[edit] Geneticist

Hi Nichole, I hadn't actually read geneticist, I must have just noticed the lack of boldface on the title when using pop-ups. I've had a read and it's pretty good really. Perhaps you could mention a few of the most well known geneticists, or even just a picture of one. References are the only other area it's missing, not that an article like that needs many.

We are without a good many pages on the career associated with a certain field, many of which simply redirect to that field. It is quite difficult to write on them without going into too much detail on the field itself though, which the geneticist article handles well. Hope that was of help to you; let me know if you need any help with editing etc. Richard001 04:12, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Help with images

Hi again. We can add images by typing the right code - Help:Images and other uploaded files should provide a good introduction to the subject. There are other more specific help pages as well, I think. Basically I just use the basic code [[Image:Image name|right|thumb|Caption here.]]

Sometimes you'll want to use left in place of right, or leave out the thumb for an unbordered image (see for example Avogadro's law. You can resize by adding |200px to specify the pixel size of the image, another tool I use a lot. I like to add images to empty looking articles and I also often add a link to commons using {{commons|Page name}} or {{commonscat|category name}}. There's lot's of other features too, not that I know many of them. Just use the preview button or sandbox until you get something that looks right, and take a look at the help pages or ask me for help if you're still unsure. Richard001 04:26, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
