Speedy deletion nomination of Ikanda


A tag has been placed on Ikanda requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G6 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic); or
 * disambiguates no (zero) extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ  17:53, 20 December 2017 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions. Please mark your edits, such as your recent edits to August 29, as "minor" only if they are minor edits. In accordance with Help:Minor edit, a minor edit is one that the editor believes requires no review and could never be the subject of a dispute. Minor edits consist of things such as typographical corrections, formatting changes or rearrangement of text without modification of content. Additionally, the reversion of clear-cut vandalism and test edits may be labeled "minor". Thank you. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 23:30, 14 September 2018 (UTC)

Overlinking
Hi, please note that en.WP is more restrictive in linking guidelines. We don't normally link common terms like "politician" or "Spain". Tony (talk)  05:28, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 13
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Francisco Miró Quesada Cantuarias, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page El Comercio ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Francisco_Mir%C3%B3_Quesada_Cantuarias check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Francisco_Mir%C3%B3_Quesada_Cantuarias?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Hello, I'm Iryna Harpy. An edit that you recently made to Talk:Asian Peruvians seemed to be a test and has been removed. If you want to practice editing, please use the sandbox. If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''As per my edit summary, I don't believe that the article is of top level importance for the Peru project, and I think that you need to gain a little more editing experience before you start rating the importance of articles to projects. I have no doubt that you rated the article in good faith, but there are far more important articles about Peru than the diasporic background of denizens. If you believe my evaluation to be mistaken, please take your rationale to the article's talk page in order to initiate a discussion. Thank you.'' Iryna Harpy (talk) 07:11, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

Sources needed for Days of the Year pages
You're probably not aware of this change, but Days of the Year pages are no longer exempt from WP:V and direct sources are required for additions. For details see the content guideline and the WikiProject Days of the Year style guide. Please do not add new additions to these pages without direct sources as the burden to provide them is on the editor who adds or restores material to these pages. Thank you. Toddst1 (talk) 23:40, 28 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Hi. It's useful to know of the new guideline, but is something I've always considered to be WP:COMMONSENSE. I wouldn't have thought that verifiability was an inbuilt precondition. Could you please let me know which article are you referring to? I can't recall making changes to such a page/article. I've had a look at the category in case in triggered my memory, as well as my editing history... but I'm still at a bit of a loss. Thanks, in advance, for the clarification.

I had far too many windows open and, after closing most of them, somehow came to the conclusion that the message was my own talk page. No wonder I couldn't find a relevant article!

New Campaignboes
Hello 2x2leax ,

I see you recently created several campaign boxes. Can I ask for more reasoning behind this? I'm not sure these are useful or sustainable. I've read quite a bit about the Revolt of the Comuneros and I don't believe there's sufficient English sources to write an article about each individual battle aside from the two that already have battles; that's why I created Military history of the Revolt of the Comuneros for information about the various minor battles. Doo you believe that all these articles can some day be created? If they can't be, we don't need a campaign box. SnowFire (talk) 21:43, 14 October 2020 (UTC)

Edit Summaries
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.

Edit summary content is visible in:


 * User contributions
 * Recent changes
 * Watchlists
 * Revision diffs
 * IRC channels
 * Related changes
 * New pages list
 * Article editing history

Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting. Thanks! You rarely use edit summaries, despite the fact that you have made over 4,000 edits. Might I suggest you spend a little more time learning our most basic rules? Thank you. --David Tornheim (talk) 13:33, 24 December 2020 (UTC)

Burgundy cross
Hello, I have removed the Burgundy Cross because it is not a flag proper to any viceroyalty. I know it is imposed in the Wiki ES. If you want we discuss it or go to the cafe for a third opinion. Vicentemovil (talk) 10:28, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * It is a very interesting article that explains the Mexican symbols. It says absolutely that there was no flag that properly identified the viceroyalty of New Spain. It is categorical: " No existía propiamente una bandera que identificara al virreinato de Nueva España " pp 99.
 * I propose that as the burgundy cross is a precedent of the Mexican flag we could agree on something, but making it clear that there is no flag of the viceroyalty, as the reference you provided says.
 * Vicentemovil (talk) 17:22, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
 * The opinion of the journalist César Cervera who signs the news item in the ABC newspaper cannot be considered a reliable source since he does not provide any reference to corroborate. It is very strange that on such a relevant topic there is no reference no books or even no history articles. I propose the same to you, let's try to reach an agreement to keep the journalist's opinion in a neutral way.

C21 year in topic
Hello @2x2leax, I hope you're doing well. I was just viewing your recent two edits to the template Template:C21 year in topic, and wanted to ask for your clarification on one thing. While the edits were for the most part constructive, you removed the wikilink to the year in anime articles, and provided no edit description. You also marked the edit as minor, which it was not. I agree for the most part with the other formatting you did, and the edition of the year in Brazilian music wikilink you added, but am still confused about the removal these pages, and wanted to ask. Cheers!  Johnson 524  (Talk!) 01:25, 17 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I do want to clarify I mean no disrespect with this comment, as you have been on this platform for a large while longer than I have, but I wanted to hear what motivated you to remove that link. Thank you again,  Johnson 524  (Talk!) 01:33, 17 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I saw that topic and most of them are composed by lists rather than how topic in year articles look like. And considering that most important animes are mentioned on animation in year articles, I thought that having them were redundant. If you think that what I did is wrong, you can undo it. --2x2leax (talk) 15:16, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh no it's fine, as long as both links are there. The same with every 'year in' article, if they are not listed on this template, they fall into obscurity pretty quickly. If you want to try to delete the 'year in anime' article series, I have no objection to that if you think they are worthy of deletion, but until then, I'm trying to keep those articles centralized. Thank you again for your additions to the template, cheers!  Johnson 524  (Talk!) 00:04, 2 August 2023 (UTC)
