Links to disambiguation pages in hatnotes

Hi. When linking to disambiguation pages in hatnotes, such as you did here ↗, could you in the future adhere to WP:INTDAB ↗, our policy for such intentional links to disambiguation pages? In other works, like this ↗. Thanks in advance! Lennart97 (talk) 16:12, 5 June 2021 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from one or more pages into another page. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing ↗ does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary ↗ at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking ↗ to the copied page, e.g., <code>copied content from <nowiki>page name ↗</nowiki>; see that page's history for attribution</code>. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{tl|copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia ↗.

Formation dates

Hi again! Just to note that per the JMA, Nida developed before Mirinae. We use the JMA dates as they are the RSMC for the basin. Thanks. <span style="color:blue; font-family:Palatino Linotype">''Typhoon2013''</span> (talk) 11:03, 5 August 2021 (UTC)
:Thanks for your reply! I haven't seen that Chinese version yet of the article, but that is odd. You can even clearly look at the JMA weather maps and rewind back to the 3rd which shows their formation. Plus, I have no idea how they got the formation dates of Mirinae on 31/7 and Nida on 1/8. <span style="color:blue; font-family:Palatino Linotype">''Typhoon2013''</span> (talk) 11:17, 5 August 2021 (UTC)

::Ah thanks for your reply back. Well no, the NRL (or the JTWC) is not the RSMC of this basin, therefore we do not follow those dates.

Disambiguation link notification for November 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited 2021–22 Derby County F.C. season ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Fabio Carvalho ↗. Such links are usually incorrect ↗, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. <small>(Read the FAQ{{*}} Join us at the DPL WikiProject ↗.)</small>

WikiProject Weather: Map Dot & Template/Infobox Colors

Dear project member,
This message is being sent out to encourage new ideas and feedback on those proposed in regard to the colors debate for WikiProject Weather. For those who are unaware of what's been happening over the last year, I will give a brief summary. We have been discussing proposed changes to the colors of the dots on tropical cyclone maps and templates and infoboxes across the entire weather project in order to solve issues related to the limited contrast between colors for both normal vision as well as the various types of color blindness (MOS:ACCESS ↗). We had partially implemented a proposal earlier this year, however, it was objected to by a number of people and additional issues were presented that made it evident this wasn't the optimal solution. We tried to come up with other solutions to address the issues related to color contrast, however, none of them gained traction and no consensus was generated.

We need your help and I encourage you to propose your own scale and give feedback on those already listed. Keep in mind that we are '''NOT''' making a decision on any individual proposal at this time. We are simply allowing people to make proposals and cultivate them given feedback from other project members. Please visit our project page ↗ for additional details. The proposal phase will close no later than December 31st at 23:59 UTC. <span style="white-space:nowrap;text-shadow:#009200 0.3em 0.4em 1.0em,#009200 -0.2em -0.2em 1.0em;color:#009200"><b>Noah</b></span><sup><span style="color:#ff0000"><b>Talk</b></span></sup> 03:42, 21 November 2022 (UTC)

Introduction to contentious topics

{{ivmbox | image = Commons-emblem-notice.svg |imagesize=50px | bg = #E5F8FF | text = You have recently edited a page related to '''the Arab–Israeli conflict ↗''', a topic designated as '''contentious ↗'''. This is a brief introduction to contentious topics and <em>does <strong>not</strong> imply that there are any issues with your editing</em>.

A special set of rules applies to certain topic areas, which are referred to as ''contentious topics''. These are specially designated topics that tend to attract more persistent disruptive editing than the rest of the project and have been designated as contentious topics by the Arbitration Committee. When editing a contentious topic, Wikipedia’s norms and policies are more strictly enforced, and Wikipedia administrators have special powers in order to reduce disruption to the project.

Within contentious topics, editors should edit <strong>carefully</strong> and <strong>constructively</strong>, refrain from disrupting the encyclopedia, and:

adhere to the purposes of Wikipedia;

comply with all applicable policies and guidelines;

follow editorial and behavioural best practice;

comply with any page restrictions in force within the area of conflict; and

refrain from gaming the system.

<p>Additionally, you must be logged-in, have 500 edits and an account age of 30 days ↗, and are not allowed to make more than 1 revert within 24 hours on a page within this topic.</p><p>Editors are advised to err on the side of caution if unsure whether making a particular edit is consistent with these expectations. If you have any questions about contentious topics ''procedures'' you may ask them at the arbitration clerks' noticeboard ↗ or you may learn more about this contentious topic here ↗. You may also choose to note which contentious topics you know about by using the {{tl|Ctopics/aware}} template. </p>}}
