Hi Adam, thanks for your edit to Megadrought. I'm blind and can't see the image but a search on TinEye produced this news story which describes the image is a lakebed, which is good enough for me. Therefore I moved the image to have "lakebed" in its filename and fixed up the caption in all the other English Wikipedia articles that use it.

Also re this edit summary, pretty much everything requires a source on Wikipedia; adding your own personal observations is original research. Graham 87 06:06, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Sundayclose. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, List of urban legends, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Sundayclose (talk) 02:44, 24 December 2022 (UTC)

Hi Adamnewbie! I noticed that you recently marked an edit at Thunderstorm as minor that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia—it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.
