I propose the following relinkings in accordance with the Wikipedia:Link specificity guideline:

• railway station -> railway station
• railroad station -> railroad station
• suicide attempt -> suicide attempt

::I'm sorry for my incorrect phrasing. I meant to ask if there are some AWB users who are willing to do this task for me. Utfor (talk) 17:32, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

:::{{ping|Utfor}} it wasn't a misunderstanding of your request. Those links are able to serve several purposes: they can be the starting point for anyone to tackle the project; they let you know what articles are a "hit" so that you can alter your request if we didn't get it right; they keep this thread from being archived prematurely. So it would be great if you could just let us know if those links show articles that you think are good targets for the task, or if they are incomplete in some way. I may have time in the next couple days to do a run to try to get these taken care of. VanIsaac, GHTV ^contr_about 17:57, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

::::Thank you! I have read the search result snippets, and from what I see, the only entry that doesn't fit is Paternal depression. Utfor (talk) 18:31, 24 April 2025 (UTC)

:::::What is it about that article or the context where "suicide attempt" is found that makes it a bad fit? VanIsaac, GHTV ^contr_about 02:17, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::::::The word before "suicide attempt" is "fatal". Suicide attempts are by definition non-fatal. Or have I got it wrong? Utfor (talk) 20:52, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::{{ping|Utfor}} You will want to manually check any remaining items in the second list. I skipped several pages where the attempt resulted in eventual death, so I wanted to leave the judgement call up to you whether to relink those. VanIsaac, GHTV ^contr_about 05:08, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

:::User:Vanisaac Thank you again! I believe it's best to keep these remaining items without relinking them. Utfor (talk) 20:03, 27 April 2025 (UTC)

For reference to anyone reading this page now or in the future, the remaining pages in question are:

1. House season 3
2. Charles Gatewood
3. Duncan Scott-Ford
4. Paternal depression
5. I Remember You (2017 film)

Copied from my WP:BOTREQ post:

As seen in pages such as 2024 NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series Championship Race, there are external links listed in the entry lists. This is a violation of WP:ELLIST, and they should be unlinked. A discussion is here: Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_NASCAR#Should_sponsor_website_links_be_included_in_entry_lists.

Not sure how many years this goes back, but they would likely be on at least a hundred pages. I don’t see them on pages pre-2020, but have not gone through it all. I have also not seen anything like it on NASCAR Cup Series race pages. It would be a lot to go through, but the category :Category:NASCAR races by track should have all the races in it. Thanks!

The footer at Template:Elections in Alabama footer should be added to all articles that do not have it, and also have the similar Template:elections in Alabama sidebar, which may also be linked as Template:Elections in Alabama Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 18:44, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:Is there consensus to add this enormous new navbox to every article linked from it? 1884 Alabama gubernatorial election, for example, uses a more concise and limited navbox that people may want at that article. Also, some of the links in that big navbox, like 1916 United States House of Representatives elections in Alabama, are to redirects, where this navbox should not be installed (either on the redirect page or its target).

:

:The sidebar, meanwhile, is currently the subject of a TfD, so this request may be premature. You may want to pursue this task manually. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:36, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::I will wait for the result of the tfd, but there is no reason not to add it- on articles that already have a footer, it would simply show up as collapsed alongside it Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 20:45, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

:::If this huge footer is added to 1986 Alabama Attorney General election and then the sidebar is deleted, the huge footer will be shown as expanded, not collapsed, causing the article to increase in length (measured by scrolling) by 100% to 150%, depending on your window width. Is there consensus to significantly change the appearance of articles in this way? If not, you can boldly add the footer yourself, but asking another editor to do it using AWB is probably not a good idea. – Jonesey95 (talk) 20:52, 25 April 2025 (UTC)

::::@Jonesey95 the footer is now autocollapsed on all pages, and the discussion was closed as no consensus. The footer would still be helpful if the task could be done now Yoblyblob (Talk) :) 20:44, 4 May 2025 (UTC)

The outcome of Wikipedia:Templates for discussion/Log/2025 March 21#Template:Cyrillic alphabet sidebar was to convert {{tl|Cyrillic alphabet sidebar}} to {{tl|Cyrillic navbox}}. Could you please carry this out, preferably while conforming to MOS:ORDER? Many thanks. Janhrach (talk) 12:35, 1 May 2025 (UTC)

I recently closed an RM discussion that moved the article {{-r|Telus}} to Telus Communications, and I'd like to retarget the existing mainspace links to that article so that the primary title can potentially become a DAB or get usurped if desired. According to Special:WhatLinksHere, there are currently 391 mainspace links to {{-r|Telus}}; as far as I can tell, all of them should be suitable for retargeting. Would someone be able to help out with this? ModernDayTrilobite (talk • contribs) 19:11, 15 May 2025 (UTC)

:Sure! {{doing}} ~ Rusty ^meow ~ 22:46, 15 May 2025 (UTC)
