Oak Grove, Louisiana

Hi there. I see you were the last to edithere,so maybe you can help, because disambiguation pages make me dizzy.

The articleOak Grove, Louisianais the only "Oak Grove" in the state with a Wikipedia article. However, the meat of the article is located atOak Grove, West Carroll Parish, Louisiana.

There was alsoWikipedia:Articles for deletion/Oak Grove, Louisiana.

(As an aside,Oak Grove, Louisianawas created by a notorious sock I've been hunting for years)

I think the entire article should be moved back to "Oak Grove, Louisiana".

What do you think? Cheers!Magnolia677(talk)11:09, 3 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I see you changed the DAB page, but this is still the only "Oak Grove" in Louisiana. The parish name is unnecessary, no?Magnolia677(talk)11:00, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Magnolia677:Thanks for dropping by. I have a health issue which wrecks my ability to concentrate. The wholly-unlinked entry on the DAB page needs to go. As for your main point, I agree with you - theWP:PTOPICforOak Grove, LouisianaisOak Grove, West Carroll Parish, Louisiana.I suggest aWP:RM#Uncontroversial technical requests.Link this discussion. I have the technical permissions to make the necessary moves but lack the stamina. Best,Narky Blert(talk)14:16, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am so sorry to hear that. I noticed that you had been less active than when we collaborated so successfully but I had hoped it was by choice. I hope that ill health is not affecting your offline life too badly and I wish you all the best.Certes(talk)15:54, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

TY for your kind words.Narky Blert(talk)20:00, 9 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for your advice with this. I hope your health issues improve soon and you're back to 100 percent. Cheers!Magnolia677(talk)09:54, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar 4 U!

		The Bluelink patrol Barnstar
		You're the first to receive this, for startingWikiProject Bluelink patrol,you deserve it.Jerium(talk)21:15, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I also have a request. I usually make a criteria for every new barnstar made, but I can't comprehend the ideal-purpose of the WikiProject to come up with one. Can you develop a criteria to be assign for this barnstar? Thank you.Jerium(talk)21:15, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Jerium:Thank you! This is a rare honour.

A health scare are the end of 2021 pretty much wrecked my ability to concentrate, and I have been almost inactive on WP since then. Others who deserve this award include (but are not limited to) my colleaguesCertesandGoingBatty,without whom I wouldn't have thought of setting upWP:BPAT.

Inclusion criterion? I suggest nomination by active members. UsWP:WIKIGNOMES don't seek recognition, and can be rather embarrassed by it.Narky Blert(talk)21:59, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm glad you like the gesture. I know there are others who deserve this also, but you know more of them than me. Perhaps you can express such appreciation to them. Anyways, thanks for your past and future efforts, happy editing & cheers!Jerium(talk)22:27, 27 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
