Thank you!
I just wanted to say thank you very much for adding a photo to Boreray (sheep). It's hard to find free images of such a rare breed. If you ever have any questions, feel free to ask. :-) Steven Walling &bull; talk   21:25, 20 November 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for March 14
Hi. When you recently edited Gross annual value, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Council House (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.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

Ninth Air Force Edit
Hi there!
 * Just wanted to let you know I reverted your recent edit to Ninth Air Force that added a category. Due to the (insert adjective) of the Manpower and Organization folks at Hq, USAF, today's Ninth Air Force is unrelated to the one stationed in the UK during WW II.  There has been quite a bit of discussion about to handle this (much of it centered on links).  If you want more info about this, see Ninth Air Force, Talk:Ninth Air Force and Talk:United States Air Forces Central.  However, I think your attempt to improve the article is worth a semihemidemibarnstar Original Barnstar.png--Lineagegeek (talk) 23:16, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page. For the Election committee, MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 16:51, 24 November 2015 (UTC)

WikiProject Wikify: Current Backlog Reduction Plan
Hey, I noticed you marked yourself as a member of WikiProject Wikify and you are currently listed as active. I was wondering if you would be able to assist with our current backlog reduction plan. While traditional drives are more structured month-long sprints by WikiProject Wikify members, there is currently lacking activity within the project and in order to significantly reduce the incredible backlog, members are encouraged to review all articles marked with the Underlinked Template Message - underlinked - a list of which can be found here - to analyze the worthiness of the template message on the given article. Articles that have nothing to link or are have had wikilinks sufficiently added should have the template removed to clear the backlog and make it easier for editors to find articles in genuine need of wikification. This can be done by any editor; however, all editors should consider joining if they haven't done so already. Thank you!

 * I've done one... I'll keep looking on and off, though spending more of my time on the fr.wikipedia at the moment. Thanks for flagging this to me, I've been wondering about wikify for a while... Gibbja (talk) 14:07, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Joseph Bancroft Reade
What is your source that Joseph Bancroft Reade was one of 17 founded of the Royal Microscopical Society in 1839? I'm not refuting your claim but the source I added doesn't list his name. Thanks. UaMaol (talk) 05:26, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
 * I used Parlour aquariums which is one of the references for that paragraph. "Both Bowerbank and Ward were among the seventeen founders, as were Lister himself, Reade, Cornelius Varley, Andrew Ross, and George and Conrad Loddiges."

Maiestas and Recilia
Hi there! Looks like a couple years back you added a source that indicated that Recilia had been significantly revised, mostly into Maiestas. I'm looking to fix and update the Recilia species articles accordingly, but don't have access to the source linked (this one:Webb, M.D.; Viraktamath, C.A. 2009: Annotated check-list, generic key and new species of Old World Deltocephalini leafhoppers with nomenclatorial changes in the Deltocephalus group and other Deltocephalinae (Hemiptera, Auchenorrhyncha, Cicadellidae). Zootaxa, 2163: 1-64. Abstract & excerpt). Do you still have access, and if so, can you share? &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 15:58, 10 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I've looked and unfortunately don't, it was a while ago and I dont really recall the other sources I used. Apologies. Gibbja (talk) 10:38, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
 * Ah that's a shame. Thanks for getting back to me though. &spades;PMC&spades; (talk) 22:15, 11 March 2020 (UTC)
