Point X camp revert helpHello, I saw that you reverted my edit creating a disambiguation page for Point X (thank you for that). As this was my first attempt trying to solve a disambiguation situation, I wasn't sure what the best solution would be. Can you please help me understand what the preferred solution for this was and why? I looked through a lot of WP:DAB prior to the edit but clearly it's taking me a while to wrap my head around. Should I have considered the original redirect to be the primary topic? Any insight you could provide would be appreciated to help me improve my future editing. Thank you.

Short pagesHi JalenBarks, just saw your addition of Short pages monitor to Scribbled rabbitfish. Would there be a way to make {{Animal common name}} or {{Plant common name}} to mark the pages as automatically not appearing on the Short page list? I note Bog orchid for example is there now.

Glady (surname) page disputeI am responding to your message. I don’t understand the fundamental dispute regarding the Glady surname page. I made it 6 years ago, now suddenly there’s an issue because someone wanted to make a page about someone named Angel Glady. The surname page was essentially hijacked and redirected to Angel Glady even though the original article about this individual should be its own page completely independent of the Glady surname page. The surname page is about the surname. The Angel Glady page is about the person. How is this hard to understand? Angel Glady has a separate independent page that is featured on the Glady disambiguation page. For some reason, the editors of the page insist on also hijacking the surname page as if a page about the Glady surname is somehow invalid. There are many many many surname pages, yet this page is somehow a problem? Why should Angel Glady have a page, yet also get to hijack and redirect the Glady surname page? It makes no sense.

Inappropriate warning and CSD tagsThe 4IM warning you left at User_talk:90.241.189.212 was inappropriate, as the IP's edits to Draft:Horrid Henry's Hobby (and related drafts) are VERY clearly not vandalism. They appear to be edits to create articles for episodes about the show Horrid Henry (TV series). I've also declined 7 pages which you tagged as WP:CSD G2 (test pages), which appeared to be the beginning of articles and definitely not test pages. Please review WP:CSD G2 and be careful when adding CSD tags in the future. Episode drafts you do not like should not be edit warred over and they should not be marked as test pages unless they very clearly are.

Hi JalenBarks -- I've declined this A1 and moved the article to draftspace for the creator. A1 isn't applicable as it's pretty clear what the subject of the article is meant to be. Also you tagged it only about 15 minutes after creation -- I thought patrollers were meant to give broadly unproblematic "articles" like this a full hour before placing these kinds of speedies?
