Disambiguation link notification for August 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Gachupín ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hidalgo ↗. 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>

It's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 14:38, 2 August 2022 (UTC)

I have sent you a note about a page you reviewed

Hello, Maltice

Thank you for creating Gachupín ↗.

User:Scope creep, while examining this page as a part of our page curation process ↗, had the following comments:

{{Bq|1=Hi Maltice, I wonder if you could add more references to the article. A couple of sections are unsourced. Thanks.}}

To reply, leave a comment here and begin it with {{code|<nowiki>{{Re|</nowiki>Scope creep<nowiki>}}</nowiki>}}. Please remember to sign your reply with {{code|<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>}} .

:{{Re|Scope creep}}
:Hi Scope creep,
:Sorry for being so slow about that, I was putting off adding all the sources because some of them were broken links and I didn't want to redo someone else's research from scratch. But now the English page has every source the original Spanish had, and all the links work. The remaining unsourced statements do not have a source in the original either. I'd like to work on finding them for a few of the claims
:Maltice (talk) 06:13, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
::Hi {{ping|Maltice}} Thats all par for the course. Its what we do on Wikipedia. It would be nice if you could expand the references to full cites. The wee tutorial WP:REFB ↗ shows you how to do it. Full size references have a better chance of surviving. Bare urls don't survive research as there is not enough info there identify where they are coming from. Things like Ref 5, which may be similar to "ibid" are not allowed on the English Wikipedia. I don't know what it means really. Hope that helps.

A bit of confusion

Hey, I saw some of your reverts over at Trade name ↗ and there seems to be a bit of confusion. Some of the edits you reverted were removing gibberish text that was added as vandalism. Admittedly I've made similar mistakes a few times. TornadoLGS (talk) 05:23, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

: Hi TornadoLGS, I thought that the vandalism revert option was appropriate in this case because the same gibberish edit had happened five times. I'm not really familiar with the policy on that revert option, I'll try to be less trigger-happy with it if that wasn't appropriate Maltice (talk) 18:34, 5 January 2026 (UTC)

:: I now see what I've done here. Very sorry about that Maltice (talk) 22:18, 5 January 2026 (UTC)
