Crossnamespace

Is Wikipedia:WikiProject Pokémon/Mr. Mime a proper redirect? Web-julio (talk) 02:40, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hey Web-julio, cross-namespace redirects are typically considered problematic if they go from article space to somewhere else and not necessarily the other way around. If you'd like the community to discuss this you can make a nomination for a full RfD. TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 02:44, 8 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Lint errors

edit

The process is creating lint errors. The reason is that there is a <includeonly></div></includeonly> included when you close discussion. But there is already a close div at the end of the discussion.

See this diff for an example manual fix. (IN this case the lint errors appeared in the "yesterday" page, where the page in question is transcluded today..)

I'd fix it myself, but I spend too much time chasing up things that people just wanna delete. All the best: Rich Farmbrough 18:50, 18 October 2024 (UTC).Reply

Baton Zabërgja

edit

please looking for ridirect wikipedia this professional football player and so much news in references Alkid2023 (talk) 22:23, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

We do not have enough content on Baton Zabërgja to create a redirect. He has played for different clubs, hence creating the redirect to any one club is not feasible. When you feel there is a good target, you may use this wizard to make a request: WP:Article wizard/Redirects. Jay 💬 07:20, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Okay , how can chance to recovery back again normal i have some references put. Alkid2023 (talk) 08:34, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
If you are referring to the deleted article, it will not be restored as it was created by a user who was blocked (WP:G5). If you have content to write up a draft, you can request restoration of the draft from 2022 - Draft:Baton Zabergja. Jay 💬 19:28, 12 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

TeapotsOfDoom and IP 35....

edit

User:TeapotsOfDoom (ToD) has been blocked as a sock of a blocked user. ToD has recently raised a significant number of RfDs, apparently without notifying the creators of the redirects. An IP, obviously also a sock of ToD, starting with 35.... (35) has !voted and commented extensively on the RfDs. I have raised a sock investigation on the IP. I have removed those that I could on 20th November with no significant discussion attached. I have struck through comments by either account on 20th Nov, where I could. I can at the moment do no more. We should however:

  1. Strike or remove comments or !votes by either account in any active discussion.
  2. Remove any RfDs with no significant discussion.
  3. Notify the creators of the redirects for any remaining ToD RfDs. Delay the closing of these to allow time to comment by the creators, and for the comment to be digested by the community.
  4. Possibly remove other active RfDs by ToD, according to editors' good judgement.

Titles with en dash - I might have stuffed up

edit

Hi, I just moved Northwestern Syria campaign (October 2017–February 2018) and Northwestern Syria offensive (December 2019–March 2020) to have a spaced dash per MOS:RANGE. My understanding (per WP:AT) is that a redirect has to be created for the title using the hyphen instead of the dash because of keyboard accessibility for the en dash. I did this at this page. The link is a circular redirect and both articles seem to reach the target when using the hyphen. Looks like I stuffed up. Could somebody please have a look please.
