Dashes in article titles

When naming an article, don't use a hyphen as a substitute for an en dash that properly belongs in the title, for example in Eye–hand span. To aid searching and linking, provide a redirect from the corresponding article title with hyphens in place of en dashes, as in Eye-hand span.

New intro in FG-verse

I know you said that you wanted to distance yourself from the subject for a while, but I have just comprehensively re-written a new intro on Falun Gong. If you have a bit of time please just have one quick look to copyedit and proofread to make sure I have everything right. Thanks! Colipon+(Talk) 23:25, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I feel I really need to stay away for a while longer, if you don't mind. Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 03:10, 3 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

DAB links

Please avoid converting direct links (such as Kent County, Rhode Island) into links to disambiguation pages (such as Kent County). Instead, consider piping the link (as [[Kent County, Rhode Island|Kent County]]) to achieve the desired result without rendering the link less useful. Oddly, you're the second experienced editor this week to make this specific edit to the WLKW article. - Dravecky (talk) 14:49, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your note. It was my mistake, my eyes were blurred. ;-) You will have noticed that the other similar links I changed to [[City, State]]. Ohconfucius ^¡digame! 14:56, 1 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Edna Parker and year links

I thought you and the others agreed to leave the status quo as-is until the discussion was decided?

Further, your "final warning" is very flawed and reflective of you, not me. I did NOT revert edits three times in a 24-hour period, so that is a false charge. Further, it is a conflict of interest for you to be both involved in the matter as a point of discussion AND also as a point of enforcing "penalties." In short, it's like trying to win a chess game by knocking the pieces off the board. Cyber-bullying and threats to block are NOT productive and NOT good arguments, either. Far from a WIKI-LAWYERING accusation, it seemed an acceptable and reasonable compromise to link the sentence in the Jiroemon Kimura article directly to the year 1897, rather than his year-of-birth/year-of-death listing at the top. However, it seems to me that you are more interested in "winning" than being fair, more interested in bullying than being reasonable. As such, I will take this matter to higher authorities.Ryoung122 22:24, 10 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
