Wikipedia

Requested move 17 August 2015

The following is a closed discussion of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the proposal was move per request, as a more natural form of title than artificially tacking on a parenthetical disambiguator, but that nevertheless addresses the ambiguity of "administrators" alone.--Fuhghettaboutit (talk) 13:24, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Administrators (Wikipedia) → Wikipedia administrators – Per WP:NATURALDIS, "natural disambiguation" is preferable to "parenthetical disambiguation", which this article's title currently uses. I believe a more natural disambiguation of administrators on Wikipedia is simply "Wikipedia administrators". The article itself uses this phrase to begin the "Requests for adminship" section, and several of the references cited in the article [1][2][3][4] use this phrase in their titles. It makes sense for this to be the title of the article. Mz7 (talk) 05:22, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Support: this does sound better and follows NATURALDIS. — Bilorv_(talk)^(c)(e) 08:21, 17 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

~~Redirect to Nazis~~ - no just kidding, Support, sounds like a better and more obvious title. Ritchie333 ^(talk) ^(cont) 14:42, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Marie Curie edit

Hi, on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie_Curie, her spouse Pierre Curie is listed as being born in 1895 instead of 1859. I'm unable to correct the error as it's locked to prevent vandalism. Would someone else be able to edit it? Trainman666 (talk) 12:22, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I apologize if this is the wrong place. Couldn't find anywhere else. Trainman666 (talk) 12:22, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The correct place to post this question is on the article's talk page: Talk:Marie Curie. In this case, there is no error; the entry for spouse in the infobox lists the year they were married. Mind matrix 14:26, 19 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
