Many thanks for your hard work on this task force. I have send an email to User:APH who started the Science Pearls Project long ago. He has not been active for many years, but I thought he ought to know about it. I'm really still on holiday/wikibreak! -- Bduke (Discussion) 08:01, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
So you mean that the page has a subscription-only access? You can list it as a copyvio of the print dictionary, if that's what you mean. Nyttend ( talk) 15:21, 25 February 2012 (UTC)
Hai rockmagnetist,Sorry for my copyright violations.i have no intention to violate copyright law.My only intention is to provide knowledge.you have the right to delete any copyright violated material.But before deleting consider to rephrase content to avoid copyright violation.It is my personal request.I have no access to computer.Only through mobile I do write.I rewrote the cryometer article .Please say your opinion about article on my talk page.So in future I can write articles in my own words. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnanadevm ( talk • contribs) 07:24, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
I see that you moved Counter (physics) to User:Jnanadevm/Counter (physics), giving an edit summary that said "Copyright violation (copy of entry in Oxford dictionary of science)". However, copyright infringement is equally illegal whether or not the illegal copy has "User:" in its title. Copyright infringing pages must be deleted: it is not acceptable to merely move it into userspace. JamesBWatson ( talk) 17:42, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
I am requesting user RockMagnetist to assess my article cryometer about copyright status.So in future i can rewrite my articles to avoid copyright violation.I am also requesting the adminstrators to make a mobile version of wikipedia which must be has all features like desktop version.curren mobile version has no editing,history features.Please reply on my talk page or article talk page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnanadevm ( talk • contribs) 06:42, 27 February 2012 (UTC) Hai,RockMagnetist thanks for your reply.You asked sources for some of my articles. treble (sound) is comletely my work and other editors. cryometer is written from oxford dictionary of science,1999,4th edition as source. photoablation is sourced from website jpslaser.com and another website. gobi manchurian is almost my own work.I am not a native speaker of english.i am from india.so sorry for my bad english.But I only contribute to enlish wikipedia.its my ambition.see my contribution history.I have reverted so many vandalisms — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnanadevm ( talk • contribs) 16:18, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
Hai,rockmagnetist thanks for your complement and your hardwork of research.Google books is not working in my mobile.I am using only basic java phone(sony cedar).It is horrible task to type or search in mobile.It took 60 minuts to write this para in my mobile.I am also agreeing with you about the title change of article cryometer.After completing your article cryogenic thermometry you can redirect cryometer to your article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jnanadevm ( talk • contribs) 10:47, 29 February 2012 (UTC)
Thanks. That is beautiful. -- Bejnar ( talk) 04:46, 13 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi I see you are adding a lot of Ediacaran biota pages to the Cambrian task force, for example Kimberella. Parvancorina is listed at the project page but not on its talk page. They were already in the Palaeontology project so there looks to be an overlap. I wonder why you have them in scope? Some of these have already met the task force target, so perhaps nothing will be done! I am not holding you back, I hope you can improve the articles. Graeme Bartlett ( talk) 10:23, 17 March 2012 (UTC)
"{{Cite" is a template's title, it's a programm. The programmers use capitalization to diferentiate it from the subroutine. The subroutine "title=" is written without capitalization, for instance.

Thank you for the advice. I think this is just part of the Wikipedia experience for better or worse. I will add the links that you recommend. Prof McCarthy ( talk) 16:52, 21 March 2012 (UTC)
Hello RockMagnetist
Thank you for all the tips re wiki editing.
Regarding Pinnacle brochure copyright, I am not sure what copyright applies to a promotional pamphlet that also has been entered as an exhibit to a lawsuit. You mentioned that I removed my comments on SFD talk page, I basically thought I was being too talkative in justifying changes whose merits would appear to be self evident.
Did you ever have a look at the NXT web page and their explanation of how SFD supposedly works ?
Best regards -- Alik 72 ( talk) 20:04, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for a correction in Magnetism. But the coins contain nickel for example. The nickel is ferromagnetic, μ >> μvacuum. The attraction (magnet-coins) is strong. So the coins are ferromagnetic (or ferrimagnetic a better term)? Sorry for bad English. Fizped ( talk) 16:00, 29 March 2012 (UTC)

We appreciate your feeling it was ready to go live. However, one problem we'd meant to resolve before that was how to rename it to Structure validation (macromolecular), with a hatnote or eventually a disambiguation page. Most people who want this article will search using just "structure validation", and with the current title they don't get there at all directly. But many of the hits are to XML schema validation, which may eventually want its own page, and some are to mechanical engineering. Do you have advice on the most robust and feasible way to accomplish this? Dcrjsr ( talk) 14:47, 6 April 2012 (UTC)

Good day
I have entered information on the wikipedia topic "Jeanne d'Arc Basin". It was considered a stub and requested more ino.
I am a first time contibutor to Wikipedia though I have published in peer-reviewed journals. I intend to add figures and core photos later.
I used the "sfn" code to produced a number list of references as I was trying to follow the format of the wikipedia page on "plate tectonics". However, I don't know how to link those notes to the actual references. Could you please provide any guidence on this topic?
Also, when I first go to the Jeanne d'Arc page it first shows the old stub page at the address http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_d'Arc_Basin but if I click on the article tab, it switches to my contribution at the address http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeanne_d%27Arc_Basin The only difference between the adresses is the apostrophe ' is %27 Is this standard or is there something that I have done, have not done, should have done?
All guidence greatly appreciated.

The WikiProject Report would like to focus on WikiProject Geology for a Signpost article. This is an excellent opportunity to draw attention to your efforts and attract new members to the project. Would you be willing to participate in an interview? If so, here are the questions for the interview. Just add your response below each question and feel free to skip any questions that you don't feel comfortable answering. Multiple editors will have an opportunity to respond to the interview questions, so be sure to sign your answers. If you know anyone else who would like to participate in the interview, please share this with them. Have a great day. - Mabeenot ( talk) 22:42, 12 May 2012 (UTC)

Some notes
Do you use Twinkle? It is helpful in reverting vandalism and makes placing warnings on peoples' pages very easy. It also assists editors in creating reports at WP:AIV. Ryan Vesey Review me! 18:24, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
Hiya. With 78.61.59.33 I removed a counter-canter link in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_%28leg%29 You restored the change and indicated:
>There didn't seem any point to removing a perfectly good link. That was the first appearance of the term in the text and therefore the most appropriate place to link it.
I don't see how it's a good link if it redirects to the original article itself? I would justify redirecting to the Counter canter section further below in the article ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter_canter#Counter_canter) but now? Makes no sense to me.

I altered the lead sentence of the Mantle plume article in an attempt to make it clearer. Could you take a look at it? Thanks. -- Bejnar ( talk) 06:09, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
A mantle plume is a hypothetical narrow column in which hot rock rises from the bottom of Earth's mantle to its crust.
I responded to your comments on the linear nature of Birch's law on its Talk page (I had made that edit without logging-in). I just wanted to let you know in case you hadn't seen it.
