Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

I personally liked your addition to this article. But it really needs a source. And I assume that is why it was removed. I would encourage you to put it back, but with a WP:RS please. 7&6=thirteen () 15:08, 6 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

That it had no source is exactly why it was removed.--Mr Fink (talk) 15:12, 6 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
Plus, Metamorphosed Fossil never bothers to provide any source for his/her/its edits, ever.--Mr Fink (talk) 16:34, 6 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

I know the welcome is belated. I thought it important that you be given positive feedback, not negative criticism. We really would like you to contribute. But wikipedia has standards, and you need to know them so you can abide by them. Happy editing. 7&6=thirteen () 17:58, 6 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
