Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Springfield, Ohio has been reverted. Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.facebook.com/pages/Evansville-IN/WIKY-Afternoon-Show-with-Mark-Elliott/233953284178?v=info&__a=17#!/pages/Evansville-IN/WIKY-Afternoon-Show-with-Mark-Elliott/233953284178?v=wall&ajaxpipe=1&__a=3. If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page.

Adoption request
Hello there, Hawkeye55! I'm Netalarm and I've been around on Wikipedia for quite some time now. It appears that you've indicated that you want to be adopted on your user page. While you can wait for an adopter to come forward and offer to adopt you, I would highly recommend that you also actively seek an adopter. From the cases I've seen, I've noticed that it is often much faster if the adoptee also actively participates in the matching process.

When choosing an adopter (click here for a list), there are a few things you'll want to check. First of all, you'll want to check if they are available. The column with the label "Adoption status" will tell you if they are able to accept more adoptees. You may also want to choose an adopter that has similar interests, which are indicated in the "Interests" column, though it is not required you do so. Once you have found an adopter you want, you may message them on their talk page and ask to be adopted. If you have any questions about this process (or about Wikipedia in general), feel free to message me on my talk page.

Greetings
Hello, Hawkeye55! I noticed that you are wanting to be adopted. Although my name isn't on the adopter list, I was wondering if you would be interested in letting me adopt you? The Utahraptor Talk/Contribs 17:15, 24 November 2010 (UTC)

Offer delinked
Hello. I've delinked the adoption offer on your user page because you have not responded to it in over a month. Please note that participation in adopt-a-user requires the effort of two individuals. All potential adoptees that do not respond to offers are automatically removed over a month to make room for adoptees that are active and want to participate. If you want to rejoin the program, feel free to message me on my talk page or post on the main adopt-a-user talk page. Thank you for your understanding. Netalarm talk 22:27, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being 'minor'. The only thing that's changed is that you will no longer be able to have them marked as minor by default. For more information on what a minor edit is, see WP:MINOR or feel to get in touch.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 22:43, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
