Editing Wikipedia

edit

I noticed you added some information to the article Host (biology). That's fine, but you have added it to the lead, the introductory part of the article before the index. This opening paragraph is meant to be a summary of the rest of the article, so I have moved it to a more appropriate place. I was about to reformat the reference when somebody else did it, but the above "welcome" will enable you to learn how to format references properly yourself. Finally, I noticed you had copied the text of the abstract almost word for word. You need to know that Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously, and when creating or expanding articles, you should completely rewrite the information from the source using your own words.

You also need to rewrite the information you added to the Tibetan antelope article because it is also a copyright infringement. It's difficult getting started at Wikipedia, but if you need some help, please ask. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:30, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sir, Thank you for suggestion. I will take care about that. My english is weak. (Someone has corrected the information which I had uploaded in Tibetan Antelope page.) Laiya K (talk) 19:03, 22 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

shield bug paper

edit

Hi. If you saw my note on that, the problem was this: (1) the paper only experimentally tested a single species of scutellerid bug, so I put that information into the WP article on that particular species - see Tectocoris diophthalmus. Extrapolating a study of a single species to an entire superfamily is a very tentative and speculative thing to do. The only thing that paper says about other bugs in the superfamily is that the adults and nymphs are no more similar to one another than randomness would dictate, and that is hardly significant enough to be cited, especially since it ignores whether or not the same is true for other insects - and I think you'll agree that the differences between a caterpillar and a butterfly are far more dramatic, so finding that bug nymphs are not identical to the adults is a really trivial observation. Also, consider the difference between these two phrases: "The bugs change colour as they grow" versus "The color of the bugs changes as they grow". These wordings are not the same, because the former phrasing implies an active process, which is NOT how the process works, while the latter phrasing correctly implies that the process is passive.

Thanks for correcting me. I liked the explanation that you have given. Laiya K (talk) 18:43, 26 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
