A few comments regarding your edits today.

  • When adding an infobox to a pirate page, please do not put galleries=0 if the pirate exists as it does not provide a yoweb link. This yoweb link is very useful for finding out additional information about a pirate.
  • When adding the infobox to a pirate page don't forget to add the {{oceans}} (Usage) category template as well so we can reference each pirate to at least one ocean.
  • Just because a page was created with very little information, like the article Fog, does not mean that it is vandalism and therefore the proposed deletion on that page was reverted.
  • 2 articles with the same name do not provide a need for a disambuation page. Have a look at how the sword and pirate named Cleaver are handled.
  • If you read the Yppedia:Editors' Code of Conduct you will see that it suggests being patient with other editors, especially new ones, by not jumping in immediate on a page. Allow at least 15 minutes before you make a change to a page to give that editor a chance to not get caught with seeing an edit conflict message which can be very confusing. I know that it happens by accident some days (I even do it myself occasionally) but it is always something to keep in mind.
