== Good Article info ==

Hello Josh. Please, put this on the back burner, I know you're busy. My question is about how in the future to make the [[T. J. Watt]] page a good article. Is this an accolade or just a presentation deal? Like I mentioned earlier, my computer is out of date, no edit preview etc. etc. Just wondering if this is something I can work on for let's say a year or so to make it a good article. I hunt, so I can wait days on end for something good to happen, lol. Since 2017, I live and die with this guy for as long as he plays, and I would hope that after he retires, maybe something would be substantial on his page. If you say it's a dead issue ... not a problem. Just wanted to ask. Thank you. John [[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]] ([[User talk:Bringingthewood|talk]]) 02:55, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

:Hey @[[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]]. I'm glad to hear you're interested in helping to get content promoted! I think you'd be best asking @[[User:BeanieFan11|BeanieFan11]] about this. Right above this post you'll actually notice that Beanie won the recent WikiCup competition and created 75 GAs in the process. Most of those, if not all, were actually related to football and the NFL. I myself have worked on featured content, but only lists, and have never actually helped to promote an article to GA, so I'm unfortunately not the best person to be able to guide you through this. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 12:48, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
::For what it's worth though, I don't think it's a 'dead issue', and I think it's very much possible. With all the time you're probably spending in a tree stand, I'm sure you'll have time to chip away it. Be aware though, it can be a bit more difficult to get active players promoted, but that doesn't mean you shouldn't give it a shot!

== mistakes what you did ==

Hey man what you did to the page of [[Libya–Vietnam relations]] it’s a very big mistake because you didn’t provide logical evidence for that that deleting so can you correct your mistake or you’ll have to blocked [[User:Lamise 2023|Lamise 2023]] ([[User talk:Lamise 2023|talk]]) 08:41, 5 November 2023 (UTC)

:{{tpw}} Hi! The article wasn't deleted, instead, it was draftified and moved to [[Draft:Libya–Vietnam relations]] where you can improve it further. The 2 sources aren't quite enough to establish [[WP:GNG|notability]] of the subject. Also, many sections are unsourced, and thus can't be published per [[WP:V|the verifiability guideline]]. 
:Asking a question normally usually sounds a lot nicer rather than threatening to get blocked. :) [[User:NotAGenious|NotAGenious]] ([[User talk:NotAGenious|talk]]) 15:51, 5 November 2023 (UTC)
:I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not threatning to have me blocked @[[User:Lamise 2023|Lamise 2023]]. The only part that I had in that article is deleting the redirect that was left behind from someone moving the page. The redirect left behind from the page was a cross-namespace redirect ([[WP:CSD R2]]), in this case a redirect from main space to draft space, and was deleted. The content of the page was unaffected by the redirect that was deleted. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 12:52, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

== About your closure of emoji RfDs ==

Hey Hey man im josh {{s|{{sic}}}}, I wanted to check in with you about your closures of the [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 October 21#🧑‍🦳|🧑‍🦳]], [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 October 21#👾|👾]], and [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 October 21#🫥|🫥]] RfDs. The RfC to determine community consensus on the topic is still open, and so I was wondering why you decided to close these (and retarget all three) with the possibility that your decisions might be reversed in the forseeable future. Let me know what you think! <span class="nowrap">—[[User:TechnoSquirrel69|TechnoSquirrel69]]</span> ([[User talk:TechnoSquirrel69|sigh]]) 04:37, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:TechnoSquirrel69|TechnoSquirrel69]]: Please note {{diff2|1181090813|this}} reply by Firefangledfeathers. We aren't waiting on the result of an RfC at this point in time, so it felt best to close these discussions to get them out of the way.

