  Thank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Berne Convention (disambiguation). However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:

  • Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
  • Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
  • Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
    • Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
  • Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
  • Do not insert external links or references

Thank you. TJRC (talk) 01:54, 3 June 2018 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited London Convention on the Prevention of Marine Pollution by Dumping of Wastes and Other Matter, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page IMO (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.)

Dmitry Mironov (politician) moved to draft

Hello, Fixmaster,

Welcome to Wikipedia! I edit here too, under the username Barkeep49 and it's nice to meet you :-)

I wanted to let you know that I’ve moved an article that you started, Dmitry Mironov (politician), to draft space because it's a biography of a living person that lacks references. Please add a reference to the article and when the information is cited you can move it back to article space.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with {{Re|Barkeep49}}. And, don't forget to sign your reply with ~~~~ . Thanks!

Standard usage

edit

Please see my recent edits to Dubner's conjecture. In non-TeX mathematical notation, one italicizes variables, but not digits or punctuation or things like cos, log, det, max, etc. And a minus sign is much longer than a mere hyphen. Also, in standard usage, "p." means "page" and "pp." means pages; the latter is used when more than one page is reported. Michael Hardy (talk) 15:32, 17 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Recent copy-editing on Anjem Choudry

edit

Your recent fixes within the article are definitely appreciated, but it would be helpful if you could use edit summaries, even when making minor improvements, so that other editors don't necessarily have to check each individual revision, and have some idea of what you're doing when it comes up in "recent changes". Regardless, thank you for your help! Symmachus Auxiliarus (talk) 16:16, 9 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Hello, I'm Hakken. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Ray-tracing hardware, but you didn't provide a reliable source.

Quantum PCP Conjecture moved to draftspace

edit

An article you recently created, Quantum PCP Conjecture, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.
