I looked at many telecom operators and most of them were codedTelecommunications.
Since the pointers resolve to the same Industry definition, I now realize there is no reason to make these changes.
Once again, thanks for your patience with me.

F800GS is a motorcycle. F80GS is not.— Precedingunsigned comment added by70.77.43.246 (talk)08:40, 9 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Biker Biker,
my addition to motor scooter article was copied from one of my article (SYM DD50). Please let me know if you disagree with the following analysis.
" Until mid-1990s, scooters generally referred to classic Vespa styled scooter with 4 speed manual-transmission, a relatively powerful 2 stroke engine, and foot operated rear brake. From mid 1990s, the concept of ‘twist and go’ – referring to CVT transmission (with no clutch or transmission) scooter began to gain popularity. As cities got congested, using a small scooter to commute within city got popular with people who are otherwise not interested in motorcycling thus the complexities that come with a manual transmission. Since then, the popularity of twist and go scooters increased. Now (2013) manual scooters like Vespa T5 are referred to as ‘classic scooters’ and very few manufactures exist. For example, Piaggio currently makes only one model of manual transmission scooter, which is Vespa PX150. Back in 1980s, almost all the scooters from Piaggio were manual transmission with left hand operated clutch-twist gear.Currently, ‘Scooter’ almost universally refers to a small motor scooter with a 50cc to 250cc engine, twist-and-go transmission, 2 or 4 stroke engine, ease of operation, and lesser license/registration requirements than motorcycles. While maxi-scooters can range from 250cc to exotic 850cc engine displacement range, they represent a minute fraction of total scooters in use around the world."
Thanks,
Samihasib

You reverted an entire section on thehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stella_%28scooter%29 full of useful information on differences between the Stella and its P-Series sibling, something that comes up incessantly all over the internet for people looking for information on these bikes, just because you have a quibble over a reliable source?

I am proposing leaving all your accounts unblocked, on the condition that you disclose all your accounts on all the userpages. This is largely because in the past you have used multiple accounts inappropriately, as mentioned atWikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Biker Biker. Is this a condition that you can accept? --Rschen775404:24, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on theSuggestBot study page.
IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, asdescribed in this explanation.
Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:
The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians.

The Rebels MC in Red Deer , Alta was not disbanded within the first year they were together like it said in the Wikipedia article. They were together from late 1967 to about late 1971 to early 1972 and during that time a fellow named Walter 245@@@@ came down from Edmonton to party with the Red Deer chapter and asked to open a charter membership in Edmonton and eventually he was allowed to open the Edmonton chapter. The reason I know this to be FACT is because I AM one of the founding members of the original REBELS MC in Red Deer, Alta. back in the late 60's.— Precedingunsigned comment added by24.66.225.10 (talk)23:58, 21 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Biker Biker, I apologize for the inappropriate external link to SOTI's website on theMobile Device Management (MDM) Wiki page- I was hoping to include SOTI in the listing of major vendors.
Would it be acceptable to add SOTI to the list without linking to their external site?
I am currently trying to revive their company Wiki page, which I would ideally like to link to. Perhaps you could assist me with this as well, as it has proven quite challenging.
Please let me know- thanks in advance, I appreciate your help!

Hey Biker Biker
I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).
So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy theVisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.
What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.
The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a smallJSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guidehere, along with alist of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on theFeedback page.

Hi! I am Claire Leavey, and I've reverted your removal of mine and Dave Minton's names from the Classic Bike Guide entry. Look at any issue of CBG from around 1992 to 1996 and you will see both our names on the masthead as regular contributors. I became editor 1993. Prior to that, Rebekkah Smith co-edited British Bike with Tim Holmes, but she was not sole editor - hence I was the first. Shortly after me, Karen Tait became editor of Back Street Heroes. She was the second. I also edited the UK title Motorcycle Classics (there is a current, unrelated US mag with that title), but it was a short-lived magazine and so has no Wiki entry. I hope that clears matters up for you. Please don't revert my edits again.— Precedingunsigned comment added byRetroMetroCo (talk •contribs)11:19, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was reviewing the K1200GT webpage and saw that you had undone edit 437627900 which corrected the horsepower and torque of the K1300GT.That edit was actually correct. I own a K1300GT, and I have three separate articles (directly from BMW) that indicate the correct horsepower is 160 bhp (118 kW) and 99 lb•ft (135 N•m)What appears to have happened is that the original citation for the increased horsepower and torque was for the K1300S, released at the same time by BMW. They do not share similar power stats.
I would correct the page myself, but the syntax on this editing language is way beyond me.
