerator as a matter of courtsey.

Question from JanPampoen on Northern Cape Department of Social Development (16:45, 14 August 2023)

Hello, how must I go about to load the correct logo? --JanPampoen (talk) 16:45, 14 August 2023 (UTC)

I have checked the article and it seems to have a logo but if this is incorrect start a new section on the article at the talk page. Press the start a discussion link and say what you think or know is wrong and another editor will help you. I have added the article to my watchlist. Hope this helps.

Question from PcKernel (08:53, 3 February 2024)

Hey Edmund - I have never edited anything on Wikipedia, but I noticed a small change that should probably be made to a page. If I make an edit request, how can I tell if it went through? I hit a button that said 'publish' but I'm thinking it likely did not go through since I didn't add a new topic and I don't see it on the talk page. But if it is an unintuitive process or I don't know where to look, I don't want to post the same request twice. Thank you for your time! --PcKernel (talk) 08:53, 3 February 2024 (UTC)
