DYK for John Jonathon Pratt

[edit]

On 7 July 2020, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article John Jonathon Pratt, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that John Jonathon Pratt, known as the grandfather of the typewriter (1867 model pictured), invented several common typewriter features before Remington or Hammond machines entered the market? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/John Jonathon Pratt. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, John Jonathon Pratt), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Happy First Edit Day!

[edit]
Wow. 14 YEARS. How time flies when you are having fun. I had to go back to see what my first edit was and it turned out to be an inquiry at the Reference Desk about one of Petrarch's Latin works. It turned out to be an article started for me by another editor, of which I have a 85% authorship.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 09:59, 4 August 2020 (UTC)

Happy First Edit Day!

Robert Logan

[edit]

Hi Doug Coldwell- you seem to have converted Robert Logan to a disambig page, instead of the redirect to Robert Logan Jr. it used to be. That means that all the existing links to Robert Logan now go to a disambig page, though in fact all of them do actually mean the actor. Please either fix the redirect or fix the links. Robert Logan Jr. appears to be the primary meaning, so the best option would be to reinstate the redirect to Robert Logan Jr. and add a hatnote there referring the reader to the disambig page. Colonies Chris (talk) 09:58, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

It's best to have Robert Logan as the disambig page from my understanding of policy concerning such things. I believe that is the proper way to do that from my experience of creating a few articles over the last fourteen years.--Doug Coldwell (talk) 13:00, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

Louise Bourgeois

[edit]

When you moved Louise Bourgeois to Louise Josephine Bourgeois you left 901 links in article space that now link to a disambiguation page. Before I start an attempt to fix that: did you plan to do something about these links to a disambiguation page? Vexations (talk) 15:42, 16 August 2020 (UTC)

Move it back if you like. --Doug Coldwell (talk) 16:17, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
Doug Coldwell, I can't revert it because I can't overwrite the disambiguation page. How about the solution I suggested at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Visual_arts#Louise_Bourgeois? Vexations (talk) 16:41, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
