Style remarks[edit]

Thank you for creating the article cp index and related. Note that I moved it to this name from Cp Index, as on Wikipedia the style calls for capitals to be used sparingly, only at the beginning of sentence and in proper names. I also did some minor formatting on that and cpk index and Process capability. Looking at what I did (by checking the history of those articles) may give you a few more hints about style. :) Cheers, Oleg Alexandrov (talk) 04:38, 28 December 2005 (UTC)Reply[reply]

SCOTUS law clerks[edit]

Very ambitious... I'm looking forward to seeing it completed. Be mindful of the need to disambiguate, btw; I noticed a link to "John Adams." Postdlf 22:36, 6 March 2006 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Yes, a very interesting article. I'm more into the statistical type of article, but am looking forward to more articles of all types in this area. NoSeptember 21:55, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

Adding an element in a table to the TOC[edit]

Hi, I'm responding to your question at the Wikipedia:New contributors' help page.

Yes it is possible to add a table element to the TOC. Basically you just start the heading on a new line in the table (not after the usual "|"). I have set up some examples in my sandpit, feel free to play about there.

What I am confused about is using ((SCOTUS clerk)) in the list rather than just putting in the data normally. Perhaps there is a reason I'm not aware of?--Commander Keane 08:51, 17 June 2006 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Spirangles[edit]

Hi - I see the work you've done to improve this article. As it stands right now, this is really still just a definition. As you may know, Wikipedia is not a dictionary, so you may want to consider adding more to it in terms of encyclopedic content. i.e. - where are they used (optometry tests?) why are they important, who invented them, etc...    7   talk Δ |   03:59, 16 July 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Hi Pmaccabe, thanks for the review and comment on Muisca bitaeniata.

Pterygodermatites peromysci[edit]

Hello Pmaccabe. This is user "Adron Ung" thanks for posting the taxonomy of my Pterygodermatites peromysci parasite. I was intending to do that, but I wasn't sure how to write it out. I would like to upload a few figures to the page, but I am not sure how to do that since this is my first article. It's somewhat difficult to compare knowledge of this parasite to others because the Center for Disease Control (CDC) has not posted anything about it. I saw the species description was vacant so I filled it up with some content. I hope to edit the heading, thought it's somewhat hard to describe the scientific community's knowledge of this parasitic nematode. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Adron Ung (talkcontribs) 03:29, 4 May 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]


DataUSA feedback[edit]

I appreciate the heads up regarding this page. This is my first foray into page creation territory. In my ignorance I published this rather than developing the full page first-- something I've been gathering is probably the best practice. I'm creating this page for a friend's company I often collaborate with... the website went live this month and I've been interested in becoming more active in the wiki world so thought I'd create an entry. As of now I'm trying to delete/hide the page I created so I can finish putting it together. As far as I've gathered, I shouldn't be in 'promotional' territory as there is nothing for sale nor is there any revenue going to anyone for use of the site (it is a free, open-source development project) plus it is my plan to have this page be a child to a future page for the developers company (Datawheel, LLC). Let me know if I'm not on the right track. Definitely would welcome any advice or feedback. Thanks!Mattrdini (talk) 20:29, 27 April 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

No problem, that is why I wanted to comment, I don't see any reason to think that it wouldn't be true, but there is no verifiability to any of the sources, which for Wikipedia is a problem. The best thing would be to find some coverage or articles about those more notable contributions. This reference[1] from the 4-4-0 article might be wise to include on his article, you could even add an additional reference to this which seems to be an online copy of it. http://himedo.net/TheHopkinThomasProject/TimeLine/IndustrialRevAmerica/SteamEngines/JohnWhite.htm. It has some additional details in there like a supposed patent date of Feb 5, 1836. I'd say referencing the patent itself if you can find it along with this information would pretty clearly establish reliable sources. Phil (talk) 16:13, 22 May 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]

User group: New Page Reviewer[edit]

Hello Pmaccabe.

Based on the patrols you made of new pages during a qualifying period in 2016, your account has been added to the "New page reviewers" user group, allowing you to review new pages and mark them as patrolled, tag them for maintenance issues, or in some cases, tag them for deletion. The list of articles awaiting review is located at the New Pages Feed.

New page reviewing is a vital function for policing the quality of the encylopedia, if you have not already done so, you must read the new tutorial at New Pages Review, the linked guides and essays, and fully understand the various deletion criteria. If you need more help or wish to discuss the process, please join or start a thread at page reviewer talk.

The reviewer right does not change your status or how you can edit articles. If you no longer want this user right, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. In case of abuse or persistent inaccuracy of reviewing, the right can be revoked at any time by an administrator. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 01:34, 19 November 2016 (UTC)Reply[reply]
