How did the media of the day happen?

The file was tagged as no permission, expiring the day it was to appear, and it was just left there? And—listen to this file, and please tell me how it could possibly be below TOO. This needs to be removed ASAP. Snowmanonahoe (talk) 21:10, 26 April 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Straßburg?

The name of the city in the current Picture of the Day shows "Straßburg", which redirects to "Strasbourg". Please fix the spelling. Sbb1413 (he) (talk • contribs) 04:57, 12 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Mako001 In fact, this has been reported in Phab. The reality is that this situation will not be fixed, because it will be automatically fixed on Day 2. Q28 (talk) 12:10, 20 May 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
