Hellow, Why you delete Boomer from Redakai?, please tell me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.205.91.60 (talk) 03:00, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
Bkonrad, in the RM on Highland you made the following statement: I see no indication of potential for an encyclopedic conceptual article. Similarly, I see no evidence that people looking for "highland" or "highlands" are looking for conceptual information rather than a specific highland. I am just curious, if you had seen evidence that people [readers] were looking for something specific, what would that evidence look like? I am interested because I struggle alot with the notion that we as editors can determine what millions of readers are actually thinking when they access Wikipedia. What should I be looking for? --Mike Cline (talk) 13:58, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
You've had good ideas in the past. Please take a look. I've put in links and sources, and it is a better article than it was. It just got promoted to a "B". Thanks. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 14:11, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adams_Township,_Houghton_County,_Michigan - I updated this to correctly list Painesdale as an unincorporated village, and you reverted it--why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.156.212.27 (talk) 21:23, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi.
You're saying that:
Santa Rosa Airport (Argentina), La Pampa, Argentina (by IATA code)
is better than:
Santa Rosa Airport, La Pampa, Argentina (by IATA code)
Where in MOSDAB does it say that this is a good idea?
Thanks, Azylber (talk) 01:20, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

This was a bit sloppy, and no doubt confusing for someone not familiar with WP:MOSDAB.
Yes, "rm external link entry -- not appropriate on disambiguation page" is quite correct. But that's not what you did. You deleted the whole entry.
Yes, removing the complete entry is the correct action, but not because of the external link entry. It should be deleted because the link does not appear / is not used anywhere in WP. Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 11:32, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
I cited the source so please stop changing something when you can't spend two minutes reading.

Thank you for reverting vandalism on the article, Greg Creswell. I did some work on it a while back, and it is disturbing to see people use Wikipedia as tool for personal attacks.--Redandready (talk) 00:57, 13 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi, FYI, in case you were unaware:

Hi - I've seen you've removed the addition I made to 'http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=AAPL' with regards to the stock redirect template - please could you advise where this redirect needs to go in order to be compliant? I am using this redirection template when querying the Wiki API and looking for this string explicitly, since a mechanism to search for articles and their associated stock symbols does not exist? Many thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Michael appleby (talk • contribs) 16:05, 27 March 2012
BK, I am (more or less) the sole editor of this new article. It has gotten nearly 18,000 views in the last 2 days. Lots of traffic. It needs a fresh set of eyes. Thank you. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 18:14, 2 April 2012 (UTC)
Hello, I moved Elektra (album) to Elektra (Suspekt album) to avoid potential confusion with Elektra: The Album, and secondarily, the many albums with Richard Strauss' opera Elektra - many of them simply titled "Elektra", which makes them an "Elektra album". "Elektra (Suspekt album)" is the most precise title in my opinion. Regards, Danmuz (talk) 13:49, 5 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Zimmer (surname), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zimmermann (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Hi Bkonrad !
I saw that you made some edits to the article Ram Kumar. I assume that you have some interest in Indian Modernist Art. I am editing Ram Kumar and invite you to add some of your own stuff. My ultimate aim is to nominate it for a GA. Thanks ! AkshaySeth20 (talk) 07:58, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
I see you have inserted leading/trailing spaces in the h2 on AO. Not so long ago, there was a bot active in removing them. Does the MOS have anything to say about this? (I haven't been able to locate anything.) No big deal, but I would like to know if I'm supposed to put them in or leave them out. Cheers, Pdfpdf (talk) 02:03, 8 April 2012 (UTC)
Reread the WP:DAB article. There is no policy whatever of removing all links on dab pages apart from those on the left margin. That's your own peeve & a silly, unhelpful one.
That said, it is obnoxious but somewhat defensible under WP:BOLD – you're arguing for your approach. Following me around the Wiki is rather less so. Continuing this pattern of focusing your edits on those I've just worked hours to create is and will be reported as harassment.
Further, a number of your edits – removal of encyclopedic content with no attempt to place it anywhere else; creation of imaginary surnames by selective deletion of my work – is indefensible WP:POINTiness. I do appreciate your apparent long work here, but chill & knock off the WP:OWNERSHIP. — LlywelynII 12:52, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Edit: I see you've been at this awhile and ignore everyone else's annoyance at your habits as well. Eh, at least my objections are noted. — LlywelynII 12:53, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Hi-- just wanted to let you know that you reversed a few good edits of mine on this page. Specifically, several redirects, a red link that has no backlinks, and the removal of "a" in the short descriptions. See: Wikipedia:Disambiguation dos and don'ts as a guideline. I'm planning on fixing the few things that shouldn't have been changed. Thanks, --Funandtrvl (talk) 18:20, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
Thanks. Clarityfiend (talk) 04:16, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
You removed the sentence which I contributed, under the heading "fiction", on the correct grounds that it didn't have a blue link to anything. If I could work out how to get a blue link on "Tom Sharpe" rather than a red link on whatever I wrote (I think it was "novels by Tom Sharpe"), then I would do so. But I can't. I am a new contributor and I haven't understood the technology yet. 188.29.163.154 (talk) 14:19, 21 April 2012 (UTC)
I'll leave that to you to sort out! Tim! (talk) 21:10, 28 April 2012 (UTC)

I would appreciate if you keep your policy of answering here "I will answer on my talk page, so please add it to your watchlist." I've just added an article for this particular strain as a 'courtesy end of discussion'. You should do more reserach instead of just deleting references or articles. Thank you. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HansRoht (talk • contribs) 21:00, 29 April 2012 (UTC)
