Ambiguous link
editYour recent edit to SMS Tegetthoff included one or more links to the page German, which is a disambiguation page. This type of page is intended to direct users to more specific topics. Ordinarily we try to avoid creating links to disambiguation pages, since it is preferable to link directly to the specific topic relevant to the context. You can help Wikipedia by revising the links you added to SMS Tegetthoff to refer directly to the most relevant topic.(This message was generated by an automatic process; if you believe it to be in error, please accept our apologies and report the error to help us improve this feature.)

Disambiguation link notification for April 10
editHi. When you recently edited Italian Civil War, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages OSS and Federal (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.

Biografie degli atleti italiani
editCiao Pigr8, nonostante ne stiamo discutento in IRC, scrivo anche qui, perché qui...manent ;-) In merito al tuo apprezzato contributo alla voce Giacomo Leone, io avrei cercato di creare uno standard per le biografie di atleti italiani, ovviamente basandomi sui quelle esistenti dei principali atleti internazionali. Le modifiche che farò a Silvano Simeon sono lo standard che auspico. Capisciammè che praticamente su en.wiki dobbiamo cominciare da zero, anche i nostri più grandi atleti hanno voci un po' di cacca. --Kasper2006 (talk) 16:30, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
Credo Reference Update & Survey (your opinion requested)
editCredo Reference, who generously donated 400 free Credo 250 research accounts to Wikipedia editors over the past two years, has offered to expand the program to include 100 additional reference resources. Credo wants Wikipedia editors to select which resources they want most. So, we put together a quick survey to do that:
- Link to Survey (should take between 5-10 minutes): http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/N8FQ6MM
It also asks some basic questions about what you like about the Credo program and what you might want to improve.
At this time only the initial 400 editors have accounts, but even if you do not have an account, you still might want to weigh in on which resources would be most valuable for the community (for example, through WikiProject Resource Exchange).
Also, if you have an account but no longer want to use it, please leave me a note so another editor can take your spot.
If you have any other questions or comments, drop by my talk page or email me at [email protected]. Cheers! Ocaasi t | c 17:28, 11 July 2012 (UTC)

If you're interested in helping out, please drop a note in the next week at my talk page or shoot me an email at: jorlowitz gmail.com.

This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail.
