Speedy deletion nomination of Lebanese Christians (disambiguation)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Lebanese Christians (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

• disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
• disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
• is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and removing the speedy deletion tag. Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 20:15, 6 January 2025 (UTC)

Hyginus

Hi Natg 19, I think we've decided that the best solution would be to disambiguate all of the links to head to Gaius Julius Hyginus. If you're still so inclined, that'd be a great help. Thanks! – Michael Aurel (talk) 22:27, 1 February 2025 (UTC)

Edit summaries

Hi, edits like this and this are not disambiguation. DuncanHill (talk) 23:14, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

Hi, sorry for the confusion. That link Secretary of State for Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Affairs formerly redirected to the disambiguation page Foreign secretary, so I made the changes to directly link it to Foreign Secretary (United Kingdom). Later on, a different user directly redirected the previous link to FS (UK). Natg 19 (talk) 00:11, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

The confusion is caused by the perennial silly-buggery about capital letters. The SSFCD page should always and only ever link to the page about the British FS. People move things and then don't bother to fix incoming redirects. DuncanHill (talk) 00:22, 20 February 2025 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Franz Wagner (disambiguation)

The article Franz Wagner (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unnecessary disambiguation page

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Frost 15:23, 13 April 2025 (UTC)

Nomination of Franz Wagner (disambiguation) for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Franz Wagner (disambiguation) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Franz Wagner (disambiguation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article until the discussion has finished.

Hello. A few days ago, you relisted the discussion of Miguel Márquez because of "confusion". Well... it got even more confusing, so what now? Barr Theo (talk) 03:09, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

@Barr Theo We can wait for an administrator to make a decision on the AfD. I personally still think this leans delete, but as a non administrator, I do not have the ability to delete pages. Natg 19 (talk) 03:20, 22 April 2025 (UTC)

Imprecise text in the differentiator circuit?

Hi. In https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differentiator#Passive_differentiator the text states that the capacitive differentiator is a good differentiator at frequencies well below the filter's cutoff frequency. Shouldn't it be good at frequencies well ABOVE it? I guess it's the same as a pass-high filter. THANKS for your work! 31.171.151.130 (talk) 13:50, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

You have recently edited a page related to India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan, a topic designated as contentious. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and does not imply that there are any issues with your editing.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as contentious topics. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have an expanded level of powers and discretion in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit carefully and constructively, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

• adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;
• comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;
• follow editorial and behavioural best practices;
• comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and
• refrain from gaming the system.

Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics procedures, you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard or you may learn more about this contentious topic here. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{Ctopics/aware}} template.

Explain your edit

Would you care to explain why you made this edit reverting my change of where San Diego, United States directs? Seeing as you only wrote "undo" for an edit summary, it seems reasonable to ask. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 18:27, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

The city in California is already the primary topic for "San Diego", so I believe it is also correct to also direct San Diego, United States to the same target, instead of to the disambiguation page. Additionally, for a 9-year old redirect, I believe Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion is a better place to discuss/change the target of a redirect. Natg 19 (talk) 18:30, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

Fair enough, thank you. I do disagree and have brought it up for discussion here. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 18:59, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

Hi Natg, Thank you for getting me out of the old emails and over to the bookcase.

Further work on Michael Rosen (author)?

Hi, Natg-

I had just started looking at the Michael Rosen moves when you fixed it--thanks so much--but I think there are still a couple of issues. I don't know if you're still looking at this. One is that Michael Rosen is a link to Michael Rosen (disambiguation) instead of the other way around. The other is that because of this, the fact that there are still 436 links to the (redirect to the) DAB is mostly invisible. Is there a request outstanding to swap the DAB and the redirect?

