Vindicta (Epimedium)[edit]

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.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

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". 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. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Melange undo[edit]

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

https://mills.no/melange/ 2001:2020:4353:5547:89EC:1A11:3894:86F (talk) 20:46, 24 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

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]
