Andrey Smirnov (curler)
I see that you reverted my change to the hatnote of Andrey Smirnov (curler). When intentionally linking to a disambiguation page, the link should be piped through the (disambiguation) redirect per the WP:INTDABLINK policy. This lets those of us at WP:DPL, and the bots that help us, know that the link is intentional. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 10:55, 30 January 2016 (UTC)

Thanks
Hi there. I'm the original author of the German Wikipedia article on the Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception in Moscow. I know it's been a while, but I've not been active for years. Anyway, just wanted to thank you for your work on the English version of the page. Looking good. I might get more active again in the years ahead and help out with any updates or missing bits as time permits. But for now, just thanks a bunch. --Schwallex (talk) 00:47, 27 February 2016 (UTC)

Peer review
Hello Tomcat7! I just requested a peer review for the article Almendra (Almendra album). Since I saw you in the volunteers list, and you expressed interest in rock music from the 1960s/1970s, I thought I could ask you to participate. Help would be appreciated!
