Mattlore (talk) 20:06, 9 March 2016 (UTC) Old drafteditHello there. I was looking through old Draft space pages that hadn't been edited in a while and saw Draft:Fyodor Bogorodsky which you created over 2 years ago. Were you intending on coming back and finishing working on it to get it to acceptance? If not would you consider deleting it to not make a land grab claim on the title? If you don't respond back in one month I intend to nominate the page for deletion on the ground there is not one verified fact on the page. Hasteur (talk) 19:49, 12 March 2016 (UTC)

Article moveeditArticle keeps on being moved by newby accounts without consensus: Jack Carlson (ice hockey). May need some protection. --Midas02 (talk) 07:01, 17 March 2016 (UTC)
Trump cards as primary topiceditMy rationale on pointing trump cards to the trump card dab page was that there was no clear primary topic -- should it be suit (cards), the most recent target before today? That seemed less like. Should it be Major Arcana, the suit of trump cards? Or should it be trump, which was the former target of trump card? (The last seems like actually the least appropriate choice, since it's a discussion of the concept of the singular trump card.) None of these seemed clearly unambiguous, so I directed it to the dab page. Regards, NapoliRoma (talk) 22:37, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
DabmentionseditWell, I learned something from you today... Haploidavey (talk) 21:17, 22 March 2016 (UTC) Two FootballerseditYou recently moved drafts on two English footballers from Draft space to article space. However, they indicate that the two players played in the Football League. In modern times, the Football League sometimes is and sometimes is not a first-tier league in accordance with association football notability guidelines, because the articles didn't indicate whether they were playing at the Football League Championship level. I moved the articles back into draft space and declined them, because otherwise they risked being nominated for Articles for Deletion. If they played at the first-tier level, please update the articles to indicate that clearly with a reliable source. Moving them back to draft space seemed less disruptive than risking having them nominated for deletion, because you can always edit the articles and resubmit them.

However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. TacfuJecan (talk) 22:05, 26 March 2016 (UTC) Phantom EagleeditUnderstood. I goofed. I guess the cross universe frustration got the best of me. I think it should be about Marvel since the sources prove that Marvel is the primary topic. As for the Fawcett Comics character, there can be other options for his placement. I personally don't think a discussion would have been very active. There are such things as page moves that don't need consensus. But I agree that the last one I did could be considered controversial. My humbles apologies. Happy editing!

Could you do the move? --Midas02 (talk) 03:13, 30 March 2016 (UTC) John HoodeditHi... again. A very junior editor has been moving a primary topic. I can see his point, but it merits an RM discussion. Can you quickly nip this one in the bud? I'd like to start a move discussion once the article's been shifted back. --Midas02 (talk) 03:30, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
PereiaeditCplakidas has done a cut-and-paste move of a dab page here. I guess the page history should be restored. Whether the 'Greek word' article should be the primary topic, I'm not convinced. On WP, the word will mostly be used for linking to a particular location, not to a description of its historical meaning. --Midas02 (talk) 03:22, 3 April 2016 (UTC)
"No consensus for a page move"editHi! I saw this reversal of my page move, which I wasn't aware of until now. Do you object to this move? The reason why I moved was to disambiguate between other German schools with the name "Humboldt" in Spanish speaking countries. I believe this is a reasonable move, and I can WP:Be Bold as long as it's not "reckless". I don't see how such a move is reckless, nor have I seen any previous discussion regarding this move.

