Rick SantorumI didn't see a rationale for removing it either. However, an editor named User:Guy Macon recently led and effort to remove religious identification in the categories and infobox for all 2016 presidential candidates on grounds of some sort of BLP violation. See the posts he left on all of their talk pages for more detail. I attempted to re-add religious categories for several articles, but was reverted by User:Xenophrenic. I presumed that Xenophrenic had not seen the Santorum article, and so I made the revisions to save him or her the trouble of doing it. I disagree with their actions, but in my attempts to restore religious identification to the articles, I have been rebuffed, largely on the grounds that it does not substantially impact their careers. For people like Santorum, whose religion clearly impacts his politics, I find this simply wrong. Even in cases in which religion does not significantly impact the public life of a candidate, I find that the information is still as useful as a birth date or place, and should be included. I'm sorry this happened. If you want a mention of Santorum's religion in the infobox and categories restored, talk to Guy Macon or Xenophrenic, or start an RfC. If you do this, I hope you succeed. You could always contact me for assistance. Display name 99 (talk) 12:41, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
"For people like Santorum, whose religion clearly impacts his politics, I find this simply wrong." Well, yes. That would be what most editors are likely to think about the subject, and I think readers of Wikipedia would also reasonably expect to find Santorum categorized as a Catholic. His religion is pretty obviously relevant to his career as a politician, and it should be reasonably easy to find sources showing as much. In fact, I'd expect any editor who seriously wanted to improve the Rick Santorum article to find such sources. But if this kind of over-reaction is what happens when you point out that a religion-identifying category is appropriate, then to me this subject frankly is not worth dealing with at all. FreeKnowledgeCreator (talk) 01:15, 7 June 2016 (UTC) Please reconsider your deletion of a wiktionary linkYou deleted a link for a definition of the word "grisly" from the page Attacks on secularists in Bangladesh, saying that wikipedia does not define words. Please consider (1) that this is a page about Bangladesh, where English is not the official language, but many readers come to the English wikipedia for information, and (2) why would the ability to make an inline like to wiktionary exist is it is verboten, disallowed, tabu?

WITTGENSTEIN'S GRAVE IN CAMBRIDGEDue to the sheer volume of visiting tourists and others, this edit is essential; PLEASE DO NOT AMEND/REMOVE UNTIL DISCUSSION/AGREEMENT: "Wittgenstein was given a Catholic burial at Parish of the Ascension Burial Ground in Cambridge.[172] Drury later said he had been troubled ever since about whether that was the right thing to do.[173] The ledger gravestone has recently been refurbished by the British Wittgenstein Society. [174] detailed directions to his refurbished gravestone and grave can be found on http://www.britishwittgensteinsociety.org/wittgensteins-grave" 2.27.130.179 (talk) 16:47, 7 June 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 19Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Night People (2015 film), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cat's Eye. 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.
