Ordinals
Just a heads up that your ordinals edits break wikilinks used by Template:NZ parlbox (sorry – no documentation) as happened here. The whole series of New Zealand parliaments uses ordinals (e.g. 5th New Zealand Parliament); is that something that doesn't align with naming conventions?  Schwede 66  02:45, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

Short descriptions on dab pages
Hi, please don't add short descriptions to dab pages. There was a discussion at some point last year, where it was decided that short descriptions of dab pages should not be added individually, but supplied by the disambiguation template, which all dab pages have. – Uanfala (talk) 12:44, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Where? I have re-read the discussion at Template talk:Disambiguation since your revert, and it does not seem to say that. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 12:52, 2 September 2019 (UTC).


 * Wikipedia_talk:Disambiguation_pages_with_links/Archive_14. – Uanfala (talk) 12:58, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The idea that the disambiguation templates should transclude is a good one, and receives support there.  There is no established consensus that they should not be added to dab pages, only two people refer to that, and its by no means clear that they are suggesting that dab pages should be prohibited from having explicit short descriptions.
 * Explicit short descriptions, as well as potentially being more apposite, allow editing of the short description by naive users, and also work the same way as short descriptions on most pages in namespace 0.
 * All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 13:41, 2 September 2019 (UTC).


 * If that's really what you get out of that discussion, I can only urge to reread it. – Uanfala (talk) 13:45, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I would agree, for the sake of consistency, that we should not be adding these without an explicit mandate to add them. Adding them to disambiguation pages runs counter to the purpose of the short description, since disambiguation pages have no description separate from their title. bd2412  T 14:08, 2 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes, please stop adding these to disambiguation pages. older ≠ wiser 14:39, 2 September 2019 (UTC)

Really necessary?
Rich, is this sort of stuff really necessary? You've been lighting up my watchlist today with various gnomish things that seem to make no odds to how an article is displayed. Perhaps your version is tehnically more correct but it is the sort of thing that would be better corrected while making more substantive contributions to the articles. And on at least one of the others, relating to a UK subject, you tried to add the use ddmmyyyy template thing when there is absolutely no doubt that such is the applicable date style precisely because it is indubitably a UK subject and no-one has been fighting to change stuff to mmddyyyy etc. - Sitush (talk) 23:06, 3 September 2019 (UTC)

Redlinks
Hi - I notice that you have added a number of redlinks to articles. Please note that per WP:REDNO if you are adding a lot of redlinks you are really expected to be actively working on building those articles. I appreciate you may be about to write these articles but can I suggest that you wait until you have actually drafted them? Sorry to be a pain but thanks in anticipation. Dormskirk (talk) 22:07, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I think you may be mis-reading REDNO, it says "Editors who add excessive red links to navboxes are expected to actively work on building those articles, or they may be removed from the template." This is fair enough.  In general redlinks are to be welcomed, provided they are to suitable topics, and preferably at the "correct" name.  All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 22:30, 8 September 2019 (UTC).


 * Note that even the navbox guideline might be ignored, for example I would not be inclined to remove redlinks from the following navbox, even if no-one was actively working on it:


 * All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 22:30, 8 September 2019 (UTC).


 * I am not asking you to remove redlinks. I am just asking you not to add them unless you intend to write the article imminently. Best wishes. Dormskirk (talk) 22:38, 8 September 2019 (UTC)