Si Trew (talk) 05:20, 5 April 2016 (UTC) Rewrite of lead at List of federal judges appointed by George W. BusheditI did a rewrite of the lead at List of federal judges appointed by George W. Bush as I felt the current lead was inaccurate. It formerly read:
It now reads:
The new lead makes it clear that while this is a comprehensive list of Article III Judges, it is only a partial list of Article I Judges and has no Article IV Judges included. The previous lead would lead somebody to believe that this list was a comprehensive list of ALL Federal Judges of all types, which is obviously not the case. Also, Bush made 327 Article III appointments, not 325, because the former lead omitted Trade Court appointments. I am running this by you (and one other frequent WikiProject USCJ contributor) for comment, before I make similar corrections to the other list articles. @Snickers2686: I am pinging you to read this, as you are a frequent contributor to WikiProject USCJ as well. You are welcome to comment on this as well. Safiel (talk) 02:50, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
St. John's warteditI'm not sure what you thought you were doing to "fix" my edits. But, in effect you have just added to the confusion by boldly moving it to a title it has never been at before. Yes, It's complicated. Are you familiar with Special:MergeHistory? I used that to address a dab-content fork. The dab was at St John's wort (disambiguation) and now that's redirecting to the primary topic which a (disambiguation) title shouldn't do. wbm1058 (talk) 00:19, 9 April 2016 (UTC) So hopefully you read the rest of the talk page before you submitted your RM. This all was started by the edits of the Man in Question, who created a good-faith fork of the original dab. I hist-merged in the older edits from November 2013 to January 2015. I guess the sight of the {{incoming links}} template upset you a bit, but can we at least propose a move to the most likely consensus title based on my analysis in the earlier section? wbm1058 (talk) 00:40, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Kentucky Supreme Court justiceseditWhile working on Walter Arnold Baker - just moved to main space - I noticed that there appears to be another missing justice that is not on your list. His name is William S. Cooper, though I'm not sure how best to disambiguate the article yet. BTW, Baker had a long career in the Kentucky General Assembly and only a brief tenure on the court, so I chose not to use "judge" as a disambiguator for him. Acdixon (talk · contribs) 18:12, 15 April 2016 (UTC)
Not seeing this as an improvement, since its moving the pointer from a page to a redirect to that page, and one that contains an additional unnecessary word at that. Herostratus (talk) 16:43, 17 April 2016 (UTC)
Line drivereditOddly, it looks like we have no reasonable article to link for the intended meaning of "line driver" in the Amplifier article, in spite of the semi-helpful words on the disambig page. Dicklyon (talk) 02:57, 18 April 2016 (UTC) I believe I will change Line driver to be an article. I don't think the distinction that it is drawing is very meaningful, but if it is it can fit in the article. Dicklyon (talk) 03:02, 18 April 2016 (UTC)
Curious, why all the redlinks on Shelly Peiken? The last one, Lifeline by Anastacia is blue, but the rest are red. Three others, added by other editor(s), are red as well.

Dab challenge questioneditHi BD2412! Last month, you posted on my talk page that "As of now, there are 1,224 pages with more than 5 incoming links. If we can bring that number down by 225 before the end of the month, then we will have bridged the gap between the main list and the bonus list, and every single disambiguation link in Wikipedia at the beginning of May will count for the contest."

However, when I was looking through the list of PolBot entries marked for deletion, I found one that was NOT entirely merged and noted that the user who marked the entry for deletion was NOT on the edit history for the corresponding judge article. So I am going to eyeball ALL of the Polbot entries marked for deletion to ensure they have actually been properly merged. I am notifying you on your talk page, since, as far as I know, your the only administrator aware of this particular deletion category and request that you do not delete anything from that category. Thanks and I will try to get through that as quick as possible. It shouldn't take me too long, as their are 50 entries total, of which 37 I need to check, the other 13 being ones I have merged and marked for deletion myself. I will notify you when I am done and it is safe to delete. Safiel (talk) 21:54, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Title and name disambiguation pageeditHi.

Hello, I was wondering about your recent edit to the above. There is a Christchurch in Dorset in UK and the article shows Stiller to be active in the South of England. However the link as it stands currently goes to Christchurch in New Zealand and it is also known that Stiller has lived abroad at several times in his life. See Alan Jones (racing driver)#Formula One for one instance and the article also shows him in the US. If you have something that confirms his location please add to the article as appropriate.

I visit to ask if you could promote and to mainspace, by moving them. There exist about 7 separate "List of county courthouses in STATE" articles now, and I would set up redirects from "List of county courthouses in STATE" to the corresponding section in the U.S. list for all the others. They're unfinished but fairly extensive and including all or nearly all NRHP-listed items. I personally think they're obviously mainspace-worthy. I would rather continue developing them in mainspace, so that others can find them and contribute to them also, instead of developing their own sandbox versions, duplicatively and yet formatted differently. I have just come across a sandbox version for a list of Texas ones, developed more than my new Draft:List of county courthouses in Texas, and have invited its author to move it to mainspace. I also came across a sandbox version of Florida ones. cheers, --doncram 23:23, 19 June 2016 (UTC) Nomination of Pavel (disambiguation) for deletioneditThe article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Pavel (disambiguation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion.
