Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. Regarding your recent edits to Richard Zulu when you modified the page, you introduced unknown parameters. Just because you specify |some_param=some_variable does not always mean that variable will display. The |some_param= must be defined in the template. You can look at the documentation for the template you are using but it is also helpful to use the preview button before you save your edit; this helps you find any errors you have made and ensure that the values you have added are displaying correctly. Below the edit box is a Show preview button. Pressing this will show you what the page will look like without actually saving it. It is strongly recommended that you use this before saving. Note I have likely fixed the error by now so check the history of the page to see how it was fixed. If you have any questions, contact the help desk for assistance.

Hello MichealKal. I've got a simple but probably weird question for you. Since you created that page, where did you learn of this place: Aga Khan Mosque? Hacked (Talk|Contribs) 13:54, 24 April 2026 (UTC)
- Hi @Ivebeenhacked, I am Ugandan so I document Uganda heritage and any information about Uganda on Wikipedia.
- So I realised that it had no article so I wrote it. MichealKal (talk) 17:21, 24 April 2026 (UTC)

May backlog drive
An article-only backlog drive is currently underway. We are hoping to make a big dent in the backlog. You can read more about it or join at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Backlog drives/May 2026.
PageTriage
An attempt was made to get the New Pages Feed to sort by date marked as reviewed instead of date created. However we had to revert it due to bugs. We may try again in the future. You can subscribe to the Phabricator ticket if you're interested in following along.
Reminders:
- You can access live chat with patrollers on the New Page Patrol Discord.
- Consider adding the project discussion page to your watchlist.
