Can I quickly ask why your mass changing links from i (newspaper) to i (British newspaper) when the former link is WP:NOTBROKEN and isn't in need of disambiguation? Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 18:34, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

@Cakelot1: Would you please look again? i (newspaper) is ambiguous: i (Portuguese newspaper). Paradoctor (talk) 18:40, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
The link isn't ambiguous because i (newspaper) and i (British newspaper) link to the same place. In almost all cases these are piped links meaning this is a purely a WP:COSMETIC edit that doesn't change the output HTML/reader experience. As WP:MEATBOT says Purely cosmetic changes performed by a human editor in a bot-like fashion may also be considered disruptive. So, with that in mind, is there a tangible non-cosmetic reason to make these edits? Are you thinking changing where i (newspaper) redirects? Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 18:52, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
WP:COSMETIC: a substantive edit is one that does change the output HTML
Which disambiguating links does. Paradoctor (talk) 19:34, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
The link is to the same place, there is no change from the point of view of the person clicking the link. The only difference is what the link looks like in wikitext which is effectively a Cosmetic edit. Your yet to articulate what benefit (to the reader) is gained by these edits.

That is dead wrong. The HTML contains a different link.
Not all edits are for the benefit of the reader. Will the British paper be the primary topic from here to eternity? Paradoctor (talk) 20:01, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
Will the British paper be the primary topic from here to eternity? Will it not be? Do you have some reason to think that its going to change anytime soon? I can see no proposal or discussions of moving the redirect. Surely such changes can be left until there's an actual need, and not when nothing is broken and there's seemingly no indication that it will ever become broken. Cakelot1 ☞️ talk 20:08, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
As they both re-direct to The i Paper, why not by-pass the redirects entirely and pipe directly to that, as in: [[The i Paper|i]]? -- DeFacto (talk). 20:34, 19 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]

Hi. I noticed you nominated Skeleton crew for deletion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Skeleton crew, but you did not leave a deletion rationale stating why you want it deleted. ZyphorianNexus Talk 23:27, 8 February 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
