Those were nice edits from you on the James Madison page. It would be useful and nice to hear your support/oppose comments on the FAC review page currently taking place. The co-nominator Cmguy has been good at responding to the comments left by editors on that assessment page. Could you find some time to make some support/oppose comments on the FAC assessment page for Madison? ErnestKrause (talk) 15:58, 10 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

@ErnestKrause, thank you, and I'd be happy to comment and also pitch in when helpful. Great work getting the page to "close to done" status as per yesterday's coordinator note. Thinkinink (talk) 01:18, 16 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

Minor linking thing

edit

Hallo Thinkinink. Something I learned recently, it is generally preferred to use a redirect rather than used a piped link. Example [[hummingbird moth]] rather than [[Hemaris|hummingbird moth]] See:MOS:NOPIPE. The exception being if it goes to a disambiguation page rather than directly to an article, then use a pipe. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 20:17, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply

@MtBotany, thank you for sharing this info! I'd used the pipe because of the redirect, but this makes it clear I should change how I approach those. I very much appreciate your passing this along. Thinkinink (talk) 20:23, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
No problem. So it is one of the things I always mention because I did it wrong for about nine months of serious editing. I will be a long time cleaning up after myself. 🌿MtBotany (talk) 20:34, 21 November 2023 (UTC)Reply
