Daniel J. Layton IV is very dedicated to supplying the world with accurate knowledge of his family history. This loyal reader of wikipedia would like to take a moment and caution Daniel that it is, however, an open-source encyclopedia.
What a rapid response! The particular name of "~" by the way is a tilde. I see that you've also listed yourself as being very good at German, if I understand the translation correctly. Keep up the good work with the excellent articles, any really exciting ones you've translated from German to English? (or are you doing it the other way around?) Stdeve 21:46, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
I am just making sure you are aware of the proper name for everything, including tildes, because you obviously have such a great appreciation for knowledge. And yes, of course I remember the lighthouses! Great articles. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to writing an article of my own. Perhaps on the House of Waris (currently without an article), but perhaps not. Any suggestions? Stdeve 03:20, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Basically, just ask the others if they agree, if they do, you can move the text.

Wikipedia claims to be an encyclopedia, and as such it aught to read like one and not like a religious tract. There is a lot of subjective hysteria in the world today about how living things are devastating the world, and destroying biodiversity. There is no scientific evidence that would lead one to adopt such a viewpoint. This kind hysteria has no place in an encyclopedia.
Introduced plants are neither good nor bad, they just are. Every introduced species brings good to the receiving ecosystem, and it changes the ecosystem in some way. Such changes are neither good nor bad, they are just changes.
Wikipedia aims for a neutral point of view. And terms like infestation, invasion, etc are not neutral terms, they are strongly biased words. Words like naturalised, population, colony are neutral.
An example: In a section about making soap from Kudzu I deleted the perjorative biased unverifiable phrase, "which has devestated the southern usa". The phrase was just plain mean spirited, and had nothing to do with soapmaking. The phrase is certainly not neutral nor verifiable. The ecology of the southern usa today is basically the same today as it was before the introduction of kudzu. A few niche microenviornments here and there might grow kudzu from time to time, but it is hardly the huge problem the demagogues would have us believe.
Too bad I didn't think about this much earlier--I had done my master's candidacy paper on this species and its invasiveness and had a ton of references sitting around in a binder that I recycled just before I moved a couple weeks ago. I still might have some pdf files laying around that aren't cited in the article. Do you have access to JSTOR? There are some articles on there that aren't cited yet:
Well, and I have a list of references I used for my paper that might give you more places to search. There are also a few newspaper sources that I don't see cited, stating Heisy's desire to prove ailanthone is a product that would do well on the commercial market and vision of A. altissima farming efforts to harvest the ailanthone.

I have to say, and I'm sorry I have to say it, that (at least as far as I can see from the list and Shenandoah National Park), it is difficult to see a good reason to have this list on its own. I mean, why specifically amphibians for this park? It doesn't seem to have anything peculiar about it when it comes to amphibians (unlike if had a recognized large or unusual selection. If it does, it doesn't mention it in either article).
I could see variations along the lines of "amphibians found in Virginia protected areas" (or more generally "amphibians of Virginia"), or a "List of animals species in Shenandoah National Park", but this particular list looks (to me, anyway) too strictly defined to really be usefully encyclopedic unless you work it as a more detailed element within such a set with a less detailed master list.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Founders234.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

You asked why this image should be deleted. It is because it also exists on Commons, and there's no reason for it to be in both places. Cheers, Fang Aili talk 22:37, 8 December 2007 (UTC)
I have heard about C. benghalensis having underground flowers. Are they self pollinated? Shyamal ( talk) 04:20, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

Very weird - it took me to the wrong article, but seems to be working now. Guettarda ( talk) 21:38, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Founders234.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 ( talk) 00:28, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
Well done again! Bencherlite Talk 00:26, 20 February 2008 (UTC)
