I noticed that you'd changed junta to "military junta" on the Sandinista National Liberation Front page, and I see you're changing it on a lot of pages. First, "military junta" just redirects to "military dictatorship." Second, I don't think you should be killing wikilinks to "junta" just because it's a disambig page, as it does contain information about juntas in general, that some might find useful. Third, in the FSLN case, it was not a military junta. Anyway, hold up with the junta-killing! --Groggy Dice T|C 09:19, 22 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for putting in the hard yards disambiguating so many links to "Goth". I've been trying to do a bunch each day to try to get it under control, but your efforts have far outshone mine. :-) --Stormie 03:16, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I saw your new Template:Divisor_classes and thought it looked pretty cool. Nice work!

CRGreathouse (t | c) 18:58, 11 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanx. I was on one of those pages (mondo abundant, I think), and clicked one of the "see also" links, and there I noticed the see also list included other links, and before I knew it I had over a dozen see also lists to merge, so I decided to make a box. Then I spent a few hours making a box, including one catastrophic failure and a long lesson on Do Not Fight The Tool. But I ended up with pretty much what I wanted, a narrow right side box with white on green title.

I screwed up and put an underscore everywhere I used it, but that doesn't matter, so I didn't fix it. Don't tell anyone I invented the term "divisor classes". If some mathematician wants to correct me, they can tell me what the correct term is for that list of things I made, and I'll go fix it. As I decided how to order the list, I realized I needed prime and composite. I have three more to add: unit, void, and power. There are articles on 1, 0, and exponentiation, but not on those number theory concepts. Power I can do without, but you really can't have composite and prime without unit and void. Well there are integer fields without units (a+b√5, IIRC), but if you don't have units you don't have primes, only composites. — Randall Bart 04:04, 13 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, how's it going? I'd just use Delenda delenda est. Of course, literally I guess this would be rendered "destruction (destroying) is being destroyed", but the sense of "Destruction must be destroyed" will be conveyed. I'm taking a little bit of a liberty by using delenda twice as a gerundive, but the "est" clarifies the use of the second gerundive. Hope this helps!
PS -- if you have other questions, feel free to drop a line. &#0149;Jim62sch&#0149; 11:23, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanx, but I want to avoid "taking a little bit of liberty". I'm sure Delenda delenda est will be good enough, but I'll put a little effort into finding if something is better. — Randall Bart 07:56, 11 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

For future reference, if there is a page you want to delete which has only been edited by yourself, you can tag it for speedy deletion under WP:CSD#G7: "Author requests deletion. Any page for which deletion is requested by the original author in good faith, provided the page's only substantial content was added by its author." To do so, add {{db-author}} to the page. I have already tagged the page for you, referencing your request to delete. Obviously if it is a page in wide use speedy deletion would not be advisable. —dgies^t_c 20:50, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey the ^{[citation needed]} tags were a joke. The page is a humorous one. You could have at least used the talk page before undoing somebody's work. Seriously. I won't bother reverting it back, but I hope you will reconsider and change it back yourself. It's HUMOR. Sue Rangell 01:05, 15 March 2007 (UTC)^{[citation needed]}[reply]

I think the red link user did a revert before he got the joke, then reverted himself once he grokked the page. I then did a third revert, which under the circumstances is not climbing the Reichstag, but could be construed as loitering in der Platz der Republik in unusual attire.

The joke didn't seem to fit. It's the wrong type of joke for that page. There's a clause and sentence level believability of the piece that was being violated. — Randall Bart 03:37, 15 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Saw you added "Swedish checkers" as an alternate name. Googling shows only 13 results, so I don't think this is an often used name, if at all, so I deleted it. A source would probably be needed for such an obscure version of the name.

Not that "Chinese" checkers is any more correct, of course, but it seems that nobody cares about that (ironically Chinese people seem to have appropriated the name and claimed the game for ourselves). Kelvinc 22:45, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have never read a description of Chinese checkers in a book which didn't say it was originally called Swedish checkers. I must have read it at least ten times (probably two books five times each). I have seen Swedish checkers sets. Of course this may be manufactured history. The claim that it's German not Swedish is news to me.

