User talk:Zyxw/Archive 9Archive of User talk:Zyxw for 2013 Disambiguation link notification for January 4Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Tucson International Airport, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Phoenix International Airport (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Can you update the doc page to reflect what the template now allows, so that the articles that use it will more likely get maintained correctly? Dicklyon (talk) 17:59, 7 January 2013 (UTC)

Towns and Villages of New York StateI am incredibly impressed with the work you put in making the table for the huge number of towns in the List of towns in New York page. Will you be able to make a similar table for List of villages in New York? Inkan1969 (talk) 01:25, 10 January 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 11:50, 28 April 2013 (UTC) Airport in WisconsinI notice that you created several articles about airports in Wisconsin over past several the years. Since you're more familiar with the resources available for airport articles, would you please create an airport page for the Town of Palmyra airport just outside of Palmyra, Wisconsin? I photographed the site while on a recent road trip. The images are found at Commons here. Please link to the Commons category. There is an issue with the name of the article. I see the name reserved for the article is Palmyra Municipal Airport. Notice that the sign for the airport reads "Town of Palmyra Airport". Please be aware of the Political subdivisions of Wisconsin page which describes that the town of Palmyra is different than village of Palmyra. A town is not a municipality. A town is the rural land between villages and cities. So I think that the PDF from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation is wrong, or at least it should be questioned.

Hello, Zyxw, and thank you for your contributions! An article you worked on Joshua Sanford Field, appears to be directly copied from http://www.airports-worldwide.com/usa/florida/deland_municipal_sidney_h_taylor_field_florida.htm. Please take a minute to make sure that the text is freely licensed and properly attributed as a reference, otherwise the article may be deleted. It's entirely possible that this bot made a mistake, so please feel free to remove this notice and the tag it placed on Joshua Sanford Field if necessary. MadmanBot (talk) 09:34, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

You recently removed the USC IATA code entry from the IATA code list: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_airports_by_IATA_code:_U&diff=next&oldid=557980105 . While you are right that USC does not reference Union County Airport, IATA actually references USC as an "off-line point" for Union, South Carolina (hence the IATA code). Note that the IATA's code search page does not provide information on non-airport-typed POR (points of reference): they provide information only for airport-typed POR; however, in their database, which they reserve for their paying subscribers, IATA reference any travel-related POR such as heliports, bus and railway stations, ferry and maritimes ports, as well as "off-line points". AFAIU, an "off-line point" is a POR which is not used by online reservation systems, but which is a convenient way to reference travel-related POR. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Denis.arnaud (talk • contribs) 08:45, 9 June 2013 Disambiguation link notification for June 13Hi.

The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media). If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

Hi Zyxw. I noticed that you moved Enterprise Municipal Airport, Oregon to Enterprise Municipal Airport (Oregon) with the edit summary "standard format for airport disambiguation is parentheses when state is not part of name". The policy at Wikipedia:Article_titles#Disambiguation, is to use a comma, and that is the guidance also given at Wikipedia:WikiProject Aviation/Style guide/Naming (Airports). There are various reasons for this, one of which is that it is natural to write Enterprise Municipal Airport, Oregon in a sentence, but it isn't natural to write Enterprise Municipal Airport (Oregon), therefore editors have to write [[Enterprise Municipal Airport (Oregon)|Enterprise Municipal Airport, Oregon]] when linking to the article. It is also awkward and clumsy for readers to see brackets. I note that a number of other airport articles were also moved from Comma-separated to Parenthetical disambiguation. I am quite comfortable with doing those moves again, but thought I'd raise it with you first, in case you wanted to talk over it a bit more. SilkTork ✔Tea time 01:04, 14 October 2013 (UTC)
Ha. I hadn't recalled it was me who had updated the style guide! OK, I'll start a requested move.

A tag has been placed on ETUL requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable. 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 "Click here to 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.
