Conversations from June 2006 to December 2007 have been moved to a second archive. -Drdisque (talk) 03:14, 4 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nearly 5 years later, I've finally bothered to create a third archive. -Drdisque (talk) 15:21, 28 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please place new comments under here=[edit]

Drdisque, any chance you can take a look at my edits on Rahal-Hogan RH-001? I checked all the facts on there against the various yearbooks and reliable sources and made some corrections/rewrites. I don't have a lot of experience making significant edits, so I would appreciate a second opinion before removing the "citations needed" banner. Reaching out to you since you had voted to keep the article in 2016. Thanks! Checkpoint10 (talk) 19:30, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Dear Drdisque, Please disregard the following request, except as notification of the reason for the page move. I was able to make the move myself. Thank you so much again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.243.237.133 (talk) 11:59, 5 January 2015 (UTC) Thank you for a great start on RC Enerson's Wikipedia entry. Could you please move the page to reflect the correct spelling of his name? RC Enerson never goes by R.C.. I entered a technical request here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Requested_moves/Technical_requests#Uncontroversial_technical_requests , but I keep getting an error message that claims that R.C. Enerson page wasn't yet created. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TracySays (talk • contribs) 14:40, 4 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

WRT Brandeis ZBT "chapter": ZBT does not get to decide what carries the "Brandeis" name. Brandeis does and they have decided that ZBT can't use it. As a compromise, how about carrying this entry with an asterix indicating that "Brandeis neither permits nor recgonizes fraternities?"

Dear Drdisque,

The following sentence was removed from the Career Section because its redundant information. Its clearly stated in the Racing Record Section and is not necessary to clutter the Career Section. Thank you for your cooperation.

"Younessi ultimately only made two race starts, at the season opener in St. Petersburg and in June in Detroit."

Disambiguation link notification for April 2[edit]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Kyle O'Gara, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Roncalli High School (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.

Chong Chon Gang article - Category deletion[edit]

Hi. Regarding your removal of the International sanctions, Embargoes, and Blockades categories from the article; the Chong Chon Gang has been involved in sanctions busting and evading arms embargoes, effectively acting as a blockade runner through and around various efforts to enforce self same sanctions and embargoes. So why should the above categories not apply? Thanks. 83.70.243.45 (talk) 18:39, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

By the way, wouldn't the Chong Chon Gang be suitable for inclusion in Category:Smuggling as a modern day smuggling ship? 83.70.243.45 (talk) 18:46, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]


In reponse to reply:

Fair enough. I had wondered about putting it under the Arms trafficking subcategory, but it seems that she was involved in more than just smuggling of weapons. But I'll put her there for the moment. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I answered here because I'm still not 100% sure of the protocol when using temporary talk pages. 83.70.243.45 (talk) 19:03, 19 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

August 2013[edit]

Stop icon

Your recent editing history at Charles Hall (racing driver) shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. -- Mufka (u) (t) (c) 18:32, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Skip Barber National Championship may have broken the syntax by modifying 2 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • *[[E. J. Viso]] ([[Formula 3000]], [[GP2 Series]], IndyCar Series]])

Article Feedback Tool update[edit]

Hey Drdisque. I'm contacting you because you're involved in the Article Feedback Tool in some way, either as a previous newsletter recipient or as an active user of the system. As you might have heard, a user recently anonymously disabled the feedback tool on 2,000 pages. We were unable to track or prevent this due to the lack of logging feature in AFT5. We're deeply sorry for this, as we know that quite a few users found the software very useful, and were using it on their articles.

We've now re-released the software, with the addition of a logging feature and restrictions on the ability to disable. Obviously, we're not going to automatically re-enable it on each article—we don't want to create a situation where it was enabled by users who have now moved on, and feedback would sit there unattended—but if you're interested in enabling it for your articles, it's pretty simple to do. Just go to the article you want to enable it on, click the "request feedback" link in the toolbox in the sidebar, and AFT5 will be enabled for that article.

Again, we're very sorry about this issue; hopefully it'll be smooth sailing after this :). If you have any questions, just drop them at the talkpage. Thanks! Okeyes (WMF) 22:02, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