Web searching was not fruitful. I found a few people mentioning there is such a game, but no description to what it is. Certainly not a cite. My books may be out of storage soon, but I may not even have the book. Until I find something, there's nothing.— Randall Bart 23:13, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for being cool with it. I suppose adding it with {{fact}} appended might work: your call. Maybe I'll go to the library in the upcoming days and browse through the books on board games to see if I can help. Kelvinc 01:44, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I looked at all the trans-wiki links, and didn't see anything that looked like "Svensk" on any of them. (No that I would recognize it in Chinese, but I looked anyway.) Now I am seriously wondering about the provenance of the name "Swedish Checkers". If I can find a Swedish Checkers set, I will be sure to upload a picture. — Randall Bart 21:51, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I noticed your post on WP:DPL about disambiguating posthumous. Have you run into many instances of that article being linked when someone is talking about an album released after a band's breakup and not necessarily after someone's death? I found that the other day and I'm not sure that's a proper use of the term. --Mus Musculus 19:49, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not correct, but probably figurative. In quotes, it's okay. Hmmm. I mean that two different ways. In a quotation ("We released it posthumously"), or in scare quotes (on their "posthumous" Foo album). However, I would use scare quotes in Wikipedia text only if that word is used in a cite. In such a case the scare quotes indicate that Wikipedia doesn't really endorse that meaning.

As for linking it (if you keep it), I don't expect [[figuratively posthumous works]] will be written any time soon. You could link to [[posthumous works]], but I would delink. — Randall Bart 21:18, 23 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I don't want to sway you in one direction or the other on this topic, but could I get you to look at this, then give me your honest opinion?

Hi Randall, I just wanted to thank you for your work on the WhatLinksHere script. I find it really useful and, in fact, I've been toying around with it for a few hours now. If you don't mind, I'd also like to bother you with a Javascript-related question. (Disclaimer: I'm a Unix guy. So when I hear script, I think bash. I've written more than a few lines of C (and, reluctantly, C++) code in my day but I'm certainly no JS expert. In other words, there's a good chance I'm overlooking something really obvious. Oh well, the only thing I've got to loose is my special geek parking permit).

Basically, what I'm trying to do is display a working DPL div on the article page (ie. without clicking the 'what links here' link). The problem is, that I don't know how to load the 'wlh' page into memory (on-the-fly) without actually loading it in a visible tab or window. The only simple solution I can think of right now is to have a servlet/cgi script on one of my servers do the legwork (ie. parsing) but that seems a bit excessive and pretty inefficient. Is there any other way you can think of to do what I'm trying to do? Cheers. -- Seed 2.0 22:52, 8 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

P.S. A quick heads up: the {{user Firefox}} template you use on your userpage appears to have been moved recently.

I started doing JavaScript on December 30, so I don't know everything yet. I'm not sure what your question is. If you look at the way I use my getGetParamValue function, does that help? Otherwise, go ask at Wikipedia Talk:WikiProject User scripts.

Hey, thanks for your answer. Frankly, it doesn't really since I'm trying to parse a page on-the-fly that the user hasn't looked at. What I'm trying to do is this: 1.) The user loads the article. 2.) The script grabs the 'what links here' page in the background without the user noticing and (from here on, it's a piece of cake). 3.) The script adds the div at the top or bottom of the article.

Right now, I'm not sure if this is even possible. I suppose it could be done using a server-side script but right now I'm too busy/lazy (interesting combination, btw ;) to bother since the 'what links here' page is just a click away. Thanks though. I'll see if I can come up with a way to fix this tomorrow and, failing that, I'll take it to the project's talkpage. Cheers, -- Seed 2.0 01:06, 9 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

See my discussion page for an important reply to your question. JodyB _{yak, yak, yak} 13:19, 24 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I see that you've been switching links from right-of-way to easement, but that is not always a semantic replacement. In particular, it is common (probably even typical) for public roadbuilding in the US to involve actual ownership of the property rather than an easement. For example, in Texas state highways, a sentence used to read:

• After the city or county acquires right-of-way, TXDOT builds and maintains the road.

