Hello Jgross2atLSU,

Welcome to Wikipedia. I am an online ambassador for your class. This means that I will assist you with the world of Wikipedia by digital means. You can contact me on my talk page, or email me via Special:EmailUser/Graeme Bartlett. I am keen on geology but I have not studied it at the tertiary level. So this means you will know more than me on your topic, but I am looking forward to reading what you create. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 21:23, 19 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Some comments on your topic choice: Remember this is an encyclopedia, so articles should have not a very narrow topic or a very long name that no one will ever think of typing. So please try to keep you topic title as short as possible eg Western Interior Seaway paleoenvironments, or perhaps you can just give a big expansion to Western Interior Seaway. However your subject matter does have a place here, the issue is just what to call it or where to put it. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 12:01, 4 October 2012 (UTC)Reply

  Hello.

Western Interior Seaway anoxia

edit

Good article choice and lots of excellent material. However, as this is an encyclopedia article, you should try to stay more focused directly on the topic and limit the background and development to what is necessary. I rearranged the first paragraph to reflect this. I am glad to let you continue editing, but let me know if you want more help. -Fjozk (talk) 01:23, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Looking at the remainder of the article, it appears to be better focused on the topic; only the introduction was a problem. You did an excellent job writing a Wikipedia article, and it will be very useful for readers. Thanks. -Fjozk (talk) 21:03, 9 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Western Interior Seaway anoxia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hypoxia (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.

Wikipedia Education Program: student survey!

Wikipedia Education Program- student survey!

Hi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester! In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it would be very helpful to hear from real program students about their experience, so we know what to change. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!

Thanks so much! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 22:51, 17 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
