Branchionus ledigii
Hello. I saw your article on Branchionus ledigii in the list of contributions from new editors. There was a few points with the article that I decided to fix. First of all, if you start a paragraph with a space, that whole paragraph will go into a box, like this.

So I removed that space. Secondly, it is customary to start the article with the name of the subject, in bold, rather than using "it". Thirdly, when you mention something like phytoplankton in an article, something that a reader might be unfamiliar with, it is wise to include an internal link, by writing phytoplankton. (This will appear in the text as phytoplankton). The fourth thing I did was to add at the end of the article, this adds the text "This biology article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it" to the bottom of the page, and includes the article in the category biology stubs. The last thing I did was remove your signature. Please do not be offended by this, but no article on wikipedia has a single author, the idea is that anyone can edit, and that this collaborative work will produce the best results.

The article needs some more work I think. It would be a good idea to create links to it from related pages, more people will see it that way. Some of these might be able to contribute constructively to the article. You should also write something in the article about why this specific plankton is notable enough that it deserves its own article. (If no such notability is established, the article might get deleted).

Hopefully, you will find this information helpful. I also hope you will make many contributions to wikipedia in the future. Please ask me on my talk page if you have any questions. Happy editing! Dr bab 11:42, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
