Please don't add the talk page header to talk pages. It's just a very wasteful use of space. I would like to see it deleted altogether, but there are cases where there are archives that it lists. If a talk page doesn't have any archives, it has no value whatsoever. Greg Bard ( talk) 20:08, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
There is no need to add discussion warning templates to every talk page, or even to every talk page that contains a discussionwhich doesn't help determine when or why they should be used. See 7

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Reinforcement learning, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Exploitation. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Theonym, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

The article List of solitary animals has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. In particular, the
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

I've performed one revert, but thought I'd open a discussion before doing any more. I would argue that this category shouldn't go onto a disambiguation page that has no entry that counts as a pejorative term. If I was browsing the category and followed a link to such a DAB page, I would be rather confused. And I'm actually thinking that disambiguation pages shouldn't go in such a category at all, since they are by definition not content pages. You should just include articles that actually describe pejorative terms. What are your thoughts? -- Fyrael ( talk) 20:55, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for creating Mindless, Dpleibovitz!
Wikipedia editor Animalparty just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Please note that all of these, except the film, are Partial title matches, which normally shouldn't be on disambiguation pages. The band Mindless Sinner is probably never or very rarely referred to as simply "Mindless" by reliable sources.

Hello,
Category:2 (number) is about the number 2 - aka the article 2. It's not for any article that vaguely involves two of something, or about concepts that apply to 2. So most if not all of your additions don't make any sense. For example, 2 is an even number, but even numbers are not two ( diff). A binary star has two of something, but 2 itself is not a binary star.
On a side note, there's a de-facto AFD open concerning the "Mindless" page you created at Talk:Mindless (film) - your page doesn't really comply with what a disambiguation page is for. SnowFire ( talk) 14:38, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello,
There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.
There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: /info/en/?search=Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how {{ infobox ship}} is parsed).
If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.

Hi Dpleibovitz, to quote MOS:DABMENTION, "If the topic is not mentioned on the other article, that article should not be linked to in the disambiguation page, since linking to it would not help readers find information about the sought topic". I agree that many things are listed on disambiguation page that are not mentioned in Wikipedia, and if editors don't remove those items, than the pages quickly lose their usefulness.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Hello. I strongly apologise to bother you, but if you don’t mind, Id like to ask you a favor. It seems that there are some errors in the articles Shadow biosphere and Desert varnish. The citations from them: Carol Cleland, a philosopher of science at the University of Colorado (Boulder), argues that desert varnish, whose status as living or nonliving has been debated since the time of Darwin, should be investigated as a potential candidate for a shadow biosphere; It has been suggested that desert varnish should be investigated as a potential candidate for a "shadow biosphere". I am almost certain it is a kind of misinterpretation or very poor paraphrasing, because the source materials clearly say that according to some scientists the Desert vanish could be a possible product (or effect) of hypothetical microorganisms, but not them themselves. For example: And a promising example is provided by the desert varnish proposed as a target by Cleland and backed by David Toomey in Weird Life. "No laboratory microbiologist has been able to coax bacteria or algae to make desert varnish," he states. "It is also possible that the stuff is the end result of some very weird chemistry but no one has been able to reproduce that either." So yes, these sites could provide proof of the shadow biosphere's existence, he argues, ( Life on Earth… but not as we know it); Cleland speculates that a microscopic form of life may have been producing desert varnish for eons, but scientists simply haven't figured out how to detect it ( Is desert varnish a pathway to detecting 'alien' life?); also, according to the sources Darwin wasn’t really wondering if it is living or nonliving, but rather biological or not - it’s not the same thing, the citation from the second one of the sources I previously mentioned: Although some scientists have claimed they solved the mystery, Cleland said nobody has really proven what causes it since Darwin himself puzzled over those dark patches of varnish in the 1800s. "He himself was wondering if they were biological," Cleland said. "He might be the first person who wondered if they were biological." Could you please take a look on it, and corect these sentences, please? You’re a much more experienced user than me, and additionally I don’t speak English very fluently, so wouldn’t want to make any mistake. I’d be very grateful for your help. Thank you in advance.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Reinforcement learning, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Exploitation.

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Theonym, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the page appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where a page has substantially identical content to that of a page deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here.

