  On 30 August, 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article McGregor Lake, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference edit

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer have them marked as minor by default.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. If you are familiar with the contents of WP:MINOR, and believe that it is still beneficial to the encyclopedia to have all your edits marked as such by default, then this discussion will give you the details you need to continue with this functionality indefinitely. If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:04, 14 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

Disambiguation link notification for October 7 edit

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Bill Turnbull, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page The Telegraph (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.

Hwy43 : Thank you for identifying the potential copyright infringement, it was unintentional. Part of the primary source material was produced by the Government of Alberta, and as such, was deemed permissible to reproduce. The submission was edited before submitting to make it more succinct plus additional facts were added (the family farmed for four generations; they produced grain; Minister Carlier lived in Regina and Saskatoon before moving to Alberta) which do not appear in the government document used as the source. (This information is known personally by this contributor, who has known Oneil Carlier for 40 years.) Hwy43, I appreciate your diligence and tireless efforts in making Wikipedia a responsible source for information. I have very limited experience with Wikipedia and defer to your superior judgement.
