Talk:Columbia, South CarolinaClimatologyEditor (talk) 23:38, 11 June 2022 (UTC) edit

Couldn't find the comment option for the other talk page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category_talk:Columbia,_South_Carolina

Something pretty unusual happened when I edited the page to match 1991-2020 climate normal data. I did not edit anything past snowfall, but everything past snowfall I did not edit immediately disappeared and was replaced with a red message. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Columbia,_South_Carolina#Climate

Not sure what happened? Perhaps someone more experienced than I would know?

Your edit to Columbia, South Carolina altered a ref tag. It deleted the closing bracket, so the parser spliced the next reference in with it, which led to it thinking there were two names of the reference.
I've rolled the edit back. What's your source for the updated information? —C.Fred (talk) 23:42, 11 June 2022 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much! My sources for the number of days above 32-38 Celsius are the NOAA citation retrieved on May 14 2021 (as they are what it gives for 1991-2020), and the existing climate table for snow and USDA zone. The table data I edited into the text is easily verifiable with cross-checking the table to what I wrote, but I can't directly link you to the data because it always reverts to the link in the citation. So number of 32-38 degree Celsius has to be put in.

I really can't thank you enough for the politeness and help with my first mistake.

Would you prefer it if I left the page as it was before the edit, by the way? Or do you think the information I put is good enough to be edited back in?

  Hello, I'm Donald Albury. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Tallahassee, Florida, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Donald Albury 14:34, 11 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
