|Hi! I'm serving as the wikipedian-in-residence at the [[Wikipedia talk:GLAM/SIA|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 [[Wikipedia:GLAM/SIA/Participants|here]] and dive into articles needing expansion and creation on our [[Wikipedia:GLAM/SIA/Outcomes/Todo|to-do list]]. Feel free to make a request for images or materials at the [[Wikipedia:GLAM/SIA/Requests|request page]], and of course, if you share your successes at the [[Wikipedia:GLAM/SIA/Outcomes|outcomes]] page you will receive the SIA barnstar! Thanks for your interest, and I look forward to your participation! [[User:SarahStierch|Sarah]] ([[User talk:SarahStierch|talk]]) 00:49, 17 April 2012 (UTC) |

Revision as of 01:19, 18 September 2012
Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, Tigershrike! My name is Ryan, aka Acetic Acid. I noticed that you were new and haven't received any messages yet. I just wanted to see how you were doing. Wikipedia can be a little intimidating at first, since it uses different formatting than other sites that use HTML and CSS. In the long run, though, you'll find that the WikiSyntax is a lot easier and faster than those other ways. Here are a few links to get you started:
- How to edit a page
- Editing, policy, conduct, and structure tutorial
- Picture tutorial
- How to write a great article
There are a lot of policies and guides to read, but I highly recommend reading over those first. If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page. Please be sure to sign your name on Talk using four tildes (~~~~) to produce your name and the current date, along with a link to your user page. This way, others know when you left a message and how to find you. It's easier than having to type out your name, right? :)
I hope you enjoy contributing to Wikipedia. We can use all the help we can get! Have a nice day. Sincerely, Ryan. 12:00, August 1, 2005 (UTC)
Thanks for the enlightening information on a bird I really wanted to know more about. They're everywhere in Hawaii! I award you this mid-sized gray asterik of Zebra Dove knowledgeability: *. Spend it wisely. -Bordello 16:25, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

Hi, you added the interwikilink to Ephraim Amu. Do you speak Ewe or do you know Paa.kwesi, or both? Thanks, — mark ✎ 11:59, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

Refugia and Selenidera
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c7/Selenidera.png/300px-Selenidera.png)
Your interest in the Selenidera species and its range has prompted me to make a free version of the range map. Right now I've got a range map without the refugia included in the Selenidera article. I'm working on a much better new map for the refugia article, when I've finished I'll upload it to the Selenidera article too. Since it is pretty easy to make maps copyright free, I think it is the best thing to do. I'll update the map in a couple of days. Here is the temporary working version: --Cody.Pope 06:27, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
This article is still the subject of much controversy. If you could find time to look at it and perhaps make a contribution to the debate, it would be appreciated. Deb 14:47, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
Have you ever been banned from the Interwebs?
I'm about to be... or so says an IRC operator. You wer on Recent Changes, so I assume you were active.
Anyway, whatever.

Oxford Wikimania 2010 and Wikimedia UK v2.0 Notice
Hi,
As a regularly contributing UK Wikipedian, we were wondering if you wanted to contribute to the Oxford bid to host the 2010 Wikimania conference. Please see here for details of how to get involved, we need all the help we can get if we are to put in a compelling bid.
We are also in the process of forming a new UK Wikimedia chapter to replace the soon to be folded old one. If you are interested in helping shape our plans, showing your support or becoming a future member or board member, please head over to the Wikimedia UK v2.0 page and let us know. We plan on holding an election in the next month to find the initial board, who will oversee the process of founding the company and accepting membership applications. They will then call an AGM to formally elect a new board who after obtaining charitable status will start the fund raising, promotion and active support for the UK Wikimedian community for which the chapter is being founded.
You may also wish to attend the next London meet-up at which both of these issues will be discussed. If you can't attend this meetup, you may want to watch Wikipedia:Meetup, for updates on future meets.
We look forward to hearing from you soon, and we send our apologies for this automated intrusion onto your talk page!

AfD nomination of List of endangered animal species
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
An editor has nominated one or more articles which you have created or worked on, for deletion. The nominated article is List of endangered animal species. We appreciate your contributions, but the nominator doesn't believe that the article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in his/her nomination (see also Wikipedia:Notability and "What Wikipedia is not").
Your opinions on whether the article meets inclusion criteria and what should be done with the article are welcome; please participate in the discussion(s) by adding your comments to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of endangered animal species. Please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
You may also edit the article during the discussion to improve it but should not remove the articles for deletion template from the top of the article; such removal will not end the deletion debate.
Please note: This is an automatic notification by a bot. I have nothing to do with this article or the deletion nomination, and can't do anything about it. --Erwin85Bot (talk) 01:05, 21 February 2010 (UTC)

You are now a Reviewer
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a0/Wikipedia_Reviewer.svg/130px-Wikipedia_Reviewer.svg.png)
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 17:53, 18 June 2010 (UTC)
Autopatrolled
![](https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/a2/Wikipedia_Autopatrolled.svg/175px-Wikipedia_Autopatrolled.svg.png)
Hello, this is just to let you know that I have granted you the "autopatrolled" permission. This won't affect your editing, it just automatically marks any page you create as patrolled, benefiting new page patrollers. Please remember:
- This permission does not give you any special status or authority
- Submission of inappropriate material may lead to its removal
- You may wish to display the {{Autopatrolled}} top icon and/or the {{User wikipedia/autopatrolled}} userbox on your user page
- If, for any reason, you decide you do not want the permission, let me know and I can remove it
- If you have any questions about the permission, don't hesitate to ask. Otherwise, happy editing! Acalamari 18:31, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

New fern initiative
I have laid down plans for a project to improve fern coverage at Wikipedia:WikiProject Pteridophytes/Northeastern America Initiative. I know the geography isn't quite right for you, but since you wrote a great deal of the present article on Asplenium trichomanes, I wanted to let you know in case you'd be interested in helping with one of the more cosmopolitan fern species.
