When I'm in editing mode and have text selected, there should be a keyboard shortcut to make that text a hyperlink.

Similarly, there should be another keyboard shortcut for creating a new citation.

"Learn to edit" leads to "Introduction to Wikipedia". At the bottom of the page is "Please consider leaving us some feedback". I was unable to find a way to leave feedback from this message. In the tutorial series there is also a link marked "Feedback from new editors". Likewise it was not possible to submit feedback from here.

Where is Alignment?

User agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:121.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/121.0

(1.) Give us to use alignment, or as your template goes, justified alignment for standard text, no center and all left aligned.

(2.) Where printing options, 'font size and font face controlled' pdf export (for printing.)

PS: (1.) alignment, (2.) font size, (3.) font face, (4.) pdf - supports

In the loanwords section, it needs to be reviewed and revised as the amount of misinformation in this section is overwhelming.

The whole article needs review from a group reputable linguists from universities in the Philippines as the sources provided are debatable, baseless, contradictory and at times the sheer incompetence of the previous writer of this article is ludicrous.

Report uncited information

Hi! I would like to report an issue of uncited information. Canaletto's work is claimed on this page to have anticipated the impressionist movement. This information is not found anywhere else online (primary source), nor discussed in secondary sources and is seemed to have been made up on this page. Internet searches mostly become self referential to this page. There is no option to indicate "citation needed", so I am not sure if I can just delete this information (I do not want to commit an egregious act of censorship). Let me know what I can do about this, or if you can handle it on your end.

Thanks, Frequent Wikipedia user.
