Thie link tomaiden voyage in theList of Liberty ships (A–F) is correct. I'm not sure exactly what has happened, but it appears that a perfectly valid article has been turned into a disambiguation page. Please take this off you list of links to flag up.Mjroots (talk)06:53, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

First, what list are you talking about? As far as I can tell,List of Liberty ships (A–F) doesnot currently contain any links to disambiguation pages.

Second, I've looked at the history ofmaiden voyage; apparently, over five years ago, it was a redirect toList of maiden voyages, but that list subsequently wasdeleted by consensus. Since then, this title has strictly been used for a disambiguation page (or a redirect to one). If you think that there should be a full article with that title (which I wouldn't agree with, see next point), the correct place to raise it would be on the article talk page, not by complaining about appropriate correction of links pointing to disambiguation pages.

Third, a link tomaiden voyage in the sense it would be used inList of Liberty ships (A–F) would appear to run afoul ofWP:OVERLINK andWP:NOTDICT. We don't create encyclopedia articles just to state the definition of a common word or phrase. --R'n'B (call me Russ)15:18, 24 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm puzzled why the bot said it found me linking to a disambiguation page. Here is the line it flagged. I don't see a disambiguation page anywhere: "He sometimes takes on comedic parts, for example playing a father who calls in an exorcist priest when his son wants to play rock music instead of studying inLucio Corsi's hit music video 'Volevo essere un duro.'^[1]"Can someone help me understand what the bot was flagging?

• @Oh-Fortuna!: Hello andwelcome to Wikipedia. When you add content totalk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure tosign your posts. There are two ways to do this. Either:

1. Add fourtildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
2. With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button located above the edit window.

This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.

• As for your question, the text you pasted into your message above isnot identical to the text you added to the pageMassimo Ceccherini. Specifically, when you edited that article, you wrote [[Il Giorno]], not [[Il Giorno (newspaper)|Il Giorno]]. That's why the bot flagged the edit. --R'n'B (call me Russ)13:31, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@R'n'B That's odd, I cut and pasted what I put in from the page. I did not change it, I just cut and pasted the text. I had to use the markup language because it would not let me cut and paste in visual editing. I wonder why this happened.Oh-Fortuna! (talk)13:36, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'll try to fix it when I'm back in the office. and I'm not a newbie, but I forgot to sign my post. Sorry. I'm grateful for your response.Oh-Fortuna! (talk)13:37, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Think I got it now, thank you again, someone else fixed it.Oh-Fortuna! (talk)18:07, 27 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

The citation template I have used for years to site articles in medical journals in PubMed such as I used forIFI44L which I recently published has not been working all day. When I click on Wikit (going tohttps://citation-template-filling.toolforge.org/cgi-bin/index.cgi?ddb=&type=pubmed_id&id=25052386&add_param_space=1&add_ref_tag=1&full_journal_title=1) I get an error message "Can't call method "findnodes" on an undefined value at /data/project/citation-template-filling/perl/ActivePerl-5.26/site/lib/WWW/Search/PubMedLite.pm line 117". Can you please help me correct this? Thank you. (talk) 22:41, 1 March February 2025 (UTC).....Yesterday afternoon, the citation template started working.(talk) 4:41, 3 March February 2025 (UTC)

I appreciate this bot so much. Thanks to whoever made it. Helps make articles I edit better!SamuelNelsonGISP (talk)16:13, 19 October 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that the wording of the bot message for disambiguation notifications can be inaccurate. It states that "you added a link pointing to X", even in cases where the article was simply reverted to an older version that contained the link. In that case, while it was my edit, it wasn't really "me" adding it, and insinuating that can be patronizing and make the bot seem faulty. I would suggest changing to the more passive wording of "a link was added pointing to X", which seems to be all that the bot can actually detect, as it doesn't have the capability to compare to past history and say things like "an older link was restored that is now incorrect".ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ)08:30, 1 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
