Rare NIN songs category.

Anyone have a comment on the list? I'd rather not add the links and make the category if there's a general concensus against it, precious bandwidth and all. Sheepdean 11:51, 11 July 2008 (PDT)

I noticed you editing a LOT, and I'd like to thank you for all of your contributions thusfar. You're doing a really great job! --Tony^converse! 20:11, 5 December 2008 (PST)

Cheers, it's no problem, I'd like to see this site be as definitive as possible, as I'm sure you would to =). And I had an idea which I keep forgetting to post - when someone links to a disambiguation page, would it be possible to send up a little dialogue/warning box before it is posted? A lot of the edits that I do are fixing those links, would make it easier and would teach people how to link to pages with alt. text. For example:

You've posted a link to a disambiguation page - did you mean to link to a song or album? Try [[song title (song)|song title]] or
 [[album title (halo)|album title]]

Or even:

You've posted a link to a disambiguation page - did you mean to link to a song or album? Click
[[link to as-yet non existent help page|here]].

Any thoughts?sheepdean 12:20, 6 December 2008 (PST)

That's a great idea, but it would take a PHP whiz, and while I'm pretty good with it, I'm no magician. --Tony^converse! 21:20, 6 December 2008 (PST)
