Link rot
I have returned temporarily to repair/remove "dead" links in a number of articles. In the two years since I was last here, the links have degraded over time and are in need of maintenance. Meg Ireland 04:20, 14 July 2013 (UTC)
Welcome back
Good to see your name on the recent changes page. Hope you'll participate in the ongoing special election process. And share the knowledge you've gained since 2011.
As you can see, we're still breathing. We shan't give up. Anthony.Sebastian 03:15, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
- I'll second that welcome back. Good to see you again. Russell D. Jones 13:42, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
- Yes, nice to see you catching those typos. Ro Thorpe 14:39, 16 July 2013 (UTC)
- Thank you. Meg Ireland 10:56, 27 July 2013 (UTC)
Question
I think what you do is very helpful. However, I cannot see why, under Mervyn Peake, you have removed the entire list of works. Is there some technical reason? --Martin Wyatt 18:09, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
- The list was moved to /Bibliography but I've moved that to /Works. John Stephenson 19:40, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
- Hello Martin, yes I filed it under Bibliography but Works would have been better. Meg Ireland 23:48, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
Regarding Matter (disambiguation)
Meg: If we want a reader to reach Matter (chemistry), which is written from a chemist's perspective, instead of the article Matter, which is written from a physicist's perspective, or to have a choice of either or both, the disambiguation page, Matter (disambiguation), cannot suffice, as Matter does not redirect to Matter (disambiguation). So, if a reader types the word, Matter, in the Go-to-page search box, he or she will reach the article Matter written from a physicist's perspective, and not have a choice between that article and the article, Matter (chemistry).
I do not personally know how to solve that problem. Do you have any ideas? I might choose to change the title of the article, Matter, to something like, Matter (fundamentals), Then create a redirect article, Matter, That redirects to Matter (disambiguation). Perhaps you have a simpler solution. Anthony.Sebastian 20:54, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
