Hi. When you recently edited Kakongo, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cabinda (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Qalat
Is it possible that you could correct any errors yourself, and I note that the article currently doesn't mention that the term is as widespread as you say. I can only work from what is given.Mddkpp (talk) 11:56, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Talk
hi. I addressed your argument about "not always part of it in the past". On the article Talk. See what I said here. Thanks. Hashem sfarim (talk) 20:58, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Further response
I said this:

Well then you're not looking carefully, because the "new argument" (for example) was one in addressing one of yours, about "not always part of Italy in the past". I refuted that argument reminding you that many other regions of Italy were not considered part of a unified whole until recently anyway. Number two, as far as "readability", that's just your opinion that it's not readable in saying it the way it is with "region of southern Italy" in the opening sentence. The point is saying it in the opening as well as "Medit Island" is not so "unreadable". Why should it be? It's accurate and is way more consistent with other regions of Italy is the point. Not that major a deal. But in principle not something that should be rudely reverted (with no explanation) at first, simply because of taste. Hashem sfarim (talk) 21:38, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Archive links
I was wondering what your reasoning is for adding archive links to references that are still live, such as this one when we usually add an archive link to references that are dead links. The archive link will still be there after the live link no longer exists so it seems like you are doing unnecessary work where there is actually no need. BTW archive links are usually done like this using the archiveurl and archivedate fields within the "cite" templates. I'm curious. ww2censor (talk) 15:59, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

South Pacific Division
I undid the "merge/redirect" that you did for a couple of reasons:
 * The edit caused a double redirect.
 * The section in the USACE article is merely a summary to show how widespread USACE is in the US.
 * A stub article should be expanded where possible, not deleted unless no further information is available.
 * Further information on SPD is available (I just don't have the time to flesh it out); and a main article can be a valuable resource to researchers if it exists.
 * Having a stub versus no stub acts as an encouragement to editors (i.e., the public) to improve the article per Wikipedia guidelines.

Have a great day! Don&#39;tKnowItAtAll (talk) 18:39, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Response to your reply
I understand where you are going, but the only reason there is no expansion of these stubs is that there are only so many things one can do in a day. I started watching the various USACE-related wiki articles because of NPOV problems, but I can't fix them all (right now). I tinker more than anything at this point and usually just watch my watchlist.

As for notability, a quick Google on us army corps of engineers "south pacific division" revealed 17,900 hits. It is probably like that for the other divisions.

I hear what you are saying about content forking. It could potentially be a problem; however, it depends on how it is done. Each District and Division has different "centers of expertise" in an attempt to minimize redundant work effort. I think that these would be interesting to researchers, but I don't have the time to research for independent notable articles that are not written by the subject organization itself. Exploring/explaining all that in the main USACE article would make that article too big (IMNSHO, it is already too big per Article size). And that is also why I removed many redlinks in the main USACE article since there was little likelihood of getting any article on those subjects started in the foreseeable future. In general, I see it more as splitting an article.

As for the article titles, that IS a problem. I did not create the articles. They could be -- should be -- moved to more appropriate AND consistent, more self-explanatory titles. But that doesn't mean that they need to be eliminated. Don&#39;tKnowItAtAll (talk) 19:20, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Lumi rivers
Hallo, As there are two rivers called Lumi, neither of which is massively more notable than the other, they both have disambiguated article titles and the disambiguation page should be at Lumi River. We only need a page at "Xyz (disambiguation)"if there is an article at Foo, the "Primary usage" of the title. I am moving the disambiguation page to its correct title.

