Talk:Green card

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Users CliffC and another identified by their IP number have so changed the page that it contains incorrect and wrong information. Thus reverting to original form. If you are against this, then delete references to European Union legislation. (VivaBelgicaBE 01:55, 10 November 2007 (UTC))

Green card is a disambiguation page; Wikipedia has rules for the format of disambiguation pages, at MOS:DP, which states in part

Disambiguation pages are solely intended to allow users to choose among several Wikipedia articles, usually when a user searches for an ambiguous term. This style guideline is intended to make this process more efficient by giving disambiguation pages a consistent look and avoiding distracting information, such as extraneous links (internal or external). [...] Keep in mind that the primary purpose of the disambiguation page is to help people find the information they want quickly and easily. These pages are not for exploration, but only to help the user navigate to a specific article.

The changes you seem to be objecting to were made to streamline the page for ease of use and to reduce its bloated condition, with the edit summary "doing requested cleanup per MOS:DP: remove text unnecessary for disambiguation, ext linkspam, ext links duplicated in target articles, trim to one bluelink per line". Let's keep the page slim and trim. --CliffC 05:35, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

The information included on the page is completely wrong. Therefore, I am removing that information. (VivaBelgicaBE 01:55, 10 November 2007 (UTC))
