Do you have a source? I've never heard of a fern gametophyte growing as a submerged aquatic. -- EncycloPetey ( talk) 04:31, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on Llavea, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a redirect to a nonexistent page.
If you can fix this redirect to point to an existing Wikipedia page, please do so and remove the speedy deletion tag. However, please do not remove the speedy deletion tag unless you also fix the redirect. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. A Stop at Willoughby ( talk) 05:44, 12 December 2009 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on William Dunlop Brackenridge requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{
hangon}}
to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on
the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact
one of these admins to request that they
userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

The article Georg Hans Emmo Wolfgang Hieronymus has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{
dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{
dated prod}}
will stop the
Proposed Deletion process, but other

Hi, after seeing one of your articles at newpage patrol, I was surprised to see that an editor who has contributed quite so many articles as you over such a long period hadn't already been approved as an wp:Autoreviewer. So I've taken the liberty of rectifying that. Also whilst I'm here would you like me to restore Philip Dowell and move it to a sandbox for you? That way you could resume editing and move it to article space when its finished. Ϣere SpielChequers 23:32, 3 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi Jaknouse; I wonder if you would be kind enough to use edit summaries a bit more. [1] I know it can be a lot of trouble, but I would be grateful if you would consider it. Best wishes and please ignore my suggestion if it is unhelpful, Walter Siegmund (talk) 06:30, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I followed the single-genus classification of Braggins & Large (2004) in Tree Ferns. mgiganteus1 ( talk) 23:25, 12 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi, I have no opinion (at least, not without doing some research) on whether Isoetopsida should be there or at Selaginellopsida, but moving it by cut-and-paste, as you seem to have done, is not the way to move a page. See Help:Moving a page (search for "Do not move or rename a page by copying/pasting its content" and also see the sections on redirects and such). In this case I think maybe you would need an administrator to perform the move, but that's no big deal; that's what WP:RM is for. Kingdon ( talk) 02:45, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
Hi, you recently changed the information in the genus template for the entry I generated a few months ago for the cliff fern. I understand your intentions in doing so, and see what you have done. However, you don't address the fact that in the article associated with the template I explain specifically why the classification you revised is now considered outdated and I provide an external reference to a scientific journal to verify this. Your revision back to the "old school" classification scheme does not include any explanation (other than the use of the word "various") which, to me, feels a little too brief for a change that changes a fundamental and, as far as I know, contrary-to-conventional-scientific-knowledge fact about this plant.
If I am in the wrong here, please let me know. I love being corrected when I am wrong, and I will admit up front that I am not a professional botanist, merely a "professional amateur". For the moment I will have faith that you completed your revision in full knowledge of the argument that occurs along with my citation but for some reason left it in the article...(?). Can you explain this better for me? I am confused. Thanks. KDS4444 Talk 08:18, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
Remember redirects are #REDIRECT [[Target page name]]. I had to correct a few you made incorrectly. Thanks. Gigs ( talk) 16:21, 15 January 2010 (UTC)
Please provide a reference for an authority who has circumscribed the family in this way. The only paper cited on the page places this group as a subfamily of the Pteridaceae. -- EncycloPetey ( talk) 03:28, 21 January 2010 (UTC)
Please remove the personal attack against me that you made on your user page and at Talk:Starved_Rock_State_Park#Plum_Island_Bald_Eagle_Refuge with this edit. Such statements violate WP:NPA and WP:AGF and could get you blocked. You might also want to read WP:BRD to see how to more effectively interact with other editors. Thank you. Novaseminary ( talk) 01:26, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
You also might benefit from taking a look at WP:INCITE for how to properly cite sources. Adding inline ELs as you have done on several articles lately is not the way sources are cited on WP. Novaseminary ( talk) 01:57, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

I added a reference to Riddle State Nature Preserve and removed the prod tag. If other scholarly articles have been published about Hawk Woods or the preserve, please add them as references.

You might want to check out WP:CITE, I've noticed a few of you edits don't have any. Here is a page with easy use templates Wikipedia:Citation templates.

I noticed a slight article from WOUB Radio/TV (NPR) mentioning the Forest. I added it to your article, but you may wish to review. Delete it if you wish. It adds little additional information, but seems to confirm some. Tkotc ( talk) 08:16, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

If you get the chance, would you be willing to help illustrate National Register of Historic Places listings in Athens County, Ohio?

I've started a new initiative to try to improve the coverage of ferns in the northeastern US: see Wikipedia:WikiProject Pteridophytes/Northeastern America Initiative. You've probably contributed the majority of the existing content covered by the project; I'm hoping to attract a few more interested editors to help with these articles.

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) 20:05, 16 April 2012 (UTC) |

Yes, the problem is "I certainly release the image to the public domain, but am not sure how to approach this, since I am not the author of the CONTENT of the photo". According to participants of discussion on the commons image (unfortunately) should be deleted so I nominated it for deletion. And, please use User talk:Bulwersator rather than User:Bulwersator to ask questions. Bulwersator ( talk) 15:44, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Halesia monticola, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page George ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thank you for uploading File:Whiteoakchampion.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. B ( talk) 17:28, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
