edit request

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at A. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

Please add

Anne Casimir Pyrame de Candolle (1836-1918) aka C.DC.

because C.DC. redirects there. -- 67.70.35.44 (talk) 03:06, 16 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Adding "CDC: Cloud Data Center"

I add the following discussion to prevent a "revert war" on this page!

Unfortunately "GB fan" insists on inhibiting my new entry "CDC: Cloud Data Center" due to its red link. As it could be seen in history, [s]he asserts that: "All entries on disambiguation pages must include a blue link where someone can find information no red link only entries". But I think: "Adding Red Links is a motivator for completing the article/page. It's better to help to create new article about Cloud Data Centers instead of removing the new entry".

On the other hand, on the 1st paragraph of page Wikipedia:Red link we see: "It is useful while editing articles to add a red link to indicate that a page will be created soon or that an article should be created for the topic because the subject is notable and verifiable. A study conducted in 2008 showed that red links helped Wikipedia grow.[1] Follow-up work on this indicated that the creation of red links prevents new pages from being orphaned from the start.[2]"

What's your idea? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mjdtjm (talk • contribs) 13:47, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Mjdtjm: Views have evolved over the past decade. It's generally preferred to have the article in place before adding the title to disambiguation pages. See WP:Write the article first. —C.Fred (talk) 13:53, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

The manual of style for diambiguation pages, MOS:DAB, states that every entry must have exactly one blue link and that article must provide information about what we are diambiguating, in this case CDC. I have searched to find an article that we can link to that discusses cloud data centers but have come up empty. If there is a page that discusses them that I have not found then we can create an entry but until we do or someone creates an article it does not belong on this page. ~ GB fan 21:43, 16 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Move & rename

(US Fed'l) "Ctrs for Dis Ctrl" (primary topic) should be target of Rdr CDC, and should in turn have a Rdr'n hatnote to the accompanying "(Dab'n)"-suffixed prcd'g Dab page. (Check to see if this existing talk pg might need to be broken up, or just renamed in A different direction from the accompanying main-namespace page: if you can open several windows on the same screen, you can easily work this out better than my addled senior brain and single-window iPad II can.)
