Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Naming (parliamentary procedure), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sergio Marchi (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Just a note

Regarding this thread, that one of the expectations of Teahouse hosts is not to over link without providing actual substantive explanation. I know sometimes it gets tiring answering the same questions that often boils down to "how do I exploit Wikipedia", but the Teahouse does get an average of about a thousand page view per day. So there are more people reading though the answers than just those asking, and linking someone to ten thousand or so words worth of policy with no explanation isn't really all that helpful to a new user.

A barnstar for you!

Canada

I've noticed that you are very active over on the Canada talk page. What are your thoughts on adding the "Great Seal of Canada" to the Canada infobox (or the royal standard for that matter)? The infobox at the moment looks a bit naked without a seal, which also gives the misleading impression Canada doesn't have one (like Turkey). – Illegitimate Barrister (talkcontribs), 09:46, 17 February 2018 (UTC)

I think B1 looks pretty good, but I think it could be resized a bit to make it a bit more vertically even with the flag, assuming that wouldn't compromise its details too much. Also, thanks for the barnstar! Cryptic Canadian 23:38, 17 February 2018 (UTC)
You're welcome. Personally, I think A1 looks best. – Illegitimate Barrister (talkcontribs), 15:08, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
