Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Cadarache, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Plasma.

Hello Michaelmas1957,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Poseidon's Wake for deletion, because the article doesn't clearly say why the subject is important enough to be included in an encyclopedia.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to work on it, you can contest this deletion, but please don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. pcfan500talk|my contribs 14:33, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

OK. I've contested the deletion on the article's talk page. – Michaelmas1957 (talk) 14:46, 24 January 2015 (UTC)

The article is done now. Thanks for removing the deletion template. – Michaelmas1957 (talk) 07:12, 26 January 2015 (UTC)

On 29 March 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Lawrence Hogben, which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that naval officer and meteorologist Lawrence Hogben participated in the hunt for the battleship Bismarck, and later helped plan the Normandy landings? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Lawrence Hogben. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

My name is Leah and I work for Gensler. I’ve noticed recurring graffiti on the Shanghai Tower page and wanted to ask for your help in editing, as I have a conflict of interest to edit directly.

There is an architect named Marshall Strabala who was a member of the Shanghai Tower design team while he was employed at Gensler. Various users have been editing the Shanghai Tower page since 2011 to state that he is ‘chief architect’ or ‘lead architect’ of Shanghai Tower. This is incorrect. The sole architect for Shanghai Tower is Gensler.

Marshall Strabala was an employee of Gensler until 2010. When he worked here, he was a member of the Shanghai Tower team, and he reported to Jun Xia, the architect who has led the design team from inception through completion. Marshall Strabala should not be listed as architect alongside Jun Xia. There have been more than 100 members of the team, so listing them all, with their specific roles, would be unwieldy.

Can you help us clarify on the Shanghai Tower Wikipedia page that Gensler is the sole architect of Shanghai Tower?

Yes, I've sorted that out now. Thanks for the information. – Michaelmas1957 (talk) 14:19, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

I managed to screw up citations under personal life. And try as I might, I can't see the error. Please see if you can fix it. Sorry. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 16:04, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

DYK Review completed. Hope you like my additions to the article. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:03, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

Thanks very much, well done! – Michaelmas1957 (talk) 17:24, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

I tend to do a lot more than a mere review.

I would say that it could use some further editing. My additions are not as fully integrated as they could be. But I'm kind of burnt out for now. Good luck! 7&6=thirteen (☎) 17:28, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

IMHO, the article Joseph Bryan Nelson needs more wikilinks to it. It's almost a WP:Orphan. Nobody will ever find it. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 19:25, 13 September 2015 (UTC)

On 25 September 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Joseph Bryan Nelson, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that the ornithologist Joseph Bryan Nelson spent a year living in a tent on the Galápagos Islands, where he was visited by Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Joseph Bryan Nelson. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000.
