Frankia alni

Hello my friend. The image caption and the lead seem disconnected somehow. I got all discombobulated -- more than usual. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 11:43, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

I've changed the caption. Is that better? I took the photo in the woods near here where they were easily seen on the surface. The nodules are usually underground. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:56, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Aspergillus sydowii

Hi, I added some material to this article you started. It's an interesting fungus, and well-represented in the literature. I may be able to get microscopy images from work colleagues (probably not soon, but in the long-term). Always happy to see new fungus articles being created! Cheers, Sasata (talk) 20:09, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you. I see the article has expanded dramatically. The fungus came to my attention because of its effects on corals and I will further develop that angle. I will put it forward for DYK as a joint creation in due course. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 04:58, 11 October 2012 (UTC)

Plans

Hello again. I decided that I'm going to instead do fish species instead of invertebrates after mammals. It would be most easier for me. I do encourage you to bring starfish to FA eventually. Hopefully someone will GA review it soon. LittleJerry (talk) 01:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

I will be happy to help with any vertebrate or invertebrate article with a view to FAC if you would like a collaborator. As to the other point you mention, I think starfish and echinoderms in general are very interesting. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 08:29, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, maybe we can work on fish and inverebrates respectively? I think their both underrepresented at the FA level. LittleJerry (talk) 21:24, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

And let's post my reply on your talk page, where the converstion should be had.

Nice try. You frequently write DYK articles that are on the main page, that are largely plagiarized, except where they are absolute rubbish. You do not read the science articles at a level of understanding, and you should stop creating articles on topics you don't understand and stop plagiarizing articles with your rearrange a word here and there then claim a second rate duplicate finder shows that a reversion after yours wasn't a copyvio. I find your copyvios because I have read the sources, then I run them through a plagiarism detector, and you would be flunked in every class you ever took, as you should be. And yet, worse than your plagiarism is your failure to understand the complex biology and simply post anything with the right words in it strung together without meaning.

Cut it out. And look through your history. I am not the first person to bring this to your attention. You've been accused of writing complete nonsense before. And you continue to do it. In spite of admissions on your part that you don't understand what you are writing.

What is wrong with wikipedia that anything goes as long as it makes the main page? -Fjozk (talk) 00:34, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Although you're not claiming to have five dozen degrees, and, in fact, you repeatedly admit you don't understand what you are writing about, you continue to be allowed to post your bad science to the main page.

Please stop writing about biology that you don't know. Here, read this: Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2007-03-05/Essjay. -Fjozk (talk) 00:44, 17 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Cwmhiraeth! Left comments at your Starfish GA, great for an FAC push! Actually, I wanted to have your help at a DYK nomination from Digitalis thapsi (see here). If you have time, you can comment at an FAC I have (see here) , Giant eland. I think your comments will be helpful. Sainsf <^>_{Talk all words} 12:38, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

I've made a comment on the DYK template page. I will have a look at Giant eland and see if there is anything I can usefully add to the comments at FAC. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:41, 18 October 2012 (UTC)

GOCE fall newsletter

Fall Events from the Guild of Copy Editors The Guild of Copy Editors invites you to participate in its events: The October 2012 Copy Edit of the Month Contest is currently in the submissions stage. Submit your best October copy edit there before the end of the month. Submissions end, and discussion and voting begin, on November 1 at 00:00 (UTC). Voting is in progress for the September 2012 Copy Edit of the Month Contest. Everyone is welcome to vote, whether they have entered the contest or not. NEW!! In the week from Sunday 21 October to Saturday 27 October, we are holding a Project Blitz, in which we will copy edit articles tagged with {{copyedit}} belonging to selected project(s). For the first blitz, we'll start with WikiProject Olympics and WikiProject Albums and add more Projects to the blitz as we clear them. The blitz works much like our bimonthly drives, but a bit simpler. Everyone is welcome to take part, and barnstars will be awarded. November 2012 Backlog elimination drive is a month-long effort to reduce the size of the copy edit backlog. The drive begins on November 1 at 00:00 (UTC) and ends on November 30 at 23:59 (UTC). Our goals are to copy edit all articles tagged in 2011 and to complete all requests placed before the end of October. Barnstars will be awarded to anyone who copy edits at least one article, and special awards will be given to the top five in the following categories: "Number of articles", "Number of words", "Number of articles of over 5,000 words", "Number of articles tagged in 2011", and "Longest article". We hope to see you there! – Your drive coordinators: Stfg, Allens, and Torchiest. >>> Blitz sign-up <<<         >>> Drive sign-up <<< To discontinue receiving GOCE newsletters, please remove your name from our mailing list.

Amphibian

Hi, Cwmhiraeth. I know that you intend to take "Amphibian" to FAC, as part of the WikiCup competition. I would be happy to co-nominate the article with you if you think that would be appropriate and helpful. (As long as you get the credit for the WikiCup, of course.) Axl ¤ [Talk] 20:06, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

The WikiCup draws to a conclusion at the end of October. It is too late now to nominate Amphibian with that in mind, but thank you for the offer. It is now the article Frog that I am pinning my hopes on. Whether a decision will be made on that at FAC before the end of October is doubtful. Both Frog and Amphibian would be high scoring articles for the WikiCup because they would both warrant high bonus points. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:15, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Oh, okay. However I am confident that "Frog" will pass FAC within that time. Axl ¤ [Talk] 21:59, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi and thanks for your good words. Yes, it was my first GA review, glad to know I have remarkably improved! Well, Giant eland is doing well, supported by two already but still waiting for more. I have decided to put Dromedary for FAC after its review ends, so if you get time after WikiCup you can turn to that article. By the way, BOL (best of luck) for WikiCup, just a week left!
