Deliberate manipulation
In the page Feyli Lurs, some ethnocentric users are manipulating deliberately to question and misrepresent the well-documented page. Please help to stop their felonious ethnocentric efforts. Best regards. --Shadegan (talk) 20:01, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

In use template
- The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.
Erpert, you have a tendency to over-use the "in use" template, at least when editing Food Network competition show articles. The template is designed for occasional use when an article or a section of an article is undergoing a major revision. What you're doing are routine edits that are not of the duration or majority for which the template was intended. I've removed it from Food Network Kids. Please be careful to use template as intended, not to keep other editors away while you tweak a table. --Drmargi (talk) 18:46, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- What I'm doing isn't a major revision? And you know this how? Erpert blah, blah, blah... 18:50, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- You use that template every time you make an edit to any of the Food Network elimination shows, when most of what you're doing is minor stuff. That makes it hard to be sure whether the edits are major or not. What you did today should have been done in your sandbox. There was no justifiable reason to put incorrect information in the article, however briefly or for whatever reason. If all you need are the headings, cut-and-past the headings. None of this was anything approaching a major edit; your use of tweak in multiple edit summaries is proof enough of that. --Drmargi (talk) 19:03, 1 October 2016 (UTC)
- The documentation at Template:In use clearly states that I am indeed using the template correctly. Nowhere on that page does it state that edits that going on in an article for a short while should be done in one's sandbox; specifically, it states:

- Two hours hasn't passed. Now, drop the stick. (And my usage of "tweak" is irrelevant.) Erpert blah, blah, blah... 19:10, 1 October 2016 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for October 3
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Katie Lee (chef), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Huntington (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.
