Your recent edits
[edit]Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you must sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You may also click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address 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) 13:14, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Please avoid using multiple copies of the same reference within an article, as you did on Greenergy, as this clutters the reference list. Better is to create one reference on a given page and cite it as many times as is necessary. To do this, use the name attribute of the ref tag. The first time you cite a reference, define it as
<ref name="refname">Reference content</ref>
and then, when you want to cite the same reference later in the same article, just use
<ref name="refname"/>
where refname is a name of your choice. Good luck.
Also, I've just cleaned up the logo image and uploaded it as a PNG. JPEG format should generally be used only for photographic images. Though as I can't at the moment find a logo of that size on the site, I can't tell whether you just copied the file straight from there. — Smjg (talk) 16:44, 13 August 2011 (UTC)
