revision to Barrera
Hello littlewink, I wanted to ask you why you felt it suitable to reduce the article by half of its contents? The contributions I made were all with citations and validated information that were appropriately sectioned off to make a great article. You removed quite a bit of very informative subject matter. I wanted to see if you would please revert the changes you made to this article as it took great time and effort to improve it. If there is something that I could change, please let me know I would gladly change it, but please let the format stay as it makes a better article. Many thanks littlewink,cheers.Jaimecarballo —Preceding undated comment added 01:01, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi! Thank you for your effort in improving the article. I didn't remove any info which had a reference. I removed a couple of entries of persons which were listed twice, and the statement that Barrera comes from a 'family originally lived beside a gate of fence' was also mentioned twice. With my edit I also applied the formatting described at the standards for surname articles. Having the same surname doesn't make people notable, so they are listed as 'neutral' as possible. Other surname articles do not have images of persons (even the one about Roosevelt for example), to avoid 'promotion' of a small number of persons. Regards, LittleWink (talk) 13:24, 7 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you so much,I did review it and you are correct, there were some duplicates, my oversight and my apologies. The reason why I wanted to include a gallery is that it does make a article that much more interesting. It references a quick visual of individuals whom have made a difference or have played an important role in society. Being that this is a surname, it would be great for those with the surname to have some type of identifiable role in their ancestry. It truly does make for a better article with visual references. Would you please reconsider and allow to incorporate the gallery section in this article? It would really make it better. Also, there is another article that I found and its relatively a beginner article, the case is such that it is a surname and also a city, located in Spain. The article is "Villacorta". Could you add a (disambiguation) page to it. Make the main page "Villacorta (name)" and have a "for other uses see "Villacorta (disambiguation). I'm relatively new to editing and don't quite know how to do this. Thank you again littlewink, you have been really helpful, cheers! Jaimecarballo (talk) —Preceding undated comment added  22:28, 9 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Hi again! Regarding Barrera: I still don't see why adding a gallery with to the article is of any value for the reader. If your intention is to make the article more interesting visually, why not add a couple images at the side? I just re-added two images. Given the length of the whole article there may be room for another one.
 * Regarding Villacorta: the place in Spain doesn't seem to have an article at the English Wikipedia, so there's nothing to disambiguate. Is it Villacorta on Spanish Wikipedia? Please translate that article first at e.g. Villacorta (Riaza). Cheers! LittleWink (talk) 15:12, 10 November 2015 (UTC)


 * Thank you littlewink! The article looks better. For Villacorta, it is in the Spanish Wiki, I will translate it and when its complete I will get back to you. Thank you once again and have a great one. Jaimecarballo (talk)Jaimecarballo 18:54, 10 November 2015 (UTC)

Autovia
I don't know if I'm doing this correct, please bear with me. The Autovia Mulliner bodies car Reg. EYX 464, pictured in the panel was owned by my father for many years. I was with him when he bought it as a non-runner. A Master Mechanic, he had it running by the weekend, undertook much work on it with me and my brother as helpers. When the engine needed reboring, the strip down and rebuild was done on our kitchen table (Mum was very patient)! The car was a gem, I was fascinated by the centrifugal clutch, so simple and effective - most people assumed it was a fluid flywheel as the gearbox was manufactured by Armstrong-Siddley and a centrifugal clutch was unheard of on the whole. If you own the car, feel free to contact me for more information and pictures. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chewdadda (talk • contribs) 07:56, 26 April 2016 (UTC)

Dutch
Dear LittleWink,

You reverted my edit to this article (explicit reference to Deutsch). I see your point. However, the confusion between (really) Dutch and Deutsch (German) seems to be systematic in US English (phonetically close), and i feel that your version does not address this problem. Best regards, Hansmuller (talk) 12:02, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Can we find a satisfactory way to explicitly settle this confusion?
 * Hi Hans. 'Deutsch' is already listed in the see also section of the 'Dutch' disambiguation page. That's enough according to WP:MOSDAB, but we could add a Distinguish hatnote for convince. LittleWink (talk) 17:06, 28 May 2016 (UTC)
 * @LittleWink, Hi LittleWink. You're right, Deutsch was mentioned twice, so i removed the second one. We're too late for "Not to be confused": it was already confused in the 18th century probably... Cheers, Hansmuller (talk) 19:49, 28 May 2016 (UTC)

APO: descriptors for Indian persons
Hi and thank you for tidying up the mess at Guha (surname). I agree with all of the changes except one: shortening Bengali fiction writer to writer. India is a pretty big place and saying "Indian" is just about as specific as saying "European". Anything that helps narrow down the focus is a good thing: for example, for politicians it's best to specify which state's legislature they work in, and for creative professionals who work in the medium of a language (writers, singers, filmmakers, actors...) it's customary to make a mention of that language. Of course, there are cases where this is inapplicable: there are actors who've worked in the cinema industries of several languages and for them it's best to omit the language description altogether.

