Deepak Chopra

Deepak Chopra is not an authoritative figure in the field of marine biology, and any facile quotes he has made do not belong in Wikipedia articles. Continuing to add such nonsense is likely to be considered disruptive. --Stemonitis (talk) 05:05, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

This edit is not helpful. Editor Stemonitis requested you take this matter to Talk:Sea cucumber to seek consensus before trying to add this info again. Please comply with Wikipedia guidelines. --candyworm (talk) 13:49, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

Sangihe Plate

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Sangihe Plate, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.globalwarmingart.com/wiki/Wikipedia:Halmahera_Plate.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details.

The fact that the bot found a similarity to a mirror of Wikipedia should remind you that you need to attribute copied text, even from another article. Please read Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. VernoWhitney (talk) 03:18, 7 November 2010 (UTC)

Army of Occupation (Mexico)

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a search with the contents of Army of Occupation (Mexico), and it appears to be very similar to another Wikipedia page: Army of Occupation. It is possible that you have accidentally duplicated contents, or made an error while creating the page— you might want to look at the pages and see if that is the case. If you are intentionally trying to rename an article, please see Help:Moving a page for instructions on how to do this without copying and pasting. If you are trying to move or copy content from one article to a different one, please see Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia and be sure you have acknowledged the duplication of material in an edit summary to preserve attribution history.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. CorenSearchBot (talk) 02:46, 27 November 2010 (UTC)

FYI

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Army of Occupation a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 19:34, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Your picture of the Colorado river

This picture seems to appear on the web in a lot of places: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:ColoradoRiverAtSanLuis.jpg Since most of them quote the Wikipedia caption verbatim, I guess they are mostly getting it from Wikipedia. I am trying to reconcile this picture with what I see on Google Maps. It doesn't help that I can't seem to find the San Luis Colorado-Colonia Miguel Aléman Bridge. Is this the location where you took to photo? 32.705402,-114.728889 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pciszek (talk • contribs) 21:45, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Replying about the bridge, don't know how reply works

You write: The San Luis Rio Colorado-Colonia Miguel Aléman Bridge is a toll bridge that connects San Luis Colorado in Sonora with Colonia Miguel Aléman in Baja California Norte along the mainline of the Carretera Federal 2 (MX 2). The actual bridge is at 32º29'42.37"N 114º50'08.19"W.

So, the location of the photo is not on the national border? The caption of the photo, "Colorado River as it exits the United States into Mexico beneath the San Luis Colorado-Colonia Miguel Aléman Bridge", seemed to imply that the picture was taken on the US/Mexico border. People have been using the picture to imply that the Colorado River doesn't make it into Mexico from the US. What I think I see on Google Maps is the diversion dam on the border, which diverts the river from its original course to a different course within Mexico. Is the reason there is no water in your picture that the river has been moved elsewhere, or that the river has ceased to exist before it gets to the US/Mexico border?
