Disambiguator for Gordonton, New Zealand[edit]
Hi Gadfium. A few years back you merged Gordonton into Gordonton, New Zealand. I'm wondering whether we need the disambiguator or whether we could move the article to Gordonton. Was there any partic reason you kept the disambiguator? ta, Nurg (talk) 01:06, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- @Nurg: I suspect it was because the standard practice at the time was to keep the older title. I have no problem with moving it to the simpler name. If you concur that this is an uncontroversial move, I'll just go ahead and do it.-Gadfium (talk) 01:44, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks. I concur. Go ahead, and thanks for volunteering. Nurg (talk) 01:48, 17 May 2024 (UTC)
- Done.-Gadfium (talk) 02:44, 17 May 2024 (UTC)

Scorpions1325's vote[edit]
Hi Gadfium... Noticed you altered their vote and it now looks like they never voted in the current RfA. You could've discussed your concerns on their talk page without changing their vote. I've seen a vote like that before and think they meant it as a joke. This is just my honest opinion. But let me ping them here ~Scorpions1325 in case I'm wrong. Regards, Volten001 ☎ 05:40, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- I did post to their talk page. Maybe they were joking, maybe they meant to type support, maybe they meant to put it in the oppose section. They have plenty of time to come back and clarify what they meant before the RfA finishes.-Gadfium (talk) 05:56, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response. Since a bureaucrat has already reinstated the !vote, let's just leave it there. If the editor meant something else then they will respond and edit their !vote. Regards, Volten001 ☎ 06:37, 3 June 2024 (UTC)

(Opt-out instructions.) --DPL bot (talk) 06:27, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
- That's deliberate, because it isn't clear which locations the song refers to. The article already linked to these disambiguation pages, although not directly.-Gadfium (talk) 06:51, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
