[edit] Redirects to Paint by number

Would you, please, stop redirecting everything with paint, color and number to page, which you kindly like to spam? thanks. -- jsimlo(talk|cont) 13:08, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

Please, also read the Wikipedia:Spam page for info about making a lot of redirects and adding/removing internal/external links. Thanks. -- jsimlo(talk|cont) 13:12, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
Jsimlo, I have not been spamming, I have only tried to correct an error, that is your assertion that a nonogram is a paint by numbers. It is not the generally accepted definition of paint(ing) by number(s). However I can accept that paint by numbers puzzel is a term that refers to nonograms. This issue has now been resolved through the use of a disambiguation page! Timtennant
Well, according to your edit history, I guess, that you already know, that Paint by numbers is also one of the common names of a Nonogram logic puzzle. I agree, that the disambig page is the best solution, since the Paint by numbers actually do mean both things.
Regarding the spamming accusation. Review your contributions yourself:
  • First, you have added DIYART to external links of Paint by number.
  • Second, you have linked a bunch of pages (even creating redirects along the way) to the page with that link. To raise visitors? See a pattern? My appology, if I was all wrong. But you really made your self a revert target by replacing established redirects to the Nonograms. Maybe you can see on the Talk:Nonogram, that the previous name of the Nonogram was actually Paint by numbers and that many people still do not agree with the page rename.
No hard feelings. Btw, what is your affiliation to the DIYART? -- jsimlo(talk|cont) 21:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