Template:History of Iran
Hi, can you come back to the page of Template:History of Iran and its talk page, and gave your inputs? I saw that you've raised several objections in the talk page about the new non-collapsible template that User:Qara xan has created, and told Qara xan that it is pending further discussion. However, the user has not responded to the subsequent questions in the talk page and keeps reverting efforts to restore the older template as there has not been a consensus for the new one. The user's explanation of the reverting has also been quite incoherent, with comments such as "First learn History of Iran after tell your mind" and "Vandalism. You talk too much".--DerechoReguerraz (talk) 06:41, 22 August 2012 (UTC)

Your Stamp Upload on Tusi
Hi Can you fix the date on this stamp. I believe the correct date is the Iranian year 1355/1356..which coressponds roughtly to 1976 (circa when Tusi passed away). Thanks--108.18.145.11 (talk) 11:57, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I agree that 1976 seems much more likely. It's closer to the 1974 "700th anniversary" and the style of the stamp seems more like 1976. I attempted to verify the date using Scott's Postage Stamp Catalogue, but I could not find it listed there, which probably means that it is a revenue stamp and not a postage stamp. That it says "Iran" and not "I. R. Iran" or "Republic Iran" means that it cannot be after the 1979 revolution. I don't know what reference I might have had six years ago when I uploaded this image.  I'll see if I can find the 2003 Revenue Stamps of Iran somewhere to verify the date.  Thank for bringing this to my attention. --Bejnar (talk) 20:47, 16 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for looking into it..the stamp is definitely pre-1979 as you noted.--108.18.145.11 (talk) 03:09, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Merge all Force Protection Wing HQs
Good Evening Bejnar

I have replied to the post you created on 19 October 2010 on Talk:RAF Regiment called "Merge all Force Protection Wing HQs here" agreeing that RAF Force Protection Force Headquarters could be created. Today i created the article, you are free to edit it if you wish, the headquarters section is missing at the moment but i'm sure someone can fill in it. Can you please go to the Merge all Force Protection Wing HQs here section and close the merge discussions then if you want change the two article to redirects (or i could if you wish), the information has already copied to the new article?

Northern Mbundu
I did not quite understand your redirects. Which is the term you consider as mnost commonly used: Northern Mbundu (introduced by European ethnologists, unknown in Angola), Mbundu (which in Angola as well as internationally is increasingly given up in favour of Ambundu or Akwambundu, i.e. with the plural prefix), or Kimbundus (which is used by Portuguese and other Europeans who don't know Kimbundu is just the languege spoken by the Ambundu)? -- Aflis (talk) 22:59, 24 September 2012 (UTC)
 * My comments about frequency were not about the names but about the topics, as I was doing disambiguation. Of the articles on Google scholar and the current English Wikipedia which use the term "Mbundu" more than 80% use it to refer to the Ambundu whose article currently on the English Wikipedia is at Northern Mbundu people, not my choice. Generally the term Ovimbundu is used preferentially for those people at the current article Southern Mbundu people, again, not my choice of title. With any luck, no articles currently use the Mbundu people redirect page, but past usage suggests that if in the future they do so they would be most likely referring to the Ambundu, hence it currently points to the Northern Mbundu people article. There is a dab hatnote at the top of the article to catch any false drops.  If someone suggests a move of Northern Mbundu people to Ambundu, I would support it. (The redirects would follow the move.)  See WP:Requested moves. As to the languages, where I found someone using Mbuntu, I tried to check their source, again the more likely target was Kimbundu, as in the dictionary by Amandus Johnson.  Again, I did not name the articles, so the article about Kimbundu is at North Mbundu language, etc.  Again I suggest going through the formal move process. I hope this helps you understand the choices I made, it was not about the names.  If you have a more specific question, I'd be glad to try and answer it. --Bejnar (talk) 05:55, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your explanations. I am indeed entirely in favour of changing the titles "Northern Mbundu" to "Ambundu", and "Southern Mbundu" to "Ovimbundu". And, of course, of "Northern Mbundu language" to "Kimbundu". Which by the way, corresponds to the use I found in other Wikipedias - I edit mostly in pt:WP, but frequently have a look at fr:WP and de:WP. What I don't know is how to proceed in en:WP so that the titles are changed. -- Aflis (talk) 09:45, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

