Help needed with logo in infobox

I've added a logo to the organization infobox of article Nexus Project and it doesn't look quite right:

  • It's right-aligned rather than centred.
  • It contains two small overlapping rectangles.
  • It's enclosed in two boxes.

How do I fix these problems?

Thanks Misha Wolf (talk) 00:50, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi @PrimeHunter, I see that you've fixed it ... thanks!! Misha Wolf (talk) 01:01, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
@Misha Wolf: Yes, the logo parameter only wants the file name.[1] Many infoboxes add their own image code to image parameters. It's not stated explicitly at Template:Infobox organization but it's hinted by the context of {{{logo}}} in the displayed infobox at Template:Infobox organization#Full syntax.

1CA

Can you please help me set up 1CA on my talk page. Braxton7248 (talk) 02:49, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Have you tried following the instructions at WP:1CA? TSventon (talk) 03:02, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
I have but I don't understand the instructions. Braxton7248 (talk) 13:40, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
Braxton7248, I haven't done it myself, but User:Elli/OneClickArchiver#Installation instructions seems to make sense. Which instruction is unclear? TSventon (talk) 14:05, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for your help. The issue has been resolved. Braxton7248 (talk) 20:04, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Amaran Movie Page

we have been trying to edit the wrong details about the movie, but we couldnt do anhything about it sinc its semi protected Monisha Ravi (talk) 16:02, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

@Monisha Ravi Changes to articles like Amaran (2024 film) which are semi-protected can be suggested on their Talk Pages, in this case Talk:Amaran (2024 film). There is even a special wizard to make that easy. Please be specific in your suggestion and include a reliable published source for the change. For example, IMDb is not considered reliable for Wikipedia. Mike Turnbull (talk) 16:12, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Publishing a page

Hello there, I want to publish my edit or draft to wikipedia online. How can I publish it? help me with thta. thanks in advance Sohan61 (talk) 17:45, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

You can copy {{subst:submit}} into the top of the article to have it submitted through Articles for Creation. There, a volunteer will review it and, assuming it passes, move it to mainspace. However, I will state that, if you're talking about the page at User:Sohan61, it's almost certainly going to be declined as a conflict of interest. For some more information about writing an article on yourself (which is something you shouldn't do), see WP:SELF and WP:FAMOUS. Departure– (talk) 17:51, 12 November 2024 (UTC)
Departure–, WP:COI encourages COI editors to put new articles through the Articles for Creation process, so conflict of interest is not a reason to decline an article at AfC. On the other hand, promotional content could be. TSventon (talk) 23:29, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

There are now 2 attributions sections at the end of this page - please combine them - they are both different sections form the same book (DNB). I cannot do this, thanks 115.70.23.77 (talk) 23:19, 12 November 2024 (UTC)

Done. Clarityfiend (talk) 00:05, 13 November 2024 (UTC)
