Disambiguation link notification for January 14
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cheating Cheaters (play), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Strand Theatre (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.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}

As I say on the plot generator page - my interests have moved elsewhere - and I have said all I wish to add.
If you wish to develop the theatre pages here [1] feel free. Jackiespeel (talk) 17:57, 23 February 2016 (UTC)

Attribution
I undid your edit to Pascual Madoz, because the template {{EB1911}}
is not redundant. {{EB1911}}
takes the same parameters as {{Cite EB1911}}
but they are used for different purposes:
{{Cite EB1911}}
is a replacement for{{Cite encyclopedia}}
because it fills in some of the parameters such as year=1911 for the editor and adds the article to some hidden maintenance categorises.{{EB1911}}
and its various redirects such as{{1911}}
do all that{{Cite EB1911}}
does but also adds attribution text if the contents of some of all of the article are copied from EB1911. This fulfils the requirements of the plagiarism guideline.
In this case the Earwig tool shows clearly that most of the text in the Wikipedia article was copied from wikisource:1911 Encyclopædia Britannica/Madoz, Pascual

IP user you blocked was defended by another user
RL0919, the IP user you blocked, 69.118.146.138, was previously defended by Toddst1. Toddst1 had previously defended 69.118.146.138 at the WP:Administrator intervention against vandalism when AdamDeanHall previously reported the IP user, saying it's not vandalism which the IP edits are very much are at best. Several users, including AdamDeanHall, have been reverted his/her edits and this user keeps on doing it. I mean AdamDeanHall may be at times disruptive, but the IP user 69.118.146.138 is also being disruptive, maybe more so and Toddst1 is still defending that IP user. I thought I should bring this to you. BattleshipMan (talk) 17:41, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, I also saw Toddst1's comments on the IP's user talk page and on his own user talk page. Obviously I disagree with his assessment and agree with yours. The ongoing pattern of dubious edits, including in some cases what seem to be manufactured citations, while ignoring all talk page warnings and discussions, is at least disruptive, and most likely intentional vandalism. --RL0919 (talk) 19:31, 30 April 2016 (UTC)
