Disambiguation link notification for February 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Spanish Society of Vexillology, a link pointing to the disambiguation page Basque Country was added. 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.)
It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, --DPL bot (talk) 07:53, 10 February 2026 (UTC)
WP:NPOV / WP:NOTPROMO
Hi. We all have our biases. And many of us, often quite reasonably and rightly, are proud of where we come from. And it's great that you seem to be proud of your community. It's great to see. However, as Wikipedia contributors, we are expected to do our best to leave our biases at the door. And edit/contribute/write from a neutral POV. This includes avoiding cherry-picking promotional quotes from sources (and copy/pasting volumes of them into articles) and generally ensuring that the articles we write don't read like a soapbox/advocacy piece for the orgs or topics that we're writing about. Speaking frankly, I don't think you fully achieved this with your recent submission covering Ballymun's Setanta Hurling Club. Which, in addition to containing copyrighted material (as noted in the feedback received in AfC submission process), and several apparent errors of fact (including conflating the Ballymun club with a similarly-named "combined" minor team from rural clubs in County Wexford), it was mostly made-up of promotional quotes - mostly from people associated with the club. This isn't "on". Please keep an eye on this and try (perhaps a little harder) to write from a neutral POV. Thanks. Guliolopez (talk) 00:47, 17 February 2026 (UTC)

Hi there, I just noticed you recently created Hunting Hills, and while we appreciate your contributions, I do want to bring to your attention WP:GNIS, which, while it is just an essay (and not a formal policy) does provide some good guidance, and WP:NPLACE which is the guidelines for what constitutes notability for places. netstars22 (talk) 05:04, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Draft:Better Ballymun Day, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. You should never remove prior declination information. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:16, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
- When the draft was refunded, it was automatically submitted because it was submitted when it was deleted and I didnt notice that until someone reviewed it not knowing it was automatically submitted. I explained what happened on their talk page, so I thought it would be fine to remove it since it was a mistake. Finnfrog99 (talk) 13:30, 17 March 2026 (UTC)

- Not really, they made a good faith review so it should stay. The only time removal of anything is OK is on your talk page, or if changes are made to rectify tags such as {{refimprove}} when refs have been added and the edit summary explains.
- Anyway everyone makes minor mistakes, this is not a big deal. Ldm1954 (talk) 13:36, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
