John Leonora
Hello Jack D. Zwemer. I noticed that you have been adding the link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Leonora in several Wikipedia articles. First, allow me to point out that links to other Wikipedia articles are actually really easy to make. All you have to do is type the article name with two brackets enclosing it. For example, typing this: John Leonora results in a link that looks like this in an article: John Leonora.

Second, I see that you have been placing links in the external links sections of several articles. Please take some time to read through the external links guideline to familiarize yourself with what kind of links are appropriate in such subsections. If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks. · jersyko   talk  17:29, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Based on his Wikipedia article, I think you're certainly correct to point out that Mr. Leonora was a scientist of great renown. Surely, Mr. Leonora should perhaps be mentioned, with appropriate citations and context, in Wikipedia articles relevant to his research.  Nonetheless, please note that Wikipedia not the right place to promote or spread awareness of an individual or cause.  Rather, Wikipedia strives for neutrality via relying on verification of text in reliable sources.  As I said, surely reliable sources exist for the extensive work of Mr. Leonora.  I encourage you to find those sources and provide appropriate context in the relevant articles rather than merely inserting a link without context.  Remember to be bold while editing, especially as a new editor.  Thanks. ·  jersyko   talk  18:06, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


 * P.S. - I moved the link at the hypothalamus article from the external link section to the "see also" section, since it's not technically an external link, but rather an internal, Wikipedia link. · jersyko   talk  18:09, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