Michael Collier
Hello, I wanted to ask, why are there two Michael Collier pages? Aren't they the same person? I find it odd how both were born in Phoenix, Arizona in 1953 and that both wrote The Folded Heart? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Collier_(author) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Collier_(poet)

--Electricmastro (talk) 21:23, 5 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi Electricmastro. Good catch! It's because someone (Micheal Collier himself?) overwrote the article about the British author Michael Collier (author) with content about the American poet Michael Collier (poet). I've reverted the edits to British author. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 12:23, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

In a tweet by Stephen Cole, he mentions that Michael Collier is a pseudonym he used to write those three Doctor Who stories, so might as well mentioned that: https://twitter.com/SteveColeBooks/status/783570553277931521 --Electricmastro (talk) 17:31, 7 October 2016 (UTC)
 * All right, the article about the British author should be merged into Stephen Cole (writer) then. (note to self: pseudonym also mentioned at tardis.wikia.com) LittleWink (talk) 21:55, 7 October 2016 (UTC)

Blat
Hi, thank you for cleaning up on Blat, including moving Blat, Lebanon to Blat, Jbeil District.

I normally edit  (mostly villages/town) histories about Israel/Palestine; but these last 2-3 months I have been (trying!) to clean up the Lebanese villages/towns. It has been a horrible mess (so far I have discovered 6-7 villages where there were 2 articles (under different names) about the same village....)

Firstly: Every scholar of the Middle East have mixed up various village with similar sounding names.... Benny Morris, Walid Khalidi, Israel Finkelstein....just everyone. I think I became aware of the problem back in 2011, see Talk:Tira, Israel: Petersen is a professor of Middle East archeology....and totally mixed up the different  Tiras......(and the Taybeh (disambiguation)s etc)

You write here that "people who mix up won't arrive here, but at Blat"....you could equally have said that people who end up at Tira, Israel would not be looking for/mixing it up with Al-Tira, Haifa...but that is exactly what happens, again and again! Mostly it is because people simply are not aware of there being more places with the same name. (And remember; historians typically (also) use sources from a time when the divisions of districts was quite different from today).

In short; I have found that a "For other places with similar names, see .....etc.." link at the top of the page is a very helpful tool... Cheers, Huldra (talk) 23:23, 8 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, thank you for your message. I know the Romanizing of Middle Eastern place names can create confusion. . But, although WP:NAMB has been challenged in the past with the argument hat hatnotes are always helpful (e.g. this RfC), we cannot anticipate every (Google) search. When hatnotes are violating WP:INTDAB and WP:NAMB, which was the case here, I boldly remove them.
 * I saw you created the redirect Blatt, Lebanon, so a hatnote is helpful now. The hatnote at Tira, Israel is helpful because it links to the possibly sought Al-Tiras, but I don't think the hatnote at [Al-Tira, Haifa]] is necessary because the disambiguator Haifa is pretty specific, and - especially - because the link to the disambiguation page exists in the first sentence of that article. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 12:26, 9 October 2016 (UTC)

Battle of Gaza (1917)
The redirects from these three pages to Battle of Gaza are seriously useless and are unhelpful to readers: They all relate to the battles in 1917; and have nothing to do with the battles in 312 BC, 217 BC, 1239, 2007, 2008-09, 2012 and 2014. That was why I made a WP:IAR DAB page. Narky Blert (talk) 01:33, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
 * British West Indies Regiment
 * William Courtenay (filmmaker)
 * The Grenadiers
 * Hi. Well, having the twee entries forked on a separate page is equally (un)helpful IMHO. I can't see why this is needs a different solution than . If you really want an article at 'Battle of Gaza (1917)', that cannot be a disambiguation page. Create a Set index article with summary style content to explain the relation and/or differences between the three battles. LittleWink (talk) 13:49, 14 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Many thanks for the helpful suggestion! An SIA looks the way to go. Now, to read up WP:SIA and the three main articles before writing a summary article (which is all most readers will need anyway).
 * It's an unusual case: offhand, I can only think of two other pre-modern battles fought in the same campaign by essentially the same troops over essentially the same ground after a breathing-space - the First and Second Battles of Wissembourg (1793) and the First and Second Battles of Zurich (1799). Narky Blert (talk) 01:14, 16 October 2016 (UTC)

