{{help me}} How can I update the references to "Effrat, Louis" to point to the "Louis Effrat" page, or do I simply go through and edit each article as I've been doing? There are lots of little references.

Here is the answer I wrote for you at the Help desk -

I have removed the "orphan" notice, since there are several articles linking to this one. This search only lists 22 pages that contain the words "Louis" and "Effrat", so I don't think it is worth looking for an automatic solution. I've added one link as an example of the kind of edit that you could make.

Great thank you! I just wanted to make sure I was doing this properly. I'll continue to link the other remaining articles back to this page --Anacreo (talk) 21:27, 28 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Re Adoption[edit]

Hi Anacreo. I see you had an active adoption request outstanding. However, since you have not edited in a few months I've taken this down. Should you wish to be adopted upon your return, feel free to create a new request. Worm^TT · (talk) 09:04, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
