I created a four-letter acronym page for "OARS" and you redirected it to the Olympia Amateur Radio Society article, which is OK, I guess, but my thought was that there might be other uses for the acronym that require a disambiguation page of some sort. I was on the hunt for others (in Google), and found a few candidates, but then came back to find the OARS four-letter acronym to have been whisked away.
I did not realize your intent when I made it a redirect, and you're certainly more than welcome to edit the page. I do not oppose the creation of an disambiguation page, just didn't realize that there was further plans for the page.

The honeydew color is the agreed upon standard for the "did not advance" sections: see Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Olympics#Format for the Category:Nations at the 2008 Summer Olympics articles. The red color is too harsh, particularly when the row spans several columns. If you object to this standard, please bring it up at WikiProject Olympics.

Oh yes, no problem. It's hard to keep track of the trends. Right now, we prefer not to use harsh colors for dna because it can get very distracting on entire lines. The US and China pages should be the same right now in that regard. Many thanks for helping to update the article.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Lowlands (festival), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Passenger (band). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Greetings
It seems contributed to women's rights related articles.
Please do visit Draft:Avret Esir Pazarları an article about commoner women's slavery in Ottoman times. I have been looking for more contribution and expansion to Draft:Avret Esir Pazarları from editors who have been contributing to women's rights related articles. Kindly do help expand the article Draft:Avret Esir Pazarları, if you find yourself interested.
