stubs?

Hi, I was intrigued by your recent "stub sorting". Looking at this list, most of the articles are not stubs, so am wondering at the title. Thanks for all the work. Happy new year. Span (talk) 05:54, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Ah. Thanks for the info. No harm done, I guess. Best wishes Span (talk) 14:05, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Hallsteinn Sigurðsson

The article Hallsteinn Sigurðsson has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Notability concerns. Can't find any reliable, secondary sources on which to base a biography of this painter, the closest I found via books/news was a passing reference to a craftsman: http://www.volksfreund.de/nachrichten/region/trier/Heute-in-der-Trierer-Zeitung-Gelobtes-Arbeitsland-Luxemburg;art754,2567564. He did have a show at what appears to be a small gallery in Reykjavik, and there's primary (from the gallery) coverage of that at, but I didn't find secondary coverage of it. In the end, I can't see an argument for notability under either WP:GNG or WP:ARTIST, but additional sources, as always, are welcome.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. j⚛e decker^talk 02:45, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Ser Amantio di Nicolao, I am Tigreman, a contributor, and I have written about Alfonso N Lovo, a well known Nicaraguan rock musician and composer recognized in Nicaragua, and internationally, and I see that you have blocked his information, repeatedly.

Incredibly, in the same page Nicaraguan Composers, Wikipedia is listing Rigoberto Lopez Perez, a person whose claim to fame has nothing to do with music but with being the assassin of Anastasio Somoza Garcia, a President of Nicaragua, considered a Dictator. Rigoberto Lopez, is not a composer, he was a Poet.

I would respectfully ask you to reinstate after whatever modifications you seem fit, Lovo as a composer, from Nicaragua, the man is active, playing, and receiving recognition, by TV, Newsmedia, and critics, for his music and guitar playing.

Thank you, Tigreman Tigreman (talk) 07:35, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Anhui

Hi. I was wondering if you could do the control H thing to wiki link and change into capital letters for town and township List of township-level divisions of Anhui?♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:35, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

OK, thanks. I've begun expanding Hallsteinn Sigurðsson... I haven't visited your talk page in ages! And it may surprise you but I don't actually have your talk page on my watch list, or anybody elses for that matter!! Mayvbe Calliopejen should take a leaf out of my book.. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:02, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Its good to stay away for a bit I think.. I see some red links in that Icelandic sculptor article I'll attend to shortly.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:08, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Nice to see me actually producing some content again? I can't keep it up though as I'm cutting down on the time I spend on wikipedia..♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:12, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Aw you're too kind. Well in the olden days everything seemed to be missing so it was something of a start as many articles as possible scenario. Nowadays we still seem to be missing loads!! But the state on so many articles is so bad that the really need improving. I still think starting decent stubs and then starting more interlinked and on and on is the best way to build wikipedia and it is extremely important for future growth but in the short-term way of thinking, especially from a readers viewpoint we really do need to develop the stale articles we have on here or start them again or something...♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:33, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Need your opinion

I am asking you because your page says you are one of the 40 active wikipedians.

There is an article called 2011 Tucson shootings. A Congresswoman was shot and a Judge killed. Also 5 others killed. The 5 others are not famous people. I think that they should not be listed like this.

Killed:

John Smith

Jane Anderson

Mary Smith

Please let me know how you feel or you can write it here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:2011_Tucson_shooting#Dead_people_should_not_be_listed I am asking only 1 person, you. Jimbo Wales is a bigger person but he is too busy. Madrid 2020 (talk) 02:12, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Nancy Carnevale

I restored the notability tag on the Nancy Carnevale article. Receiving an American Book Award does not establish notability. The subject does not meet the WP:ACADEMIC or WP:AUTHOR criteria. The article lacks support through significant coverage in reliable, independent sources. At this point, I chose to alert the article's author, rather than nominating for deletion. Regards, Cind.amuse 17:27, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of René Lefèvre (journalist)

No claim of notability in this unsourced BLP.