::Dear Hey man im josh , I'm waiting for your reply from 2 days, If you understand my probelm , so please help me. :) ~~ <span style="background-color:purple ; padding: 2px 5px 1px 5px">[[User:Aviram7|<span style="color:white">αvírαm</span>]]<nowiki>|</nowiki>[[User talk:Aviram7|(tαlk)]]</span> 14:17, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
:::@[[User:Aviram7|Aviram7]]: I don't typically edit on weekends, so when I start up on Monday there's usually a lot of catching up to do. I'm in the process of doing so now. It does not appear that you have been receiving severe vandalism or abuse on your talk page and, as such, applying a protection would not be appropriate. We also do not pre-emptively protect pages. As someone who did quite a lot of anti-vandalism, I'd say you should just keep reporting the vandals. If they come to your talk page and out themselves as the disruptive folk they are, all the better, because then you can report them to AIV. With that said, in the future, if you are receiving a lot of vandalism on your talk page, you should make a request at [[WP:RPPI]]. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 14:36, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

::::Dear Hey man im josh, Thanks for your reply but We remove nonconsecutive edits on wikipedia and also try to clean wikipedia. When I  revert any ip user edits, they are coming on Usertalkpage resort to vandalism and personal attacks and I don't know how to feel safe from personal attackers who directly attack on wikipedians but I'm feel well to your reply. Thanks for your understanding. :) ~~ <span style="background-color:purple ; padding: 2px 5px 1px 5px">[[User:Aviram7|<span style="color:white">αvírαm</span>]]<nowiki>|</nowiki>[[User talk:Aviram7|(tαlk)]]</span> 14:49, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
:::::@[[User:Aviram7|Aviram7]]: I believe you meant nonconstructive instead of nonconsecutive? Never the less, I am absolutely well aware that nonconstructive edits are removed. Looking through your talk page history, I'm not finding anything recent in terms of these vandalism and personal attacks that you're referring to. Every editor has a right to question why their content was removed or why their edit was reverted and I'm not seeing anything recent on your talk page in terms of harassment.

:::::Dear Hey man im josh,  Yep! you're right I mean  to say (nonconstructive) and I support your thought every editors have right to ask to why their edit has been reverted, I understand my Usertalkpage has no need to protect. :) ~~ <span style="background-color:purple ; padding: 2px 5px 1px 5px">[[User:Aviram7|<span style="color:white">αvírαm</span>]]<nowiki>|</nowiki>[[User talk:Aviram7|(tαlk)]]</span> 15:08, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

== 👾 ==

In respect to [[Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2023 October 21#👾]], I am looking for advice. Point is that 👾 is now linking to a disambiguation page. According to [https://dplbot.toolforge.org/templates_with_dab_links.php Templates with disambiguation links], that is a problem that needs to be solved. But I fail to solve the problems in [[Template:Unicode chart single emojis]] and [[Template:Unicode chart Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs]]. Can you advice me how to solve that? <span style="border:1px solid green; padding:0 2px">[[User:The Banner|<span style="color:green">The&nbsp;Banner</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:The Banner|<i style="color:maroon">talk</i>]]</span> 00:01, 4 November 2023 (UTC)

:Hey @[[User:The Banner|The Banner]], it looks like there's quite a few disambiguation links in those templates. While it's generally best practice not to have disambiguation pages in templates, I think that, in some cases, there are going to be exceptions to the best practice. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 14:47, 6 November 2023 (UTC)
::A trick possible is using a link "subject (disambiguation)|subject" (a redirect to the disambiguation page) what fools the maintenance bots into believing this is not a disambiguation page (don't ask me why). But I could not not even find the symbol. <span style="border:1px solid green; padding:0 2px">[[User:The Banner|<span style="color:green">The&nbsp;Banner</span>]]&nbsp;[[User talk:The Banner|<i style="color:maroon">talk</i>]]</span> 15:11, 6 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:AryKun|AryKun]]: Sorry for the delay, I don't typically edit on weekends and had a busy Friday.

== revert of [[287 (Number)]] ==

287 (Number) is the only number page with an uppercase N. Clearly when [[user:ReyP02]] requested its creation he made a typo when capitalizing Number. All his other request as spelled with a lowercase 'n'. 
Can you explain your revert?
That page with a redirect has no valid reason to exist. Can you make a case to show otherwise? [[User:Dhrm77|Dhrm77]] ([[User talk:Dhrm77|talk]]) 16:12, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Dhrm77|Dhrm77]]: You tagged the page as {{tl|db-error}} and I declined the CSD because but it's not clear that the page was created in error. Additionally, there doesn't initially appear to be anything obviously wrong with keeping the redirect and it's not the only redirect that exists with a capitalization (see [[285 (Number)]]). If you feel strongly about this then you should nominated this redirect at [[WP:RfD]], because I do not view this as uncontroversial maintenance. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 16:20, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
::Thanks for pointing to [[285 (Number)]]. I don't know how you found this page, but that's clearly another one that doesn't need to exist. Unless you want to argue that every number page (some 400 of them) need an additional article with a capitalized N and a redirect to the proper page?

