Disambiguation
Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for your contributions and positive attitude. There are lots (scads and scads) of Wikipedia guidelines and a fair number of policies. Given your edit on the Kinnikinnick (disambiguation) page, I suspect that you are unaware of the disambiguation guideline and the Manual of Style for disambiguation pages. Disambiguation pages are not article pages and they have there own rules. Contrary to their initial impression, they are not index pages, nor an attempt to list everything that a reader might search for under a given term. Instead, they are solely for navigating to existing Wikipedia articles, and only with regard to separating out (disambiguating) the various meanings (targets) of the specific seach term(s) being disambiguated. As such there are two specific guidelines that you should come to be aware of if you edit disambiguation pages: (1) Wikipedia:Disambiguation If the entry you are about to make is a only a partial title match, and there is unlikely to be a confusion between the disambiguated term and your entry, then there is no need for the entry, and adding it would only add visual noise. See guideline. (2) Every entry on a disambiguation page should point to (link to) a Wikipedia article. The MOS says: Include exactly one navigable (blue) link to efficiently guide readers to the most relevant article for that use of the ambiguous term." The two choices for targets are articles directly on point, for the Kinnikinnick (disambiguation) page the example would be Bearberry; or to an article that discusses, or at least mentions in context, the ambiguous term. The MOS says: "If a topic does not have an article of its own, but is mentioned within another article, then a link to that article should be included. In this case, the link does not start the line, but it should still be the only blue wikilink." (There is a shortcut link to this rule MOS:DABMENTION). Using the Kinnikinnick (disambiguation) page as an example, "Kinnikinnick Prairie" should be listed something like
 * Kinnikinnick Prairie, the prairie surrounding Kinnikinnick Creek in southern Ohio

so that the entry has one, and only one, blue link to an existing Wikipedia article. Now, unfortunately, your entry runs afoul of both of these rules. (1) It is only a partial title match and there does not appear to be a significant risk of confusion. Although many of the other toponyms listed in the Kinnikinnick (disambiguation) page are also partial title matches, there is the possibilty that they are called just "Kinnikinnick" for short, the way "Santa Catalina Island, California" is called just "Catalina" by Angelenos. (2) You did not provide a blue link for your entry. If there had been a significant risk of confusion from your partial title match, you could have added "see List of school districts in Illinois" to your entry for a blue link, or possibly "in Roscoe, Illinois" would be better, although currently that article just calls it the "Kinnikinnick School District". I do not see a reasonable risk of confusion. --Bejnar (talk) 20:25, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

If what you really wanted was an entry in the Wikipedia for "Kinnikinnick Community Consolidated School District 131", you could have made a redirect to "Roscoe, Illinois". Although it would fall under the class of redirects to "sub-topics or other topics which are described or listed within a wider article", I would recommend against that course of action, primarily because it is not a likely search term. The much more likely search term is "Kinnikinnick School District". There are guidelines and policies that apply to redirects as well, and I'd read them first if I were you, before embarking on creating them. The basics are at Help:Redirect. Wikipedia:WikiProject Redirect is quite informative, and the guidelines are at Redirect. --Bejnar (talk) 20:25, 3 January 2016 (UTC)


 * Postscript: I added a citation to Kinnikinnick Community Consolidated School District 131 in the Roscoe, Illinois article. So, if you use the search function, the article will come up first. --Bejnar (talk) 20:25, 3 January 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Midwest Mozart Festival


A tag has been placed on Midwest Mozart Festival requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organized event (tour, function, meeting, party, etc.), but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

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 removed without delay.

Hello, Mortensen jon. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places, or things you have written about in the article Midwest Mozart Festival, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic, and it is important when editing Wikipedia articles that such connections be completely transparent.

 * avoid editing or creating articles related to you and your family, friends, school, company, club, or organization, as well as any competing companies' projects or products;

 * when discussing affected articles, disclose your COI (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to the Wikipedia article or to the website of your organization in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * exercise great caution so that you do not violate Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Please take a few moments to read and review Wikipedia's policies regarding conflicts of interest, especially those pertaining to neutral point of view, sourcing and autobiographies. Thank you. Drm310 🍁 (talk) 20:45, 27 July 2017 (UTC)