I've performed one revert, but thought I'd open a discussion before doing any more. I would argue that this category shouldn't go onto a disambiguation page that has no entry that counts as a pejorative term. If I was browsing the category and followed a link to such a DAB page, I would be rather confused. And I'm actually thinking that disambiguation pages shouldn't go in such a category at all, since they are by definition not content pages. You should just include articles that actually describe pejorative terms. What are your thoughts? -- Fyrael ( talk) 20:55, 12 January 2018 (UTC)
Thanks for creating Mindless, Dpleibovitz!
Wikipedia editor Animalparty just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
Please note that all of these, except the film, are Partial title matches, which normally shouldn't be on disambiguation pages. The band Mindless Sinner is probably never or very rarely referred to as simply "Mindless" by reliable sources.

Hello,
Category:2 (number) is about the number 2 - aka the article 2. It's not for any article that vaguely involves two of something, or about concepts that apply to 2. So most if not all of your additions don't make any sense. For example, 2 is an even number, but even numbers are not two ( diff). A binary star has two of something, but 2 itself is not a binary star.
On a side note, there's a de-facto AFD open concerning the "Mindless" page you created at Talk:Mindless (film) - your page doesn't really comply with what a disambiguation page is for. SnowFire ( talk) 14:38, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Hello,
There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.
There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: /info/en/?search=Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how {{ infobox ship}} is parsed).
If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Wikipedia:Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.

Hi Dpleibovitz, to quote MOS:DABMENTION, "If the topic is not mentioned on the other article, that article should not be linked to in the disambiguation page, since linking to it would not help readers find information about the sought topic". I agree that many things are listed on disambiguation page that are not mentioned in Wikipedia, and if editors don't remove those items, than the pages quickly lose their usefulness.

Hello,
Google Code-In, Google-organized contest in which the Wikimedia Foundation participates, starts in a few weeks. This contest is about taking high school students into the world of opensource. I'm sending you this message because you recently edited a documentation page at the English Wikipedia.
I would like to ask you to take part in Google Code-In as a mentor. That would mean to prepare at least one task (it can be documentation related, or something else - the other categories are Code, Design, Quality Assurance and Outreach) for the participants, and help the student to complete it. Please sign up at the contest page and send us your Google account address to google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org, so we can invite you in!
From my own experience, Google Code-In can be fun, you can make several new friends, attract new people to your wiki and make them part of your community.
If you have any questions, please let us know at google-code-in-admins@lists.wikimedia.org.
Thank you!

Hello. I strongly apologise to bother you, but if you don’t mind, Id like to ask you a favor. It seems that there are some errors in the articles Shadow biosphere and Desert varnish. The citations from them: Carol Cleland, a philosopher of science at the University of Colorado (Boulder), argues that desert varnish, whose status as living or nonliving has been debated since the time of Darwin, should be investigated as a potential candidate for a shadow biosphere; It has been suggested that desert varnish should be investigated as a potential candidate for a "shadow biosphere". I am almost certain it is a kind of misinterpretation or very poor paraphrasing, because the source materials clearly say that according to some scientists the Desert vanish could be a possible product (or effect) of hypothetical microorganisms, but not them themselves. For example: And a promising example is provided by the desert varnish proposed as a target by Cleland and backed by David Toomey in Weird Life. "No laboratory microbiologist has been able to coax bacteria or algae to make desert varnish," he states. "It is also possible that the stuff is the end result of some very weird chemistry but no one has been able to reproduce that either." So yes, these sites could provide proof of the shadow biosphere's existence, he argues, ( Life on Earth… but not as we know it); Cleland speculates that a microscopic form of life may have been producing desert varnish for eons, but scientists simply haven't figured out how to detect it ( Is desert varnish a pathway to detecting 'alien' life?); also, according to the sources Darwin wasn’t really wondering if it is living or nonliving, but rather biological or not - it’s not the same thing, the citation from the second one of the sources I previously mentioned: Although some scientists have claimed they solved the mystery, Cleland said nobody has really proven what causes it since Darwin himself puzzled over those dark patches of varnish in the 1800s. "He himself was wondering if they were biological," Cleland said. "He might be the first person who wondered if they were biological." Could you please take a look on it, and corect these sentences, please? You’re a much more experienced user than me, and additionally I don’t speak English very fluently, so wouldn’t want to make any mistake. I’d be very grateful for your help. Thank you in advance. Kind regards, Jojnee ( talk) 00:30, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
