 | Welcome to my talk page. Please adhere to the talk page guidelines and particularly the following:

Welcome!
WELCOME!! Hello, Derek R Bullamore! I want to personally welcome you on behalf of the Misplaced Pages community. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you haven't already, you can put yourself in the new user log and the list of users so you can be properly introduced to everyone. Don't forget to be bold, and don't be afraid of hungry Wikipedians...there's a rule about not biting newcomers. Some other good links are the tutorial, how to edit a page, or if you're really stuck, see the help pages. Misplaced Pages is held up by Five Pillars...I recommend reading about them if you haven't already. Finally, it would be really helpful if you would sign your name on talk pages, so people can get back to you quickly. It's easy to do this by clicking the button (next to the one with the "W" crossed out) one from the end on the left. If that's confusing, or if you have any questions, feel free to drop me a ♪ at my talk page (by clicking the plus sign (+) next to the tab at the top that says "edit this page")...and again, welcome!--ViolinGirl 00:20, 18 December 2005 (UTC)

Category:Monthly clean up category (Articles needing link rot cleanup) counter
You should note that I am using Category:Monthly clean up category (Articles needing link rot cleanup) counter to get each month below 100 articles needing link rot cleanup. I have left the Reflinks tag on some articles needing more attention.
Tell me, can Reflinks be started without using the article tag?--DThomsen8 (talk) 21:09, 14 November 2013 (UTC)
- Firstly, good news. Whilst the overall counter stood at 6,000 plus in early September (if I remember correctly), and thus 2,000 or so now is clearly the way forward, all hands to the pump are much appreciated. I am not too sure what you mean by 'can Reflinks be started without using the article tag?' How else could it identify what you/me/everyone is trying to improve ? I am not very technically minded on procedures/protocols etc !
Hi
When you got time please check out the refs for Nour El-Refai. Regards.--BabbaQ (talk) 14:18, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
Done - Weldon Rogers
You tagged Weldon Rogers for clean-up, citing the need to use wikitables. Here's my question: I am currently building an article that does not use wiki tables. Moreover, it uses some coding. Would you mind taking a peek inside my sandbox and comment right on the page? In this particular instance, I think wiki tables would not work as well. By contrast I added wiki tables in Steve Turre's article, where I think it works very well. I hope to add pix in the next 24 hours, then take the sandbox article live in 2-4 days. You've written-up a lot of musicians, so I would appreciate your support. Tanx! Eurodog (talk) 03:42, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
Kokum oil
You were able to do two more references for Kokum oil with Reflinks. How is this done?--DThomsen8 (talk) 14:16, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
- Primarily by manual intervention. For instance, Reflinks does not pick up PDF files, so these need your own input. Alternatively, click on a reference link that Reflinks might not pick up, and see if it is a viable link. If so, create your own reference based on the information. Reflinks is great, but it does sometimes need the personal touch. I hope this helps,
- Manual intervention does not seem to me to how Kokum oil history shows what you did for that particular article. You can see from my contributions that I did a variety of oils articles yesterday, and mostly left the Reflinks tags behind.--DThomsen8 (talk) 14:36, 21 November 2013 (UTC)
- I am a little unsure what you mean. My edit simply identified one dead link; plus, by my intervention of exploring one PDF file link, added the relevant fuller reference for the latter. I simply used Reflinks as the starting point, but made the necessary manual edit to one cite that it does not have the capability to flesh out itself.
A barnstar for you!
