Disambiguation link notification for December 2

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Vanessa Baden, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Georgia. 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.

Redirects

May I ask why you keep ignoring WP:NOTBROKEN and MOS:NOPIPE (the latter of which is a guideline and part of the Manual of Style) in the "Pilot (Body of Proof)" article? - JuneGloom07 Talk 00:55, 17 August 2015 (UTC)

I see that you continue to ignore WP:NOTBROKEN, also WP:SPECIFICLINK; therefore, Information icon Welcome to Misplaced Pages, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 11:41, 19 February 2017 (UTC)

Information icon Please do not use styles that are unusual, inappropriate or difficult to understand in articles. There is a Manual of Style, and edits should not deliberately go against it without special reason. Thank you. —Granger (talk · contribs) 13:20, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

No reason to bypass the redirects

Hello,
I have noticed this modification. This is not compliant with several guidelines, see WP:NOTBROKEN and WP:SPECIFICLINK. They explain that redirects should be kept. In your modification, the previous link ] was better than ] because it was more precise. Moreover, if ] becomes an article about the Emmy ceremonies, the previous link would be OK whereas your new link would have to be corrected.
Several people have already mentioned redirects in your talk page. These guidelines reflect consensus. Do you intent to go to Misplaced Pages talk:Redirect to change the guidelines?
