Disambiguation link notification for April 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Telomerase RNA component, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Template (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.

- It may seem silly to reply to a bot, but I might as well justify myself. In edition Telomerase_RNA_component, I wanted a wikilink to the word template to clarify the meaning of that word in the context of the article (especially to readers for whom English is not the native language). Disambiguation pages often contain entries to Misplaced Pages pages that are specific to the meaning desired, but in this case the meaning desired was in the "Molecular genetics" section — which only contains links to DNA and RNA. Moreover, for reverse transcriptase, RNA is serving as a template for DNA, not for protein. But linking to the disambiguation page gives lots of relevant information that will make the concept of "template" clear enough to non-English speakers or children. --Ben Best 13:12, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
