WPVI or WLNE logos? (There's more than one ABC affiliate on channel 6...)

[edit]

We're not under any WP:DEADLINE to 'update' a logo. ABC affiliates continue to use the gloss version on-air and online interchangeably, and the logo has not changed so much that we need a new one immediately. The old one conveys just as much as the 'current' version and I'm in no rush to change until a high quality image is found. Nate (chatter) 20:52, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

At that, WPVI hasn't even instituted the matte logo as far as I see; all the newscast graphics and online presences have kept the gloss logo. Nate (chatter) 23:40, 28 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

When copying within Wikipedia

[edit]

Information icon Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Second British Invasion into Pop music. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. If you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required.--S Philbrick(Talk) 12:55, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Back to Black

[edit]

On 14 July 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Back to Black, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Back to Black, the final studio album by Amy Winehouse, topped the European Top 100 Albums chart for 13 non-consecutive weeks? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Back to Black. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Back to Black), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. 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.