:::@[[User:Dhrm77|Dhrm77]]: Redirects [[:Category:Redirects from other capitalisations|based on alternative capitalizations are extremely common]] and I personally have no issue with the page titles "xxx (Number)" redirecting to "xxx (number)". For what it's worth, for the numbers 1-500, there was only 2 addition redirects that existed with this formatting ([[13 (Number)]] & [[22 (Number)]]). I'm not sure I see a reason that these would be deleted if sent to RfD, so if you feel strongly and you want to create the additional redirects, I don't really see a reason not to. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 16:45, 13 November 2023 (UTC)
::::I see your point. But I also like consistency. So either all pages have a redirect or none. Now, I understand that in some cases, for pages other than number pages, one might capitalize a word or not, and we might want a redirect to the other page. But in this case. If someone search for any number xx in the search box, one of the earliest option to choose from is "xx (number)", so one can just click on that. Another way to get to a number page is from some other number page (which always uses the lower case 'n') or some math page, which also point to the proper page. These pages 285 & 287) have also recently been created so there is no long history from some other website to be worried about. I really don't see a reason to keep the pages with a capital 'N'. BTW, I already submitted requests on [[Wikipedia:Rfd]] for these 2 pages. [[User:Dhrm77|Dhrm77]] ([[User talk:Dhrm77|talk]]) 17:11, 13 November 2023 (UTC)

Picked you quasi-randomly from [[:Category:Wikipedia administrators willing to handle RevisionDelete requests]].

== Asian Games redirects ==

Hi, I noticed you redirects some Asian Games redlinks (in sports of wrestling, Sailing and athletics) like this [[Athletics at the 1951 Asian Games – Men's 10,000 metres]] to the main article. since you are also an admin may I ask why you did that? I mean what does this add to wikipedia? they are mostly only linked to the main page. I'm asking because I want to know if there is a policy here to not having redlinks at all? even in this case I think it's better to unlink them rather than useless redirects.
you may say it doesn't hurt but I think it does. because when they are redlinks people like me will always know that article doesn't exist and should be created (if the info is available someday, because unfortunately some old results are missing) for example look at [[Template:AsianGames10000metres|this template]], 1951 and 1954 links are not red but they are not created either. I'm not fluent in English but I hope I make my point clear. Thanks [[User:Sports2021|Sports2021]] ([[User talk:Sports2021|talk]]) 00:07, 14 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Sports2021|Sports2021]]: There is not a policy or consensus that I've seen that says it's inappropriate to redirect an event to a more general page. Personally I don't believe the redirects are useless because if someone is looking for that event information then they'll find a relevant summary of the event at the target. I feel confident in saying that there's easily tens of thousands of these types of redirect, if not hundreds of thousands, and I think they serve a purpose. If you have a set of pages that you're interested in working on where you'd like yourself to be page creator then I'd be more than happy to G6 delete them for you. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 00:35, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
::See also [[Template:R from subtopic]], it's a redirect category specifically made for situations like this. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 00:37, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
::: Thanks for your time. I didn't say that's against the rules. I was actually asking if having redlinks (and not redirecting them) is against rule. I think it's fair to say that everybody who looks for ''Athletics at the 1951 Asian Games – Men's 10,000 metres'' will automatically check ''Athletics at the 1951 Asian Games''.
::: Yes I know there are tons of those redirects and to be honest I was always disagreed with them, but they are mostly about future events, those pages will be created sooner or later. but when you do it for past events ... hmmm. unfortunately there is a chance they always remain a redirect. I absolutely don't care to be the page creator. I like them to remain redlinks mostly because that always reminds me and other wiki users that those pages should be created. let me tell you this way, I checked this page [[Sailing at the Asian Games]] and when I saw all previous games links are blue I got happy that someone had enough info to create them but then I realized they are just redirects. so I hope you accept this from me and delete them all. I hope I can create those pages someday soon though. [[User:Sports2021|Sports2021]] ([[User talk:Sports2021|talk]]) 00:55, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
::::That's fair to disagree. How do you feel about pages in categories? When redirects are listed in categories they're listed in italics, which would make it obvious that the event title is currently a redirect. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 01:12, 14 November 2023 (UTC)
::::: Yes they are shown in italic which is at least better and helps if I have to go that rout to see which pages are not really created. but again my main point is about pages [[Sailing at the Asian Games|like this]]
::::: Speaking of sailing, for example [[Sailing at the 1986 Asian Games – Division II|this page]] is only linked to [[Sailing at the 1986 Asian Games|this]] and [[Sailing at the Asian Games|this]]. nobody is going to click on that redirect from anywhere else and whoever does it won't like it when is redirected to the same page he was already reading. it will be useless for him. or check [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Wrestling_at_the_1990_Asian_Games_%E2%80%93_Men%27s_Greco-Roman_68_kg this] what's the point of redirecting a page to the only page linked to it. that's why I called it useless. again I'm not fluent in English so I'm not sure if I'm making myself clear but I hope you get my point.

