Hallo, Thank you for creating Doug Post (politician) and Randy Armstrong (politician) etc. When you create an article like this with a "disambiguated" title, please make sure that the reader can find it from the basic name, by adding or expanding a hatnote, or adding the article to a disambiguation page. This helps the reader to find your article, and also reduces the chance of a future careless editor creating a duplicate article with a slightly different disambiguator. I've fixed these two: see Doug Post and Randy Armstrong. Thanks, and Happy Editing. PamD 08:25, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

Ah, I see you added an Anna Williams dab page entry for Anna Williams (politician): great. That's the simplest case, where there's an existing dab page. See Larry Elkins for another situation; I see you sorted out Christy Clark and Michael Smith; I've created a hatnote for Terry Rogers; you fixed Bob Brooks; I've made a hatnote at Dale Carr; I've added Jim Gregory to the existing dab page; someone else made a disambiguation page for Jim Woodward.

There's a lot to learn about editing Wikipedia but it's an interesting journey. Happy Editing. PamD 08:45, 23 June 2020 (UTC)

@PamD: Ah, thanks for the pointers! I'll be more thorough about disambiguation going forward. Daknalo (talk) 01:39, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
