Not quite sure what you were trying to add, but it didn't work.Naraht (talk) 17:27, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks, fixed. —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 18:03, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

So at end, just removal of the link to SCJ and the redirected link from the old Greek Letter Name?Naraht (talk) 18:31, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Yes. Per WP:MOSDAB, dab entries should usually just have one blue link. The reason for the magic word stuff is to allow AutoWikiBrowser to handle entries correctly without having to know if the links are red or blue - it's supposed to disappear after substitution (when my AWB script isn't broken). —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 20:17, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Ah, so the addition of the template, which then gets implemented in the save, avoiding the need to remove brackets by hand.Naraht (talk) 21:11, 11 February 2022 (UTC)

Correct. —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 11:08, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

Talkpage ban

Don't ever post on my talkpage or ping be again again. The discussion at WP:ITNC is fine, and there was no need to post a ping on my talkpage about it. Especially when it's a clear attempt to just call me "wrong", when all I've done is apply ITN rules to your nomination. Posting on my talkpage to object seems like baiting to me. Joseph2302 (talk) 15:08, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

Calm down ten thousand percent man. The {{ping}} template doesn't always work right, and I wanted an explanation, as a first time ITN nominator, since your reaction seems to me so counter to what the ITN guidance says. You act like I murdered your parents; does that seem like a reasonable level of emotion? —swpb^{T • go beyond • bad idea} 15:11, 16 May 2022 (UTC)

@Joseph2302: -- what the hell? As an uninvolved editor, your comments are way out of line. At worst, user:Swpb was being slightly annoying, but your reaction to it is an incredible overreaction. What happened to Assuming Good Faith? -- Rockstone^{Send me a message!} 05:53, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
