Vindicta (Epimedium)

Thank you for working to improve Wikipedia. Could you explain this edit? A page trying to link to itself (other than linking to a subsection of itself) just changes the text to bold. Surely linking to the disambiguation page is more useful? although now that i think about it, in context the disambiguation strikes me as neither necessary nor harmful.

Wishing you happy and productive editing. --173.67.42.107 (talk) 19:27, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't notice that I was linking back to the same page - careless of me. Thanks for pointing it out. I've reverted the edit. I think that the only harm in linking to the DAB page is that the reader will think they're going some place useful only to be directed back to where they started.

A tag has been placed on Tune In Tokyo (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

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".

Melange undo

Hi. I see you undid my change on the melange article. My question is why?

Disambiguation pages are meant to help readers find specific existing information quickly and easily. They are merely navigation pages and don't present new information but, rather, point the reader to the best article for that information. I couldn't find any article that mentioned a margarine called Melange, so it doesn't belong on the disambiguation page. If an article is written on the margarine, or a significant mention in another article, it could then be added back, with that article as a supporting link. If you would like more information on this, please see WP:Disambiguation and MOS:DAB. Leschnei (talk) 22:36, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We don't know yet, but there is some encouraging news, nevertheless.
Some go out with a bang, some with a whimper, few with much of a comprehensible explanation.
Plus, the WMF joins the Unicode Consortium, Chris Albon talks about AI tools on Wikipedia, communities address under-representation on the site.

The article Amity International School has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Does not link to any articles that could be at this title; none of the entries satisfy MOS:DABRL.

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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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 {{proposed deletion/dated}} 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.

A tag has been placed on Liuzza (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is:

  • a disambiguation page with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" which lists only one extant Wikipedia page (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • a disambiguation page that lists zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • a redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" whose target is neither a disambiguation page nor page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 16:35, 26 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
