I was wondering why you removed the link I added to my web site? It is an essential source for information about the state of Michigan. Echosyst ( talk) 00:13, 1 January 2010 (UTC)Gary Ritz
Hello Bkonrad. I notice you've reverted some of the edits of this IP on Michigan Legislature and Michigan Senate. He's been making a so-far-futile attempt to file a proper report about you at WP:AN3. Blocking confused people is hardly worth it, so could you try leaving a message at User talk:75.129.106.189 about the style issues? (From a quick look I assume that he's changing the style and won't take no for an answer). Thanks, EdJohnston ( talk) 21:06, 1 January 2010 (UTC)
Hello, you undid my copy/paste move to the page Gutenberg. The reason it was a copy/paste move is because the page at Gutenberg (disambigulation) already exists, so I had to change it around. Since you appear to have reverted my edit because it was copy/paste, I will retore it to my revision. If you disagree with the premise of by move (that Gutenberg generally refers to Johannes Gutenberg), feel free to reply, and we'll work something out. Regards, The Userboxer Complain/ ubx 20:08, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
I completely agree with your removal, and have removed the information again myself...but I'm not sure your edits would qualify as being exempt from WP:3RR. Edit summaries as the main form of communication generally doesn't work the best in a dispute. -- Onorem ♠ Dil 20:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
I noticed that you added further descriptive information to entries on Nighthawks (disambiguation). I would offer that, since we're only disambiguating titles on such a page, we need only enough description to distinguish amongst listed topics. Observe that MOS:DAB indicates that distracting information should be avoided. ENeville ( talk) 05:39, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
Links to the county's web site appear in two places: once at the top, in a summary data box, and once at the bottom.
I found the links were dead and located a fresh link. I updated the second instance (at the bottom of the page) but couldn't figure out how to edit the top instance (in the info box).

Is there any particular reason you delete my Balmoral College [1] ? -- Jor70 ( talk) 15:17, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi Bkonrad,
Could you please stop undo my work in those sports-related (mostly basketball-related) articles. The title "China Basketball Association" is incorrect and must be changed to "Basketball Association of the People's Republic of China". Also, I am going to create some articles for those so-called "redlinks with few or no other incoming links and no indication of potential for article" and expand them in the future. Could you leave them alone for the time being, thanks.

I disagree with your revert on Season One. Can you please discuss. 174.3.98.236 ( talk) 16:45, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Not to butt in, but I took a look at the article in question (this [ revision]). I find the link in the hatnote very confusing and less than helpful. Imzadi1979 ( talk) 02:27, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
Could you have a look at this change please? I'm not sure that an editor, particularly this editor, should have removed the text without first obtaining consensus.
(This particular editor has been using my contributions list to help decide where to edit (there is no other explanation for the articles chosen and the edits made). He is applying a number of guidelines in a very literal and almost aggressive manner, and this is causing me increasing stress and severely interrupting my own contributions to WP. I suspect I shall have to come up with a strategy to cope with this, as direct discussions are unproductive!)

Hi Bkonrad,
I recently added an entry for the Canadian band "Madison Violet" to the page "Madison". You removed it with a comment that is too short for me to understand completely: "rm partial match with no indication it is ambiguous with the term being disambiguated".
IMHO, "Madison Guaranty" fits in the same category (consists on "Madison" followed by a non-general expression (not like "High School" etc.), however, "Madison Guaranty" is still on the page. :)
Could you explain to me what you mean, please?
And: do you have a suggestion how I (or anyone else) should/could write in such a disambiguation page.
Kind regards, WikiReviewer.de ( talk) 21:03, 26 February 2010 (UTC)
Here's a quick example of a dab page with buildings/structures in the ==Places== section: Waterloo (disambiguation)
I've seen loads of dab pages like this, seems to be the most common arrangement. 92.4.41.73 ( talk) 15:30, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
