    Help desk query

    edit

    I've responded to your query on the help desk here. If you have more questions don't hesitate to ask. James086Talk | Email 18:48, 4 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

    Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page List of songs about cities has been reverted.
    Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://lyrics.wikia.com/Martha_And_The_Muffins:Saigon (matching the regex rule \bwikia\.com\b). If the external link you inserted or changed was to an external Wiki, then please note that these links should generally not be included (see 'links to avoid' #12).
    If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 21:01, 4 November 2009 (UTC)Reply

      Please do not use talk pages such as Talk:2010 Haiti earthquake for general discussion of the topic. They are for discussion related to improving the article. They are not to be used as a forum or chat room. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. See here for more information. Thank you. Pontificalibus (talk) 23:16, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

    Hey, I see the discussion was removed. I was going to respond with:
    Yes, the Bois Caiman meeting was a vodou ritual, but linking that to Satanism takes much more manuevering than linking it to Catholicism. Vodou has Catholic roots, as does Santeria, and other variations that are deemed much more acceptable. Sure, voduo evolved from pagan roots, the same can be said of Christianity. Its a literary theme, from ancient German, Washington Irving, O Brother, Where Art Thou?. Of course, to buy it, you have to believe in the Devil, and if so, it's no less odd than believing God had an agreement with the Jews. Grsz11 23:18, 15 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

    List of songs about London (L)

    edit

    The fact that it's a sublist is not a reason for removing the categories. If it exists as an independent title in articlespace, then it has to be directly filed in at least one category in its own right, as no page in articlespace can ever be left uncategorized.

      Welcome to Wikipedia! I am glad to see you are interested in discussing a topic. However, as a general rule, talk pages such as Operation Payback are for discussion related to improving the article, not general discussion about the topic. If you have specific questions about certain topics, consider visiting our reference desk and asking them there instead of on article talk pages. Thank you.

    Isthis edit somehow a comment on the discussion at Talk:List of music videos featuring barefoot females? If it is, I must tell you that it's not a good idea to edit just to make a point. Please see Wikipedia:Do not disrupt Wikipedia to illustrate a point.Sjö (talk) 05:49, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

    No. I was lead to the page by the link I got and thought I'd add to it. No disruption intended, nor I think caused; and no point to make in regards to the list I posted. If anything, it was more of a humourous self-deprecation. Also keep in mind that I put it in the talk page--where I understand greater latitude is permitted, rather than the article.Civic Cat (talk) 14:39, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
    I'll give the meta article a better reading, though in a cursory examination, I see nothing that indicates I made a disruption.Civic Cat (talk) 14:42, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
    OK. Maybe I'm just a bit touchy.Sjö (talk) 20:01, 16 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

    You're/Your

    edit

    Per the discussion here, "You're" is a contraction of "You are" (just like "He's/He is" or "We're/We are"). This isn't the same as "Your", which indicates possession. "You're user pages" means "You are user pages" which probably isn't what you meant. It's just unfortunate that "You're" and "Your" sound just the same: there wouldn't be the same confusion with, say, "He's user pages" and "His user pages".
