Mademoiselle

Hello, I saw your query over at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page and set up a disambiguation page for you. Please create the album article you wanted at Black Sun (Mademoiselle album) and all will be well. :) NerwenGreen 03:39, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Thanks NerwenGreen. How woudl I have created that disambiguation page myself (so I know for future scenarios)? Thanks Aslam nathoo 04:08, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

It's a bit complex, but here's what I did:

a) Moved "Black Sun (album)" to "Black Sun (Primal Fear album)" using the "move" tab at the top of the screen (it's to the right of "history"). This caused "Black Sun (album)" to become a redirect page. That is, if I'd left it alone at that point and someone searched on "Black Sun (album)", they would've reached "Black Sun (Primal Fear album)" with a little note under the title that said "redirected from Black Sun (album)." For an example that is still working, try Naked (Marques Houston's song).

b) Editted "Black Sun (album)" - this was possible because, at the redirect note on the "Black Sun (Primal Fear album)" page, clicking on where it redirected from it'll take you to the page without redirecting you. (Try clicking on the little note on the "Naked" example above.) So I deleted the redirect code and replaced it with "{{disambig}}" to get it to become a disambiguation page, then added the text for the two albums (and also some links for "Black Sun" which is a disambiguation page as well). After that maneuver, "Black Sun (album)" was no longer a redirect page.

c) After that point, it's good to cleanup to remove double redirects. That is, if you click on the "what links here" in the sidebar toolbox (under the search box), you get a list of every other page that makes a link to the page you're looking at. So I went down the list and visited each page, found the old link to "Black Sun (album)" and changed it to "Black Sun (Primal Fear album)" to get it to point to the new location.

All of the code is visible if you click "edit" on any of the pages mentioned above and look at the code. A redirect is coded as "#REDIRECT [[correct page]]". In fact, clicking on "edit" to look at code is how I learned a lot of these tricks myself - it's very useful.

Hope that was helpful. :) NerwenGreen 07:41, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Mademoiselle (band)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Mademoiselle (band) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Victão Lopes ^{I hear you...} 23:27, 28 October 2010 (UTC)
