Looking for a template

I'm copy editing an article and encountered a name not mentioned elsewhere in the article. I can't figure out who it is from just the last name, should I just ignore it or is there a template like {{tlx|who?}} that's actually asking who this specific person is? (Literacy#Colonialism (1600s–1762) => "Trudel", second paragraph, first sentence) ~ Argenti Aertheri(Chat?) 00:03, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

:{{ping|Argenti Aertheri}} The end of the sentence has a reference which itself has the reference: "Trudel, Marcel. (1973). La population du Canada in 1663. Montréal: Fides." The real title says "en 1663" and not "in 1663". PrimeHunter (talk) 00:30, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

::{{Self-trout}} ~ Argenti Aertheri(Chat?) 01:17, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

:::Argenti Aertheri, as facts can be stated in Wikipedia's voice per WP:WIKIVOICE, I don't think Trudel's name needs to be used in the article. TSventon (talk) 01:36, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

:@Argenti Aertheri: If the answer wasn't evident from the reference, one option would have been to use {{tl|clarify}} with {{para|reason|Please provide more context explaining who this person is.}} Happy editing! GoingBatty (talk) 02:44, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

Dadivank Monastery

Hello, while reading Wikipedia's article about the Dadivank Monastery, which was build in the 9th century, I found that it states, "Azerbaijan denies the monastery's Armenian religious and cultural heritage, instead falsely referring to it as a "Caucasian Albanian temple." I am completely against this being in the headlines of information about Dadivank. This monastery was build in the 9th century, while Azerbaijian was founded around 100 years ago. Please rethink how this information is relevant to include in the headlines of Dadivank Monastery's history. Dadivank was and is an Armenian Apostolic monastery.

:@Dadivankmonestary: Hi there! The best place to discuss the content of an article is the article's talk page - in this case Talk:Dadivank Monastery. Thanks! GoingBatty (talk) 05:19, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

How can I link directly to the English Wikipedia dictionary, without going thru the regular encyclopedia page? 71.88.242.231 (talk) 11:26, 24 September 2023 (UTC)
