List markup

Your edit here is detrimental to people who use assistive software, such as the sightless, because it makes your comment a separate list in the HTML markup to those that precede it. en:WP:LISTGAP touches on this, but in short you are putting extra steps in the way of them hearing your comment read out by their software. Please undo it. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 21:01, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

@Pigsonthewing: I was replying to the OP. Bullets are not meant for that purpose, see en:WP:THREAD.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me}🇺🇦 21:06, 24 September 2023 (UTC)

I'm very familiar with that section, and indeed the one following it, where you will find:

Some pages (deletion discussions, for example) use asterisks (*) rather than colons for indentation. Generally, colons and asterisks should not be mixed; if you see asterisks are being used in a page, use them as well.

The several !votes preceding yours all used asterisks. Andy Mabbett (Pigsonthewing); Talk to Andy; Andy's edits 00:25, 25 September 2023 (UTC)

@Pigsonthewing: Oh yes, I found it, all right. You added it in this edit 01:07, 3 January 2015. I developed my method of replying on wikis about eight years before that, but I will try to keep your advice in mind.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me}🇺🇦 11:10, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Misspelling

Hello Jeff, reaching out to you this time for something you might be able to help: Karl Ral should be written Carl Rahl. There are quite some files in need to be changed and you might know of a user being able to do it "in one go". Thank you ever so much. Lotje (talk) 03:21, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

@Lotje: I was able to do it myself with VFC.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me}🇺🇦 03:39, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

Y're a star Jeff. George E. Koronaios will be thrilled and I thank you very much. Cheers. Lotje (talk) 04:16, 28 September 2023 (UTC)

This is incredible. Thank you so much. I will be checking this out thoroughly. George E. Koronaios (talk) 04:45, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

Hello Jeff, the word "university" is incorrectly spelled univeristy. Is there a way to correct at least the spelling in the description? Thank you so much Jeff. Lotje (talk) 13:31, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

@Lotje:  Done, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=insource%3AUniveristy&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns6=1 is done and https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?search=intitle%3AUniveristy&title=Special:Search&profile=advanced&fulltext=1&ns6=1 is done in that all are redirects now.   — 🇺🇦Jeff G. ツ _{please ping or talk to me}🇺🇦 10:59, 1 October 2023 (UTC)

Spelling mistake

Hello Jeff, these are all misspelled, cause it should read Fortress Louisbourg. Would you have a spare minute to have them renamed in one go? Thank you ever so much. Lotje (talk) 15:49, 4 October 2023 (UTC)
