Full MeasureThank you for reverting the previously undiscussed move of Full Measure per my request. Unfortunately, the person whose move you reverted has now "contested" that move by filing a malformed move request (see the talk page). I would suggest the user in question should close that request and file a new one instead, but I was hoping you could tell me how best to carry on. Calidum T|C 19:50, 31 December 2015 (UTC)

We noticed though that when you edited Sudoku Codes, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Erasure channel. 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.

Your edit to the page Arya Vaishya'sIf your intentions is to protect Wikipedia with coherent articles then I have a similar view. The article Arya Vaishya had been corrected but you reverted it to the version with errors. For example: The article talks about a particular community called Arya Vaishya's but gives references to other community not related in any way called the Balijas. What purpose does it serve rather than confuse readers or give misleading information? Would be glad to discuss this further to make this discussion meaningful! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.172.113.187 (talk) 00:06, 29 January 2016
Weird page movesHowdy Phil! There is a strange situation that, as I look through the logs, seems to be happening every 2 days. A new user is creating a page in their sandbox, then moving an unrelated disambiguation page to the title that matches the subject of their sandbox, editing the disambiguation page to effectively restore it, then copy/pasting their sandbox into the moved article. That description is probably confusing, so here are the details of the situations (the most recent is first): User:Jacob of Marshes created text for The Eternity Rose in their sandbox (it's still there).
User:Lametwig created text for Muhammad bin Ibrahim Salamah is their sandbox (it's still there).
User:Graytheme created text for Greg Becker is their sandbox (it's still there).
No sandox for this next one:
User:Akram Butt 90 created text for Greg Becker is their sandbox (it's still there).
The contributions of each of these editors are only the edits to perform the above. They have no other edits. At this point, only the minor contribution histories of the two disambiguation pages are in the wrong place, but this seems rather strange. I wonder if this is going on with pages with more substantial histories. As to the inevitable question of why I put this here, I thought that this might trigger a memory of yours or of one of your talk page watchers of a similar situation from the past. -Niceguyedc Go Huskies! 12:22, 28 January 2016 (UTC)