Thanks, Dan Bloch (talk) 02:24, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

Actually the second thing I said probably isn't true. The bot probably will update the DAB with {{incoming links}} but it hasn't gotten around to it yet. Dan Bloch (talk) 02:32, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

@Danbloch yeah this does need to be swapped. The original mover created a dab page at Michael Rosen and did not realize there was already a dab page at Michael Rosen (disambiguation). But on 2nd thought, I have been wondering if the author is the primary topic for Michael Rosen, and if the move needs to be reverted / further discussed. Natg 19 (talk) 03:12, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

I did wonder about that. Michael Rosen the author has 27 times as many page views as all the other Michael Rosens together. Dan Bloch (talk) 03:35, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

@Danbloch a request has been opened (not by me) to revert the page move. Natg 19 (talk) 16:53, 8 July 2025 (UTC)

Harvard University?

What's the idea of replacing "Harvard College" with "Harvard University" in so many places? Do you plan to do this for people who attended Radcliffe? Or for people who attended the B-school, the med school, the law school, the Kennedy school, etc.? "Harvard College" just fits the bill for people who attended Harvard College. The way that Harvard draws its org chart (I know that not all universities do it this way), Harvard College still exists as an entity, and operates independently of the other schools. Bruce leverett (talk) 01:28, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

@Bruce leverett:

I have been trying to "update" prose to match up with infoboxes as many infoboxes say Alma Mater of Harvard University, but in the prose, it just mentions attending Harvard College. Though College may be technically accurate (as the undergraduate college), it seemed odd to me to use the subunit of Harvard College instead of the overall institution of Harvard University. Is it incorrect to say that an person is a graduate or attendee of Harvard University? (vs Harvard College)

I also think that the use of Harvard College could be a mistake by those who intend to refer to the University as a whole.

I have been reverted for this by others as well, so I will refrain from continuing while this talk discussion is ongoing.

(also pinging Hawkeye7, Midnightdreary and WFinch) Natg 19 (talk) 21:54, 12 July 2025 (UTC)

The J. Robert Oppenheimer article originally said "Harvard University", but was changed to "Harvard College" in 2008 with the comment "more accurately". Hawkeye7 (discuss) 00:31, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

Thanks for explaining why you were doing this. Of course, if the infobox and the article disagree with one another, either one can be changed.

As far as I know, if a person graduated from Harvard College, it is OK to say that he graduated from Harvard University. But it is also OK to say he graduated from Harvard College.

Regarding the other schools, if a person graduated from Radcliffe, it is OK to say that she graduated from Radcliffe, but since many readers may not immediately know that Radcliffe was part of Harvard University, some of our articles about Radcliffe graduates say things like "Radcliffe College of Harvard University". For example Ursula K. Le Guin says this in the text, but the infobox just says "Radcliffe College". There may be similar situations with, for example, the Kennedy School, and well-known schools in other universities, such as Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Harvard College is really an "undergraduate college". Harvard really is drawing the org chart in a distinctive way, because many professors teach both undergraduate and graduate courses. The implication for us is that if someone went to Harvard as an undergraduate, we can confidently say they went to Harvard College, and if we say that, readers know that that was the person's undergraduate alma mater.

In conversation, when we are describing where someone went to college, we seldom use either "college" or "university". For example, we say "He went to Harvard", or "He went to Pitt". But this is formal writing, where we are expected to say something formal, I suppose.

"Harvard University" may in some cases be anachronism. Harvard didn't become a university until around 1780. I don't think any of your edits so far have dealt with pre-1780 students, but I didn't check closely.

In the edit to Joseph McCarthy, we are paraphrasing some (unnamed) speaker, and I do not know, without access to the cited source, whether the speaker said "Harvard", "Harvard College", or "Harvard University". Since it's in the context of a dinner given by an undergraduate organization, perhaps we should link to Harvard College, but since the speaker probably didn't say that, perhaps we should just pipe that to Harvard.

In Harvard Crimson, we're talking about NCAA varsity sports, which is (correct me if I'm wrong) strictly an undergraduate thing, so perhaps we should stick with Harvard College. In your edit to Harvard University, you were in text that was talking about varsity sports, so again, it is perhaps appropriate for the text to say "Harvard College" rather than "Harvard".

