Your user name and your edits edit

  1. WP:SPA are looked upon with some concern by the established editing community - if you are here simply to impose your version of wombat issues on WP you may find yourself blocked
  2. Reverting others edits without discussing on a talk page as to why and how your edits are improving the article - is essential
  3. Not talking, and reverting can be seen as an issue that may see you blocked if you cannot explain your edits with WP:AGF and WP:CIVILITY


You can help by becoming familiar with the signs of mange in wombats and reporting it to the Wombat Protection Society of Australia or calling your local wildlife group for assistance. Drive carefully in areas where wombats may cross and check for a Joey in pouch or that may have been thrown from the pouch or nearby. You can call a wildlife group to do this if the wombat was female and you don't feel confident to check the pouch yourself. You could also become a member of the Wombat Protection Society of Australia to support ongoing research and programs protecting this charismatic little Aussie battler!

Is not encyclopediac and breaks a number of the basic principles of what an online encyclopedia is about - see WP:NOT and WP:ABOUT to get a handle on that - also read the first article welcome below very carefully if you wish to edit in the future SatuSuro 00:42, 3 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

SatuSuro beat me to welcoming you! I'd like to apologise for reverting you so easily, bit trigger-happy of me! Chipmunkdavis (talk) 00:26, 3 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

New talk item edit

Down here

Hi there, it's the first time I've used this. I'm not sure why my contributions to the page have been removed. As a rescuer and carer common wombats are referred to more correctly as bared nosed or hairy nosed. I also added info on issues regarding wombats and how to help which were removed. My contributions were not vandalism and were factual. (unsigned)

Please learn to sign - and please read all the info on this page before editing again factual may be one thing but placing advertising in the middle of an article is not on. SatuSuro 00:48, 3 March 2011 (UTC)Reply


Please forgive my stupidity... Advertising? A not for profit charity group activly working to educate and protect wildlife. Its a useful link for anyone with an injured, sick or orphaned wombat or anyone researching wombats. If the link were the issue then why not simple remove that.
