Disambiguation link notification for January 22

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1950–51 Soviet Cup (ice hockey), you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Spartak Moscow, Lokomotiv Kharkiv and Torpedo Gorky (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.

Your edit on Guy Olivier Faure

Hi Ironholds. Thanks for your edit, much appreciated. Can you please provide a link to en example of standard citation so I can follow that? Also If you could clarify your issue with the grammar, I don't understand what you are referring to? Thanks Olafgustavsson (talk) 21:37, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Sure! So, on the citations; you'll note (I think) a little button with a two pairs of curly braces ({{ }}) on your toolbar. If you click on that it contains the standardised citation templates for books, websites, journal articles, you name it. On the grammar front; mostly it's small things, albeit a lot of small things. So, for example: "a program on international negotiation processes that link together 5000 people involved in the domain" - link would be "links". It's a lot of things like that. I'm happy to go through this evening and try to tweak it, if that would help? Ironholds (talk) 21:46, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Ok thank you that was very helpful. I'll try and correct these things myself and hopefully I'll learn something from my mistakes. Thanks again and sorry about the undo, I misunderstood. Cheers! Olafgustavsson (talk) 22:38, 22 January 2014 (UTC)

Not sure how reviews work

I got a notification that you reviewed the Pollard, Washington article. How can I see this review (or any article's review, for that matter)? Thanks GPS Pilot (talk) 15:50, 25 January 2014 (UTC)

@GPS Pilot: it just means that a new page patroller checked the article. It's not a review as in a film review, it just means that something was examined and ticked off. Ironholds (talk) 01:11, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

KGB

I updated the above article, because I want it to become a featured article but user Wikipeterproject removed the vital information to the article, without explaining anything other then the sources are dubious (although I cited a book). I reinstate them back so that you can go over them and tell me if he was right or not. Keep in mind that this article was a featured one in 2006, but it had no mentioning of KGB operations in other countries other then the 1991 coup which was in Russia. I added info on operations in Afghanistan, Bangladesh, India and the Middle East. Can you copy edit them since the previous editor didn't even bothered to do it and just deleted all of it. Many thanks in advance. P.S. Ping me when you will be done.--Mishae (talk) 20:52, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

It needs a lot more footnotes, but the additions don't seem too poor. Have you considered actually talking to the other user? Ironholds (talk) 21:30, 26 January 2014 (UTC)

Well, I have dropped him a note, but his talkpage is busy, so I guess he is on lunch or something. Either way, thanks for approving my edit. You see, this month is a bit hack tick for me because I am trying to bring 2 articles to the featured status (that and Euromaidan), at the same time I am in a heated debate over the notability of Lisa Nakamichi who have won certain competitions as the primary source suggests but user @Michitaro: proposed deletion, on which I found two other musicians that used only external links and proded them. And last but not least, I have realized that Wikipedia news section lacks any info on this attack and decided to write about it as a part of Terrorism in Pakistan. Although whether or not its notable, I don't know.--Mishae (talk) 21:53, 26 January 2014 (UTC)