:::::::: as I said before I don't want them to get deleted just to create them myself! who cares who is the page creator, (I don't care at least)  I explained before why I think it's a bad idea, I want them to be deleted simply because I think those pages should stay red link if they are not created yet. now I noticed you did that to several other pages in other sports like Table tennis, Tennis, Soft tennis and Bowling too! now that's too much, I think I'm going to unlink them. it doesn't make sense to have a page like [[Wrestling at the 1966 Asian Games|this]] where all "details" links are redirected back to the same page! [[User:Sports2021|Sports2021]] ([[User talk:Sports2021|talk]]) 22:26, 17 November 2023 (UTC)
:::::::::@[[User:Sports2021|Sports2021]]: I've actually asked someone to help me out with a script to semi automate the process. I believe the redirects are useful, but I also agree that circular redirects can be misleading. The goal of my request to them is to search for the specific template for summaries and check whether it is a redirect or not, and if so, comment out the summary.

== 2011 NFL Draft, NOTable undrafted players ==

Hello, sorry for bothering you.

The IP 72.133.196.210 keeps adding players who did not have notable careers to the "Notable undrafted players" section, I don't know if there is a way to block their edits, since it is quite annoying for me to have to remove those players every time it adds them.

It's been adding to all draft pages, not only in 2011. It adds literally every player, sometimes they don't even have official stats =/ 

P.S. Just to clarify
I've left it messages on its talk page and in the edit summary, and yet it continues to add these players, I am sick of removing them repeatedly. [[User:Sergio Skol|Sergio Skol]] ([[User talk:Sergio Skol|talk]]) 06:10, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Sergio Skol|Sergio Skol]]: Wasn't this discussed at [[WT:NFL]] recently? I believe the issue was that there wasn't consensus as to what makes a player notable enough for inclusion on the list. Though I do agree with you that not every player who makes a roster should be included on the list.

== Hutchinson ==

Hi Josh. As always, hope all is well. It takes a few edits for me not being able to view before submitting. But I added a second NFC Player of the Week for [[Aidan Hutchinson]], using the reference from the article. It now shows the same reference listed under two different numbers. Ref#'s 23 and 26. Should one be removed? I really didn't want to say in the edit summary that it's referenced already in the article. Hope I didn't make your eyes bleed! - Regards, John [[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]] ([[User talk:Bringingthewood|talk]]) 23:08, 20 November 2023 (UTC)

:::::@[[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]]: No no, you can absolutely reuse references, but that usually involves naming the reference so that you can just use the name in the second instance where you would use the full reference.

::::::Hey @[[User:Bringingthewood|Bringingthewood]]. To re-use a reference, you would add a name to the ref portion of the reference, as shown in {{diff2|1186198226|this diff}} on [[Aidan Hutchinson]], and then replace the second usage of that citation as I did in the dif. So instead of having the full long citation, you're just pointing to that name that was defined elsewhere in the article. I use named references quite often so re-use refs and I think [[WP:REFNAME]] is a helpful wikilink for you in this case.

