Problem with a wikilink[edit]

When you hover the cursor over the blue link to the page for Holbein's The Body of the Dead Christ in the Tomb, along with the opening sentences to the article it provides an image of the wrong painting, a painting by Grunewald that is further down the article. I am working on something that discusses the Holbein painting and it is disconcerting to have the wrong image pop up. How can I fix this? Harold the Sheep (talk) 05:33, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

~~I don't know what caused the problem, but Magic links bot seems to have cured it soon after you drew our attention to it.~~ See the answer below. Dbfirs 07:44, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

There are two hover features which can display an image. "Navigation popups" at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-gadgets displays the first image. I guess you have instead enabled "Page previews" (also called Hovercards) at Special:Preferences#mw-prefsection-rendering. It uses mw:Extension:PageImages to pick the page image. The first image is discarded due to the height to width ratio. See mw:Extension:PageImages#How are images scored? PrimeHunter (talk) 14:45, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

To what should AM radio wikilink when used to refer to the U.S. subgenre of pop music?[edit]

The intro of Sweet Seasons, about the recording by Carole King, includes the sentence Perone rates the song as "an ideal AM radio, top-40 pop song...that stands up as well as any of Carole King's hit compositions." AM radio is redirected to AM broadcasting, which covers the radio technology and its history but makes no mention of the AM radio U.S. subgenre of pop music. (If you don't know the subgenre I'm referring to, there's a page on AllMusic that calls it AM Pop Music. I'd provide a link to that page but when I visited it, my browser was frozen by a fake tech support scam page.)

Looking for a different article to which I might make AM radio wikilink, I tried Top 40 (radio format) but it's redirected to Contemporary hit radio, which states the term contemporary hit radio was coined in the early 1980s (after the end of the prevalence of the type of pop music on the AM radio band in the U.S., if I recall correctly). The article includes a section describing variations of contemporary hit radio but they refer to more recent radio formats.

Looking around some more, I found Soft rock, but I'm not entirely confident that it's appropriate to wikilink AM radio to it. Perhaps it should wikilink to the section Soft rock#Late 1960s–early 1970s, in particular? I also wonder if wikilinking AM radio to that is considered original research.

Thanks in advance. Dyspeptic skeptic (talk) 18:18, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Dyspeptic skeptic: Perhaps it could link to Top 40. Or, if there is no article that fits, remove the wikilink. You should discuss this on the article's talk page. RudolfRed (talk) 19:22, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is better to remove this wikilink. It does not serve any purpose. Ruslik_Zero 19:28, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

How to discuss an edit without getting banned[edit]

Over 5 years ago, I was topic banned under Discretionary Sanctions for discussing a source[1]. I thought this was the proper way to go about editing. I am after some advice on (a) how I could have known that my discussions fell into Discretionary Sanctions (b) How I could have engaged in discussion without being banned. --Iantresman (talk) 22:53, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

A dead horse does not come back to life just because five years have passed. Maproom (talk) 23:23, 24 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think that is a good analogy, and I am not asking to be proved right. I am asking how to edit appropriately. --Iantresman (talk) 12:07, 25 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
