Your recent edit to the article for Wyckoff, New Jersey used AWB to "fix" a link to Time (Magazine). The "fix" is both unnecessary here and the replacement added here and elsewhere is broken. Alansohn (talk) 00:58, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed it. That was the only instance of the fix being off. I might have accidentally deleted the pipe with a stray keyboard stroke. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 11:28, 30 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merger discussion for Plant communication

An article that you have been involved in editing—Plant communication —has been proposed for merging with another article. If you are interested, please participate in the merger discussion. Thank you. Edaham (talk) 01:12, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

You have received this message as you are one of the most recent names in either the source or destination article's history page. This proposal serves two purposes, namely

  1. To suggest a merge (obviously) of the overlapping material
  2. To draw attention to the source article (the info to be merged into the destination article, which requires expansion)

Many thanks for your time! Edaham (talk) 01:13, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Skeptic (disambiguation)

Hello Headbomb. Your edits to Skeptic (disambiguation) are marked as copyediting, but I think what you've really done is merged The Skeptic with Skeptic (disambiguation). Shouldn't you now apply {{merged-from}} and {{merged-to}} tags per Wikipedia:Merging#How to merge ? In the meantime I have removed the circular See also link. Regards, Shhhnotsoloud (talk) 05:03, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, the edit summary should have read 'Mergef from The Skeptic', but then I think I previewed and done some copyediting and went with that edit summary instead by mistake. I've tagged the talk pages. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 13:36, 8 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