Clint Eastwood

Clint Eastwood is just about to undergo GA review within the next 24 hours. If you could give it a read and make any last minute copyedits I'd be grateful.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:12, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. Its very comprehensive I think, given that between us Nehrams and I have covered 4 books on him, but I had to remove quite a bit of material to sub articles in order to make it an accpetable length which I'd have preferred had remained...I managed to retain most though by simply rewording and sticking to the bare essentials.♦ Dr. Blofeld 19:25, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

I think it just needs grammar/wording proofing that's all. Shouldn't take more than a few minutes.♦ Dr. Blofeld 23:31, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for that.♦ Dr. Blofeld 10:24, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

I'm in the sub-stubbing mood right now. French chateaus me thinks.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:01, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Just by looking around there are many users now who make way more edits than I do, especially AWBers. I wouldn't be surprised if I drop out of the "top 20" by count in a year or two. I think you'll overtake me in edit count this year.♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:45, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Me neither. You are around 50,000 edits behind me now... You'll definately pass me eventually, unless you stop editing/AWBing. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:01, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

You sound as if you need to forget about wikipedia for a few weeks and come back refreshed.♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:40, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Same here as I recently remember saying... ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:45, 14 January 2011 (UTC)

Can you use AWB to add infoboxes to the Hungarian villages you started last night like this (I've done A) and ensure if you start the remaining later you add infboxes first time. If you subst:pagename the title in the infobox it shouldn't require any extra effort upon initial creation. It sjust makes it easier later when coordinates and population data is added. Thanks!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:44, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Indeed, excellent work with the Antarctica stub sorting too. You should go back to creating stubs I think. Moaning about "sub stubs" is so 2008.... Wikipedia is going to be around for a long long time by the looks of it so why not start content which can be built upon... if you do start any settlements though, ensure you have an infobox with the country name and region/district and then start them.. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:49, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

I heard the Golden Globes and Ricky Gervais didn't go down too well in Washington? I did see clips of it. I must admit I did laugh at the Hugh Hefner joke though. LOL if the states is shocked at Gervais one can only imagine what they'd think of Frankie Boyle or Jethro (comedian)!♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:14, 17 January 2011 (UTC)

Byron Fidetzis picture

Greetings (again :))

I would like to replace the picture on the Byron Fidetzis page (with this one http://www.koa.gr/resources/fidetzis-2009.jpg ) but I am not qualified to upload media content on wikipedia. Ironically, over the years I have made many changes on pages here and there, but not as a logged-in user.

There must not be any copyright conflict with the image I suggest. It is taken from the official Athens State Orchestra web-page, and permission from Mr. Fidetzis himself has been granted.

So, I am asking you to change the picture instead of me.

I thank you in advance.

Hey sorry for disturbing, but can you tell me how can I insert image on page. I sow explanation here, but it only show me how to insert image that is on other page but how can I upload it from my computer and post on page? And can you tell me what this mean (Dusan993 (talk) 21:18, 16 January 2011 (UTC)) , I know it should be replaced with my nickname but how can I do that?

Thanks for answering. Yes I have right for the photo, my friend is photographer and he told me that I could upload the picture. Thanks for answering :)

How many edits yesterday???

Geography Barnstar You definately deserve this award for yours hours of dedication to starting villages and tagging achieved on January 17-18th, 2011. Phenomemal work, thousands upon thousands of edits, thankyou!!!♦ Dr. Blofeld 12:59, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Hikkaduwa Divisional Secretariat

Could you try and reference your articles, please? Ironholds (talk) 15:09, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

It's also listed as an external link, not a reference; the policy on that notes that "Sites that have been used as sources in the creation of an article should be cited in the article, and linked as references, either in-line or in a references section" If you could switch that around? An inline citation would be best - one of (many) advantages is that if someone adds unreferenced text to the article, we can tell fairly quickly. Without inline citations, that's not always possible.

