Louisa McLaughlin

{{helpme}}My article Louisa McLaughlin displays perfectly in Firefox, Netscape and Opera but has suddenly started looking a mess in IE7. The blue arowed square icon which should be next to the bracketed number of an external reference now appears several spaces away, overprinting the black type. Please tell me how to correct this.

Sorry, I can't see the problem in either Firefox or IE7. Where abouts on the page is it? Stwalkerster [ talk ] 17:45, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

I don't see a problem either, but you may want to read WP:FN for help with footnote syntax. Hoof Hearted (talk) 17:47, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks everybody for trying to help. Wikipedia was in no way at fault. I reset IE7 and now all is well. Neurolinguist (talk) 19:33, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

SMOG name

SMOG is suppose to stand for "Simple Measure of Gobbledygook" or is it actually a backronym? As a name like Gunning Fog Index which supposedly measure the "foggyness" of text? — Dispenser 01:18, 12 April 2008 (UTC)

File source problem with File:EmmaMPearson.jpg

Thank you for uploading File:EmmaMPearson.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.

If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.

Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 18:52, 30 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks again

You might want to look at Tally stick where the Lebombo bone is mentioned. I'm also concerned about the "wolf bone" as it doesn't seem to be discussed much by archaeologists, which is surprising. Most of the sources I've seen are by mathematicians. Also Timeline of human prehistory and Timeline of computing hardware 2400 BC–1949 which despite the title includes the Lebombo and the Ishango bones. It included the wolf bone but I removed that.

Oops, just saw that you've worked on Tally stick. Thanks again. Dougweller (talk) 20:43, 30 August 2014 (UTC)
