Hello, Lombroso, and welcome to Wikipedia. Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few good links for newcomers:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! By the way, you can sign your name on Talk and vote pages using three tildes, like this: ~~~. Four tildes (~~~~) produces your name and the current date. If you have any questions, see the help pages, add a question to the village pump or ask me on my talk page. Again, welcome!

Okikatsu Arao

Why are you turning blue links into red links? Pdfpdf (talk) 14:45, 9 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Because the the proper way to read of "興功" is "Okikatsu", not "Okitsugu". See ja:荒尾興功.--Lombroso (talk) 14:55, 9 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
I didn't ask how to spell his name - I asked: Why are you turning blue links into red links? Pdfpdf (talk) 08:59, 10 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
The issue was already resolved. Could you check it again, please? --Lombroso (talk) 16:11, 10 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
Next time it might be a good idea if you do the move before you start changing the links so that the new links point to a blue page, not a red one. It might also be a good idea if you use the edit summary to explain what you are doing and thus save everybody from wasting time effort and energy, including yourself.

Meanwhile, the following pages still link to Okitsugu Arao. Pdfpdf (talk) 05:46, 11 March 2013 (UTC)Reply
