Please...

...tone it down. Your recent edits to a single user's talk page are not constructive. It doesn't matter that you are probably right about the subject you're referencing. Try to calm down about it; this is an encyclopedia, not a forum. If consensus can't be reached on the talk page of the article (which I see you started already), try WP:3O.  Frank  |  talk  14:49, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

March 2009

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on 2008–09 NBA season. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution.  Frank  |  talk  13:08, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Sit tight...

...see the quack section of my talk page. Don't get caught in any crossfire by getting involved edit warring.  Frank  |  talk  12:58, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

NHL based articles & templates

Howdy. Would you please stop adding diacritics to Teemu Selanne's name, at NHL based articles & templates? We don't use dios on NHL team articles & NHL team roster templates. GoodDay (talk) 20:14, 24 November 2011 (UTC)

I'm not adding anything, I'm simply spelling the man's name correctly, something you're obviously failing at. Also, I would be intrigued to see the discussion whose conclusion was to actually advocate using wiki-links that lead to redirect pages.

And while you're searching for the discussion, I suggest you take a look at the talk page of his article, wherein a consensus was reached to spell his name correctly. Antti29 (talk) 18:34, 25 November 2011 (UTC)

That's the Teemu Selanne article. On NHL based articles, we keep diacritics hidden or deleted. GoodDay (talk) 04:45, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

And where might I find this ruling, so I can review and probably discuss it? If that's what's decided, I'll conform to it, but so far I have just your word for it, and quite frankly, that's not enough. Antti29 (talk) 09:49, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Administrator Djsasso, will explain it to you. GoodDay (talk) 22:32, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for August 19

Hi. When you recently edited 1970 Boston Marathon, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Robert Moore and Patrick McMahon (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Dream Theater Train of Thought

I removed this entry from Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Log/2012 October 9 because no AfD page had been created yet. I am not sure whether you meant that you were seeking to delete Dream Theater Train of Thought, which is a redirect, in which case its deletion should be taken to Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion instead of WP:AFD -- or Train of Thought (Dream Theater album), the article itself, in which case you should follow all the steps at WP:AFDHOWTO. It's not clear to me what the problem with the article is anyway. The band appears to be popular enough that its albums would normally be considered notable enough to have their own albums. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 06:43, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

As a fan of the band, I wasn't trying to remove the article of the album. The redirect page just popped up when I was searching with the band's name and I noticed that it's completely useless (I really can't imagine anyone searching with "Dream Theater Train of Thought") and none of the other albums have such redirect pages. I was simply having great difficulty finding the information on how to delete pages. The help area of Wikipedia could be a lot clearer, I guess. I'll use the link you gave me.
