Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Manitoba First, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Steven Fletcher (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Reassessments

Hey Username6892! Just so you're aware there is an agreement among USRD editors that if you improve an article up to the next class, you can reassess it yourself up to C-Class. Re-assessing to B-Class should have another set of eyes on it. Don't worry if the article isn't that long or if there is a stub template at the bottom. If there are two of the Big 3 sections, you can bump it to Start-Class. –Fredddie™ 00:15, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

The article Ontario Highway 418 you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Ontario Highway 418 for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

Some highway article thoughts

I'm not in favor of adding that fancy AADT table to articles in general. I think it's filler and useless. Yes, I add AADT information to the prose of an article to give some context and answer the question "who?" as in "who uses the highway?". I find adding the table to article with 1948 data to be more problematic because then I have to ask "why is 1948 significant?" or "why was that year specifically picked?" When the answer is "because we have a source for that year and not others", then the table is really useless.

You've also added a lot of map citations, but you're using the wrong template. Instead of {{cite web}}, you should be using {{cite map}} and including the scale (or |scale=Scale not given as appropriate). You shouldn't be using |website=Wisconsin Historical Society because the WHS is a republisher, not the original publisher. Putting it in the context as you have implies that they published the original maps, but they didn't. Instead, use |via=Wisconsin Historical Society so that we properly indicate that these maps are being made available online via the WHS, but that they didn't publish them.

KMLs

Looks good, but try to use a contrasting color next time. Normally we use red, or green on a toll road. Imzadi 1979 → 21:11, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

Hi, G5 speedy deletions only apply to articles created by a sockpuppet after the sockmaster has been blocked, as per WP:CSD, regards Atlantic306 (talk) 17:47, 26 April 2020 (UTC)

My Project Templates

Hi,

Please don't change the templates or any of the content on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Spoken_Wikipedia please. I am working on rebuilding the entire project step by step. With that said, I was going to be changing the titles, but I have to go through other steps to do it so as to not break a live project. This is why there is a disclaimer on every page. However, thank you for making that change! Thanks, Galendalia Talk to me CVU Graduate 19:04, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
