Disambiguation link notification for June 3

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Michael Clapp, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Commodore (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

{{Re|Eddie891}} my English language sources use both even when they are written by the same author. Is there a way to list it under both? ~~~~

If it’s inconsistent, I’d suggest picking one ( preferably whichever seems to be more common) and sticking with it. I’m editing via phone but once I get to my computer I’ll go into a bit more detail about how to be clear in this situation. Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 15:14, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

OK, so I've redirected ARM Guadalupe to the same page and added a hatnote clarifying. For the article at its current title, I'd suggest an introduction along the lines of

"The Mexican Navy steam paddle frigate Guadaloupe (also known as the Guadalupe) was the flagship of the Mexican Navy..."

You should use one spelling throughout the article after that clarification, to avoid confusing the reader. If you think Guadalupe is more commonly used, move the page to ARM Guadalupe and flip the two words. Hopefully this helps, and if this doesn't make sense, feel free to ask me for clarification.

Hello, GrognardJeff

Thank you for creating ARM Montezuma.

User:Eddie891, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process, had the following comments:

Looks pretty good! I've tagged some areas as needing citations. Please also consider that Find A grave is not generally considered a reliable source. Also, it is Montezuma or Moctezuma? Is this the same ship?

Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 12:42, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

@Eddie891: still working on this article. Moctezuma seems to be a contemporary spelling that has been superceeded by Montezuma in most sources. Still working on refining my citations. Having repetitive strain issues so it may take me awhile. Thanks for the reviews. GrognardJeff (talk) 15:06, 17 June 2020 (UTC)

No worries, thanks for your work! Eddie891 ^Talk _Work 15:11, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