Brilliant! Thanks, Ironholds (talk) 15:44, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

If you could alter the stub tag for Eastern Province in Divisional Secretariats of Sri Lanka from Central to Eastern up until Koralaib using AWB this would be great. The stub tag is supposed to be eastern obviously unlike Alayadiwembu Divisional Secretariat etc..♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:55, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

Can you also wikilink User:Dr. Blofeld/Kazakhstan like Template:Almaty Province. I aim to get Kazakhstan done too. Benin will take too long to draw up at the moment. ♦ Dr. Blofeld 18:03, 18 January 2011 (UTC)

First, thanks for creating so much articles! Can you add a WikiProject template to the talks? emijrp (talk) 11:48, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

I've added links here but the lines are preventing it from appearing. Can you kindly replace the lines with the dot dividers and then I can resume creating them..♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:01, 19 January 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Bang duck

Hello Ser Amantio di Nicolao. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Bang duck, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: The artist has an article, so A9 does not apply. This may well not pass WP:NSONGS, no source or indication of notability - consider PROD or AfD. Thank you. JohnCD (talk) 15:07, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

How dare you even consider deleting it!! Pure talent. LOL. Make sure you listen to it when you get home, its like something concocted by Kevin and Perry. The Black Eyed Peas are as Bach was to classical music compared to this...♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:31, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

I really worry about the future of the planet..... LOL. There are 335 million people who've watched one of Lady Gaga's "songs" on youtube....♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:05, 21 January 2011 (UTC)

Afghanistan stubs

Hi. Good work with the Afghanistan stubs. Are you going to add the coordinates available in the table? Also, can you add |class=stub|importance=low to the talk pages? Thanks! emijrp (talk) 21:09, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Remember also to change the location e.g western to northwestern etc for each province..♦ Dr. Blofeld 21:59, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Tis OK. Thanks also for the talkpage tagging...♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:06, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

i've expanded Tojg a little. Some info can be ound for a lot of villages I think although some are as a dead as a dodo in google books. I'd say though its only a matter of time. The fact is all of the villages and towns are real, verifiable places so will make their way onto the web in due course.♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:26, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

AWB access

Hi there Ser Amantio di Nicolao, this is to inform you that I have removed your access to the AutoWikiBrowser, a semi-automated tool designed for speeding up otherwise tedious, minor changes. This is because you have been using this tool against the bot policy (link), and against it's terms of use (link).
The specific part of the bot policy you have violated is the rules on mass article creation, the community is very much agreed (consensus here is not difficult to judge) that semi-automated tools such as AWB should not be used to mass-create article pages (and possible shortly, pages in other namespaces). You have violated AWB's rule of use #1, as you are failing to check edits before saving, and effectively running a bot, therefore also breaking #2. How do I conclude this? Well looking at the following report:

Extended content

<rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:35Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:33Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:32Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:30Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:20Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:12Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:08Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:07Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:04Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:06:01Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:59Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:56Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:54Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:52Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:48Z" /> <rc type="new" user="Ser Amantio di Nicolao" timestamp="2011-01-22T21:05:40Z" />

you appear to be taking about 2-3 seconds between some edits (and in one case 1 second), not only is this leading to mistakes by you, it's also flooding the new pages list (having autopatrolled is only preventative to a certain extent). Speaking of mistakes, you appeared to make a mistake in a whole batch of creations, and then attempted to fix them by using AWB again and therefore making even further mistakes (see here), this displays to me that you aren't really taking mistakes seriously enough or working hard enough to make sure you don't make them, and that you fix them and learn from them. For these reasons you should no longer use AWB, if at some point in the future you can prove that you are able to follow the rules of use, you may be granted access again. - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 22:56, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

AWB is incredibly useful for certain tasks, but it is indeed all too easy to stray into controversial editing, and then it just becomes a a stressful and time consuming experience. You're not the only user to experience this and I'm sure you won't be the last. Enjoy your well earned break from that kind of editing, however, I won't be discouraging you from resuming AWB once you are happy to use it how it's designed to be used. All the best, - Kingpin¹³ (talk) 23:57, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

All Hail The Muffin Nor does it taste nice... 02:31, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

No worries mate. All Hail should be able to use the google book ref link I gave him so he can make better notability judgements in the future. He's a decent bloke. There are far worse people who make article assessments on wikipedia and pass themselves off as credible articles reviewers and when I protest at an article being promoted to GA with a mere 6 sources and length 7.5kb I apparently have no right to and am sort of scoffed at as "How dare the King of Micro stubs say this article is not comprehensive and detailed enough".... Some people have their heads so far up their own backside they can lick the contents of the chocolate mousse they ate for dinner off the lining of their stomach..♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:01, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

