Disambiguation link notification for August 26
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited HD 83443, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page ICRS (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.

I've declined your speedy, as if you look closely, they are two different stones (or varieties of a stone). The shells are differently arranged, and that seems important. (Other differences, too.) Peridon (talk) 11:13, 24 September 2012 (UTC)

Page Curation newsletter
Hey Makecat. I'm dropping you a note because you used to (or still do!) patrol new pages. This is just to let you know that we've deployed and developed Page Curation, which augments and supersedes Special:NewPages - there are a lot of interesting new features :). There's some help documentation here if you want to familiarise yourself with the system and start using it. If you find any bugs or have requests for new features, let us know here. Thanks!

Copeland "Anti-kickback" Act
Though you'll probably see it anyway, I non-admin closed your AFD at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Copeland "Anti-kickback" Act after you effectively withdrew your nomination by "voting" keep. Thought I should post you a note as a courtesy. I didn't think it would be controversial and there didn't seem any point to keeping it open. Happy to discuss if you think I was too trigger-happy.

External link removed
Hi Makecat. I noticed that you removed my external link The Top Points To Consider When Selecting A Binary Options Trading Platform from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_options_trading_platform. I understand the guidelines but I am not aware of any that have been broken, can you please enlighten me. The content was written specifically with Wikipedia in mind and provides a vast amount of high quality past, current and up coming information, with details of an announcement from the Cyprus Securities and Exchange Commission. It is clearly on my blog, but there is no attempt at selling any affiliate product, service etc whatsoever. Even advertisements throughout the main blog are very minimal. I feel strongly that the content I added provides a lot of value to the Wikipedia page in question, expanding and clarifying the existing content on the page in a positive way. I therefore ask you to reconsider removing it. Bftkt (talk) 15:16, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
