Thanks for cleaning up P1 so speedily

I wanted to you thank you for nicely organizing the disambig page P1 so quickly after I stuck the cleanup tag on it - it is certainly much easier to navigate now! Back when I was really active doing disambiguation work, Category:Disambiguation_pages_in_need_of_cleanup had hundreds of pages... I just checked it out, and the idea that 10 pages is a backlog is funny to me remembering the past, but really speaks to how well things are being taken care of. So, thanks! -- Natalya 19:43, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your kind words Nataly! I have a lot of fun with disambiguation pages. There were over 40 on Category:Disambiguation_pages_in_need_of_cleanup when I first found it, and I started going through them. I figured the best way to learn is to get in there and do it. I have stepped on a few toes along the way, but I learn quickly from my mistakes. I think it is one of my favorite things to deal with on Wikipedia. Best Regards, JMax (Okay, tell me. What'd I do this time?) 21:12, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You are most welcome. Disambiguation pages are pretty fun - I hope you continue to enjoy your work with them! -- Natalya

Well, if I knew what else is wrong, I would have fixed it myself :) My main concern is with using the redirects, which is why I wanted someone experienced with dab cleanups to look at that page. Here you can find the discussion that lead to me adding a cleanup tag; please let me know if anything there is unclear.

Also, on an unrelated note, I re-instated the nav template which you removed. While you are correct to have removed it on the MOS grounds, the template on this dab page is not a permanent fixture—once all of its entries are properly converted into set indices, the problem will resolve itself.

I hope this leaves us with no hard feelings towards one another. I do, incidentally, appreciate your attempt to do a cleanup, and you have caught the most obvious problems with that page. Cheers,—Ëzhiki (Igels Hérissonovich Ïzhakoff-Amursky) • (yo?); April 27, 2011; 18:48 (UTC)
