Disambiguation link notification for March 19

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Adolphe Appian, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chevalier (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Wikilinking

Hi, and thanks for your work on the English Wikipedia.

I noticed an article you worked on. Just a short note to point out that we don’t normally link:

dates
years
commonly known geographical terms (including well-known country-names), and
common terms you’d look up in a dictionary (unless significantly technical).

(This even applies for infoboxes.)

Thanks and my best wishes.

Laurion

Why did you undo my edit? It adds to more detail on laurion especially because so much more description of site in French. Let reader know about More Description available of Laurion. This is useful.

There is no need to add a link to the article in the French Wikipedia within the English article text. On the left hand site of the page there is already a list of links to articles of the same subject in other languages including French. As far as I can see the French article is even shorter than the English one, but if it contains information which is not in the English version you should translate that information and add it to the English article.
