Link to Skeptical science edit

Hello! I noticed you altered a link in Global warming recently so that it now points to a WP article Skeptical science rather than to the Skeptical science website. You have therefore introduced an inaccuracy, in my opinion. Perhaps you would consider altering it back? I believe your edit was in good faith but mistaken. The pointer was intended to show where the image could be found, and also leads the reader to a more rich source of information. --Greenmaven (talk) 07:20, 13 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hi Greenmaven--indeed the edit was in good faith. I noticed the first three images on the Global warming page--with the exception of this one--linked to the respective Wikipedia articles of the sources rather to their external links (which are of course available). That is why I assumed that the Wikipedia articles of the sources are preferable, and the reason why I thought it would be a good idea to update the reference. (When the image in question was originally added to the global warming page, the Skeptical Science page on Wikipedia had not yet been created--now, as of about 3 hours ago, it does exist.)--Dawei20 (talk) 07:23, 13 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Skeptical Science edit

Please note that categorization of articles is mandatory; as long as the article does not have at least one proper category on it, the {{uncat}} tag must remain there. If you want the tag off the article, then find a category that actually exists and add it to the article, because if the page shows up on the uncategorized articles list again I may lock it so that you can't edit it at all.

Bearcat, thank you for categorizing it. I did not revert the edit because of that, I reverted it because your edit led to some bizarre formatting problems (multiple lines of text that did not wrap around the page anymore but overlapped through my pictures and beyond). Preview your original revision to see what I mean. --Dawei20 (talk) 16:23, 14 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

License tagging for File:Akorn.png edit

Thanks for uploading File:Akorn.png. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 00:05, 16 May 2012 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for September 8 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of place names in the United States of Native American origin, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Muskogee. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
