Disambiguation link notification for June 4
Latest comment: 10 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Wikipedia:Database reports/Categories categorized in red-linked categories
Latest comment: 10 years ago3 comments2 people in discussion
The backlog is back to 2100+ pages. How the hell that happened I don't know but consider my mind unblown. :-) Pichpich (talk) 16:54, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
Sigh. At least the bot is working again after taking a two-month holiday - it's about par for the course, there seem to be a bit over 100 new ones added in a normal week, with the occasional burst from the elections people or wherever. The bot seems to be working a bit differently now - it used to list in order of category age, which meant that the vandalised ones tended to congregate at the top, but at least most of the new ones seem to be year ones which are quite quick to knock off (at least compared to college ones...) I'm a bit tight on time at the moment, I'll see what I can do but no promises! In the meantime I've knocked off the IP edits on uncat cats, as they're almost always vandalism. Le Deluge (talk) 14:51, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Working on database reports is always a bit discouraging but the good news is that Wikipedia will not melt down if these categories aren't dealt with swiftly. I haven't been very active here lately either as I'm trying to help out at Wikidata. Cheers, Pichpich (talk) 15:24, 18 June 2013 (UTC)
Thank you

A while back, you expanded Baynard's Castle considerably. It's now a Good Article, so many thanks for all your work on expanding it back in 2010! Hchc2009 (talk) 16:47, 2 December 2013 (UTC)

Just thought I'd let you know that all the little edits you've been doing to make Wikipedia a better place have been noticed. Edwardx (talk) 17:25, 30 September 2014 (UTC)
Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to RFA Sea Crusader (A96) may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "{}"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
