When you edited the Memorandum of Understanding - Migratory Sharks article, you added a link to Congo, which is a disambiguation page rather than an article. If you know from the source material whether it's referring to the Republic of the Congo or the Democratic Republic of the Congo, could you please edit your link to point to the appropriate page? Most common usage referring to the country simply as "Congo" is about Republic of the Congo, not the DRC, but I didn't want to assume that in this case since you're probably more familiar with the topic.

DYK for Migratory Sharks MoU

On 6 March 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Migratory Sharks MoU, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the Memorandum of Understanding on the Conservation of Migratory Sharks, brought into force in 2010, was the first global instrument that dealt with migratory sharks? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Migratory Sharks MoU.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Blah, blah, blah

Tiresome and annoying as it might seem, the officer in charge of the Convention on the Conservation of Migratory Species of Wild Animals does not have authority for the editorial direction of Wikipedia. Wikipedia has its own rules on article naming, found at Wikipedia:Article titles. Application of the concepts presented there indicates that the appropriate name for the article about the international MoU on migratory sharks is Memorandum of Understanding on the Conservation of Migratory Sharks. If you can explain why "Migratory Sharks MoU is a better name, based on Wikipedia's naming rules, please start a discussion on the article's talk page. Unilaterally moving pages over the objections of other users, as you have done, is a form of WP:Edit warring, which is disruptive behavior that will not win you friends or influence people at Wikipedia -- and can lead to your edit access being blocked. --Orlady (talk) 18:23, 12 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