William Schaw LindsayHello Phil. You've pre-empted me! I've been intending to start a Wiki on WSL for ages but, being an inexperienced wiki editor I've given it a low priority. In association with Bill Lindsay, WSL's g-g grandson, I'm attempting to write WSL's biography. I'm about a quarter of the way through the task. It's a vast subject and I've got an incredible amount of information including most of Hilda Kirkwood's transcribed versions of WSL's Journal which I've converted to Word form. I hope you won't mind my contributing to your article. Regards, Robert Cutts, Bristol UK Bristol Filer (talk) 09:15, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
More on LindsayHello Phil. I've added more details of WSL's parliamentary career in the opening paragraph. I've also linked to constituencies rather than towns. I would like to cite Clark pp 292-294 at the end of this paragraph but I can't work out how to do it. Please help! The next thing I propose to do is to add detail to the opening paragraph of the Career section. It would start something like (revised since last night): "Lindsay was born in Ayr in south-west Scotland, the youngest by five years of the five children of Joseph Lindsay, a merchant of Ayr, and his wife Mary, née Belch. A few months before the birth, Joseph’s business failed. He took to drink, left the family and died four years later. When Lindsay’s birth was due, his mother, by then homeless, was given temporary shelter in the manse of her brother-in-law, the Rev William Schaw. He was the minister in Ayr of the Burgher Secession Church and his wife, Janet, was Mary’s older sister. The birth took place during a violent nocturnal storm in the early hours of 19 December 1815. On New Year’s Day 1816, Lindsay was baptised by his uncle. Soon after, he was taken by his mother to the Gorbals in Glasgow where, for 10 years until her death in 1825, she eked out a living taking in lodgers. During that time, Lindsay’s schooling was rudimentary. After his mother's death, he returned to Ayr where, for five years, he was brought up by his uncle and aunt. They sent him to Ayr Academy where a distinguished new rector, Dr John Memes had just been installed. . . . " The citations for this would come mainly from the Lindsay collection in the Caird library at Greenwich ( http://collections.rmg.co.uk/archive/objects/531575.html ). They would have batch numbers such as LND/35/1 Followed by the page numbers. If you think this too much detail, please say so, but I must say that he such an important person that he deserves to be treated in an appropriate way. Regards, Robert--Bristol Filer (talk) 18:50, 19 February 2016 (UTC)
Citation problems with the Lindsay collection at the Caird libraryThanks Phil. Yes, I can see there's problem with the Caird library documentation. Hilda Kirkwood's transcriptions of Lindsay's Journal (which are held there) are not published on-line and I don't think the Library has any intention of doing this in the future. As I told you, I've further transcribed them into Word form. I've also put PDF versions on my Google drive both of Kirkwood's original typescript and of my transcriptions of them of them. I would be happy to put them in the public domain, but I need to get permission from the Library first. I'm going there early next month and I will put the idea to them. However, they weren't very happy about it last time I broached the matter a couple of years ago. Meanwhile, you're welcome to view them yourself providing you don't put them on-line. To be able to have access to them you would need to give me your email address or some other identification. By the way, Clark made many references to documents in the WSL collection at the Caird Library. If he can do that, I don't see why I shouldn't do the same. After all, anyone who wants to can go to the Caird Library and see them themselves. My citations would give a batch number such as LND/35/1 along with the particular page number(s). Regards, Robert (or Bob if you like). PS – Sorry this is all in one paragraph. I don't know how to do a carriage return! --Bristol Filer (talk) 08:57, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
Please type your message title hereHello again Phil I'm still having trouble with constructing a reference for the Caird Library items. I didn't find any of the four templates satisfactory so I thought I'd copy the format of the American Papers reference that you added. But, when I click on [edit] in the References section, it isn't there! Then I looked at the Wiki of Lindsay's friend Richard Cobden. That has 33 notes in the Reference section but, when you click on edit, you can't see any of them! Please tell me where they are. How can I edit an existing reference (if I wanted to) if I can't see it? Btw, Bill (WSL's g-g grandson, William Stewart Lindsay) is currently transcribing The American papers of W S Lindsay 1861-1866 with the introduction by Dr. Geoffrey Seed, University of St Andrews [Scotland]. Do you know if they're the same as the American Papers at University of Missouri? If they're already transcribed, I should let Bill know before he waste any more time on the job. Sorry to be a pain, Bob--Bristol Filer (talk) 16:07, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
Problems! Problems! Problems!Thanks yet again Phil. I really do appreciate you're help – and I am learning slowly. I do most of my learning by copying the format of other people's work. It certainly was a bit difficult to do it that way in the case of the references! I now have a problem of a different sort. I'm afraid that there are a few errors in the WS Wiki as it stands (for example the ship he took to Liverpool was not a collier, she was the George Burns packet steamer, the Glasgow which sailed from the Broomielaw Quay in Glasgow direct to Liverpool ). I attempted to put them right piecemeal (working off-line) but found it more satisfying – though certainly not quicker – to start from scratch. The process has resulted in what, if I continued in that vein, would become a very long article. I've only reached the point at which he gives up his life at sea and yet have written over 3000 words. The problem is – and, as problems go, it's really quite a pleasant one – that his life was incredibly interesting. At the rate I'm going it would be about 12,000 words in all. As a comparison, here are a few examples of articles and their word lengths:
I would feel quite bad about merely replacing the work you have done so far. The alternative would be to go back to the piecemeal method. I would welcome your thoughts on the matter. To help you make a judgement, by the end of this morning I will put what I've written so far on my talk page – if I can work out how to do that! If you're really unhappy about what I'm doing I would put what I'm writing on a separate website, probably a Google one. A link to that site could then be put in the WSL Wiki for the benefit of anyone who wants more detail. However, I must say, that would not be my favourite solution. Best wishes, Bob --Bristol Filer (talk) 10:25, 21 February 2016 (UTC) Please type your message title hereHello Phil I've done the whole thing, it's on my sandbox at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Bristol_Filer/sandbox although the latter part needs some more detail. It's not as long as thought it would be – about 3400 words. The estimate I made was based on a miscalculation! Sorry to alarm you. I reckon when I've expanded the last pat it'll be 5000 words. I'm busy italicising the ship names and doing indents. Regards, Bob — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bristol Filer (talk • contribs) 12:59, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
Please type your message title hereYes it's a draft, Phil. I'm currently adding links and references. I'm also adding the material in the existing article into the draft rather than the other way round. I will in any case keep everything in the sandbox until you approve it. The references are going to take quite a long time. Regards, Bob -- PS I'm not actually new to Wikipedia editing. I've been doing it for about five years. But I've only made the occasional minor edit. I don't know why I'm called Bristol filer. It wasn't my choice but I'm sticking with it. Bristol Filer (talk) 15:08, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
References for the volumes of Lindsay's JournalHello Phil – yet again! I think I've sorted this problem out for myself. Time will tell. I would like to have dedicated references for each of the five volumes of Lindsay's Journal. The first seemed to be successful so I tried using that as a template to enter the other four volumes simply by incrementing the numbers by one each time they occurred. It looked neat and tidy but, as I'm sure you'll see, it didn't work! What did I do wrong? The system told me there was an error and took me to Missing |lastn= in Authors/Editors list. To me that page was imcomprehensible. Help! – but no panic as I've plenty of other work to do on the project. BW, --Bristol Filer (talk) 19:03, 21 February 2016 (UTC)
A thought...Just brainstorming now: I got this, The Robert Lowe, from Bristol Filer during today's session. A very interesting website he apparently have made. Now, he's interested in writing an article about that ship here on the WP. So... Is there a way, if he is interested, that he could first release his text on the website with a proper Commons license and then just copy the text to a draft here. While it is a draft, the refs could be inserted as inline citations and the text could be wikiied. I think this could save a lot of time and rewriting to avoid the possible hassle with copyvio of his own text. Thoughts? Later, w.carter-Talk 16:08, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

A bit supervoteyThis seems highly irregular, and looks like a WP:NSUPER, in which case I object to it, and it should be reverted. The proper process to dispute a properly closed RM that ran its course is WP:MR. No actual WP:ENGVAR issues apply at all; that guideline appplies to mainspace content, not template names. We routinely move them, when the are part of a set, into consistency with each other for maintenance reasons. Even if ENGVAR's "retain" provisions could be extrapolated this far (they cannot; it's very explicitly only about the content at a particular mainspace article), the rule is that it applies when change would be arbitrary and without a good reason; template name consistency in