You're right
You're right when saying that the Hashem page is not a disambiguation page. Do you think that should perhaps be changed? Debresser (talk) 13:24, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Hi, thanks for your message. That page shouldn't be converted in a disambiguation page, IMHO. The usage in Judaism also a name, although not an "official" given name (HaShem also does not redirect there). LittleWink (talk) 13:36, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Good argument. Thanks. Debresser (talk) 17:21, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Nowcasting
Why take away in related articles to Nowcasting since this terms means means different things?

Pierre cb (talk) 03:20, 9 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes, it has different meanings, but we have disambiguation page Nowcasting for that. Searching readers arriving at one of the meanings have searched for 'Nowcasting' + something else, so it is unlikely that they were confusing that topic for another meaning.

Belmont Prisons
What do you consider the primary topic for Belmont Prisons to be? London Buses route 80 would be unlikely to survive an AfD if it were created.-- Laun  chba  ller  22:07, 8 April 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi. You're probably right. IMHO "Belmont Prisons" should redirect to the article about the place all three things are located, either Banstead or Belmont, Sutton. That article should describe the bus terminus and route in relation to the prisons. Because as far as I see it only the bus terminus is referred to by "Belmont Prisons" alone (the prison articles do not mention "Belmont Prison(s)"). LittleWink (talk) 20:37, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

General Ernouf
Hi LittleWink, I really don't see how throwing away information helps anyone. You may feel that "General Ernouf (ship)" provides excess information, but why do you think you speak for all readers? How about someone visiting Guadeloupe, or reading a tourist history seeing the name, looking it up, and discovering that they had to make a further click to find what they were looking for? Sure you screwed them up only a little, but why do so at all? Please revert your moves. Acad Ronin (talk) 22:57, 9 April 2017 (UTC)

103rd Regiment of Foot (disambiguation)
Hi - I am confused as why you have removed this disambiguation page and simply redirected the page to the 103rd regiment. The 103rd Regiment of Foot is the only regiment of foot out of 135 regiments of foot (ignoring the ones where only one regiment existed in the first place) not have its own disambiguation page. The treatment just does not seem to be consistent. Thoughts welcome. Dormskirk (talk) 20:00, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Ship index
Hi LittleWInk, the problem is that often the first person to write an article about a ship simply gives the article the title e.g., "Excalibur (ship)", preempting a disambig page. Sometime when I have tried to move such pages I have run into opposition on the grounds that as there are no other pages about other vessels named "Excalibur", there is no reason to add info about which "Excalibur" we are talking about. Even when such changes are not reverted, converting a page that was an article into a disambig page can be laborious because of the number of links that have to be changed. Regards, Acad Ronin (talk) 19:54, 20 September 2017 (UTC)
 * . Hi also. Yeah, I understand your position, but naming those articles 'ship index' didn't seem right to me, looking at the characteristic of recognizability of article titles, since 'a ship index' is something that 'we' invented. In other words: the page about ships named Excalibur and of the type 'ship index' (something a Wikipedia reader might not care about), not about a ship index named Excalibur. Just my 2 cents... LittleWink (talk) 20:17, 20 September 2017 (UTC)

Category tag on dab page
Hi, in your edits to pages such as H24 you've changed it to use a direct category tag rather than using a parameter of the dab template. Can you explain the reason for that change? Isn't it better to use the template parameters (e.g. for consistency of dab page syntax)? DexDor(talk) 20:27, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Hi. Your comment about consistency in relation to Letter-Number Combination Disambiguationgot me thinking:
 * Only have the format you mention.
 * Consistency for who? We should do things to serve the reader, not the editor, and I assume 'we' created Template:Letter-Number Combination Disambiguation for this reason only (?). If not, then the template can be deleted and the corresponding category a maintenance-category...
 * Anyway, my reasoning for the change: A letter-number combination disambiguation page has that article title format. The page itself does not contain 'several items of that type' AND 'several items of another type' - which is the common use for disambiguation parameters - ALL items are of that type. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 13:59, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Re the "Wikitext" page
Hi Little Wink,

I've been trying to assist newbies with learning and understanding Wikitext, thus my recent attempt to enable the "Wikitext" page to actually have a link to a helpful list of Wikitext codes that we use around here. You were correct that Wikitext is not an "ambiguous" term, and a disambiguation page may not have been the best use of that "pagespace." Your reversion has caused me to decide to turn that pagespace into a full fledged article about Wikitext. Just wanted to let you know.

