User talk:Anthropophoca

A belated welcome!


Here's wishing you a belated welcome to Wikipedia, Anthropophoca. I see that you've already been around a while and wanted to thank you for your contributions. Though you seem to have been successful in finding your way around, you may benefit from following some of the links below, which help editors get the most out of Wikipedia:
 * Introduction
 * The five pillars of Wikipedia
 * Contributing to Wikipedia
 * How to edit a page
 * Help pages
 * How to write a great article

Also, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name using four tildes ( ~ ); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post.

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page, consult Questions, or place help me on your talk page and ask your question there.

Again, welcome! — Wug·a·po·des​ 22:31, 29 January 2020 (UTC)

Please do not move a page to a title that is harder to follow, or move it unilaterally against naming conventions or consensus. This includes making page moves while a discussion remains underway. We have some guidelines to help with deciding what title is best for a subject. If you would like to experiment with page titles and moving, please use the test Wikipedia. Thank you.

Combat Approved moved to draftspace
An article you recently created, Combat Approved, 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 " " 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. –– F ormal D ude  talk  03:31, 17 March 2022 (UTC)

Giant anteater
Hello, I've reverted several edits you made to the article giant anteater last month, where you added new information without supporting references. Even if some information seems obvious to you (eg "keeping them sharp"), you need to provide sources to support that assertion while editing an article. The source that actually supported the sentence you modified (available here) does not mention keeping claws sharp at all; it hypothesizes that knuckle-walking evolved as a way to keep the long claws out of the way while walking and make it easier to walk. Also, you linked Foraging in the heading; per MOS:HEADINGS, headings should not include links. AryKun (talk) 09:10, 9 November 2023 (UTC)
