:I don't understand how 1,00,000 is "not a number" and 1,000,000 "is".

Crawford81

What are you on about? How did I add a joke to a Wikipedia page? Crawford81 (talk) 14:04, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Crawford81: These edits are clearly vandalism (or a joke, if you look at them in a certain way). If you are here to vandalise Wikipedia, why don't you turn around and become a constructive editor? Cheers. RoCo(talk) 18:47, 19 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Warnings

Hello,i dont get it why i get those warnings...will my account be permanently banned? Anonymouaujajajjss (talk) 17:13, 22 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect now broken

The redirect on page Your mileage may vary is now broken. Not entirely sure what exactly it should be following the Rfd outcome, can you please have a look? -- Egil (talk) 07:21, 25 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Egil: I didn't get what you meant by broken. I visited the page as a random article, and saw it soft redirect to the article on Wikitionary. It looks like it still works. Was it meant to be a hard redirect? By the way the outcome of the Rfd is leaning towards keep and I might withdraw it soon if no other opinion gets stated.
