Re: Your Bot and Robert LaRue Miller Article
Re: Your Bot and Robert LaRue Miller Article,
In regards to the above subject I would like to bring to your attention that your bot is mistakenly kept the Robert LaRue Miller in the WP:Military History Biography table as an existing article. Yes it has been deleted due to certain reasons. I have brought this up within the WP:Military History discussion a week or two ago. Is there any way, that this could be rectified?

Good Morning, I have a question and I don't know if you can help me. There is an NFL player that has different links in Wikipedia to his name but didn't have an article. The problem is that some links refer to him to L'Damian Washington and others as L’Damian Washington. I didn't know how to link both names to just one article so I created two articles (one with each name). This is not the best way to do it, so do you know who can help me with this problem ?. Thanks.
