Knights and Dames in the list of deaths
The reason why your edits to Deaths in December 2013 keep getting reverted is that the consensus among editors is that the styles 'Sir' in front of men who had a knighthood or baronetcy and 'Dame' in front of women who had a damehood should be used in the entries. Can you please not just keep making the edit, but come to Talk:Deaths in 2014 to discuss why you think they should be removed? Sam Blacketer (talk) 17:01, 16 January 2014 (UTC)

Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to vandalize Wikipedia, as you did at Deaths in December 2013, you may be blocked from editing. EvergreenFir (talk) 07:23, 17 January 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for December 11
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Daniel Scott (writer), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Milton. 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.

Hello,

Does it really make sense to describe Anna Kashfi (deaths, Aug. 16) solely as an actress. Her acting career was negligible. The only reason anyone knows her at all is because she was Marlon Brando's first wife. By leaving out the Brando connection, you're ignoring the very reason she's notable.

Thanks. Viknyc (talk) 09:03, 26 August 2015 (UTC)

NYT citations
Hi, I notice that many of your contributions to Deaths in 2015 use a citation from The New York Times. Could you please trim the URL to the minimum essential length only. For example, the citation can be shortened to Anything after ".html" should be removed. This efficiency will help to keep page loading (and dross) to a minimum. Thanks, WWGB (talk) 04:47, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
