Charismatic
Encyo - it would be good to talk about moving charismatic to charismatic (Christians). There are a number of ways of dealing with disambiguation. Its good to add something to the talk page of an article you are planning to move, especially when there are active editors, to get a discussion going. I don't believe that there is a clash of usage, as it seems charisma and charismatic were getting on fine without the change. What do you think? Hyper3 (talk) 23:33, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Dear Hyper3. The reason for changing was that I found that charismatic linked to an article that only explained the usage as un umbrella term for certain groups of Christians. This is confusing when charismatic means having charisma and does do not refer to Christians at all. Examples: Winthrop H. Smith, Jr., John Sheridan (Babylon 5), Camp David Accords, Lena Phoenix, Kingdom of England, Snow_Crash, etc. In such articles I changed the link to charismatic . In all other articles I replaced it with charismatic (Christians) or charismatic movement. The new disambiguation page charismatic will help readers to decide which meaning of charismatic is meant. In order to create this page, I had to move the old page. It never occurred to me to discuss this first, which you would have liked. I apologise for this.

RE: How to resolve a mini edit-war
Question I put on User talk:Woody:
 * Dear Woody, since you were involved in a similar situation re. this article in November 2008, I would like to ask for your advice: what is the best action for the edit-war-like situation developing on Ernst & Young. The user who keeps on inserting the same fact is anonymous. I posted my opinion on his/her discussion page. We seem to disagree about what is encyclopedically relevant. Rlendog also thought it not relevant. Kind regards, Encyo (talk) 10:33, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi Encyo, I had noticed that a mini edit-war was developing. I also notice that there is no open talkpage discussion at this time. You should open up a discussion at Talk:Ernst & Young which outlines your reasoning. Invite the IP to the discussion and then generate a consensus on the talkpage. If they refuse to enter into a dialogue then consensus can be reached without them and if anyone fails to abide by consensus then appropriate measures can be taken. First off though, start the discussion and see how it goes from there. Regards, Woody (talk) 11:35, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the advice. I started the discussion on the talkpage. Encyo (talk) 12:48, 9 June 2009 (UTC)
