Thank you!

I just wanted to say thank you very much for adding a photo to Boreray (sheep). It's hard to find free images of such a rare breed. If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask. :-) Steven Walling • talk 21:25, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 14

Hi. When you recently edited Gross annual value, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Council House (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

Ninth Air Force Edit

Hi there!

Just wanted to let you know I reverted your recent edit to Ninth Air Force that added a category. Due to the (insert adjective) of the Manpower and Organization folks at Hq, USAF, today's Ninth Air Force is unrelated to the one stationed in the UK during WW II. There has been quite a bit of discussion about to handle this (much of it centered on links). If you want more info about this, see Ninth Air Force#Lineage, Talk:Ninth Air Force and Talk:United States Air Forces Central. However, I think your attempt to improve the article is worth a semihemidemibarnstar --Lineagegeek (talk) 23:16, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

WikiProject Wikify: Current Backlog Reduction Plan

Hey, I noticed you marked yourself as a member of WikiProject Wikify and you are currently listed as active. I was wondering if you would be able to assist with our current backlog reduction plan. While traditional drives are more structured month-long sprints by WikiProject Wikify members, there is currently lacking activity within the project and in order to significantly reduce the incredible backlog, members are encouraged to review all articles marked with the Underlinked Template Message - {{underlinked}} - a list of which can be found here - to analyze the worthiness of the template message on the given article. Articles that have nothing to link or are have had wikilinks sufficiently added should have the template removed to clear the backlog and make it easier for editors to find articles in genuine need of wikification. This can be done by any editor; however, all editors should consider joining if they haven't done so already. Thank you!

Joseph Bancroft Reade

What is your source that Joseph Bancroft Reade was one of 17 founded of the Royal Microscopical Society in 1839? I'm not refuting your claim but the source I added doesn't list his name. Thanks. UaMaol (talk) 05:26, 13 February 2018 (UTC)

@Uamaol: I used Parlour aquariums which is one of the references for that paragraph. "Both Bowerbank and Ward were among the seventeen founders, as were Lister himself, Reade, Cornelius Varley, Andrew Ross, and George and Conrad Loddiges."

Hi there! Looks like a couple years back you added a source that indicated that Recilia had been significantly revised, mostly into Maiestas. I'm looking to fix and update the Recilia species articles accordingly, but don't have access to the source linked (this one:Webb, M.D.; Viraktamath, C.A. 2009: Annotated check-list, generic key and new species of Old World Deltocephalini leafhoppers with nomenclatorial changes in the Deltocephalus group and other Deltocephalinae (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Cicadellidae).
