Disambiguation link notification for March 19



Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Aurelio Martínez ↗, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Martínez ↗ and Suazo ↗. 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>

Vital article Level 4 People reorganization



Hello there! I would like to thank you for reorganizing the Level 4 People list. I admittedly still have some mixed feelings about changing it from alphabetically to chronologically, but consensus seems to be in favor of it. I just want to let you know though, I do see some mistakes here and there. Very minor, still leagues better than the other guy, but still I want you to about these sections, specifically about the people in these positions:
#Association football (10-12)
#Modern mathematicians (11-12)
#Medicine (1-4)
#Chemistry (6-7)
#Modern physicists (You forgot to sort Enrico Fermi ↗. Can you also move Henry Cavendish ↗ to the early modern list? We define that era as between 1500 to 1800. That doesn't mean move everyone born in that period to that section, but this guy was born in 1732.)
#French revolutionaries (2-3)
Thank you. Bluevestman (talk) 08:03, 1 June 2025 (UTC)

:Oh, thanks for the reminder. Mistakes can happen along the way so thanks for the proofreading! Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 09:25, 1 June 2025 (UTC)
::You're welcome. Speaking of mistakes, your note for Giordano Bruno ↗ is causing Francis Bacon ↗ to be invisible. Bluevestman (talk) 08:50, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
:::Thanks for the reminder. I've gone back and fixed it. Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 09:01, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
:::Side note, if you want to you could help out by appending birth year notes to the rest of the list. I've got 507 political leaders, 51 military leaders/theorists, 53 revolutionaries, 254 scientists, and 88 sports figures to go. Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 09:05, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
::::Unfortunately, I do not have the number of edits to touch that page. Off topic, but you do agree that the entire list should be based on DOBs, right? I am asking that because the other person reorganizing with you, Lophotrochozoa, decided not to do with the popular musicians, specifically the general pop, R&B, and rock sections, instead basing off "their debut". They gave this as an explanation, but personally I think they just don't want to do the mental work sorting out the bands. Bluevestman (talk) 10:36, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
:::::Personally I see merit in doing that instead if only because it can create ambiguity in who is the backbone of a band, but I'd take your position over theirs and just sort by the birth date of either the eldest member, or the most prominent member (usually the lead singer). Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 16:37, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
::::::My thing is besides consistency is that I personally don't think it's that hard to sort the Level 4 bands. All of them have pretty clear line-ups that we can use, and of them only two (The Doors ↗ and The Rolling Stones ↗) have the issue of the eldest member (Ray Manzarek ↗ (1939) and Bill Wyman ↗ (1936)) being significantly older than the most prominent member(s) (Jim Morrison ↗ and Mick Jagger ↗/Keith Richards ↗ (all 1943)). Bluevestman (talk) 17:30, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
:::::::I've decided to take a detour to the music section. While it may be more advisable to specifically split the rock bands off I've done an attempt to arrange the section by birth year, aggregated by the year of debut so that it doesn't appear like a continuity snarl. Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 18:46, 4 June 2025 (UTC)
::::::::Thank you so much for doing this. This was going to be bugging me all day. One last thing: Madonna ↗ (Aug 16) was born before Michael Jackson ↗ (Aug 29). User:Lophotrochozoa, I am sorry for having a fit over this. Bluevestman (talk) 21:23, 4 June 2025 (UTC)

Could you please do your reorganization of the list in separate edits from adding birth years? Doing both in the same edits makes the page history hard to read ↗. Lophotrochozoa (talk) 15:19, 5 June 2025 (UTC)

:I will keep that in mind for future edits. However, we may already have completed the entire task by the time I saw this message - I was busy doing final adjustments in the meantime. Frank<sub>(has Demo<span style="color: red">'''C'''</span>racy ↗ Depriva<span style="color: red">'''T'''</span>ion)</sub> 16:53, 5 June 2025 (UTC)
:@Lophotrochozoa speaking of the edits though, do you think categorizing the actors by nationality in addition to birth year is a good idea? Some of the later sections do see that additional nation/continent divide. Even the directors are.

AFD closure


Hello, DemocracyDeprivationDisorder,

I have reverted your closure of Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Helioplex ↗ because you handled it incorrectly and it was an inappropriate NAC closure ↗ according to our guidelines at Wikipedia:Non-admin closure ↗. It was not an obvious "Keep" as no arguments were arguing for that outcome so that was effectively your opinion which is what we call a "supervote". Please review our policy on NACs and follow it strictly. I haven't seen you involved in AFDs as a participant and that is a minimum requirement to be performing discussion closures. Please return to AFDs and do some work as a discussion participant before you attempt to close discussions. If you have questions about this, please bring them to the Teahouse ↗. Thank you. <span style="font-family:Papyrus; color:#800080;">'''''L'''''iz</span> <sup style="font-family: Times New Roman; color: #006400;">'''''Read!''''' ↗ '''''Talk!'''''</sup> 20:06, 18 September 2025 (UTC)

:I do not have questions, but I would like to clarify and apologize. The closure was not intended as a "Keep", but rather that the nomination itself was invalid due to it being LLM-generated, and per Wikipedia guidelines should be disregarded from the consensus, but regretfully I have not corrected the closure to being an invalid discussion. I have separately re-nominated the article immediately after the closure, disregarding the original.
