Disambiguation link notification for August 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Osborne bull, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Catalan. 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.)

Your recent editing history at Mexican Federal Highway 134 shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See the bold, revert, discuss cycle for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

 * @Tarl N. Huh? What edit war? All I did was add consistent article descriptions to a group of related articles, like Wikipedia repeatedly asks me to do. Celavin (talk) 07:29, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * You immediately reinstated an edit I had reverted. Please read WP:SDNONE for why your edit is inappropriate. In either case, if an edit of yours is undone, discuss it on the talk page before restoring it. Tarl N. ( discuss ) 07:33, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * @Tarl N. I didn't know I had reinstated anything. I was going down a search list of related articles looking for any with no short description. And I only got the dual notices of the reverted edit and the alleged edit war now - some 15-20 minutes after I finished off the list of federal Mexican highways. Celavin (talk) 07:36, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * I still don't understand why the submission was reverted. That WP:NONE article doesn't explain this. I added a description that a smattering of related pages already had; in fact, I made the descriptions uniform across the whole set of articles. And right now, if I open the article whose description you removed, I get a big prominent "+ADD ARTICLE DESCRIPTION" at the top of the screen. So what's to stop me or anyone else from adding a description to this article without knowing any better? Celavin (talk) 07:46, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
 * Your creation of a short description does not add any disambiguating information - indeed, it is less informative than the original title. The purpose of the short description is to help on mobile screen searches where you may get a title which isn't fully informative, the short description can help you disambiguate between results. An example is if you get a result "Bluebuck", a short description of "Extinct species of South African antelope" call tell you if that's the article you are looking for. When the article title is Mexican Federal Highway 134, it is unambiguous, and should have a short description of "none". The description you added of "Highway in Mexico" does not provide any useful additional information - indeed, effectively it is a copy of the title with less information. Please read WP:SDESC, in particular the examples under "Purposes" to understand what should go there. The short description is always paired with the title, so repeating the title is not useful.

 * I would add - it seems you added a whole pile of these kinds of inappropriate short descriptions. Please self-revert them. Tarl N. ( discuss ) 18:28, 3 September 2022 (UTC)
