Thank you![edit]

Thanks for your work in cleaning up Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links/Disambiguation pages that link to disambiguation pages/43 (which is now finished, but for a few hard cases which likely will require the writing of articles to conform to those links). Would you like to collaborate on another section of this list? Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links/Disambiguation pages that link to disambiguation pages/10 looks like fun: Bozo to Bunge. bd2412 T 02:47, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well done. Let's pick another - discussion at Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation pages with links/Disambiguation pages that link to disambiguation pages#Next?. Cheers! bd2412 T 13:24, 6 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Soviet[edit]

I do not agree with your changes to the Soviet page. Soviet is the English transliteration of the Russian term Совет. Please discuss matter on talk page before further reversions.Harrypotter (talk) 09:44, 9 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The "Templates with disambiguation links" page's dirty secret[edit]

Hi Schmloof, just to clarify the behavior you're seeing - the Templates with disambiguation links page is generated once daily, but if a template in that list is edited - for whatever reason - after the page is generated, that template is dropped from the list for that day. A bit sloppy, I know, but it saves time by preventing people from trying to fix templates that have already been tackled by someone else. The side-effect of this is that, in the times when templates are edited for non-dab fixing reasons, they'll still drop from that day's list. I'm guessing on your 750 day someone must've been doing some mass template editing. Cheers! --JaGatalk 09:41, 11 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Cold shoulder (phrase) listed at Redirects for discussion[edit]

An editor has asked for a discussion to address the redirect Cold shoulder (phrase). Since you had some involvement with the Cold shoulder (phrase) redirect, you might want to participate in the redirect discussion (if you have not already done so).

Template:Fulton County, Arkansas[edit]

Thanks for fixing the county seat link. When I was creating lots of county templates like this one, I encountered problems with communities such as Salem, so someone with much more template coding abilities than I solved the problem; please see my change to the coding.

The article Storm Riders (TV series) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article is on a rather unpopular show with virtually no information about it.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{dated prod}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
