Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Klondike Gold Rush, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Migration (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.

Apollo program

You are not helping improve the quality of the Apollo program article by tag bombing it. Citations are required only for "any material whose verifiability has been challenged or is likely to be challenged"; do you really think everything you tagged is not supportable? If you are as big a fan of the space program as you appear to be, you should know most of these things are true, easily verifiable, and many are verified with citations in the specific article. Every paragraph in an article doesn't necessarily need a cite. If you want to help improve the article, you could maybe look up the easily verifiable ones. If there are any you are really in doubt about, please discuss it on the article's talk page. I appreciate the policy of verifiablity, but I'm asking you to please use discretion.

Costa Concordia disaster - citation edits

Hello, I see you have been very active on the Costa Concordia disaster page, doing extensive clean-ups and edits of the citations. I have actually being going through these same citations (starting at the top), weeding out dead-links, applying and fixing citation templates, removing links to fluffy tabloid articles with little notable new information, merging duplicated citations (giving name to citation, etc.). When I was done with this exercise, I was going to tabulate all the citations, maybe in a table, to help to make sure that the citations are the most relevant to the narrative, when they are called out.

I was trying to understand what you were doing, but since there are so many moves of citations, it is difficult to track what is happening. Presumably you are reviewing the relevance of each citation instance to the cited material, am I right? Maybe if we can combine and coordinate our efforts we can accomplish more, sooner though division of tasks and synchronization of our edits.

Also, I am about to do some restructuring of the article and to cleave-out the section on the wreck recovery and site restoration. I think this is important, because I think we both understand that there will shortly be an explosion of editing on this section, in particular, as soon as the begin to get ready to roll the wreck and to attempt to re-float it. So, obviously, the more we can accomplish in terms of clean-up before then, the better.

Orphaned non-free media (File:Belfast blitz.jpg)

Thanks for uploading File:Belfast blitz.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:05, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

July 2013

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Klondike Gold Rush may have broken the syntax by modifying 4 "[]"s. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • for more equipment, would use slides carved in the ice near the stairs.{{sfn|Winslow|1952|p=116}}}}]]
  • for the ice on [[Yukon River]] to break up, May 1898]]

Comet

Do you want to cooperate to improve Comet as much as possible? I'd like to have a go at getting an article to WP:GA or WP:FA, and you've made some edits to it recently. Just wondering. Regards. Jamesx12345 21:11, 30 July 2013 (UTC)

  • Thank you for asking, I would like to help but I don't have any books and the article needs citations from high quality sources. It deserves it though, and after all, it is a former FA. Soerfm (talk) 23:21, 30 July 2013 (UTC)
