User talk:Rajmankad

I would like to make a wiki page on the economist Julie Nelson. There is an existing (very short) page on a TV Anchor who is also named Julie Nelson. I would like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julie_Nelson to refer to a disambiguation page with links to the TV Anchor and the economist. (Julie Nelson is a common name and I would imagine that there are more Julie Nelson pages to come.) Is there a way I can do that or does a Wikipedian with editor status have to do that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rajmankad (talk • contribs) 19:16, 8 August 2007 (UTC)


 * If the economist meets the notability requirements, you can create the article at Julie Nelson (economist), move Julie Nelson to Julie Nelson (TV anchor) or something like that, and create a disambiguation page at Julie Nelson. Hope this helps.  W ODU P  19:16, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * A little more: to move the page, click the move tab at the top of the page you want to move. If you have any questions, you can contact me on my talk page, check Questions, or leave   on this page, and someone will be around to help shortly.  W ODU P  19:18, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Hi Rajmankad! First of all, you are an editor, as am I, as is anyone who accesses Wikipedia.  You might have thought that perhaps an administrator would need to make such a change -- but this is not the case.  Anyone who has created an account (such as yourself) can move a page.  Follow the instructions on the help page WP:MOVE.  Oh, and on the disambiguation page you create, make sure to put hndis at the bottom -- this marks it as a human name disambiguation page.  (See WP:DAB and MOS:DAB for many further details on disambiguation in general).  Feel free to ask for help again or to message me if you have any other questions.

Thanks! I'll try out these instructions. When I looked I wasn't able to find instructions on moving a page. Now I know. --Mankad 20:00, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

I was able to create the new Julie Nelson (economist) page and I moved the Julie Nelson TV anchor to a new url, but I can't figure out how to create the disambiguation page. I've read the help section on disambiguation and still can't figure it out. I appreciate the help. --Mankad 20:24, 8 August 2007 (UTC)


 * Rajmankad, it's pretty easy. A disambiguation page is just a list, in a certain format, and then a template at the bottom that informs the reader that this is a disambiguation page.  See, for instance, 18th Street.  Looking at the source of that article, you can see what's necessary for your disambig.  The most important difference is, at the bottom, whereas 18th Street says roaddis because it's a disambiguation page for roadways, yours should say hndis, because it's a disambiguation page for human names.  --Iknowyourider (t c) 20:33, 8 August 2007 (UTC)
 * (edit conflict)Done. All you had to do was edit the Julie Nelson page.  Since it was redirecting to the TV anchor after your move, you needed to override the redirect by clicking on the link below the title that used to say "Redirected from Julie Nelson." Hoof Hearted 20:37, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:Kenyan Fish Vendor.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Kenyan Fish Vendor.jpg. Wikipedia gets thousands of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:
 * Image use policy
 * Image copyright tags

This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Media copyright questions. --OrphanBot 18:07, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Economics census
Hello there. Sorry to bother you, but you are (titularly at least) a member of WP:WikiProject Economics, as defined by this category. If you don't know me, I'm a Wikipedia administrator, but an unqualified economist. I enjoy writing about economics, but I'm not very good at it, which is why I would like to support in any way I can the strong body of economists here on Wikipedia. I'm only bothering you because you are probably one of them. Together, I'd like us to establish the future direction of WikiProject Economics, but first, we need to know who we've got to help.

Whatever your area of expertise or level of qualification, if you're interested in helping with the WikiProject (even if only as part of a larger commitment to this wonderful online encyclopedia of ours), would you mind adding your signature to this page? It only takes a second. Thank you.
