Cassini–Huygens

Hi Fcrary, about your revert here, I was basing that off of the first sentence in this source (duplicate file description here [1]). According to it, the image is Cassini's highest resolution natural color depiction of the entire planet and its rings, all in one image. However if the image is not suitable for the article, so be it. Thanks and cheers. Bammesk (talk) 01:30, 14 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

"So-called"

Uhm, "so-called" was for want of better wording. I was trying to make it clear that EPI IS Energetic Particle Instrument. Before that, it only said EPI Hi and EPI Lo. I dug around to find out what EPI is. I fit that information into what was already there; sometimes, my mind sort of freezes when I try to do that (instead of just writing from scratch). Uporządnicki (talk) 19:35, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. I see what you were saying. I read it differently because people in the field have very different ideas of what "energetic" means, and sometimes aren't exactly complementary about it. (E.g. ionospheric physicists who usually don't care about anything over 100 eV and get confused about instruments like the Voyager Low Energy Charged Particle instrument which only went down to about 20 keV, or cosmic ray people who sneer when anything under 10 MeV is called energetic.) Sorry about the confusion. Fcrary (talk) 19:48, 25 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

March 2019

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Shrove Tuesday. Your edits appear to constitute vandalism and have been reverted. If you would like to experiment, please use the sandbox. Repeated vandalism may result in the loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Robofish (talk) 23:26, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, that wasn't me. I was trying to revert the vandalism by 92.237.82.248, whoever that was. See my comment on the Shrove Tuesday talk page. Fcrary (talk) 23:31, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, I think it's back to its previous version now. My mistake, I realised after posting that warning that you were trying to remove vandalism, and accidentally restored it. Robofish (talk) 23:32, 5 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Gender neutral: "Maiden flight" to First Flight

Why was my edit reverted? There was in fact a discussion. I'm having trouble finding the link but I'll come back later and add it if I can. 5Ept5xW (talk) 22:46, 18 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Just a note

'Nuclear fission is a product of modern technology', nothing in that statement says it is only a product of modern technology. In context, the reason that statement especially makes sense is it is a transition from the article that is about the common meaning of what a nuclear reactor is, a piece of modern technology.

COIN

Please exercise more care when filing complaints at noticeboards. All the instructions are written and available; you need only take time and read them. I have issued the user talk notices you were obliged to finish. Chris Troutman (talk) 21:07, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Chris_Troutman, I'm sorry but I looked and could not find that information. I don't think it is reasonable to demand people take an excessive amount of time and effort to participate in Wikipedia. If the information isn't clearly and easily available, you need to be tolerant of people acting in good faith but making mistakes. Fcrary (talk) 21:31, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I point you to the big red box at the top of WP:COIN that says "You must notify any editor who is the subject of a discussion. You may use {{subst:coin-notice}} ~~~~ to do so." If you looked at the history tab for the article, it not only shows who made what edits, but it links to the user's talk page. Even if red, you can paste in the notice. I am being tolerant in that I did it for you and let you know that your complaint is not so important that you cannot slow down and do the job properly. This is a collaborative project, after all. If you don't understand noticeboards, I encourage you to ask someone on their talk page for help. Chris Troutman (talk) 21:38, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Leet's step back. I did not know I could add a comment to a non-existent user page. Actually, I don't know if that might create a user page for them without their knowledge or consent. I am very sure that this level of knowledge about non-content related issues should not be required to participate in Wikipedia. You might like spending time on, and becoming an expert in, this sort of minutia. But that doesn't mean we all have to. Fcrary (talk) 21:52, 7 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Geophysical planet definition

Just thought I'd suggest you might want to amalgamate your most recent comments in the Talk discussion and move them to the bottom so they get picked up. They might get lost where they are (or start multi-threading the discussion which could get rather messy). Physdragon (talk) 22:04, 9 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Moon Treaty

Hello. I re-read your feedback and worked today on improvements and on additional references with closer attention to neutrality. I would be very grateful of your additional feedback, or simply edit the article directly. Cheers, Rowan Forest (talk) 20:09, 11 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry. Thanks for correcting.
