I hope you enjoy editing and being a Wikipedian. Although we all make mistakes, please keep in mind what Wikipedia is not.

We hope you stick around, and make sure you enjoy yourself! Cheers, riana_dzasta 06:08, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
By the way, I noticed you've been doing some good work on chemistry articles - have you considered helping out at one of the projects on chemistry? The main project is this one, with various offshoots and daughter projects. Hope to see you around there. Cheers! riana_dzasta 06:08, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 13:54, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Your user page
I made a small change to your userpage. It was showing up in the category Chemistry pages needing pictures. I think it is now the way that you intended it to be, but if not please just revert my change. --Ed (Edgar181) 14:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Sorry About That
Re your message: No worries. That vandal was going so fast blanking sections that it was hard to keep up. With several of us reverting things, occasionally we get tangled up. No worries. =) Thanks for helping out. -- Gogo Dodo 02:16, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Chemical images
Shoyrudude555 thanks for making and uploading the chemical images that I recently requested. Also, I've not hunted around for the policy on this, but I think it is to avoid pixilation of the image, people tend to upload much larger images than you currently are (e.g. see 1,2,4-Trichlorobenzene). If you get a chance can you re-uplaod your images accordingly -- many thanks Quantockgoblin 13:45, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
- Just to follow up on the above, please see Style guide for drawing molecules. -- Quantockgoblin 23:55, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Alkoxide is shown incorrectly
Alkoxides are not unusually simple ions and never monomeric. Please take steps to read about their structural chemistry otherwise you are misleading readers. It is common error (mine too) to assume that ions adopt monomeric structures.--Smokefoot 13:50, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- thanks for the note. I agree that its maybe best to oversimplify alkoxide for the functional group article. Best wishes.--Smokefoot 22:28, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
- shoy - You asked me to raise any problems with structures that I've seen, on your talk page. I believe that the Methoxy drawing would be more chemically correct if it was drawn bent (e.g. see methanol image). Oxygen like carbon is sp3 hybridized and thus tetrahedral, two bonds and two lone pairs which togther form a tetrahedral structure. Please also see my note above. Best regards -- Quantockgoblin 01:37, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