OK I will start a few shortly although I have Uige Province to add to..♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:20, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Can you do me a favor for Linville, see this. I presume in the states you can access the whole book (I can't). Google book search turned up a figure of 3500 or something on page 166 but I can't view the page. It might be population in like 1870 or something. Can you look for me?♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:45, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Awesome. Thanks!♦ Dr. Blofeld 16:04, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

A photo of wildest Afghanistan. That's quite something! I had to print out the page, scan it, corp it and upload though just to access it. One of these days you'll be able to save photos from PDFs...♦ Dr. Blofeld 22:02, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Funny but I'd never heard of Clawdd Coch yet its barely 10-15 minutes drive from my house! Of course I know of Pendoylan but when you drive through you barely notice the little hamlets and presume they are part of the main village... I know of the vast majority of little settlements of the south and southwest of the Vale of Glamorgan but admittedly my knowledge of the north and northwest of it is not very good... Of course if I'm going up into the valleys, like shopping in Ebbw Vale I'm not exactly going to drive along tiny country lanes to get there... Some day I must explore that area. Its probably the same with you... You probably hadn't have heard of some of the unincorporated places even in the next county to you....♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:43, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, its the same with me and Bridgend County Borough. I've just looked on a google map and I barely recognise any of the village names let alone the tiny hamlets!! But again its the northern part I'm clueless about. You see whenever I go down Bridgend way its usually to Porthcawl on the coast. When you drive there the northern part of the county is sort of no mans land. I actually know more about the villages in Rhondda Cynnon Taf than I do Bridgend or Monmouthshire etc. Beyond that I am embarrasingly unknowledegable and ignorant of welsh geography. I can barely think of 5 settlements in western/mid/northern Wales. Fishguard, Colwyn Bay, Llandudno, now I'm really struggling!!! Southwest coast I know well like Milford Haven, Pembroke, Carmarthen, Amroth etc but everywhere else in Wales really dreadful how little i know...♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:27, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Yeah that's what I mean you know of those places because they are along the main road to get from A to B . There are a lot of places way off the main road arteries that is sort of a No Man's Land that they lead to know where so you don't go there.. UNless of course you make a concious adventure trip exploring... I have been to northwest Wales once when I was 3 or so... Morfa Nefyn. All I remember is a beautiful but rather cold old stone cottage that we stayed at and running in the fields with the sheep. Lovely place. Now that far north of Plas yn Rhiw actually, other side of the Llyn Peninsula..♦ Dr. Blofeld 15:48, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for helping, maybe we can corporate? --Vinie007 19:51, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Maybe you know if we can upload the photo's of ministers that are on ministry sites --Vinie007 19:54, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

And i can't find something about Ministry of State (Albania), maybe you can help create it --Vinie007 19:56, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes but not to much. In Albania copyright isn't a problem, no body heard of it and I am not sure a law in Albania excists of it. But i think not. Maybe Template:PD-Albania-extempt can help --Vinie007 20:01, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Ahh i found the law, See this, it says Free Use for the Purpose of Giving Information maybe wikipedia falls under it. --Vinie007 20:04, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Ok really thanks for your help --Vinie007 20:31, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

I hope it could be uploaded for example this one [2] of Ferdinand Xhaferaj is really nice. --Vinie007 21:13, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

BTW State ministry is disvolved the new ministry is Ministry of Innovation and ICT (Albania) --Vinie007 21:19, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Maybe we can expand the Assembly of the Republic of Albania article --Vinie007 10:31, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Or Constitution of Albania if you like, i am working on the parts--Vinie007 13:08, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Do you know how to remove the white unused background, like File:Ministry of Agriculture and Consumer Care Logo.gif --Vinie007 12:44, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Trial version and can't use it, maybe you know someone to help as top 10 editor :P? --Vinie007 14:57, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Did you checked it? --Vinie007 20:15, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Maybe you can give me a name or two and i ask them by myself if you prefer --Vinie007 20:30, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Kyron

FYI - I have started a new article, Disappearance of Kyron Horman, which you may be interested in since you voted to keep Kyron Horman in the last AfD. I believe that an article about the event itself would not fail WP:BLP1E like the original biographical article on the victim did. There is a ton of coverage, so sources are not a problem. Feel free to add to the article if you like. Thanks! SnottyWong ^comment 23:21, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

DNB

Hi. Boleyn's created a loads of articles without profession categories. Can you add categories to here?♦ Dr. Blofeld 01:10, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Mary Burce Warlick‎

Ciao Ser Amantio. Thanks for adding the category to Mary Burce Warlick‎. Do you by any chance know if there is a category for Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy alumni. I search and couldn't find it. Seems odd though that for such an institution nobody has created that category. Tuscumbia (talk) 22:01, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello, Ser Amantio di Nicolao. You have new messages at Tuscumbia's talk page.
You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.

