Redirect tracking

Hi! I noticed you tagged the redirect Tracy–Widom random variable with the template {{R from alternative name}}. This isn't quite right because a random variable and a distribution are different things (although they are closely related which is why the redirect is suitable). Is there another tracking template that would be more appropriate in light of that? Thanks!! CapitalSasha ~ talk 17:48, 6 April 2023 (UTC)

Hello! Perhaps {{R to related topic}} would be suitable? Have a great day! ✠ SunDawn ✠ (contact) 11:26, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

Procedural notification

Hi, I and others have proposed additional options at Wikipedia:Village_pump_(policy)#RfC_on_a_procedural_community_desysop. You may wish to review your position in that RfC. TonyBallioni (talk) 02:31, 20 April 2023 (UTC)
