Disambiguation link notification for October 14

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Esperanza, Belize, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page San Ignacio. 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's OK to remove this message. Also, to stop receiving these messages, follow these opt-out instructions. Thanks, DPL bot (talk) 09:22, 14 October 2014 (UTC)

Trans and queer game developers

Ordinarily queer is a slur, but I suspect in this instance it means something else. Is this a gaming industry term?Two kinds of porkBacon 05:24, 18 October 2014 (UTC)

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "GamerGate (controversy)". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 27 October 2014.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

Proposal to move pronunciations and other info from lead
