Linking
Mr. Northamerica1000, may you link List of Mexican dishes to ?

I could not. Thanks. --Opus88888 (talk) 15:51, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
 * ✅. See diff at Spanish Wikipedia. North America1000 22:35, 21 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Kind regards. --Opus88888 (talk) 22:38, 21 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Nope, you did not fix it, page in English links to

Thanks. --Opus88888 (talk) 22:42, 21 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Oops, now I see. I did the opposite of your request. Interestingly, at Wikidata (link) it states that List of Mexican dishes links to Anexo:Platillos mexicanos on Spanish Wikipedia, but when following using the link in the languages section of the List of Mexican dishes article, it redirects to Gastronomía mexicana on Spanish Wikipedia, which then redirects to Gastronomía de México. I hesitate to mess around with the redirects at Spanish Wikipedia, so in lieu of this, I have added a link to the Spanish article in the External links section of List of Mexican dishes on English Wikipedia.

 * Nice idea. Regards. --Opus88888 (talk) 16:50, 23 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Update – User:Yngvadottir fixed the matter (diff). The Español link on the sidebar of the List of Mexican dishes page now links directly to Anexo:Platillos mexicanos on Spanish Wikipedia. North America1000 00:27, 25 August 2015 (UTC)


 * Glad for the attention. --Opus88888 (talk) 19:25, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

Roast of Justin Bieber
I saw you edited Roast of Justin Bieber. Just wanted to say thanks for that. I couldn't figure out the right direction to take on that particular article, especially after it was written the way it was. Looks pretty good now, just needs expanded now.