Tuscumbia (talk) 22:13, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Please and then we can add them to all of them alumni from the above list. Tuscumbia (talk) 22:20, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Ser Amantio! Tuscumbia (talk) 22:37, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Keir H. Stahlsmith

Hang on; there is sufficient evidence that modern aerial warfare is conducted by ONE air operations database (AODB), and that Mr. Jim Bradshaw (retired USAF major, civilian, Shaw AFB, Sumter SC), is the head of this highly classified department. Don't delete an entire biography based on bias or political views, or personal views; check the sources and check for the relevance. There is always ONE air operations database manager in position at Al Udeid Air Base for the whole of the middle east at all times, and this is a fact of history and a fact of life, and a fact of the modern air war.

Check the sources, because you clearly haven't spent any time reading the references at all, to find any information that pertains to these facts. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KnightofZion (talk • contribs) 12:29, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Lighthouses

Thanks for the help, Ser! Now, if you could have a look at List of lighthouses in the Netherlands and translated the other ones! And don't blame me--it was your buddy who set me up for it. Drmies (talk) 03:03, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

For the working wo/man

	The Working Wikipedian's Barnstar
	Thank you for all that very important "little" stuff you do. Drmies (talk) 16:00, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

• I thank you for that you dropped on my page, but I'm serious about this barnstar here: you and people like PamD and Mandarax are doing a lot of good for the project--and few people really notice it. Thanks again for all your help in organizing, categorizing, and what not--for making, for instance, my stubby stubs better than I left them. Drmies (talk) 16:55, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Categories

Ciao Ser--

Thanks for your question. My understanding, based on the news sources, is that the proper title for these positions is "representative" of the district, and that they are reps in the House of Representatives of the Philippines. So, I think your cats are correct. Stringbean121 (talk) 10:23, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Llano move

You have lightening fingers. Appreciate the quick catch on the Southern Hotel (Llano, Texas).

Do you think the same thing should be done for Llano County Courthouse and Jail, Llano, Texas ? Maile66 (talk) 22:16, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Opportunity to comment on Batavia

There is a discussion starting up at Talk:Batavia (disambiguation), that may be of interest to you. The subject is technically a page move discussion, but the purpose of the discussion is to decide where Batavia should redirect. Until earlier today, Batavia redirected to History of Jakarta, but during this discussion, it is redirecting to Batavia (disambiguation). Your comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanks for your help. HuskyHuskie (talk) 22:41, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

You are receiving this because you are one of the principal editors of one of the articles that is linked to Batavia (disambiguation). This notice is being posted to all of the top three editors of each of these articles (in terms of total edits), with the following exceptions:

• editors who are blocked
• anonymous IP editors
• editors who, despite ranking in the top three of edits to an article, have only a single edit to said article

This is an attempt to be a neutrally-phrased posting in keeping with the principles of WP:CANVASS. If you find anything in the wording or the manner posted to be a violation of that guideline, please notify me at my talk page.

ViolaKnits

Quick tip; when you 'welcome' please {{subst:welcome}} instead of transcluding it; there's some note about it somewhere. Mostly, it's less confusing for the new user, plus the template might change later and it's nice to see exactly what was 'said' to them. Also, please put the 'welcome' into a == Section == because it tends to get the new person used to the idea of sections. See [3]. Cheers,  Chzz  ►  16:54, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

James Mitchell article

Hello,

I've just done my first article about James Mitchell (poker player). When I type in James Mitchell in the search I can't see the article listed with the other people called James Mitchell. Do I need to do something for disambiguation or does it work automatically?

Thanks
