[edit]How do I request a move? (page name change)
[edit]The article here is too vague:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Requested_move It says to add the command at the "bottom of the talk page," but what is the bottom of a talk page?~~~~ AGuyInHisRoom (talk) 00:22, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- @AGuyInHisRoom: If you go to the page you want to be renamed, there will be a link at the top labeled "Talk". That will take you to that page's talk page. For example, if you wanted to move Example you would place the template at Talk:Example RudolfRed (talk) 01:22, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Okay, so I would click "add topic" on the talk page and then place the command in the description box? Does it matter what I put in the title? Thanks.~ AGuyInHisRoom (talk) 02:06, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- By title I mean the subject box.~ AGuyInHisRoom (talk) 02:07, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- @AGuyInHisRoom: The template (command) automatically adds a subject, so just leave the subject box blank. SilverLocust 💬 03:16, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

I've no idea how to correct this...the ref list and categories etc are in a table in the Landmarks section. It looks like it was created like that. Can anyone fix this? Thanks, Knitsey (talk) 14:30, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- When that happens it is almost always because the table has not been closed with "|}" on a line by itself.
- I have added that, to close the table. I have no idea whether there is other information missing as well. ColinFine (talk) 14:56, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Despite you adding only two symbols, the whole thing has been corrected! Thank you. Knitsey (talk) 15:00, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- @ColinFine: is this the same problem with Page, Arizona? Everything after Geography is under the same heading? Is the climate table not closed correctly? Sorry to bother you again. Knitsey (talk) 15:46, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- It looks fine to me. ColinFine (talk) 17:34, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- In mobile view, everything after Climate is in the climate section, so references etc are not in a separate section unless you open the Climate section. Knitsey (talk) 18:31, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- That one was an unclosed <div>. Generally, if sections are incorrectly bumped together on mobile but everything looks alright, its an unclosed tag displaying at 100% width, and one can fairly easely use the inspect tool included in most browser's developer tools to find out where it is... ColinFine look at [1] with all sections collapsed to see what he means... Victor Schmidt (talk) 19:20, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Ok, I see what you've done with that one. Thanks. Knitsey (talk) 19:23, 2 September 2023 (UTC)

Domestic terrorism in the United States: Revision history
[edit]The list of domestic terrorist in the United States is not complete, the Proud Boys, Oath Keepers, Patriot Front, and Blood Tribe are not listed. Why are they not on that Wiki page? Ravenz3 (talk) 20:12, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
- Please direct any concerns about that article to its talk page, Talk:Domestic terrorism in the United States, along with any reliable sources where these groups have been designated as terrorist groups or their members convicted of terrorism. 331dot (talk) 20:28, 2 September 2023 (UTC)
