On 3 February 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Eritha, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that a Bronze Age priestess named Eritha was the focus of the first recorded legal dispute in Europe? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Eritha (2nd nomination). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Eritha), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hello How do I correct a flaw I observed on a wikipedia page? --Professor Academic (talk) 17:05, 13 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello -- the short answer is to click the "edit" button and crack on.
- The slightly longer answer depends on what sort of flaw it is. If it's a typo, or another error that can be fixed without any possibility of dispute, it's usually best to just go ahead and change it (see WP:BEBOLD). If, however, it's something more contentious, like an error of fact, or (even greyer) a question of whether the article has got the emphasis or balance right, it might be worth discussing on the Talk page first. In general, if you can provide good, scholarly sources to back up any change, and cite them in the article, you should be fine, but the process where such edits are controversial is for another editor to revert them, then a discussion to be started (usually by the first editor) on the Talk page. If you're not sure whether an edit is likely to be challenged, proposing it on the Talk page first, with sources and rationale, can be a good way to find out.

Thank you today for Anactoria, "about a figure mentioned in the poetry of Sappho -- though it isn't clear exactly how often, who she was, and even if she existed at all. Anactoria emerges from the fragmentary pages of Sappho with almost no biographical detail, which of course has not prevented scholars, from antiquity to the present, engaging in bold conjecture and outrageous speculation as to who she might have been. She then has an interesting (honest) Nachleben in Roman poetry and in English, where she provided a springboard for Swinburne's "frankly pornographic" "Anactoria", and for Robert Lowell to fill in many of the gaps left by Sappho's account of her."! -- Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:15, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I'm have a doubt, I created a mainspace article on the Bulgarian Bride Market which is quite famous on the reports, there are many reliable reports available online on the web so I created an article on it, By I worry if it might get deleted pls Guide me!
here's link to my article -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kalaidzhi_Bride_Market --JesusisGreat7 (talk) 05:09, 2 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Hello -- the main reason that articles are deleted is because their subjects don't meet the guidelines for notability. In general, the way to prevent that is to show that there are lots of good-quality sourcecs that discuss the subject in detail. I notice you've got a few sources cited already, which is a good start: if you wanted to make the notability case even stronger, you could look for sources which are generally considered reliable, and make sure that those sources discuss the subject of the article in detail.
