Disambiguation link notification for January 24

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jane Ward (volleyball), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Carlsbad. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Deaths in 2025

Hello, when you add people to the Deaths in 2025 page, or similar pages for previous years/months, please note that they should be in alphabetical order under each day, and only simple citations should be used. Thank you. Marbe166 (talk) 14:15, 30 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Reminder, simple cites only. Marbe166 (talk) 13:24, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

SIMPLE CITES ONLY! --Marbe166 (talk) 18:20, 31 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Third reminder. Next time you will be reported for disruptive editing. --Marbe166 (talk) 13:52, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Wht disruptive, Im not vandaliding articles, stop writing at me Adelberta (talk) 14:36, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not adhering to the rules of pages, despite multiple reminders, is disruptive. Marbe166 (talk) 14:38, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, side note, Facebook is not a reliable source for deaths (Emma Alegre). --Marbe166 (talk) 13:55, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Facebook could be a good source in some ways Adelberta (talk) 14:38, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

See WP:UGC. Marbe166 (talk) 14:40, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Marbe166:, do you think that rather than shouting at this new user, you could perhaps explain to them as to what "simple cites" actually are? You're not helping the situation by continuously losing your temper and threatening them, rather than trying to improve their edits. Also, Marbe166, when you blank reverted Emma Alegre, you also removed quite a few of the formatting changes I had made. Please revert these manually next time. And any subjects who are 90+ who we have no evidence of being alive for 10+ years should go in the Possibly Living People category, not in the Living one.

@Adelberta:, when you edit a normal article, there's a drop down menu for different reference types (web, news, book, journal) but on the Deaths in 2025 page, there's an additional icon. It's the one to the left of the "jigsaw icon". If you hover over it, it will say "reference". Just click on it, then all you need to do is add the website and the title of the page. Really easy! Simple cite should be used for the Deaths in 2025 page only though. On all other articles you should write a full reference out with as much information as you can provide. Hope this helps. Thanks --Jkaharper (talk) 14:56, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much @Jkaharper for all the advice ❤️ Adelberta (talk) 17:46, 2 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lola Pashalinski edit

I have reverted your addition of an unsourced date of birth to Lola Pashalinski. In addition to Wikipedia's basic principle of citing sources (Wikipedia:Citing sources), a special need for citations applies with regard to elements of a biography of a living person (WP:BLPPRIVACY). Feel free to add a date of birth when it is accompanied by a citation to a reliable, published, non-primary source. Eddie Blick (talk) 00:03, 6 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Italicized credits in Deaths in 2025

Hi. Can I just point out to you that, when you are creating italics for show credits, etc., the example below is correct?

' '[[Doctor Who|Doctor Who]]' '

Whereas the styling below is incorrect:

[[Doctor Who|' 'Doctor Who' ']]

In summation, the format marks used to create an italicized title should appear outside the wikilink marks and not inside. Thanks. Ref ^(chew)(do) 15:17, 28 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Adelberta - you are still doing it. Ref ^(chew)(do) 20:57, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Can you explain it to me if you please, I don't know how to do it, thanks. Adelberta (talk) 21:22, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are doing it, but you are not putting the '' marks in the right place - always place them outside the [[ ]] marks and not inside, as above. Whether the link is piped or not, the marks always live outside the wikilink. Ref ^(chew)(do) 21:30, 29 May 2025 (UTC)[reply]
