hey
It is a good idea, the problem is that I have articles that I can't get rid of once I do the move. Like this

You can see a whole bunch of them here:

Disambiguation link notification for September 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lackawanna River, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Green frog. 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.

Robert Battle
I withdrew my AfD based on your sources, thank you for improving the article. The argument that the Argentine League is on par with those in WP:BASKETBALL is bullshit and it has caused me to reverse my opinion on keeping that in the guideline. I plan to pursue removing that from the guideline, which I am sure the anti-sports crowd will be all over. Rikster2 (talk) 17:33, 17 September 2016 (UTC)
Ugly Wife - Chuck Granby
I didn't think the Ugly Wife speech was notable until I saw it was mentioned twice in two different NY Times articles, a New York Post article and other articles as well. [1] [2] [3]. The google hits for it are pretty big [4]. I am not saying it should have its own article like JFK's Ich bin ein Berliner but I believe it can be included in the article.
BlackAmerican (talk) 13:57, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
I tried to put it up but I don't think I put it up correctly. As a result it was reverted. Can you please fix it as you described. Thank you. BlackAmerican (talk) 08:52, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Help with Cliff Clinkscales
Hello, could you please fill out the rest of the College career section of the Cliff Clinkscales article? This includes details of his freshman through senior seasons at DePaul. You don't need to make it very detailed, because I will fully expand later. I am asking you because you are a member of the NBL Canada WikiProject and my ultimate goal is to make this a featured article (because it has the potential). If you have time, feel free to reword any phrases in the article that seem off. Thank you. TempleM (talk) 01:16, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Thought that might interest you! Hope you're well! You're probably about 26 now right ;-)?♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:31, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Things years back didn't stand a chance really of development but wikipedia is reaching a stage now where we're really starting to see people come together more to develop this, and it is now possible to pull something off for Africa and areas which would never have been possible before. Sign up at Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon if interested, see the planned prizes on the 10,000 Challenge talk page.♦ Dr. Blofeld 14:44, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Enos Luther Brookes
I couldn't find anything that made him notable as of yet and didn't want to have to deal with a CSD or an AFD. Did you find anything notable yet? BlackAmerican (talk) 17:02, 24 September 2016 (UTC)
Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We'd like to invite you to participate in a user study closely related to SuggestBot. User:Another Article is seeking to understand more about the workflow and time commitment of contributors to the English Wikipedia. As part of this study you will occasionally be prompted to answer questions about your editing activity, and these questions should never take more than a minute or two to complete. The intended length of the study is two weeks, but your actual time commitment is totally up to you. If you would like to see more details you can read the project proposal at Research:Measuring editor time commitment and workflow (on meta), but if you are feeling bold and would like just like to sign up right now you can add the line importScript("User:Another_Article/workflowstudyclient.js"); to your common.js. Contact User:Another Article if you have any questions about this study!