==Special drafts==
Hey, Josh,

I just discovered that we have hundreds of drafts passing through the G13 soon lists that should not be deleted. Take, for example, [[Draft:William Kramer (athlete)]]. It was draftified as part of [[Wikipedia:Village_pump_(proposals)/Archive_201#RfC_on_draftifying_a_subset_of_mass-created_Olympian_microstubs|this Village Pump decision]] but it was determined that these drafts on Olympic athletes should sit for at least 5 years before being eligible for G13 status. Unfortunately, they were not omitted from the SDZeroBot reports until a day or two ago so the lists from the next four days include these drafts on them even though they should not be deleted. But they do have a tag on the draft page that will let you know which ones should have a delayed deletion and they will also be categorized in [[:Category:All drafts subject to special procedures]].

I only became aware of this yesterday and I'm not sure how much you work you do in the G13 area these days but I just thought I'd give you a head's up. Thanks. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">[[User:Liz|'''''L'''''iz]]</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">[[Special:Contributions/Liz|'''''Read!''''']] [[User talk:Liz|'''''Talk!''''']]</sup> 21:40, 21 November 2023 (UTC)

== Hi Josh thanks for looking at my draft submission ==

I've added the links to verified sources as requested, namely the links of the books authored by Salina Christmas on Barnes & Noble, Waterstones and Amazon. As well as an author profile and ratings on Goodreads. Are those fine for reliable references, to prove that the published works exist? Thanks so verifying.

:I'm not actually very good at evaluating these types of articles so I think your best bet would be to ask at [[WP:AFCHELPDESK]] instead. Though, I will recommend that you implemented [[Wikipedia:Inline citations]]. I originally rejected the draft because the only sources were to Wikipedia, and that I knew was not enough, so I wanted to quickly give you that feedback instead of having you wait longer than you had to at the time.

== DeMar Hamlin "pronounced dead" edit ==

Hey, obviously you've got more Wiki experience than me so I let me start but saying I trust your judgement. However, I specifically looked for sources saying he was pronounced dead (implying by a doctor) and couldn't find any. The closest was a quote saying "I died out there", but there's a difference between a stopped heart and medically dead. If there are plenty of sources supporting your undo, could you please cite one for the article? Thanks, and appreciate your contributions to Wikipedia. [[User:Kodak11111|Kodak11111]] ([[User talk:Kodak11111|talk]]) 05:38, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Kodak11111|Kodak11111]]: My mistake, I thought I had added sources last night. Please never be afraid to ask for a source despite the difference in one's experience, it's a perfectly valid request. I've added two sources to [[2022 NFL season]].

== Object to the deletion of [[Eduardo Kau]]'s article ==

I clearly object to the removal of [[Eduardo Kau]]'s page. Obviously the version I created now is different from the one created by previous users. If what you are doing refers to the deletion discussion, isn't the reference source I took different from the previous article? And this is clearly very careless in deleting because the discussion is not carried out on a new page. [[User:The Pict&#39;s|The Pict&#39;s]] ([[User talk:The Pict&#39;s|talk]]) 13:32, 29 November 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:The Pict's|The Pict's]]: The two versions are different, but they're essentially written the same way. In both versions the lead says their name, their date of birth, their nickname, and that they're a Brazilian footballer who is a defender. The only other section in both is the "club career" section, which is the same title in both. Both are only two sentences long with the older one simply mentioning when he debuted while your version only stated that he was signed in November of this year. The sources, in both versions, are inadequate to establish notability. The 2 sources used in your version were a passing mention and routine coverage of a possible free agent signing. If you would like, I can restore and move your version to draft space so that you may work on and expand it further? It's possible there's enough sources out there, but the version you created did not address the issues brought up at [[Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Eduardo Kau|the AfD discussion]].

