			:I have my eye on fixing up the Micronauts-related links but it's confusing to me how to proceed and I do not know who else to turn to.
			*The disambig help page says that "characters and concepts from these other fictions that need disambiguation should use tags that refer to their home property." There are two ''Micronauts'' characters who are disambed (Micronaut) while I would expect (Micronauts) as per the franchise. Are they at the correct location or should they be moved?

			:Apologies if I'm bothering, but I saw you were an admin and since you thanked me for link fixing, would it be possible you could do three I can't access? Twin Twist, black hole, and energon grid each have 1 link remaining from a locked page, so I can't go in to fix those myself. Twin Twist, at least, seems one that "has" to be fixed.
