CS1 error on Anthony Milford
Please check this page and fix the errors highlighted. If you think this is a false positive, you can report it to my operator. Thanks, Qwerfjkl (bot) (talk) 10:35, 11 June 2023 (UTC) Script-powered changesHello Moist hammer, I reverted you on TSR awhile ago. After I was later reverted, I reverted again with some more detailed comments in the edit summary for the problems diff. While (unfortunately, IMO, as there's some black-letter, policy guidelines saying otherwise) yet others reverted me and restored your edit for very poor reasons IMO (and I'll let it go because whatever, I don't own the page), I remain concerned with whatever script you're using. There's no need to remove double spaces, which as my later edit summary noted are explicitly allowed and thus not a problem. Same with changing explicity ndashes / mdashes into Unicode characters (hyphens and ndashes look totally identical to me and thus make it difficult to know which form of dash is being used, so your change removes my ability to double-check that even though I'm the editor who added this content). However, even if that's a lost battle and just SnowFire being cranky (plenty of people "disagree" with me on these, despite the fact that Wikipedia endorses multiple editing styles that are invisible and harmless to the user), I see you're still making some changes that are not good in general quite aside from my preferences. Notably, it seems you switch the order of two references in a row sometimes? I can't understand the reason for doing such a thing, but it's a meaningless, "noise" change that has no impact on the article. Whatever system is doing that isn't worth it. You also are still changing author-link to authorlink (sample diff). This is the reverse of the canonical form - if anything, scripts should do the *reverse* and change authorlink to author-link. See Help:Citation_Style_1#Authors. Finally, in the TSR edit, you added in an "of the same name" easter egg link. This is, admittedly, a somewhat common pattern on Wikipedia, but it's a very bad one. See WP:OFTHESAMENAME - which yes, is an essay not a policy, but it's an antipattern writing style that should be avoided whenever possible. And even if you do like it for articles you maintain, it absolutely should not be added by a script as a Wikignome passerby thing. (EDIT: And one other thing - you modified bestseller list to best-seller list? One, that isn't an error, and two, while both forms are valid, you've modified to the rarer version. Again, fine as a stylistic choice on an article you're writing, but not something to impose on many unrelated articles you haven't written - it's not an "error." Also, you changed the spacing around hyphens, but you should never ever modify anything inside a quote for any reason other than checking the source and seeing that it doesn't match Wikipedia - see MOS:QUOTE, quoting overrides basically any local style guide here.) I hope the above doesn't come across as too aggressive or hostile, but I'd kinda hoped that you'd have read the edit summary and at least slowed down, but maybe getting reverted made you conclude that everything is fine. Even if you refuse to listen to me on things like double spaces (despite, as noted above, being explicitly allowed, if a rarer style), I think the author-link and "of the same name" changes are important. Is it possible to modify your script to not do them? SnowFire (talk) 03:09, 15 June 2023 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 11Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Jecca Craig, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Environmental conservation. 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) 06:06, 11 August 2023 (UTC) NBA pick tradesPlease stop changing the unambiguous better/best/worse/worst to the two possible meanings of higher/lower language; this page is for general users, not those who are thinking higher = lower number. Or change it to the officially used more/most/less/least favorable used in current NBA press releases. G. Timothy Walton (talk) 19:37, 15 August 2023 (UTC)
author-link parameter
Please don't change There's no reason to change the parameter's correct name to an incorrect one that still works, and in fact there is reason to do the reverse.

Please note that making edits that do not change how the published page looks, automated or not, is heavily recommended against per WP:COSMETICBOT., and should only be made alongside an edit that changes things, unless the edit fixes a lint error. Also, removing the space from e.g. <br /> actually breaks the intended compatibility with XHTML when adding the slash. Aaron Liu (talk) 14:49, 26 February 2024 (UTC)
BRILLIf you look at BRILL you'll see it's tagged as a miscapitalization, so replacing Brill Publishers with BRILL is a step in a bad direction. You could use [[Brill Publishers|Brill]] if you prefer.

I'm curious what the basis is for that change given the documentation for the template shows "Tied" being capitalized. I don't necessarily object to lowercase on the face of it, but for consistency's sake across the many hundreds of season articles, I think the documentation should be followed.

I have a particular question for you, as I want to settle this once and for all to know what I am supposed to be doing, about City/State redirects. In my interpretation of the WP:NOTBROKEN rule, I don't see a reason to spell out Saint Paul, Minnesota and then redirect to St. Paul, MN which is why it was written with the redirect. Is there a precedent for this I should look to? This is something that is constantly being "corrected" and then "corrected" again on many sports pages, and I want a concrete directive.
