Monimokuzen's request
Hello and Konichawa high-flying fish, I seem to not realize I didnt source my edits. I read what you said about meeting up tonight and I believe I did. Remember when I read Zezenapsid002's conversation about Nigorobuna, I was certainly intrigued of this editor.. On this subject, I am continuing to loose my memorization of tracking a source by using numbers off of every paragraph or sentence. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Monimokuzen (talk • contribs) 02:12, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
 * To add a citation, click on the place you want the citation to be in the article (after the info you added). Click on the "Cite" tab above the article text in your edit window. There click the "Templates" drop down menu. If your source is a website, click "Cite Web". Put in the URL in the "URL" field and click the Magnifying Glass icon. It will auto-fill the other fields for you. Check the other fields and fix any errors the website made. Then click Insert. For journal articles, its the same, except you use the "cite journal" template and input a doi. For books, you use the Cite Book template and input an ISBN. If you can't find the DOI/ISBN of your source, just fill out the fields in the template manually. Feel free to ask me, or at the WP:Help Desk if you have more specific questions. --HighFlyingFish (talk) 02:34, 25 January 2019 (UTC)
 * I have reverted both edits. Cite your sources, or you will continue to be reverted. If you need help citing, please seek it out. Even just pasting in a url is better than nothing. --HighFlyingFish (talk) 02:48, 26 January 2019 (UTC)

I restored your edit to Jikin goldfish. Its visible again, and attached to the reference. The wording of the section needs improvement, as its hard to understand in English. If you could find someone who knows both the language the reference is in (Japanese?), and English, that would be really great. But for now, the section is back. --HighFlyingFish (talk) 06:55, 31 January 2019 (UTC)

Hello. When you patrol new pages, acceptable articles or articles which have been tagged for deletion should be marked as "patrolled" using the link at the bottom right of the article. This saves time and work by informing fellow patrollers of your review of the page so that they do not duplicate efforts. BoomerAB (talk) 01:13, 11 March 2009 (UTC)

Your contributed article, HighFlyingFish/Sandbox/Storage
Hello, I notice that you recently created a new page, HighFlyingFish/Sandbox/Storage. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as yourself. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Timeline of the War on Terrorism. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will to continue helping improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Timeline of the War on Terrorism - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, you may contest the deletion by adding  to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Difu Wu (talk) 16:48, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion declined: Funky caching
Hello HighFlyingFish, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of Funky caching, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: G1 is for random collections of characters and the like, which this article isn't. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. Olaf Davis (talk) 12:31, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

Peptide-RNA world
FYI - I've been looking at the RNA world article, and at the history of the Peptide-RNA world article which got merged, and I noticed your contributions... There's been some recent work in this area which I thought you might be interested in, if you don't already know — a research paper by John Sutherland and others in Nature Chemistry, also reported in Science Mag, which seems to demonstrate that precursors of both peptides and RNA (and of lipids as well) could have formed from a single network of chemical reactions, beginning with hydrogen cyanide and hydrogen sulfide... I've put a couple of lines about this on the Abiogenesis page, and also wrote a comment on Talk:RNA world. Kalidasa 777 (talk) 06:58, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Medical journal of Zambia


The article Medical journal of Zambia has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern:
 * Non-notable journal. Not indexed in any selective databases, no independent sources. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Speedy deletion nomination of Cyclopy (birth defect)


A tag has been placed on Cyclopy (birth defect) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:

"why would someone misspell a medical condition and also include a parenthetical description. This is a misspelling, not an alternate spelling."

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, pages that meet certain criteria may be deleted at any time.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the, or if you have already done so, you can place a request here. Natureium (talk) 18:27, 11 April 2018 (UTC)
 * This page should not be speedily deleted because it is a plausible misspelling, and when searching Cyclopy, the medical condition did not come up in the search options at all until I created this page. I did not make the redirect at Cyclopy because Cyclopy has a meaning, specifically its a song in the album Early Recordings from Kansas 1971–1973. Someone searching cyclopy may be searching for the song, or misspelling the medical condition. Prior to this redirect's creation, they would only find the song. If I made the redirect at cyclopy, they would only find the medical condition. --HighFlyingFish (talk) 20:49, 11 April 2018 (UTC)

Parenthesis and species authority
The use of parathesis around authority+year is not a matter of personal preference or random, but is governed by the ICZN Code (specifically article 51.3). When a species has not changed genus compared to its original description, there is no parathesis (example: Piaractus orinoquensis), but when it has there is a parathesis (examples: Piaractus brachypomus, originally described as Myletes brachypomus, and Piaractus mesopotamicus, originally Myletes mesopotamicus).