Copied from my talk page: :@Bejnar: I think I have basically understood the process, but your intuition is right: I never feel comfortable with such procedures, whether in WP or elsewhere. I am thus happy (and relieved) that you have taken the lead, and yes, if you are ready to go on with Ambundu and Kimbundu, please feel free to do so. -- Aflis (talk) 20:47, 25 September 2012 (UTC)

local Sparta Historic District
Hi, i notice you seem to be doing some nice work. I think this edit by you removing a redlink to Sparta Historic District (Ossining, New York) should be reversed by you, if I understand correctly that there is a local historic district that is worthy of a Wikipedia article. You indicate the worthiness of it, and suggest article creation, by creating the redlink. It's not circular. Maybe there is a policy statement about it, at Red link? Redlinks help the wikipedia grow... :) Anyhow, keep up the good work. -- do  ncr  am  01:01, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

Ruben Canelo
Hello, Bejnar! You might be interested to know that somebody is still trying to have an article here about "Lord Professor Ruben Canelo of Studley". You successfully nominated the Ruben Canelo article for deletion at Articles for deletion/Ruben Canelo, and you were the one who had the insight that the "Lord of Studley" title was almost certainly not real. Since then a new SPA created a new article Lord Professor Ruben Canelo of Studley which was speedy-deleted.

Festus v. Festus
Hey, Bejnar, I acknowledge that this can be tricky, but I think you need to revisit your disambiguating of Festus to Festus (historian) or Sextus Pompeius Festus. If the ref to Festus mentions the edition of Mueller (or Müller) or of Lindsay, sometimes just designated as M or L, it's Sextus Pompeius Festus. Cynwolfe (talk) 17:26, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks! I work in this area a lot, and I only rarely see refs to Festus (historian). The other Festus is particularly likely in contexts pertaining to Roman religion and customs. Cynwolfe (talk) 17:41, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I'll double check when you're done. I'd also guess that if the citation is given by page number, it'll be Sextus. From what I known of the historian, he would be cited by a section number. Cynwolfe (talk) 18:02, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I'm very impressed by your carefulness in this. I'm in a bit of a dash at the moment, but yes, there are different excerpts and so forth of Festus the lexicographer. If you find a Festus in connection with Paulus, it's the lexicographer, because that refers to excerpta. An s.v. will mean the lexicographer, because it's referring to the entry rather than a page number in an edition. Flamen Dialis would be the lexicographer. Will try to remember to get back to this.

Citing jw.org
Hi. Thanks for your help – the URL you found is actually very useful, because it gets closer to the "destination" than I had managed to get. Using the "View source" function in IE, I can grab a list of the four-digit codes that are used for each county, and substitute the relevant one for the county I'm interested in. If I add an explanatory note in the citation template (something like "Click Search on this page"), I reckon that should be a sufficiently robust citation. It is a rather strangely designed website, but never mind! Kind regards, Hassocks  5489 (Floreat Hova!)  22:58, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

Please take a look at this
Hi, Im wondering if you could help me with something, After another user commented on the List of Presidents of Colombia on being too complicated to read and full of misleading information, which was true, it prompted me to take some action and attempt do some changes and clarifications, specially because its not just this page that has misleading, unclear information, but every page relating to one of our "presidents", their vice presidents, first ladies, government ministers, elections, and the general way Colombian history is told in wikipedia in relation to its leaders and constitutional stages, and by fixing this list it can provide a guideline to fix and edit the relating articles and help in the making of future ones. So after a lot of research I have made some adjustments focusing on the constitutional presidents, like it should be, in any case could you take the time to look over what I've done in User:Mijotoba/List of Presidents of Colombia and give me your opinion and advice, it's hard to find other users from the Colombian wikiproject who may be familiar with its crazy history, and I wanna make sure that Im getting enough feedback before i make the changes in the actual page. Thanks. mijotoba (talk) 01:48, 22 November 2012 (UTC)

The name Scadoxus
Apologies, my earlier edit was very misleading. The Coombes book says that the origin of the name is "obscure" but means that it's unclear as to what the origin of the name is, not that its name means "obscure". So I've tried to clarify it to combine what you wrote and what I tried to write. Peter coxhead (talk) 15:58, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