This sentence is wrong after the replacement has occurred. The local government is not acquiring mere easement to travel: it purchases, is given, or has to condemn the property. The fact that, after the road is built, the public has an implied easement to travel across it (as described in the easement talk page is irrelevant), since that's not what the sentence describes. It is using the term 'right-of-way' to mean the boundaries of the acquired property. This usage is common in the US. Deh 13:45, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've been struggling with some uses of "right-of-way" to mean "route", but this is not one of them. There were some cases where the easement sense was completely lost, so I didn't change Triborough Bridge or Simutrans Transport Simulator. I stand behind "easement" in the case you mention, because intent of the the city or county is to buy an easement, though usually by acquiring 100% interest in the property.

But as I said, I have been struggling with some of these, so let's continue this at Wikipedia talk:Disambiguation pages with links. — Randall Bart ^(talk) 18:39, 30 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

TY. Ironically, portfolio is a case where I had ambivalence, and ended up leaving many unchanged.

Yes, but please take care. This dab is incorrect. The article uses "ordinance" in the sense of "national government decree", not "local ordinance". Sandstein 20:12, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You're right; decree is better. When there's a compound construction (A and B), I try to slice the topic to avoid the articles already linked. In this case the article to avoid was law, so I should have hit decree. I'm virtually positive the law applies at the federal, cantonal, and local level, so I figured it wasn't wrong for slicing the topic, but somewhat surprising in the context of the words linked. — Randall Bart ^(talk) 22:25, 26 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure why you removed the link to the disambiguation page for ordinance from High Court of Justice for the trial of Charles I, however, I have added an alternative link which you may like to look at. Rjm at sleepers 06:52, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I delinked it because 1) it's meaning was made clear in context (so linking to "law" would just be silly), and 2) I didn't seriously think I would find an article on "ordinance" in the context of Parliament of the Interregnum. Of course it wasn't clear to you that I was on a disambiguation run, because the message in Popups for link removal is not customizable. If I had changed the link the message would have mentioned the great disambiguation project.

BTW, I recently ranted about why I do so many delinks. Let me assure you I respect that article. — Randall Bart ^(talk) 09:35, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

You recently changed the link from ordinance to decree in the article Indian Institute of Technology Roorkee. But in the Indian legal context, ordinance is the term for a law passed by the government while the parliament is not in session. So I believe the former link should be retained on the article, with possibly an addition of this meaning of ordinance to the disambiguation page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mkeranat (talk • contribs) 20:57, August 27, 2007 (UTC)

As stated on the project page, "Ideally, Wikipedia articles should not link to disambiguation pages (with rare exceptions where the ambiguity of a term is being discussed)". I'm trying to pipe that link to an appropriate article. If there's an article on "ordinance" as used by the Government of India, that would be ideal. Short of that, it was [[law]] or [[decree]], and "decree" seemed to fit more. I am just a Wikignome with no lasting interest in that page. You can direct it as you wish, but if you direct it to the disambiguation page, in a few months another disambiguator will change it. — Randall Bart ^(talk) 00:07, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Fixedsys Excelsior is a sans-serif font, so all letter shapes are "Gothic." It also has letters from the Gothic alphabet, which is completely distinct from the Latin alphabet. Cheers, --Kjoonlee 05:33, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I did not expect to see Gothic alphabet in that context. When I'm on a dab run, most of the articles I don't read deeply. Good catch.  Randall Bart   Talk  08:31, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that your disambiguation bot put an erroneous link into the Archie Griffin page:

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Archie_Griffin&diff=159270510&oldid=157757836

This link looks bogus:

junior university)

as it only has the closing ')'. Maybe it should be "junior (university)" ?

RainbowCrane | Talk 12:13, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

1. I am not a bot
2. Yeah, I bobbled that one. I was very frustrated disambiguating [[junior]], because there is an article called [[high school junior]], but no college equivalent. Further, I had no precedent to follow, because "freshman", "sophomore", and "senior" were all handled differently. I ended punting by creating redlinks to [[junior (university)]]. I'm not sure exactly how I fat fingered this one, but since it was intended as a redlink, I didn't catch the error.  Randall Bart   Talk  20:39, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Looking more closely at that one it is especially puzzling. That was one with both high school and college, so I had to edit manually. The summary generated by Popups has Junior (university), which means Popups created the edit changing all three to [[junior (university)]], and I needed to manually change one to [[high school junior]]. How I fat fingered the one I didn't need to change is a mystery.