Thanks,

Scott P. (talk) 05:37, 5 October 2017 (UTC)


 * PS After no response from you, I went ahead and did this, however you went ahead and changed the article into a redirect without attempting to discuss any of this with me. The primary reason for the focus on the term "Wikitext" as opposed to "Wiki markup" can be found on the current Wiki markup article's talk page.  Before you make any further moves or redirects for this set of articles, could you please discuss this with me there?
 * Thanks,
 * Scott P. (talk) 22:00, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I didn't redirect it, see, I only added the section to the redirect. Wiki markup earlier this year. That article also had Wikipedia self-reference issues, and not enough context or secondary sources to justify an own article. Please also note that Wikipedia is not an instruction manual on wiki basics. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 13:22, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Exponential map
Sorry about not giving a reason for reverting the change to a SIA. The page should be a disambig page since the concepts, exponential map in Riemann geometry and exponential map in Lie theory are distinct concepts.

Chin Music for the Unsuspecting Hero (Foster the People song) & others.
I have marked this and other R from ambiguous page for the simple expediency that they are duplicate titles to redirects already created i.e. Chin Music for the Unsuspecting Hero and Chin Music for the Unsuspecting Hero (song). This also forewarns other editors that the simple form already exists and saves duplicates cats been added. I have reverted 3, I shall revert all your changes, after a period of time - long enough for a debate here if required. --Richhoncho (talk) 18:00, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
 * PS. If there is a song at one place, then variants cannot be the song? Also you might like to see look at this conversation on my talk page unnecessary disambiguation. --Richhoncho (talk) 18:40, 8 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi. The explanation line of R from ambiguous term clearly states:


 * This is not true for the redirects you mention here, because the article titles aren't ambiguous. (There is only one !) So, whatever the 'problem' is what you are trying to solve here, cannot be used. As far as I can tell only R from song is a usable template here. Cheers LittleWink (talk) 11:32, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
 * You didn't read the discussion on my talkpage did you? Chin Music for the Unsuspecting Hero is a redirect from a song, the other 2 redirects are not from songs because they are duplicate, misspelling, superfluous to requirements. It is, as I have already said, a way to stop all three Chins being tagged with categories. Makes life so much simplier, don't you think? I really don't understand your objection to not having repetition. --Richhoncho (talk) 12:28, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
 * Yes, I do understand what you are trying tot do, I only disagree with your solution. These redirect should not have repeated content categories, like Category: songs. But being a duplicate, a misspelling, or superfluous to requirements does not mean you can tag them tagging with . And since Category:Redirects from songs is a maintenance category, duplication in that category is allowed, unless there is some policy that states otherwise? LittleWink (talk) 11:59, 18 October 2018 (UTC)


 * . Hi, it seems we have somebody who does not appreciate the solution we found back in January. Doesn't appreciate that if XXX is the song, then XXX (song) is an unnecessary disambiguation. Not sure he read the conversation we had on my talk page, but you will note I left a link. Any other solutions here or is this going to be repeated every time another editor says 'I don't like that.'--Richhoncho (talk) 21:12, 18 October 2018 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on IMDS (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is an orphaned disambiguation page which either
 * disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
 * disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
 * is a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 07:11, 15 June 2020 (UTC)

Oops, sorry about that. Got a little carried away, should have done an RM—thanks for correcting me. Best - Aza24 (talk) 19:50, 26 January 2021 (UTC)

IEV
Regarding the three disambiguation scenarios: I don't think that an IATA code is that commonly known and used (except for those who work there), thus it quite natural for me to apply the first solution. IEV is just an abbreviation, which currently three explanations. --Gunnar (talk) 21:48, 24 October 2021 (UTC)
 * 1) disambiguation page (standard solution)
 * 2) primary topic with hatnote link to disambiguation page (if priority is obvious)
 * 3) primary topic with hatnote link to a single alternative article (if priority is obvious)
 * Hi. You may be right (I didn't look into it), but please use the Requested move process. Because IEV (disambiguation) already exists, that page has to be moved to preserve the page history. And someone could reasonably disagree with the move because the current redirect hasn't changed since 2005, and the disambiguation page was created at the current location (instead of at IEV).
