Why? Why are you delinking perfectly valid Wikilinks saying they are "redundant" when they clearly are not. I'm talking about this, this and this etc. Moriori (talk) 22:49, 20 July 2010 (UTC)

Not so. I just looked at Sylvia Browne, which you reverted. Randi, paranormal, Larry King etc. are all redundant redundant. But revert away if you must. It is no skin off my teeth. I enjoy editing. (Perhaps Sylvia can answer why you like unneeded wikilinks!) --S. Rich 23:08, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
Can you explain what you mean by "Randi, paranormal, Larry King etc. are all redundant redundant"? Moriori (talk) 00:26, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Article History template for new articles

To go in history box, below, prolly easier to just make up my own fancy SHOW collapsable HIDE section, inside a User box. - someone can template-ise it if they want. Nifty head of talk page... ArticleHistory template... But on for former Featured Articles??? -- Find one for new articles... / look for equivalent for GoodArticle status.

Have seen new articles with this head recently

{{|New unreviewed article|source=ArticleWizard|date=October 2011}}


Possible DYK - There are 34 types of relationship therapy, but the person giving' the therapy is more important than the type of therapy they are using. -- really great to use the ID method to pull up the version of the article... e.g., the DYK page.

EDIT to See template HIDDEN in comment...>>> here