Now that I look even more, more closely, I see that Popups changed two links to [[junior (university)]], I then changed one of those to [[high school junior]], and along the way I decided to add one more link, and botched it. Fixed now. Thanx.  Randall Bart   Talk  20:54, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In keeping with the proper meaning of the main character's title of "Ranger", he is supposed to be space cop... a protector, a guardian, and in this case in which it is being used in the movie, the best link for it is still, AND WILL FOREVER BE, "Ranger". He wasn't a commando, and definitely not a freakin D&D character class! I laughed at that! Come on... please use some common sense - Did you even watch this movie? If not then you should know he was more or less a bounty hunter than anything, but they called him a "ranger" for some reason. Please stop changing the link. Cyberia23 22:35, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When disagreeing about an edit I have made, please provide a link to the article.

Wow, what an odd case. I went at ranger in multiple phases over a week, searching for articles to link to. I reread the lede to [[Ranger (character class)]], and took it for a generic crap fiction article, so I took a bunch of crap fiction articles still in need of disambiguation, and sent them there.

If it's worth linking, [[commando]] is correct, though not that good. Perhaps you would like to write an article called [[Ranger (crap fiction)]]. See also my FAQ  Randall Bart   Talk  23:04, 10 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The "5000" tab doesn't work correctly any more, at least not all the time. I think the problem is the url500 regex -- the link that this parses sometimes contains "&amp;hidetrans=1" in it, and the &amp; needs to be converted back into a simple & character. --Russ (talk) 21:21, 19 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

	WELCOME	from a Article Rescue Squad member
	Welcome to Article Rescue Squadron Barticus88, a list of articles needing to be rescued can be found here: Articles currently tagged. I look forward to working with you in the future. Ikip (talk) 17:51, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Barticus88, welcome to the Article Rescue Squadron WikiProject! We are a growing community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to identifying and rescuing articles and content that have been nominated for deletion. Every day hundreds of articles are deleted, many rightfully so. But many concern notable subjects and are poorly written, ergo fixable, and should not be deleted. We try to help these articles and content to quickly improve and address the concerns of why they are proposed for deletion. This covers a lot of ground and your help is appreciated! Some points that may be helpful: WikiProject Article rescue squadron's (ARS) main aim is to help improve Wikipedia articles and content. If someone seeks help, please try to assist if you are able. Likewise feel free to ask for help, advice and clarification. Sometimes we are asked to help rescue articles by people new to our notability and sourcing policies. If the article is not fixable we can help explain why and offer alternatives. Sometimes editors who are new to Wikipedia may perceive the deletion of "their" article as discouraging. Encourage civility and maybe even {{welcome}} them if they have only been templated with deletion messages. The Articles for deletion (AfD) discussion is where the concerns regarding each article are brought up and addressed. To be an effective member of the project you need to know how AfD works as well as how to improve articles. Introduction to deletion process gives a good overview and some good advice for newcomers to deletion. Our primary work is improving Wikipedia articles and content. A more dynamic list with article links and descriptions are located at our rescue list. If you have another language besides English, please consider adding yourself to the list of translators available. Articles and sources that use non-English languages often need translation for those of us who cannot translate for ourselves. Many important discussions take place on the project's main discussion page; it is recommended that you watchlist it. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on the talk page, and we will be happy to help you. And once again — Welcome! Addbot (talk) 00:01, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, good to see your tidying up some of the placename/road articles, but as regards what you did with Dąbie, I'd just like to point out: (a) we generally treat towns as primary topics over villages, so the town called Dąbie could happily have stayed with that title, unless you think there's some village or other place of particular significance; (b) if a name redirects to the disambiguation page, then the disambiguation page should simply have that name (so if Dąbie redirects to Dąbie (diambiguation), then the dab page should simply be renamed Dąbie); (c) if you do decide to demote something from primary topic, you will break a lot of existing links (all those articles that linked to the town Dąbie now have those links broken, unless you go around repairing them. So all in all, I think it would be better not to do renamings of this type, but if you do do them, make sure you repair all the links, and name the dab page appropriately.--Kotniski (talk) 08:06, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

For now, I've redirected Dąbie back to the town, so the existing links still work.--Kotniski (talk) 08:15, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sometimes, I am guessing at how significant a town is. Dąbie, Greater Poland Voivodeship has a population of 2,087. Dąbie, Łuków County has a population of 900. Dąbie, Subcarpathian Voivodeship has a population of 980. Dąbie, Silesian Voivodeship has a population of 524. Dąbie, Lubusz Voivodeship has a population of 417. From that I would guess that Dąbie, Greater Poland does not rate standing in front of the disambiguation page. Perhaps history (including WWII) magnifies this Dąbie so it truly overshadows the others. You might know that better than I.

