[edit] Original Area Codes

The title of Original area codes did not need to be changed. Back then these were the only area codes in existence. Plus only North America uses area codes to this day. Everywhere else uses country codes and versions of country codes. I think the original title was better.

[edit] Be more careful in disambiguation

I saw that you have changed "Pahlavi" to "Parthian language" in many pages. Most of these changes were wrong and counter-productive. Pahlavi doesn't always mean "Parthian language". Alefbe (talk) 10:17, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

I realize that since I didn't change them all to the language (quite a few went to Pahlavi Dynasty). But to me the ones I did change seemed to fit that description. The link on the disam page does state that it refers to the language and the speakers of the language. I don't do disamming without thought, trust me. I can be wrong but it doesn't mean I wasn't careful. --User:Woohookitty ^{Diamming fool!} 10:23, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Hi, can you give me the list of pages of concern..I'll go through them slowly and change it. Sometimes though the references are ambigious. For example Pahlavi can mean Parthian, Middle Persian, Regional Iranian dialects or even modern Persian (Jami the poet says that the book of Rumi is the Qur'an in Pahlavi (Modern Persian)). Thanks. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 11:09, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

If you can undo the rest, I'll appreciate it. Just give me the whole list and I'll go through it slowly and will do it myself. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 11:22, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Okay thanks. That is a large list and I'll try to do some once in a while I log in. --Nepaheshgar (talk) 11:35, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Yes the Pahlavi dynasty ones are easy. Feel free to find those and change them. The harder ones are Zoroastrian and regional dialect ones. Thanks for your effort.--Nepaheshgar (talk) 11:37, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Error in Template:FilmUS

Hi Woohookitty. Please correct your change in Template:FilmUS, now every article using this template has an unnecessary "</noinclude>" in the text. --Ilion2 (talk) 18:07, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Yes, I've just spotted this too. I'll fix the other templates that are broken too. Lugnuts (talk) 18:15, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Scots language

I caught this at Scotland Rugby Union. Scottish Gaelic is not the same language as Scots, Scots is a language close to English and is not a Celtic language. It is wrong to change links to Gaelic into links to the Scots language.GordyB (talk) 14:18, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

Apologies. I made 300+ edits last night so I can handle one mistake. :) Thanks for catching it. --User:Woohookitty ^{Diamming fool!} 14:23, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

That's okay, I thought you were using a bot and had made hundreds of similar edits. I wouldn't normally have bothered you over one edit.GordyB (talk) 15:25, 7 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] delete?

Hey Woohookitty, would you speedy David Jofre? It's pretty obviously a resume, what with the hadshots and all, lays no claim to notability that I can see, and has no references that can count as reliable sources. I'm also asking so I can learn exactly what qualifies for a speedy and what doesn't. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 03:59, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

• I guess that answers that! Thanks, Drmies (talk) 04:11, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Marlboro Reds

I slapped the speedy template on it because it is "a full flavor cigarette in which the smoker gets the flavor he/she is craving for" made up a significant part of the article; another significant part was taken up by the results of some poll on the Marlboro website. Fundamental rewrite, therefore, I thought. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 20:16, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
