Hi. When you recently edited Maria Perrusi, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Swimming (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.
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot’s recommendations. Participation in the study is voluntary.

We have added information about the quality of the suggested articles using a Low/Medium/High scale which goes from Low to High .
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work.

Thanks to the contributions of our many members and supporters, WP:YORKS has become a leading local British WikiProject in terms of the total number of articles supported (up from 9,730 last month to 9,769 on April 28th). In the area of GAs WP:YORKS at 73 is just ahead of WP:GM who have 68. WP:GM has the lead in FAs at 56 out of a total number of 2,983 articles.
Currently we have thirty one Yorkshire featured articles:
The number has been kept deliberately low to give us a fighting chance of improving them to at least GA status, also so we can concentrate our efforts on these first.
Elections
May is the month for local elections to take place in many of our town and cities. This will create a lot of work in updating all of the place articles that include council make-up details. In addition each of the elections will require a new article creating to cover details of the election and the results in each of the wards. A number of elections from the last round of elections have not yet been created and it would be good if the missing election articles could be created so that we have a full set of recent elections for Yorkshire.
At the same time as the local council elections a number of cities in the area are holding a referendum on elected mayors. The main article will need to be updated with the results from each of the cities involved and any background that may be relevant to that article. Individual articles covering the referendum in each of the cities involved would also be useful to create while the details and references are to hand in the local press.
WikiProject Yorkshire Collaboration of the Month Project
The May 2012 articles selected below are an editors choice as there were no suggestions on the project talk page.
The project is subscribed to a clean-up listing which lists articles tagged with various clean-up tags that need attention. The listing is refreshed by a bot on a regular basis.
Monitoring is essential Use the watchlist to keep an eye on changes to the project's articles so that vandalism and spamming can be removed as quickly as possible.
Moves Please be careful when performing articles moves and ensure that you also move all the talk sub-pages and update any image fair use rational. Otherwise the archives, to-do lists, assessment comments and GA reviews get lost and the image may be deleted as it has an incorrect FUR.

Hi there! I thought you might be interested in WikiProject Wikify's June Wikification Backlog Elimination Drive. We'll be trying to reduce the backlog and we need your help! Hard-working participants in the drive will receive awards for their contributions. If you have a spare moment, please join and wikify an article or tell your friends. Thanks!

Commons links
This month I thought that I would mention the {{Commons category}} template to generate a link to image categories on Commons holding additional images for topics. The template should be added to articles where Commons holds a number of other images that are not displayed in the article to provide a convenient link to these additional images. If you do not want to display the box then {{Commons category inline}} can be used instead to add an entry to the External links section.
The problem with both these templates is they use the article name as the name for the category on Commons so if an article is renamed the link is broken. To overcome this please ensure that all usages of these templates have as the first parameter the name of the category on Commons that is being used, even if it is the same as the article title. To enable those usages that have not been given a parameter to be tracked the hidden category Category:Commons category template with no category set has been set up. This has initially only been applied to the {{Commons category}} template. It would be good if members fixed these while editing articles to avoid having to edit specifically to fix the problem.
For newer members you can see hidden categories by setting the "Show hidden categories" option in the "Advanced options" section of the "Appearance" tab of the "my preferences" link.

Slow down Mcgraw
Don't be so quick to attack and chastise people. I did give a valid reason, and my edit was completely valid. You didn't even look at the article, obviously, and as a knee-jerk reaction reverted my edits without even checking to see if they were valid. While you were posting attacks on me on my talk page (my old talk page, after this I'll simply renew my IP) I was trying to continue to edit and add value to the article. In that time, you managed to fussily post on my talk page twice, then another busy-body editor posts chastising ME for not being civil. There we have 3 edits by oh-so-high-and-mighty editors while I was actually trying to improve the wiki. Nice job, you should be proud of your anal retentive, albeit useless jackassery. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.65.173.151 (talk) 16:34, 4 June 2012 (UTC)