== Request page protection  ==

An IP user has been large undiscussed changes to the article Bengal Presidency. I reverted those but he reverted them back. It appears that it might be the sock puppet of Solomon The Magnifico who was recently blocked. There is also a sock puppet investigation going on against the IP at [[Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Solomon The Magnifico]]. Could you please protect the page [[Bengal Presidency]] against further harm? I've lodged a protection request too. [[User:PadFoot2008|PadFoot2008]] ([[User talk:PadFoot2008|talk]]) 06:32, 2 December 2023 (UTC)

:It looks like your request was denied @[[User:PadFoot2008|PadFoot2008]]. In the future, it's best to just request page protections at [[WP:RFPP/I]], as you did, without following up with specific admins.

== Request - Krishna Kumar (Athletics) ==

Hi, I see that a page I created, Krishna Kumar (Athletics) has been deleted. I am not sure of the reason as I cannot see it anywhere. Can I please know what should be done or how to work and make it eligible for Wiki. I have been doing India pages as part of the India Project. Kindly help. Is it possible to rectify the defects and create the page again as it affects my number of pages created.

thanks and regards, David [[User:Davidindia|Davidindia]] ([[User talk:Davidindia|talk]]) 16:12, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

:@[[User:Davidindia|Davidindia]]: It looks like you had created a page at [[Krishan Kumar (Athletics)]], which was a duplicate article of an article at [[Krishan Kumar (athlete)]]. As a result, the page you created was redirected to the other page by a user named Wikishovel (this is standard procedure).
:[[Krishan Kumar (athlete)]] was deleted as it was created by a blocked user who was evading their block, and, as a result, the redirects pointing to that page were also deleted. I can restore the version that you created and move it to [[Krishan Kumar (athlete)]], if you wish. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 16:21, 4 December 2023 (UTC)

== [[New York Squash]] ==

Hi - I wasn't aware of the 90 day rule for draftifying, and I'll try to bear that in mind in future. However in this case the page was a deleted PROD, which I restored to draft space and renamed after being contacted by email (See [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=New_York_Metropolitan_Squash_Racquets_Association&action=edit&redlink=1]). I'm not sure if the 90 day rule applies in that situation or not, but I'm not going to revert. <span class="nowrap"> — [[User:Voice of Clam|Voice of Clam]] ([[User talk:Voice of Clam|talk)]]</span> 13:15, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

:Ohhh, sorry about that @[[User:Voice of Clam|Voice of Clam]]. Moving to draft space after restoring may absolutely appropriate and I could / should have checked the deletion log. The 90 day rule is more or less "has existed in main space consecutively for 90 days", which deleted articles that are restored wouldn't fit into. [[User:Hey man im josh|Hey man im josh]] ([[User talk:Hey man im josh#top|talk]]) 13:17, 5 December 2023 (UTC)

== Creating song redirects ==

Hello. When you create song redirects, can you please check to see if there is a disambiguation page that lists other songs of that name and instead point "title (song)" redirects there? I've just repointed multiple song redirects with fairly common titles you've recently made as there are disambiguation pages that list multiple songs of those names. For example, [[A.B.C. (song)]] is far too generic a title to only refer to one song from one album, periods in between the letters or no. It would be a great help for future redirects others might make or readers who may not only be looking for a song by one specific artist. Thanks. <b>[[User:Ss112|<span style="color: #FF6347;">Ss</span>]]<small>[[User talk:Ss112|<span style="color: #1E90FF;">112</span>]]</small></b> 09:12, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

:Hey @[[User:Ss112|Ss112]], I actually do usually try to do this. The order of redirects I try are song name -> song name (song) -> song name (singer name song). If the title without disambiguation is a song, I usually won't make a redirect at the (song) disambiguation or I will point it to a dab page. With that said, I can't believe I was silly enough to make that redirect, that just makes me think of the song "ABC 123". I'll add song name (disambiguation) to my checklist as an extra measure though, just in case.

For a fan, you would think I would have noticed the awards and accomplishments section. It's only been there a week!!

Hi Josh. Whenever possible, could you let me know if this is normal practice? [[Deebo Samuel]]s page looked fine after your last edit. This is regarding his 'NFL career statistics'.

:::::To follow up and try to wrap this conversation up, I think I've been fairly clear that I don't want to elaborate further than "I chose not to because they're optional".
