Redirect to:
Disambiguation link notification for March 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lada Negrul, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Alexander Galich (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

One way to perhaps not waste time here
Yes, I know your user talk page is a redirect right now, but I saw your recent activity and your user page and something occurred to me which might be useful for you, and possibly for anyone who reads your user page.
I have been involved in the creation of an ungodly mess of WikiProjects over the years, and the one thing which has recently occurred to me, which I have been acting on, is that one of the most productive and useful things we might be able to do to help develop content and decide arguments is to find what the better recent, highly regarded, reference books which deal with the subject say, and more or less follow their communal lead, "averaging out" points of disagreement and contention. Certainly, if you wanted to, creating a few pages indicating what such sources cover, like the one at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Judaism/Encyclopedic articles, might help resolve at least a few of these discussions. I am still creating pages of that type for a lot of religion-based projects, and kind of intend to get on to at least a few others when I finish that, but God knows how long it will take before I get to that point, and I certainly think if others wanted to do the same sort of thing it wouldn't be likely to be too much of a waste of their time.
