Space Marine Novel

edit

Seeing as you appear to have access to Watson's Space Marine novel, would you be interested in writing an article on the novel itself?

Basically, you'd give a brief intro of the book (title, author, genre, related to 40K universe), have a section with a plot overview, have a section on the characters, and any other little tidbits of use. I think such an article would be an interesting read. -- saberwyn 09:59, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Sure, be happy to.

It's not a great read really (although I keep coming back to the damn thing again and again - my life as a total trainspotter!), but it's got a lot of fantastic fluff.

Any deadlines?

Whenever you feel like getting off your arse will be fine ( :P ), although if you do it in the next few days, I'll help you copyedit it before I go overseas. -- saberwyn 14:05, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Indenting

edit

To indent a paragraph, simply prefix it with a colon. For example,

: This paragraph will be indented

renders as

This paragraph will be intended

More colons will cause further indentation. For other stuff, see How to edit a page. Hope this helps, and no problems about the Imperial Fists edits – good to see another contributor around. Cheers --Pak21 16:55, 30 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

Gas/petrol

edit

I think the general rule with gasoline/petrol is to leave it the way it was originally written by the first major contributor to the article. I assume (without having looked) that gasoline is how it was originally written. I'm not sure where gas/petrol sniffing is most prevalent, and the argument over the word usage is sort of a black hole (see Gasoline). Based on that, I think, it should probably remain gasoline. It doesn't bother me enough to edit war over it, so if you change it back (or have already) I'll leave it ;-) Avruch T 13:06, 26 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

avgas / inhalant

edit

I saw your question on Talk:Inhalant when I was looking for a new home for some text misplaced on avgas.

_______

The lower vapor pressure and slightly different composition of aviation gasoline make it less usable as an inhalant. A remote community in Australia where petrol sniffing was endemic replaced automobile gasoline with aviation gasoline for use in all automobiles.[1] Similar success was achieved with Opal fuel an unleaded, low-aromatic mogas produced by BP Australia.[2]

_______

Perhaps you could add a section on research studies or strategies to reduce abuse. 75.208.197.7 (talk) 02:24, 28 June 2013 (UTC)Reply

  Hello SwordBrother777, and welcome to Wikipedia. All or some of your addition(s) to Richard Johnson Anglican School have been removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without evidence of permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and cite the source using an inline citation. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Help:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • If you own the copyright to the source you want to copy or are a designated agent, you may be able to license that text so that we can publish it here. However, there are steps that must be taken to verify that license before you do. See Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied or translated without attribution. If you want to copy or translate from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Dlohcierekim (talk) 06:03, 9 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
