Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Alderley Edge Mines, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Lias and Young adult. 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.

Category:No local image but image on Wikidata

6k articles is quite a lot. I saw your work at [1] but can't at least P18 be put into use on {{Infobox sportsperson}} or {{Infobox person}}? A lot of manual work is being wasted in this area, which would be better spent carefully selecting images for Wikidata via WDFIST. Nemo 22:15, 14 August 2016 (UTC)

@Nemo bis: There's no technical reason why not, it just needs someone to do it or to get consensus to do it, whichever is most appropriate. The code for the infobox is straightforward:
| image   = {{#invoke:InfoboxImage|InfoboxImage|image={{#invoke:Wikidata|getValue|P18|{{{image|FETCH_WIKIDATA}}} }}|size={{{image_size|}}}|sizedefault=frameless|alt={{{alt|}}}}}
| caption = {{{caption|{{#invoke:Wikidata|getImageLegend|FETCH_WIKIDATA}}}}}
It just needs tweaking to make sure that the existing parameters calls still work (swap out 'image', 'image_size', 'alt' and 'caption' as needed). Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 06:15, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

DYK for Sir Ralph Abercromby (pub)

On 22 August 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Sir Ralph Abercromby (pub), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the Sir Ralph Abercromby public house in Manchester, UK, is the only remaining building in St Peter's Field from the time of the Peterloo Massacre in 1819? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sir Ralph Abercromby (pub). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Sir Ralph Abercromby (pub)), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