I thought about fixing Dąbie links. Those links that formerly were correctly pointing at the article are now another click away. However, links that were wrong, are now one click from the right page. Now that I look at these links, I see most of them are historical, and some modern ones point to the old place, but I found at least one that's wrong. Przystanek Woodstock should point to Dąbie, Szczecin, right? It's the presence of confusing ones like that, that leads me to leave some links for others to fix.

There is nothing wrong with Dąbie pointing to Dąbie (disambiguation). I've worked disambiguation for years, and I know they should go the other way, but there has never been any rule to fix them once they get backwards, and they often do.

Tomorrow, I will point it back at the dab page, and fix the links. If you still don't like it, you can move it back. I do a disambiguation project, then I move on.  Randall Bart   Talk  09:01, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I just checked, and the article I was working on that led me to Dąbie, was a link that should have gone to Dąbie, Lubusz.  Randall Bart   Talk  09:10, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have re-redirected Dąbie (and Dabie) to Dąbie (disambiguation). I fixed all the incoming links except I am still working on Voivodeship road and I am sufficiently unsure of Polish–Ukrainian War, that I tagged it {{dn}}. I also put a {{dn}} tag after Babiak in Chelmno extermination camp. I could guess that both of these are Greater Poland, but those two are subject matter where I avoid guesswork. I found five of the links were wrong, and there may be more in the Voivodeship road article.  Randall Bart   Talk  01:21, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Right, good work! I can't help with the remaining two disambiguations - I guess the Dąbie referred to is the one in Kraków (in Grzegórzki, Kraków), but I can't be sure - the Polish WP article doesn't specify either. The Babiak could be either one of at least two. As to why Zagórze in Sosnowiec was specially treated for so long, I imagine it's just because that was the article that was created first, and no-one got round to moving it when other articles were created. I actually prefer the dab page format with division by voivodeship, when there is a particularly long list - I suppose it's personal preference, but I find it easier to find things when a huge list is broken down a bit.--Kotniski (talk) 10:01, 3 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.

Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.

When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.

If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 05:08, 20 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Randall. Since the upgrade to MW 1.18, User:Barticus88/WhatLinksHere.js is not always behaving correctly. The issue can be fixed, I think, by changing the following line in the addOnloadHook function (near the end):

to: if (wgPageName.slice(0, 21).toLowerCase() !== 'special:whatlinkshere') { return; }

Wikipedia's list of user scripts is in bad shape, in that it is disorganized and contains many non-working, unmaintained, or thoroughly obsolete entries. Cleanup has been on the to-do list since 2007, but little progress has been made. Instead, the whole list is now set to be deprecated on 1 May 2012, to be replaced with a new list. This draft list has been up for about a month, and in that time I've been soliciting script users and authors to come add scripts they know to be working and relevant.

If you know of scripts that you would like to survive this deprecation (and are confirmed working and relevant), you're welcome to add them to the new list. Note that the old list will be retained and linked from the main list, so there is no real deadline. Thanks for your help. Equazcion ^(talk) 00:55, 22 Apr 2012 (UTC)

Hi! It seems you recently created an unreferenced biography of a living person: William Herbert Hunt. The community has decided that all new biographies of living persons must contain a reliable source that supports at least one statement made about the person in the article as per our verifiability policy. Please add references as soon as possible. Thanks! --LaraBot (talk) 00:13, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The article William Herbert Hunt has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, all newly created biographies of living persons must have at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.

If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one.

Hello Barticus88. Though our Table tennis article claims that there was a 1901 trademark on 'Ping-pong' no reference is provided. Per WP:V the claim of a trademark may be removed if it can't be cited. So changing the hyphenation of a widely-used term based on something not verifiable might be argued about. See WP:COMMONNAME for the burden of proof. As it states there, Wikipedia "prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources".

I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points).

At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 01:54, 18 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bowl Coalition, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page 1995 Sugar Bowl (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.
