Disambiguation link notification for March 28
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of people from Moscow, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Empress of Russia. 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.

List of people from Accra moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, List of people from Accra, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of " " before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

 * All sources are in the articles (no red links). All names have an article, in these articles sources are specified. Should the sources be mentioned twice? Both in the linked article and in the List of people from Accra? What's about List of people from Decatur, Illinois or List of people from Donetsk? --Dostojewskij (talk) 22:21, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
 * for comparison: List of people from Sherbrooke --Dostojewskij (talk) 21:43, 26 April 2019 (UTC)
