Warning Users
Hi there,
Thanks for your contributions and willingness to revert vandalism! If you didn't know, it is necessary to warn users after they vandalize Wikipedia. You can see here for a list of templates you can use. Additionally, tools such as Twinkle or Ultraviolet (previously RedWarn) makes reverting vandalism really easy.
I Hope you enjoy your time here and decide to stay! Myrealnamm (💬talk · ✏️contribs) at 13:14, 22 May 2024 (UTC)
Your reference work
@LazyCat256: I noticed that you have have been using date formats like this (2024-05-23) which violate Wikipedia:MOS. Instead they should be written out as (May 23, 2024). Catfurball (talk) 22:28, 23 May 2024 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for August 15
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Dallas Area Rapid Transit, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page KERA. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Infill stations
Howdy, I saw that you added that the upcoming 12th street DART station is the 4th "infill" station. It's my understanding that the Cityplace station was not an infill, in so much as that it was originally built along with the rest of the red line - but not opened due to financing. I realize the delay in opening kinda creates a grey area as to it be infill or not, but as confirmation of this, DART's Lake Highlands Station page calls it the first infill. We could partly avoid this grey area, by not referring to how many there are. Thoughts? —Mrand Talk • C 21:18, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
- Some older versions of the Cityplace station page listed it as an infill (albeit without any source), so I'd gotten in the habit of treating it as such. But if official DART media says that Lake Highlands is the first infill, that's good enough for me.
- I see you've already fixed the infill station list on the Lake Highlands and Hidden Ridge pages, so I'll go ahead and fix 12th Street. LazyCat256 (talk) 22:25, 17 January 2025 (UTC)
