Spot on

Like what you said “former town” if we could put that on main page would be great :) Glman83 (talk) 16:14, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Can I ask why you’ve changed the brighton (disambiguition) to former town city of Brighton & Hove, which I agree with but the main page isn’t? I’d appreciate it if you can reply Glman83 (talk) 18:53, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Sugar sand

Hi. I stated a discussion: Talk:Sugar sand#Conversion to disambiguation.

About my edit on "Ass"

Excuse me, but I really feel like "vulgar" should be added to that section, because it is a vulgar slang for you-know-what. RobThomas15 (talk) 13:52, 11 September 2019 (UTC)

N-Gage

I was attempting to move N-Gage (Device) into just "N-Gage" since it covers both N-Gage QD and the N-Gage service on the same page and there is no need for disambiguation page.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 01:35, 17 September 2019 (UTC)

What's going on?

Hi Bkonrad. You've made five reverts in quick succession at the LRR page, in contravention of WP:3RR, and then made a WP:INVOLVED block of the other user (who also broke 3RR). The dispute over the dab page looks like a simple content dispute to me, so it shouldn't suitable for breaching 3RR or even rollbacking. Is there something I'm missing here? Thanks  — Amakuru (talk) 11:58, 28 September 2019 (UTC)

Perhaps I was a little hasty dealing with a rockhead ignoring edit summaries. It was not a content dispute, but the editor repeatedly adding multiple links, incorrectly piped links to dab entries as well removing correct italicization for titled work. olderwiser 12:17, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
Yeah, it's a borderline case... the removal of the italics I don't understand, but including Lego Rock Raiders as a target for LRR could be legitimate - that part seems content-related. Either way, I'd politely request you to be a bit more gentle next time and try to engage. I may be wrong but that user looks like a well-meaning newcomer who's gone in a bit heavily in re-instating reverted edits, rather than someone actively trying to disrupt. Cheers  — Amakuru (talk) 13:49, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
  • Yes, you really need to be more careful. You broke 3RR and then blocked the person you were edit warring, without, as far as I could see, any sort of talk page warning first. I sympathize some, since that editor is making a lot of misguided edits - I’m on the verge of blocking them myself - but I’ve seen people get desysopped over this sort of behavior.

Is there a reason SI prefix should not be linked on disambiguation pages?

Just curious! -- Rockstonetalk to me! 21:39, 14 October 2019 (UTC)

Yes, dab entries should usually only contain one navigable blue link. See mos:DABENTRY. olderwiser 23:24, 14 October 2019 (UTC)
Alright! Duly noted! Thanks. -- Rockstonetalk to me! 14:13, 15 October 2019 (UTC)

2019 US Banknote Contest

US Banknote Contest
November-December 2019

There are an estimated 30,000 different varieties of United States banknotes, yet only a fraction of these are represented on Wikimedia Commons in the form of 2D scans. Additionally, Colonial America, the Confederate States, the Republic of Texas, multiple states and territories, communities, and private companies have issued banknotes that are in the public domain today but are absent from Commons.

In the months of November and December, WikiProject Numismatics will be running a cross-wiki upload-a-thon, the 2019 US Banknote Contest. The goal of the contest is to increase the number of US banknote images available to content creators on all Wikimedia projects. Participants will claim points for uploading and importing 2D scans of US banknotes, and at the end of the contest all will receive awards. Whether you want to claim the Gold Wiki or you just want to have fun, all are invited to participate.


If you do not want to receive invitations to future US Banknote Contests, follow the instructions here
