Disambiguation link notification for May 8
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Iguania, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Acrodonta. 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.
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 10:09, 8 May 2017 (UTC)
Fixing automatic taxoboxes
editI see that you reverted a few of my automatic taxoboxes, because the data in them is (to the best of your knowledge) outdated. If you find outdated or incorrect data in an automatic taxobox, please fix it in the following way:
- In the taxobox, on the line which says "Scientific classification", there is a picture of a pencil; click on it.
- If the taxon with the incorrect parent is not the one you loaded the page for (the bottom one in the taxonomy box for genus or higher, genus for lower taxons), find the correct taxon in the "Ancestral taxa" box, and cliock on the "Taxonomy" link next to it.
- Edit the page. Find the "parent" parameter, and fix it.
- If the new taxon doesn't have a taxonomy template, you will get a message that makes this clear; click on the "create page" link, and you get an edit box with the template and its parameters; fill them in and save.
- Return to the article you're fixing, and verify that the fix was made by doing a null edit and then checking the page.
