Deleting redirects



Hi. I noticed that you blanked a bunch of pages that were redirects to Traverse City ↗. That's not the way to delete redirects - you have to take them to WP:RFD ↗. Cheers, SunloungerFrog (talk) 12:53, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

:I was just removing them from the redirect page. I must've used the wrong terms. Oh well. Babelball (talk) 13:29, 10 March 2025 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

DISPLAYTITLE



I noticed that you tried to style your userpage's title using WP:DISPLAYTITLE ↗. Apart from the syntax error, please note that the namespace ("User:") is part of the page title, and cannot be left out. This should work:
: {{code|1={{((}}DISPLAYTITLE:<span style="background color:#BDB5D5;color:#ACE1AF">User:</span><span>'''''Babelball'''''</span>{{))}}|lang=wikitext}}
Happy editing! <span style="display:inline-block;position:relative;transform:rotate(-3deg);bottom:-.1em;">Paradoctor ↗</span> (talk ↗) 01:55, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

:Oh, that makes relative sense. Thanks! Babelball (talk) 10:13, 19 March 2025 (UTC)
