Proposed deletion of Kurt Wünsche
Hello, Curtainrail. I wanted to let you know that I’m proposing an article that you started, Kurt Wünsche, for deletion because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. If you don't want Kurt Wünsche to be deleted, please add a reference to the article.

If you don't understand this message, you can leave a note on my talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for July 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Edinburgh University Students' Association, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Avant-garde theatre. 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.

License tagging for File:Eusa logo 2016.gif
Thanks for uploading File:Eusa logo 2016.gif. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 20:05, 22 October 2016 (UTC)

Possible new TaskForce to improve lead paragraphs of politician articles
Hi Curtainrail. Thanks for the work you did on Paul Nuttall's intro. I'd tried to remove some of that superfluous biography myself but it was reverted. I managed to add the summary of his political views to the intro (last paragraph) though. I believe that the introductory paragraphs for politicians should be waffle-free and clearly state their political views, using existing referenced information from lower down in the article. I bet it's the only part of the article read by most people, so they deserve a clear and concise picture. In fact, I'm thinking of starting a TaskForce to this effect. Never done anything like that before. Don't suppose you'd be interested in helping with such a thing? Angry Candy (talk) 12:12, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 7
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited British Army other ranks rank insignia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Army Air Corps ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/British_Army_other_ranks_rank_insignia check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/British_Army_other_ranks_rank_insignia?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.)
