Hi Mike, are you running a bot? Is this [[Special:Diff/1042875111/1055094433]] a bug? Your edit summary says "Removing Commons category link that does not match this article (commons:Category:Scanning electron microscope) (Commons category belongs at Scanning_electron_microscope)". But "[[Scanning electron microscope]]" '''=''' "[[Scanning_electron_microscope|Scanning<span style="color:red; font-weight:bold;">_</span>electron<span style="color:red; font-weight:bold;">_</span>microscope]]".

:{{ping|Ponor}} It's a semi-automated script. Sorry about that edit, I'm not too sure what happened, but I meant to remove the other Commons category link, which I've now done - the article only needs one Commons category link, there's the category tree at Commons if you want to see more. Thanks. [[User:Mike Peel|Mike Peel]] ([[User talk:Mike Peel#top|talk]]) 09:21, 14 November 2021 (UTC) |

Warrenton Junction Raid
Hello Mike Peel - I'm sure your intentions were good, but why remove 1st West Virginia Cavalry Regiment from the Wikimedia commons link at the bottom of Warrenton Junction Raid? They were the ones Mosby attacked. TwoScars (talk) 21:50, 6 November 2021 (UTC)
- @TwoScars: Looking again, the other two links also shouldn't have been in the article, so I've removed them. If there's enough media, then the best approach would be to create commons:Category:Warrenton Junction Raid to directly match the article, rather than including links to categories that are only tangential to the article topic. Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 12:34, 7 November 2021 (UTC)

DYK for Marguerite Dunlap
On 12 November 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Marguerite Dunlap, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Marguerite Dunlap sang in the first radio broadcast of WEAF in New York? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Marguerite Dunlap. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Marguerite Dunlap), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Wtf, Mike? This is obviously wrong, & I've reverted. Please stop doing these. Johnbod (talk) 23:41, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- and the Japanese, and Zafarnama (Yazdi biography). Please actually look at the articles before fiddling with the Commons cats. Johnbod (talk) 23:46, 12 November 2021 (UTC)
- @Johnbod: Thanks for the feedback. I've changed the links on Wikidata (so Commons now links back to the right items). I've also changed the Commons category links in Category:Arts in Japan, Category:Japanese art, Category:Indian art and Category:Arts in India (which it seems is where the confusion came from) - please could you check that these are now right? For the third one, I've created commons:Category:Garrett Zafarnama, which solves the problem (I didn't realise that Garrett Zafarnama was only about a specific version). Hope that's all looking OK now? Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 11:26, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
- Mike has been doing this across all sort of articles for a while. I am not sure that it is right or helpful. The guidance is that the link should be relevant, it doesn't have to be exact. Philafrenzy (talk) 00:12, 14 November 2021 (UTC)

Segne du, Maria
Not sure why a category can't "belong" to two articles. Of the six present items in c:Category:Cordula Wöhler, the last 2 are about her poem. I thought an extra category for it was a bit too much, no? --Gerda Arendt (talk) 21:03, 13 November 2021 (UTC)
Scanning electron microscope
Hi Mike, are you running a bot? Is this Special:Diff/1042875111/1055094433 a bug? Your edit summary says "Removing Commons category link that does not match this article (commons:Category:Scanning electron microscope) (Commons category belongs at Scanning_electron_microscope)". But "Scanning electron microscope" = "Scanning_electron_microscope". Ponor (talk) 23:12, 13 November 2021 (UTC)

Commons cat removals
What's the benefit of this, this, this...? How does it improve the page for enwiki readers to not have those highly relevant and logical, but not 100% identical links? Such removal seems bot-like, not really thought out. Your edit summary, "commons category X belongs at article X" doesn't help; as there is no reason that two enwiki pages can't point to the same commons category. is not necessarily a problem. Some of your edits don't make any sense at all, and seem to indicate that you are using an unsupervised script: "Sunbeam S7 and S8 Removing Commons category link that does not match this article (commons:Category:Sunbeam S7) (Commons category belongs at Sunbeam_S7_and_S8)". The place where you claim this commons cat belongs, is the place you removed it from... How so? Well, the (faulty) "logic" is that Commons category Sunbeam S7 should only be coupled with enwiki article Sunbeam S7. Too bad for you that that article is a redirect to Sunbeam S7 and S8, where you just removed the link from. Please stop this script, and revert your changes, and then only reinsert them where they are truly wrong, not simply a minor mismatch that someone deliberately inserted, and you blindly removed.
