Disambiguation pages
editPlease note that disambiguation pages like Tirza are meant to help readers find a specific existing article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts you should:
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated
- Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references - Wikipedia is not a business directory

editHi there - Wikipedia relies on reliable sources to verify information, especially about living people. You didn't provide a source for your changes to the Len Carney article, and I couldn't find one either. If you have a reliable source please let me know and we can change the article. Please let me know if you have any questions. GiantSnowman 18:03, 3 March 2024 (UTC)

- I felt my edit was constructive in showing how she was subject to criticism, which was the point of the section
- Why do you feel it was destructive? 81.100.4.88 (talk) 14:07, 18 April 2024 (UTC)

editPlease refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Talk:Mercury (planet). Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. TJRC (talk) 18:11, 2 May 2024 (UTC)
Hello. Your recent edit appears to have added the name of a non-notable entity to a list that normally includes only notable entries. In general, a person, organization or product added to a list should have a pre-existing article before being added to most lists. If you wish to create such an article, please first confirm that the subject qualifies for a separate, stand-alone article according to Wikipedia's notability guideline. Thank you.

Please stop. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Supper at Emmaus (Caravaggio, London), you may be blocked from editing. Prince of Erebor(The Book of Mazarbul) 12:49, 26 May 2024 (UTC)
