Which part of my edit is "NOT how you do it"? I'm assuming all of it since you reverted everything. So please let me know where I went wrong. Camerafiend (talk) 01:34, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- see your talk section • Sbmeirow • Talk • 01:42, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- Thanks for offering an explanation. I still don't understand what the specific issue is. Was it listing the estimate in place of the census figure instead of including both? Camerafiend (talk) 01:46, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- So... that is what the issue was? I assume it was not the lack of footnotes since your version doesn't have footnotes either. Camerafiend (talk) 01:56, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you are looking at, but I see 4 references (2 + 2) in my example. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 02:01, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- I'm not talking about the example you pasted here, I'm talking about the version of the article you reverted to, which has nothing filled in for population_footnotes. You seem unwilling to actually state what the problem is, so I'm just going to do my best to fix it and maybe this time you can let me know if you're still not happy instead of reverting the entire edit over what appears to be a formatting quibble. Camerafiend (talk) 02:17, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- This is the direction that I'm moving towards in overhauling Kansas articles. A couple years ago, I did a first phase cleanup of 631 cities in Kansas including the 2000 to 2010 census overhaul. Recently, I started going through another cleanup phase for other stuff except census estimate update, which is going to take a while to complete. I updated some cities with 2013 census estimate, but I decided to put off the rest since its so much work to do, so I'm likely going to target an update for 2015 census estimate, then not touch again until 2020, except for some select cities. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 02:21, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
- Settle down, you've been replying faster than I've been able to respond, because multitasking with phone and other things. I assume there's enough info here for you, need to go. • Sbmeirow • Talk • 02:32, 8 December 2014 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for December 9
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 2014 Miami Hurricanes football team, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Independence Stadium. 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.
