Disambiguation link notification for April 21

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Walker Hancock ↗, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Episcopal Church ↗. 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) 19:56, 21 April 2025 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hi, and thank you for your contributions ↗ to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by cutting its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into :Giuseppe Perovani ↗. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move ↗", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history ↗, which is legally required for attribution ↗. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be ''moved'' to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits ↗, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab ↗ at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu ↗ for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect ↗ from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves ↗ to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge ↗. Thank you.

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Please do not use styles that are nonstandard, unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles, as you did in :Gulph Mills, Pennsylvania ↗. There is a Manual of Style ↗, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. '''''Please stop adding the photo of the rock to this article. It doesn't fit, and disrupts the layout, per MOS:IMAGES ↗. Please seek a consensus on the article talk page.''''' Magnolia677 (talk) 15:24, 2 December 2025 (UTC)

25px|alt=Information icon ↗ Hello, I'm Kvinnen. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, :Stephen Carlton Clark ↗, but you didn't provide a reliable source ↗. On Wikipedia, it's important that article content be verifiable ↗. If you'd like to resubmit your change with a citation ↗, your edit is archived in the page history ↗. If you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. ''There is no way conclude that what you mentioned was the reason for Clark's marriage. You are going to need a source to confirm that claim.''  <small><sub>''signed'', </sub></small>Kvinnen (talk ↗) 19:15, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

::{{ping|Kvinnen}} The source is Weber's biography of the Clark family, but it's been 9 years since I read it, and who knows where my copy is. The article works without Stephen's attempt to block Sterling's stepdaughter from becoming a beneficiary. Sterling withdrew his quarter of the Trust's assets, so the stepdaughter probably inherited more. A really nasty move by Stephen against his brother though.
