Welcome![edit]

Hello! I noticed your contributions to Stubbs Society and wanted to welcome you to the Wikipedia community. I hope you like it here and decide to stay. You are welcome to edit anonymously; however, creating an account is free and has several benefits (for example, the ability to create pages, upload media and edit without one's IP address being visible to the public).

May 2024[edit]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but you recently removed maintenance templates from Ed Stewart‎. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Please see Help:Maintenance template removal for further information on when maintenance templates should or should not be removed. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia, and if you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Thank you. miranda ^:3 04:47, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits referred to above, consider creating an account for yourself or logging in with an existing account so that you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Ed Stewart, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. (bojo)(they/them)(talk) 04:54, 27 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

"Improved link"[edit]

Hi,

I noticed a few of your recent edits used the edit summary "improved link", when changing a redirect to a "piped" link. Please note that Wikipedia generally prefers simple redirected links over links that are "piped" unnecessarily.

Let me quote a very brief excerpt from WP:NOPIPE:

N [[Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart|Mozart]]

Y [[Mozart]]

so:

N [[Bank of Italy|Banca d'Italia]]

Y [[Banca d'Italia]]

and

N [[Looe|West Looe]]

Y [[West Looe]]

etc.

Have a read of the advice given at MOS:LINK, particularly WP:NOTBROKEN, MOS:NOPIPE and WP:NOPIPE.

This is the discussion page for an IP user, identified by the user's IP address. Many IP addresses change periodically, and are often shared by several users. If you are an IP user, you may create an account or log in to avoid future confusion with other IP users. Registering also hides your IP address.
