Current issues

edit

The following could be improved on this page:

  • There is no longer a way for someone entering "Ghost" when searching for one of the song articles to get there.
  • There is a dictionary definition.
  • There are lines without blue (or red) links.

OK, I will work on this tonight and when I'm done, I'll post on your talk. Did I insert a dictionary definition? I didn't mean to. Enigmamsg 23:40, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Cool. I didn't look to see where it came from, but the first bullet in the See also section is what I was talking about as a dictionary entry. And if you think you understand my issues and see them as problems, I have no problem with you editing the page directly. If you don't think they are problems or have questions, then just ask here. But otherwise, edit away. (John User:Jwy talk) 23:51, 12 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
You mean the Other section? I didn't add that. This is what the page looked like after you reverted me. As you can see, it's still there. When I edited the page, I wasn't sure whether to outright remove it or not, so I just cleaned it up a little. It must've been added a while ago. I did remove a few other dictionary definitions, though, in my edit. Enigmamsg 02:29, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
I was just listing problems with the page, not your edit necessarily. "I didn't look to see where it came from." I'd say remove if you are in there - or I can come by later and make another pass. Looking good. (John User:Jwy talk) 04:43, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Fair enough. I had thought you were listing the problems with the edit I made. Doesn't matter. I removed the ghosting definition and wikilinked two TV series. There are still some improvements that should be made, but I have to finish with Wikipedia shortly for the night. Enigmamsg 06:17, 13 March 2009 (UTC)Reply
Looks good. I used to, in more anal-retentive periods, remove the least specific of the bluelinks on those lines that have more the one, but it isn't too busy to find the individual articles. Hope you've had a good weekend. (John User:Jwy talk) 17:25, 14 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Brevity for Call of Duty

edit

User:2602:304:cdc2:e950:293f:cc9:d973:1adc, I'm sorry that I didn't include an edit summary in my revert. We're just trying to follow MOS:DAB, which suggests that entries should be kept brief and just include enough detail to disambiguate between entries. And we should specifically have only one navigable link per entry. -- Fyrael (talk) 14:18, 26 July 2016 (UTC)Reply
