Disambiguation link notification for March 3 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited List of shipwrecks of Australia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Lively. 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.)

adding to list of shipwrecks of oz edit

you might see the items listed are to blue linked completed articles about the misadventure - it would help to keep the convention going, and you might get queried about that... thanks for adding items - please understand the wa level might be more appropriate where there is not yet an article about the ship/shipwreck... thanks JarrahTree 09:28, 4 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Hi JarrahTree yes it did occur to me after that edit that Jon Jim might not qualify as a 'significant' wreck. I'll try to be judicious when considering adding further items.SDavies (talk) 13:26, 4 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
Judicious? = need to have a sense of balance as to whether you can create an article about a wreck - and with sufficient material that passes notability as opposed to significance - (semantics) - and then it is a viable item (most wrecks in wa that have material about the ship and the wrecking can be deemed notable) - despite the vast amounts of info in databases and textual materials that relate to wrecks - very few have been written up on wikipedia).
