Um, for [[list of people]] and its sublists, I think it was agreed not to wikify the years, since they're all in the bios, and there's not likely to be much value in linking the year directly from the list. [[User:Stan Shebs|Stan]] 13:32, 2 Aug 2003 (UTC) |

* Well, in this quixotest quest of mine, i discovered several discrepancies between bios and lists. I also found lots of repetitions of people: the popes are a mess. About linking the years, i was starting to agree with you. But, then again, there are lots of years, specially before 1800, who don't have much information. I think i will continue with the removal of duplicates and adding births and deaths to years, without linking the years. Or do you think that's just a terrible waste of time? Did i understood your comment? [[User:Muriel Gottrop|Muriel]] |

Hello and welcome! "Wikify" means adding wiki-style markup such as bold, italics, and links. "fyi" simply means "For your information." I hope you have fun and if you have any other questions just ask me or the Village pump. --mav
Muriel, you might like to add something here about yourself?
