Disambiguation link notification for September 4
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Retr0bright, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Commodore (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.

Done—Dah31 (talk) 20:38, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Degree symbols
[edit]Hi, I knew that there was misuse of one type of superscripted degree symbol, but could never sort out which was which. It would be very useful for me to know the correct symbol for temperature degrees on both Mac and Windows keyboards; can you advise? Tony (talk) 07:41, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
- WP:UNITS#Specific units says to use ° for both temperature and angles. Degree symbol#Keyboard entry should cover most other situations. Cheers!—Dah31 (talk) 06:37, 21 September 2016 (UTC)

Retargetable graphics/ReTargetable Graphics
[edit]You moved this page to Retargetable graphics with DevCon 1993 as source in your description. I think such bold change should have been discussed first - I don´t think DevCon 1993 is authoritative source in this regard (magazines, books and even promotional materials of GFX card vendors use various spelling(s) ). However, as your spelling is also used by few sources, I will not push for revert. Thanks for other changes you did on this article! Pavlor (talk) 06:52, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
- Admittedly, the DevCon notes are a primary source, the word from Commodore should be authoritative. As for secondary sources, a quick unscientific count over my magazine archive shows 123 hits for "[Rr]etargetable" and 14 for "[Rr]eTargetable" (35 and 2, respectively, for "…gettable"). I will add a citation to the intro and leave a note on the article talk page. Thanks!—Dah31 (talk) 09:07, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
- Well, in case of RTG, Commodore had not much to say to its implementation - company was bankrupt even before CGX release. That is why I can´t see DefCon document as authoritative - actual usage of the term in reliable secondary sources should be more important there. As this varies by magazine and age, plain "retargetable" is fine by me. I only fear someone other will come and move the page back to ReTargetable... Pavlor (talk) 09:45, 14 December 2016 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Helix (stationery company)
[edit]Hello Dah31,
I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Helix (stationery company) for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.
If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.
You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions.
