Need help to update a reference in an article in arabic !

[edit]

Hello, I would like to update a dead link in an article, but it's in the arabic version. I unfortunately don't understand where the Edit Menu is and I certainly do not want to make a mess of the whole article! It's the article about Alexandre Loukachenko. Here is the link : http://ar.wiki.x.io/wiki/%D8%A3%D9%84%D9%83%D8%B3%D9%86%D8%AF%D8%B1_%D9%84%D9%88%D9%83%D8%A7%D8%B4%D9%8A%D9%86%D9%83%D9%88 Can someone who speaks arabic help me by changing the link of reference #28 "Mylène Vandesteele (6 octobre 2013). "L'université d'Harvard attribue le Prix Ig Nobel au président biélorusse" ? The valid url is : https://fr.express.live/luniversite-dharvard-attribue-le-prix-ig-nobel-au-president-bielorusse-alexandre-loukachenko-exp-196706

Thank you in advance !

You can make the proposal at the Arabic article's talk page at ar:نقاش:ألكسندر لوكاشينكو, but if we're updating that reference anyway, wouldn't it be better to find a reliable Arabic-language source? That will be much more convenient for the Arabic Wikipedia's readers who cannot all be expected to speak French. As an aside, the small gear next to the "Languages" header in the left sidebar lets you set the language of the wiki and its menus, independent of the language of the content. So you can get an "Edit source" tab on the Arabic Wikipedia instead of "عدل المصدر". Huon (talk) 16:55, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Make that the right sidebar on the Arabic Wikipedia, of course - until you have set it to English. Huon (talk) 16:56, 29 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
