Hi. When you recently edited Príncipe, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Cocoa (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.

Hello Spookpadda,

Thanks for your interest in Phebalium glandulosum. Sorry I reverted your add - I actually think you are correct, but according to the Australian Plant Census,[1] subspecies macrocalyx only occurs in Victoria. After reverting your edit, I realised that both PlantNET[2] and VicFlora[3] list the subspecies as occurring in N.S.W. So I will expand the article and include that information. I will also advise the APC. Gderrin (talk) 21:43, 9 July 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. No worries. Yes, my source was PlantNet - doing field IDs of similar plants (in SW Qld). Spookpadda (talk) 23:37, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the explanation - that is particularly appreciated. I see you are doing great work. Spookpadda (talk) 23:38, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No worries. I see the APC is now updated. I'll change the Phebalium glandulosum page. I hope you might upload images of plants you ID. Gderrin (talk) 23:58, 22 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Ok. good. Yes they are records on iNaturalist. Spookpadda (talk) 09:18, 23 August 2021 (UTC)[reply]

lapsus meus

[edit]

I just corrected two minor grammatical errors and marked each as a ‘lapsis’. That’s a lapsus linguae in itself. I can’t see how to edit my justifications for edits. Spookpadda (talk) 18:54, 7 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Ludwig Leichhardt, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Mount Abundance. Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

An article you recently created, Charles-Xavier Rochet d'Héricourt, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Hello, Spookpadda. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "Charles-Xavier Rochet d'Héricourt".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material deemed unsuitable for the encyclopedia mainspace, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 07:53, 4 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
