Your signature[edit]

Hello Komododragonfan16. Just to let you know, your signature inserts code into the page were you sign, instead of the signature you want, which is Kommyboy16. To correct this, check the "Sign my name exactly as shown" box below your signature in your preferences. Thanks! --The High Fin Sperm Whale 22:39, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I have copied your text you put in. My sig's now fixed. Kommyboy16. 22:43, 19 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I think you might have made a typo in your signature, because the bit that is meant to go to your talk page goes to a nonexistent page instead. Regards. Reyk _YO! 11:51, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Fixed it Komodoboy16 11:52, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The signature part saying "boy" in yellow is almost unreadable to me. Wikipedia:Signatures#Notes and references mentions a recommendation of a contrast ratio of at least 5:1. The ratio at the linked site is 1:1 for yellow (#FFFF00) versus Wikipedia's normal background (#F8FCFF). PrimeHunter (talk) 12:11, 20 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Be careful with what you label as vandalism[edit]

I made a few edits before I realized that Eukarya was unnecessary. Labeling them as vandalism [1] is inappropriate. --Ronz (talk) 19:01, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Announcement[edit]

Hello! I'm The Arbiter, one of the coordinators for WikiProject Zoo. I am proud to announce the launch of a new portal: Portal:Zoos and Aquariums! ZooPro, ZooFari, and I worked hard to create a new portal for information on zoos, aquariums, and the associated projects and articles on Wikipedia. If you could head on over, take a look at our work, and maybe learn some more about zoos and Wikiproject Zoo, it would be great! Cheers and Happy Editing!

Science lovers wanted![edit]

Science lovers wanted!

Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the Smithsonian Institution Archives until June! One of my goals as resident, is to work with Wikipedians and staff to improve content on Wikipedia about people who have collections held in the Archives - most of these are scientists who held roles within the Smithsonian and/or federal government. I thought you might like to participate since you are interested in the sciences! Sign up to participate here and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our to-do list. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the request page, and of course, if you share your successes at the outcomes page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! Sarah (talk) 19:33, 16 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
