Hi. In Vietsovpetro, you recently added links to the disambiguation pages Enterprise, Russian and Vietnamese (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Nationality templates
Please stop replacing textual statements of nationality in infoboxes with templates. The problem is, we do not put flag icons in infoboxes, see MOS:FLAG. Yes, the templates exist for other contexts, but should not be used inside infoboxes. Yworo (talk) 18:48, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Vikram Pandit
Hi - I removed this because I'm not sure, but I think you were just trying to provide his Mother's name but it was in a sentence that was describing where his father worked. Or perhaps you were saying she worked there too? Feel free to re-word and add it back in if it can be clarified. Thanks. 7 05:08, 2 February 2012 (UTC)


 * The intention was to provide his mother's name and additional details, if any. Lack of online references led to the incomplete construction of the line in question. The revision looks structurally better. Thanks, Julius

1973 Oil Crisis
I'm afraid I've had to revert your changes here, with the edit summary "Reverted changes. I'm afraid you cannot just change all the references to your preferred date format and expect them to still work. It doesn't operate that way." Your changes broke all the references, which to work properly have to stay as they are written or the software won't find them. Britmax (talk) 14:24, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
 * Noted, That was a mistake from our side. Adding only reference, ref name=OC-73-00 to be linked to the code. Thanks, Julius


 * These things happen. Reference 24 doesn't work now, you may like to find out why that is ( I don't think it was part of your error). Incidentally posts to this page are signed and dated with four tildes (4 x ~). Britmax (talk) 14:41, 20 February 2012 (UTC)

Hudson Global, Inc.
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Hudson Global, Inc., and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Hudson Highland Group. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page&mdash; you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. MadmanBot (talk) 07:09, 4 May 2012 (UTC)

Cable & Wireless
Re the above, in my view the time has come to create a separate Cable & Wireless article which addresses the history of the company pre the 2010 demerger. The advantage of this would be to create a single place for the pre-2010 history to be developed (which is highly eventful and capable of a much expanded treatment), rather than two articles developing in parallel.

What are your thoughts?Rangoon11 (talk) 18:26, 28 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Hello there. Yes, that is an excellent idea. My thoughts -    1) In the series of mergers, divisions & spin offs, we cant predict which entity ( CWW or CWC) will carry fwd the 'C&W' brand name in the years to come.    2) The original Cable & Wireless page could be used to populate the historic data, instead of the redirect to CWW. A reference - British Aerospace   3) Finally a tag ( not accurate )  Cheers Jean Julius  Vernal 19:29, 28 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. Yes good point about the future and the analogy with British Aerospace/BAE Systems is true. Sadly the likelihood is that Vodafone will drop the Cable & Wireless name, and that Cable & Wireless Communications will also be acquired. Rangoon11 (talk) 00:07, 29 June 2012 (UTC)


 * It is my pleasure, and let us see how it unfolds. Thank you too for correcting some of my edits - especially Supermajor and Nomura Securities. Though it was a small contribution for my side, the minor touch ups were the headings/lines and words I was searching for. Jean Julius  Vernal 17:07, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Siemens-Reiniger-Werke AG
A tag has been placed on Siemens-Reiniger-Werke AG, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to an article on another wiki.

If you can fix the redirect to point to a mainspace page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you are fixing the redirect. If you think the redirect should be retained as is for some reason, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion  tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the article's talk page directly to give your reasons. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. – Wdchk (talk) 02:22, 30 June 2012 (UTC)

GlaxoSmithKline
Hi, I am currently trying to develop the lead of the above article and am meeting a complete failure to engage with what I feel is a perfectly reasonable draft, and certainly a big improvement on the current lead which fails to cover multiple key aspects of the topic. Your input would be appreciated on the talk page. Rangoon11 (talk) 00:13, 15 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'll put some thoughts, and if possible some restructured wiki pages (later) in my Sandbox. An initial glimpse suggest that a solution similar to the ones we discussed earlier - i.e. for historical reference purpose and economic analysis of the trend of M&A during a specific decade / year - it is wise to maintain separate company pages. In this case, bare minimum requirement is to maintain two separate pages for the two prominent predecessor companies of GlaxoSmithKline plc - GlaxoWellcome plc and SmithKline Beecham plc.


 * M&A is a never ending process and will continue in years/decades to come, and if we tend to use the redirect option for every M&A for easier maintenance issue - we will loose the most crucial historical references - such as categories like years established / disestablished, predecessor / successor companies. Useful data for economic analysis of the trend of M&A during a specific decade / year and why it happened. Most imp are details of the micro events ( such as a missing of contract which led to shares tumbling ) that caused a macro event ( a mega merger). Even some useful info - like the historic logo used.


 * An example : splitting of GEC Plessey Telecommunications and Marconi Communications and reading along with the details of Siemens Communications - would somewhat ( though not fully) cover multiple key aspects of the evolution. Hope the same approach will help in the case of GSK by bringing leads and cross references to predecessor companies. Cheers Jean Julius Vernal 08:41, 15 July 2012 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your reply. I fully agree with your comments about the need to maintain separate articles for major predecessor companies. Today I discovered the much neglected Glaxo Wellcome article, which I have done some work on.
 * There should be a separate article for SmithKline Beecham too.
 * If you could add your thoughts to the discussion on the GSK lead at Talk:GlaxoSmithKline then that would be great.
 * BTW - I haven't forgotten about C&W - it's on my list!Rangoon11 (talk) 18:42, 15 July 2012 (UTC)


 * You are welcome. Absolutely, I will put a thought. Jean Julius Vernal 22:31, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

Redirects
Hey, Jean.julius! I see that you've been making some redirects. That's great! There is something to watch out for, though: don't make redirects that point to other redirects (also called double redirects), as you did with Barclays DCO, among others. The Wikipedia software won't follow more than one redirect for performance reasons, so if, say, the page "foo" redirects to the page "bar", and "bar" redirects to page "baz", anyone who goes to "foo" will be stuck at "bar", with nothing on their page but a funny arrow and a link to "baz". So, if you make a redirect, just be sure that the page you're targeting isn't itself a redirect. A pretty handy tool that can help with this is User:Anomie/linkclassifier; if you install that tool according to the instructions, links to redirects will show up in green, which makes them a lot easier to spot. Thanks! Writ Keeper &#9863;&#9812; 13:44, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes, I noticed that. It was a mistake from my side. My intention was only keep Barclays Bank (DCO), but somehow I ended up with Barclays DCO, Barclays (DCO) and so on. I ll have a look. Thanks again. Jean Julius Vernal 13:49, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
