{{subst:Thank you so much for your  creation of the Kate De Remero page. She is definitely referred to by this name so that was a very good change. You are an incredible Wikapedian and I appreciate the work you put into the new page. However, I am requesting that you as a great and educated Wikapedian delete this redirect page for the following reasons: the last name of the individual is de Remero, and Donnelly is vastly different from that, which causes confusion; since, as you noted, she uses the last name De Remero, it makes her description much more complicated and difficult to understand; and also the presence of the redirect article makes it more difficult to find the actual Kate de Remero that people will look for.|Kate Donnelly}} 108.51.195.71 (talk) 23:45, 29 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi there, and thanks for your message. Are you another person called Kate Donnelly? I ask because your focus seems to be on her old name, and when I searched for Kate Donnelly on Google I noticed that it is showing incorrect information and the wrong photo in the infobox.

Thank you for your message back! Again I appreciate all of your contributions to Wikapedia.

No, I am not another person named Kate Donnelly.

I am just someone looking to become a possible member of Wikapedia. I preach that I am just trying to do what is best for Wikapedia. Since there are many other Kate Donnelly's and Kate de Remero does not go by Kate Donnelly anymore, I think the presence of the redirect page makes for extra confusion. In addition, you accurately noted that she was born as Katherine Donnelly. That is a great addition to have on the page! But the addition of the Kate Donnelly redirect page makes for more perplexion and confusion.

I commend you for the work you have done on Wikapedia and also on the Kate De Remero page. I have been praying that I can make a positive impact on Wikapedia, and I think the elimination of the redirect page is a way I can do that. For the betterment of Wikapedia, I ask that you delete the Kate Donnelly redirect page. From doing adequate research, I have learned that deleting a redirect page is extremely simple due to its small bandwith. If it makes for extra confusion, I think deletion of the redirect page will have a positive impact.

Thank you so much and I appreciate your time! 108.51.195.71 (talk) 11:04, 30 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Are you capturing, editing and then pasting/replacing the entire article? Please don't do that, as exactly what just occurred will frequently be the outcome when other editors are also editing the same article. See WP:EDITCONFLICT to see how we normally protect against that when you use the Wikipedia editor. General Ization Talk 21:32, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I had multiple tabs open. I think I was accidentally editing an old revision and clicked save, which is why later edits were overwritten. When I saw what happened I copied the last revision by Octoberwoodland and restored it, minus the change I intended to make. Johndavies837 (talk) 21:39, 5 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
I thoroughly understand; I've done the same. Just wanted to make sure you weren't using Copy to Notepad/scrabble scrabble scrabble/Copy All/Paste to edit articles, as I've seen editors do that as well with the same consequences. Thanks. General Ization Talk 01:08, 6 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