Bold move of A.S. Lodigiani

Expanding template abbreviations
Hello,

I've noticed you expanding abbreviated template names, like ill or ubl in a few places. I don't know that this is a big deal, but I do find the compact version easier to read, and sometimes by chance, it avoids a line wrap in preview mode, which also increases readability. I'm not aware if there's a policy or guideline or style guide that applies specifically to expanded vs. abbreviated template names. While WP:NOTBROKE isn't specifically about Templates, it does concern redirects, which is what abbreviated template names actually are, so that could be seen to apply, here. In what way do you think that coding "interlanguage link" or "unbulleted list" is an improvement to an article, over the shorter versions? Or, were these special cases, only applying to the particular articles which you changed? Thanks, Mathglot (talk) 23:18, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I've seen a lot of these in the last few days, and have traced one of them to . Essentially, you have reverted without consensus to do so. Template talk:Unbulleted list is relevant. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 18:05, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
 * The one is due to, resultant changes haven't popped up on my watchlist. -- Red rose64 &#x1f339; (talk) 18:13, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I also prefer the compact easy-to-read abbreviation. --Gerda Arendt (talk) 18:29, 10 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Redrose64, thanks for finding that. In other changes to AWB rules, I've noticed this one regarding replacement of the redirect template "Infobox:MP" by its target "Officeholder". This seems contrary to WP:NOTBROKE, and has other problems. Rich, I've raised this discussion about it. Cheers, Mathglot (talk) 20:35, 10 September 2019 (UTC)
 * There's also the thousand or so edits to change bya to birth year and age. Seems a bit excessive to me, especially when the "significant" edit associated with it is actually a minor one already being handled by a bot. Primefac (talk) 18:22, 12 September 2019 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation (Technology) (1979)


The article The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation (Technology) (1979) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Small annual list not independently notable (fails general WP:LISTN)"

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. — MarkH21 (talk) 02:56, 10 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Ignore this, I realized that the articles have had PRODs before so I have nominated them at AfD below. — MarkH21 (talk) 03:28, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

Nomination of The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation (Technology) (1979) for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation (Technology) (1979) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/The Queen's Award for Enterprise: Innovation (Technology) (1979) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. — MarkH21 (talk) 03:03, 10 September 2019 (UTC)

Create the page 2022 in public domain, please!
In January 1st, 2022 works made by authors who died in 1951 will be enter in public domain in the countries which is Life + 70 years after the death of the author and it’s very important.

191.181.216.10 (talk) 09:27, 12 September 2019 (UTC).


 * I have created Draft:2022 in public domain, hope that helps. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 10:34, 12 September 2019 (UTC).

Just stop
Please stop using a script to edit 1000 pages in an hour. It's flooding my email and watchlist with edits that are 100% pointless (because a bot is already replacing those deprecated characters) and 100% violating the spirit of your editing restriction (by replacing template redirects). In other words, stop hiding your "remove all template redirects" agenda behind barely-not-cosmetic edits. Primefac (talk) 19:40, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I certainly wouldn't want to inconvenience you. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 19:43, 12 September 2019 (UTC).


 * Is flippancy really the route you want to go down? Why do you constantly have to make things difficult? Primefac (talk) 19:47, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
 * What makes you think I was being flippant? All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 19:57, 12 September 2019 (UTC).


 * Mostly because of our interaction history; I know that my initial message comes across as seeming like I'm more concerned about my watchlist than anything else, but we both know that these sorts of edits have been a point of contention in the past. Either way, ignoring (or at least not responding to) the majority of my posted concerns comes off as flippant to me. Primefac (talk) 21:35, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
 * I certainly wouldn't want to inconvenience you.
 * I think I suggested that AWB users be given a couple of years to clear this up, or indeed an AWB bot could have done it. That way the 600,000 bot edits that you approved wouldn't be wasted edits, and your watch list would have remained undisturbed.
 * I think I also pointed out that there was an open discussion that meant there wasn't consensus on this task. If I remember correctly the discussion was closed very soon afterwards, by you, after which you quashed the review.
 * But sure, I'll stop.
 * All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 19:43, 12 September 2019 (UTC).

url_status
Hi! On your recent edit to Hatari (band), you changed "dead-url" to "url_status". Note that "url_status" is invalid and it should be "url-status" instead. Heads up that, in case you did this on other articles as well, this might need to be fixed. Regards, Lordtobi  ( &#9993; ) 19:02, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Category:Mari Trini albums


A tag has been placed on Category:Mari Trini albums requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

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. Liz Read!
