Wikipedia talk:Editor assistance/Requests

Dear editor: help! what on earth does this mean?

"Internet service providers frequently assign the root of a subdomain server to a directory within the master domain server root with a similar (but not necessarily identical) name"?. Example?

Editnotice change proposal

I just noticed that the editnotice at the top of the editing page refers content disputes to the dispute resolution noticeboard. That's a mistake: it ought to refer them to the Dispute Resolution page since many disputes could be better handled through additional talk page discussion or at Third Opinion or even through formal mediation. Are there any objections to making that change? Regards, TransporterMan (TALK) 15:23, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well spotted. That would be a useful change. My 2p. Simon Irondome (talk) 15:47, 10 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Can we add links to Refdesk and IRC chat?

It occurred to me that a great many requests for help on this page might be bettere handled in other channels:

* Request for information should go to Wikipedia:Reference_desk
* General assistance (e.g. how to edit, how to use a template, what kind of content is appropriate) might be better served by Wikipedia:Help desk/chat which is usually well staffed during most English speaking country's daylight hours.

We have this information in the wp:helpdesk but not the confusingly similar Wikipedia:Editor assistance/Requests? Would anybody object if I included this information in the header, possibly borrowing the same style from the Helpdesk? --Salimfadhley (talk) 16:50, 9 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why should anyone who is not a democrat fund Wikipedia?

Wikipedia now refuses to allow posting of the information on Biden when the data was legally obtained and provides legally collected information. Your bias is showing and I am ashamed I ever sent money for support. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.2.59.16 (talk) 22:40, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

This is a page to discuss the page Wikipedia:Editor assistance/Requests. How is your shame and lament related to that page? -- Hoary (talk) 23:13, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
