External links

Hi, just wanted to note that I've made a few edits to your Sergey Mazayev article to remove external links in the text of the article. For instance, where you updated the info to include the section about Queentet you linked directly to them. The only links in the text of the article should be to other Wikipedia articles, anything else like that Queentet link should go in the "External Links" section at the bottom. Thanks!

Got it! ;) How do I change the name of the article? It is meant to be Mazaev and not Mazayev. And is there a way to link Russian wiki articles with the English ones? Or is the Russian page counted as an external link? There is a page for Sergey in Russian and I would it to be linked. Thanks!

To change the name see WP:MOVE. Linking to the Russian page doesn't count as an external link, but there's a special way to do it as a Wiki link rather than just using the http: link. I'm not 100% certain where the accepted place in the article to put that link would be, you should post that at the Teahouse to find out for sure. JamesG5 (talk) 20:08, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

It doesn't seem like I have the right to move the page. Can you do it? Also, I am not sure what you mean about [{WP:TEAHOUSE|Teahouse]]. Thanks!

Made a typo in the link, it should be Teahouse. I'll see if I can do the move. JamesG5 (talk) 01:51, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Ok, page moved to Sergey Mazaev. Another thing the page needs is categories, take a look at WP:CATEGORY and H:CAT for info on how to add categories & what categories you should use. JamesG5 (talk) 01:59, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Amazing, thank you!

James, hi again! I am trying to figure out how to add photos and how to edit the rights to them. One photographer has agreed to give me the rights to use his photo, but with the condition that it cannot be downloaded or shared. And another photo was sent to me by Galina (Sergey's wife). It's the GQ photo that I posted and then was banned/taken off for copyright infringement http://www.gq.ru/culture/music/6507_muzykant_goda_gq_sergey_mazaev.php Can you please advise? thanks
