Feel free to ask me any questions you may have on my talk page. By the way, remember to sign and date your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

Please see Talk:Chemistry about the use of the term "fathers of chemistry". The consensus there is clear, although reached with some difficulty. That consensus is to not use the term. If you disagree, please argue the case on that talk page and not just add it back. --Bduke 06:34, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Footnotes

Say, I just noticed that you added a footnote to the People known as the father or mother of something article, under Galileo. Thanks for doing that. There was just one problem. You ended the footnote with a <ref/> tag, which is XHTML style and incorrect. Footnotes have to end with a </ref> tag, which is (old style) HTML. That's just the way the wiki-software has to have it.

The net effect of the erroneous tag was that all the rest of the article became part of your footnote – the longest footnote I've ever seen! Have a great day. DavidCBryant 12:03, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your recent edits

Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. On many keyboards, the tilde is entered by holding the Shift key, and pressing the key with the tilde pictured. You may also click on the signature button Image:Signature_icon.png located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 07:58, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] February 2008

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. One of the core policies of Wikipedia is that articles should always be written from a neutral point of view. A contribution you made to History of electrical engineering‎ appears to carry a non-neutral point of view, and your edit may have been changed or reverted to correct the problem. Please remember to observe our core policies. Thank you. J.delanoygabsadds 23:08, 22 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] netrality

[edit] April 2008

Hi, the recent edit you made to Timeline of historic inventions has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative edit summary. You may also wish to read the introduction to editing. Thanks.
