| == You left a message on my talk page == | |||
| Hello! I just saw a message by you on my talk page. You said that you are very familiar with Baloch history, then you asked me to to make a page on Baloch Khan. I can make that page if you want me to, but first I’ll need some info to put in it. Kindly tell me all the basic stuff to include in the article and then I’ll make the article or else it may get removed quickly. I’ll be waiting for your reply. :) ] (]) 23:38, 3 July 2020 (UTC) | |||

| == Holdfast (disambiguation) == | |||
| Please note that disambiguation pages like ] are meant to help readers find a specific ''existing'' article quickly and easily. For that reason, they have guidelines that are different from articles. From the ] you should: | |||
| *Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for | |||
| *Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end | |||
| *'''Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry that mentions the title being disambiguated''' | |||
| *Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article | |||
| *Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible | |||
| *Do not insert external links or references - Misplaced Pages is not a business directory | |||
| The only article that mentions ''Holdfast: Nations At War'' (that I could find) is ], so I added that link to your entry and removed the other blue links. ] (]) 01:00, 10 July 2020 (UTC) | |||

| ] | |||
| Hi 0qd. After reviewing your request for "{{mono|rollbacker}}", I have <span class="plainlinks"></span> rollback on your account for '''1 month'''. Keep in mind these things when going to use rollback: | |||
| *Getting rollback is no more momentous than installing ]. | |||

| *Rollback should never be used to ]. | |||
| *If abused, rollback rights can be revoked. | |||
| *Use common sense. | |||
| If you no longer want rollback, you can always ask for removal at ]. Also, for some more information on how to use rollback, see ] (even though you're not an admin). I'm sure you'll do great with rollback, but feel free to ask at the ] if you run into troubles or have any questions about appropriate/inappropriate use of rollback. Thank you for helping to reduce vandalism. Happy editing! ] (]) 22:42, 17 July 2020 (UTC) | |||

| : {{ping|Modussiccandi}} Hi. I've assessed it as a B for WP CGR & low importance. I'm not comfortable with rating above Start for any other WikiProjects as I'm not particularly familiar with their criteria, however if you'd like me to I'd be happy to look into it for you (as a note, it will take a bit). Great work on the article. ] (]) 23:33, 4 August 2020 (UTC) | |||
