Disambiguation link notification for February 2
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Premiership of Gordon Brown, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page John McDonnell (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Talk:Spanish_Civil_War
Hello Desde, I saw your post on the talk page but I was unclear whether you were saying the article should keep or lose its good article status. Please clarify. Also do you agree that the Spanish article is far superior and do you think it would be possible for it to be translated?

Spanish Civil War
Sorry for responding so late. I am still in the process of familiarizing myself with the conflict. I am currently started reading up on Günther Lützow who was a member of the Condor Legion. MisterBee1966 (talk) 15:48, 9 March 2015 (UTC)

The discussion took place on the talk pages of the Spanish Civil War article. You can also see the discussions when I listed the article for editing by someone from GOCE. The conclusion was that the article was not of good article. The article should have been promptly demoted following that discussion but it was not. Ultimately you can call something a Good Article but that does not mean that it is and when this happens it is the reputation of Wikipedia that is damaged. What motives are you referring to? I am lost on that one. Are you referring to the GOCE points system for awards? As a part time editor, who edits on a very part time basis for mutual community benefit - wiki has been useful for me - this is no interest to me. In addition I can confirm that I do not edit as part of my employment, or as part of my membership of any group, and I can confirm that I am not a member of any political organisation or group if that helps. Isthisuseful (talk) 10:47, 7 March 2015 (UTC)
 * Hello, I am referring to your "[a]n editor who has a fascination with war articles has unilaterally promoted the article to good article" comment. IMO, comments such as this are disparaging as you are questioning someone else's motive. Please try to assume good faith. Regarding what you have said regarding comments made on the GOCE page about the standard of this article, please provide a link to them, as I will not be able to find them otherwise. Regardless, please actually state which of the good article criteria you feel this article fails. That will allow others to determine whether or not they agree with you. You can find the good article criteria here: Good article criteria. Regards, AustralianRupert (talk) 11:43, 8 March 2015 (UTC)

If someone only edits military articles and nothing but military articles would it not be fair comment to say they are fascinated by military articles? I cannot see what is disparaging about that. Did the person unilaterally, without reference to me promote the article to good article? Did they fail to nominate the article for good article assessment? Was there a previous rejection of unilateral promotion of the article to good article? Have I asked for the article to have community reassessment of good article? Did I post requests for RCF on a wide variety of talk pages etc? Have I done that is possible to avoid going into an edit war?

La Guerra Civil vs The Spanish Civil War
Hello Isthisuseful~! As I can see you are good in Spanish, if possible, could you compare the leads of this article in both Spanish and here on English ? And tell me if they compare at a reasonable level, or if they differ. I'm not asking for a long and deep analysis, just the lead, briefly and in general. And possibly see whether they compare regarding the final reason for the outbreak of this horrific war. And only if you might feel it to be of some interest for yourself also. (And I'm sorry if I disturbed) Boeing720 (talk) 01:35, 10 August 2017 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for May 12
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Clement Attlee, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page James Murray ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Clement_Attlee check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Clement_Attlee?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.)
