Disambiguation link notification for February 23

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited The Case of the Late Pig ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page First person ↗ ([//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/The_Case_of_the_Late_Pig check to confirm] | [//dispenser.info.tm/~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/The_Case_of_the_Late_Pig?client=notify fix with Dab solver]). 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>

Signing edits to talk pages

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello and welcome to Wikipedia ↗. When you add content to talk pages ↗ and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion (but never when editing articles), please be sure to sign your posts ↗. There are two ways to do this. Either:
# Add four tilde ↗s ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment, or
# With the cursor positioned at the end of your comment, click on the signature button link=Wikipedia:How to sign your posts ↗ located above the edit window.
This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is necessary to allow other editors to easily see who wrote what and when.

Thank you.

Sorry for the "templating", as I see you started editing in 2005, but as you've only posted 5 edits to talk pages so far I thought this would be helpful {{smiley}} wbm1058 (talk) 12:36, 26 April 2018 (UTC)

Adieu (short story) ↗ moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Adieu (short story) ↗, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable ↗, independent sources ↗. <small>(? ↗)</small> Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability ↗ is of central importance ↗ on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace ↗ (with a prefix of "<code>Draft:</code>" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline ↗ and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

A small request

Greetings,

Lately you seem to have made some minor edits in article Women in the Ottoman Empire ↗. Presently I am working on Draft:Avret Esir Pazarları ↗ (women slave trade and markets in Ottoman times) which still has scope for more content. Since you seem to be a good reader and by any chance if you have any reading on the subject and may be you can add some inputs etc. to the article, if you find topic interested in.

Thanks and regards
