Main page change

Hi,

The main page here is quite broken. It is full of red links. It is even more broken on mobile phones, and shows almost nothing.

The current code of the main page is too complicated and too hard to edit.

I recommend starting from scratch: Deleting everything and putting something very simple instead. Later it can be made more complex and designed, but in the beginning it should at least be usable.

Here's a very simple suggestion for a first version to begin from: Ọbanife:Amire80/mp.

If no-one objects, I'll replace the current page with this next week.

If anyone has better proposals, I'll be happy to hear them.

Hello Amir E. Aharoni,

The proposed simple fix is okay.

I removed some of the diacritics as they are not used for those particular words in Igbo language.

Thank you for this proposal.

Wikipedia or Wikipidia

Hi,

What is the right name for Wikipedia in Igbo?

The logo at the top says "Wikipedia", but the main page says "Wikipidia", and there is also the article Wikipidia.

So what is correct? It should be consistent everywhere.

Thanks! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 07:50, 7 Ọnwaàsatọ 2019 (UTC)

Hello Amir E. Aharoni,

The correct one is ”Wikipidia".

Regards,

HelloAmir E. Aharoni,

Its Wikipidia.

Thanks

HelloAmir E. Aharoni,

The correct should be Wikipidia

Daalụ(Thanks)

New featured article

Hello.

I am currently working on translating an article (https://en.wikiipedia.org/wiki/Alhambra) into Igbo. It is a relatively large and well sourced article, and when it is done, it might be good enough to go into the featured article area (assuming that it is checked over enough to make sure it's fine). I've translated some already, (see Alhambra), but my grammar might not be perfect so I'd appreciate another person to check that (I'm a native English speaker).

I would look forward to feedback.

Best regards, Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 00:35, 26 Mee 2026 (UTC)

(Because the recent changes are so few, I'll ping someone:

@Tochiprecious, @Ramadan bin Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 13:29, 27 Mee 2026 (UTC)

I would expect to get (enough) done in about a month, maybe more, maybe less. In a bit after a month, I won't be using this account for a while, in which case it'll need to wait for September. Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 00:40, 26 Mee 2026 (UTC)

Hi @Wikipedian12512(alt), thank you for your support; I'm happy to go through the grammar and make corrections where necessary. Tochiprecious (ṅkátá) 17:31, 27 Mee 2026 (UTC)

Thanks! I think I've gotten into the flow of translating, and I think I'll probably finish sooner. Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 18:09, 27 Mee 2026 (UTC)

And I'm sure I made enough mistakes to make you shudder, so thanks. Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 18:10, 27 Mee 2026 (UTC)

@Tochiprecious, @Iwuala Lucy:

Maybe a DYK on Oyiyi nke Zeus na Olympia? I don’t trust myself with a main page translation, so here’s the English version of a possible DYK:

…That all we know about the details of the Oyiyi nke Zeus na Olympia come from Greek coins? Wikipedian12512 (ṅkátá) 02:10, 31 Mee 2026 (UTC)

Also, I have a few small issues with the formatting of the Main Page. Is it possible for me to fix those without being an admin? Wikipedian12512 (ṅkátá) 02:12, 31 Mee 2026 (UTC)

I've got 78 paragraphs left to go, I started with somewhere around 200. Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 16:18, 31 Mee 2026 (UTC)

@Tochiprecious, @Lucy Iwuala: Done with it. Could you look over the grammar? Thanks! Wikipedian12512 (ṅkátá) 19:46, 16 Jụn 2026 (UTC)

@Wikipedian12512 Daalụ maka nke a!

I will go through it and effect any correction where needed. Lucy Iwuala (ṅkátá) 16:31, 18 Jụn 2026 (UTC)

"Did you know..."s

I'll use this as a place to discuss potential DYKs. Here are some English versions of potential hooks (I'll leave the translation to someone else. I don't trust myself):

...That all we know about the details of the Oyiyi nke Zeus na Olympia come from Greek coins?

...That in the Netherlands, people use Polders to turn oceans into farmland?

...That "the Alhambra," when translated into Arabic, literally reads "the the red one"?

People can feel free to add their own. Wikipedian12512(alt) (ṅkátá) 15:27, 1 Jụn 2026 (UTC)