Since either Harvard College or Harvard University is OK to use for someone who attended Harvard as an undergraduate, I would say that if you really want consistency between the text and the infobox, you are free to modify either to match the other. But for the same reason, this consistency isn't necessarily something worth fighting for. Bruce leverett (talk) 03:25, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

Hello, former Harvard University employee here. Just a quick way to summarize: Not all Harvard University grads are Harvard College grads, but all Harvard College grads are Harvard University grads. --Midnightdreary (talk) 11:38, 13 July 2025 (UTC)

Tool for DisamAssist

Hope you are doing well. I wanted to reach out because I noticed that you are also working on cleaning up disambiguation links using DisamAssist. For me, it is a bit annoying having to click the skip button when choosing to pass over certain links, so I just made a user script that allows you to use the space bar to skip the current disambiguation page instead of the button itself.

Just wanted to share with you in case that's a pain point for you as well!

importScript('User:3602kiva/DisamAssist-Skip.js'); is the line of code to add onto the Special:MyPage/common.js page. It should not interfere with anything else.

Reversion of disambiguation redirect

Hi, I noticed you manually reverted my edit that changed the redirect Kalahari from Kalahari Desert to Kalahari (disambiguation). Could you explain? I disagree that Kalahari Desert would be a primary target prioritized more than several of the other similar pages found on the disambiguation page. FMRadio :3_{(chat | edits | she/her)} 21:04, 14 January 2026 (UTC)

@FMRadio: do you have evidence that the Kalahari Desert is not the primary topic? The desert to me meets the long-term significance criterion. Natg 19 (talk) 21:37, 14 January 2026 (UTC)

Regarding the title move

You have moved “List of Indian Bengali films of 2021” back to “List of Bengali films of 2021.” Could you please explain why you did this? The page clearly states that this list refers to films from the Indian state of West Bengal. Moreover, the term “Bengali” does not refer only to West Bengal—it also includes Bangladesh. In that case, how justified is it to label a list that includes only West Bengal’s films as “Bengali films”? রিজওয়ান আহমেদ (talk) 02:27, 15 January 2026 (UTC)

@রিজওয়ান আহমেদ: I do not have an issue with the page titles, but I reverted your "move" as the process is incorrect. If you wish to move an article, but there is already history at the title, you need to go through WP:Requested moves. Copying and pasting is not a correct way to move a page.

The Bund dab

Hi,

I was just wondering if you mind if I mass-rollback the disambiguation from The Bund to The Bund (Shanghai). I've reverted the undiscussed move as the article is long-established and identified as the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC (and a similar move has been reverted before, in 2015). If there's an easier way to restore links, I'm all ears. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 12:51, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

@Crisco 1492 arrgh, yes that is fine to do a mass rollback/revert. Don't know if there is a better way. Natg 19 (talk) 17:11, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

• Thanks. Not going to lie - 450+ link changes looks daunting (seems some of those are left from the previous undiscussed move). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 17:34, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

Edit on Walter Clayton Jr. page

Hi,

I'm a newer Wikipedia editor and want to know when I get things wrong. I realize why my first edit(s) on Walter Clayton Jr.'s page were rolled back since the trade wasn't official yet (good learning experience). I was wondering why you rolled back the second edit I made. The trade was already on the official NBA transactions page and I stated that in my edit description and cited it in the article. Again, just trying to learn, I know I'm probably in the wrong somewhere here. Versigot (talk) 03:30, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

@Versigot I'm sorry, I did not read your edit summary, so I apologize. Usually we wait for a team to announce the trade, but you were correct that the trade is also official when it gets posted on the official NBA transactions page. Natg 19 (talk) 03:34, 4 February 2026 (UTC)

Making it official

Regarding the ridings ..." the April 13 by-elections made it "official". It's all moot, but if it was about making it official, then that wouldn't happen until the MPs are sworn in. It will be days until the election results are validated. Let alone whatever other bureaucratic gobbledegook there is.
