Disambiguation link notification for March 27
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Morphallaxis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hydra. 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.

II’m not an expert on oleocanthal. If you want to include your research you need to learn about contributing to Wikipedia and get to work. 🙂 Dough34 (talk) 14:37, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

And get yourself a user ID on Wikipedia first. Dough34 (talk) 14:39, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Italic at Monotype system
I'm afraid that your edits contravene MOS:ITALIC. It may be that those words were in bold because they are redirect targets; if not then simple inverted commas will do fine. Can I leave you to correct it? 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 23:29, 17 October 2022 (UTC)


 * I've just reread the sections on bolding and italic. I don't see how I violated them, can you be more specific? I changed triple apostrophes (bold) to double apostrophes (italic). I'm not sure what you mean by "simple inverted commas". The word "inverted" is not used on that page and "commas" is used only once in a different context.  Dough34 (talk) 02:13, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * You changed words highlighted in bold to highlighting in italic, which the MOS deprecates. For example, you changed The width is set by special parts called "wedges" to read The width is set by special parts called "wedges". The correct change should have been simply The width is set by special parts called "wedges" (since this use of "wedge" is not redirected from Wedge (disambiguation). If it had been a redirect target, you would have to let it stand as it was. But it is not so your attention was definitely warranted because MOS:BOLD deprecates bold highlighting too.)


 * As for my "inverted commas", it is an en-UK term for quote marks, used unconsciously. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 11:55, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I made the change to italic because the article about the other major text setting machine (Linotype machine) used italic in that same context and I read this: "A technical or other jargon term being introduced is often being mentioned as a word rather than (or in addition to) playing its normal grammatical role; if so, it should be italicized or quoted, usually the former." I chose italic to match the Linotype article, personal preference and "usually the former". Dough34 (talk) 15:06, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
 * I've never spotted that one before. I concede. --𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 15:33, 18 October 2022 (UTC)
