 * From looking at your recent edits, you probably don't need the above references, but figured they're useful as a start for a talk page. Normally, edits from an account with a red-linked talk page and red-linked user page get higher scrutiny, as they are almost certainly new accounts. In your case, you've been editing for a while and creating a talk page for you removes one of those (literal) red flags. Regards, Tarl.Neustaedter (talk) 02:13, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Category alphabetization
Hi Papyrus-winged ninja Akil, I noticed that you had recently tried to alphabetize a number of articles by changing the target of their category linkage to "licensed, XYZ" (for example you changed "Popeye 2" to "licensed, Popeye 2". I'm not sure if you're aware but the effect of this is to locate all of the "licensed, XYZ" games under the letter "L" in the main category ("Game Boy platform games"). So we'd see something like:
 * A
 * Aardvark, Amsterdam Armadillo
 * B
 * Basket, Bedroom, Bismuth
 * C
 * Candlestick, Candy cane, Caramel
 * L
 * Asterix (1993 video game), Laughter, Licorice, Locomotive, Popeye 2, Yogi Bear's Gold Rush
 * Asterix (1993 video game), Laughter, Licorice, Locomotive, Popeye 2, Yogi Bear's Gold Rush

I assume that's not what you intended so I've reverted your changed. If you need help with how to properly categorize or alphabetize articles, I'd suggest asking at WP:HELPDESK. -Thibbs (talk) 10:32, 9 April 2014 (UTC)


 * One other thing: Please be more careful about your edit summaries. Comments like this are unhelpful because they don't accurately reflect the nature of the edit you've made. Only say something like "typo fixed" if you are truly fixing a typo. -Thibbs (talk) 10:34, 9 April 2014 (UTC)


 * I've noticed a similar problem with a number of mammal articles. Some of the changes are reasonable, so I've left those alone, but I've reverted those that create problems with the categorisation. Anaxial (talk) 19:28, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for November 8
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of rodents of the Caribbean, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cuniculus. 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.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Disambiguation link notification for January 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of fictional humanoid species in video games, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Amphibious ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/List_of_fictional_humanoid_species_in_video_games check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/List_of_fictional_humanoid_species_in_video_games?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.)
