Contact by-email
You may send private inquiries by email to our information team. They will be kept confidential if you request so.
Wikipedia is not affiliated with any outside corporation, manufacturer, or government. Our information team cannot research information for you, on science, history or any other topics, and cannot help you contact personalities or companies. We do not provide legal or medical advice.
Please contact : info-en@wikimedia.org.
If your inquiry involves a particular article or image, make sure you provide the exact URL of the article. The URL is the "Internet address" of the page; it is generally shown in the browser in a long box in the top of the browser window, and begins like http://en.wikipedia. Please copy and paste it exactly. Alternatively, you may provide the exact name of the article (it is written above "From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia"). We have hundreds of thousands of pages, sometimes many on very similar or related topics, and it can thus be nearly impossible to find a page unless you give its precise location.
Please provide all relevant details. Imprecise requests may result in delays.
