I believe User:Asher196 removed your contribution because you used the word "sweetest".

 * I reverted the contribution because it was unsourced and un-encyclopedic. Also, the article did not need any more images.--Asher196 (talk) 02:37, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

Atacama boulders
Hi, your addition to the Atacama Desert article has been removed. The article could use a geology section, but not just that rubbing boulder bit and not in the aridity section. Also, we don't just throw out a tantalising tidbit and say  see ... for more. If the presenter at the GSA meeting has published a journal article about the seismic erosion he describes, then we could add it w/ proper refs to the Atacama and other articles. The teaser you added there was not the way to do it however. Vsmith (talk) 03:11, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Atacama boulders removed
Wow, I didn't realize helping to edit Wikipedia pages would generate so much negativity. The author has indeed published a paper on the boulders, in the journal Geology, but I now have no interest in updating the page. I am just learning how to do this, and already I'm getting push back, not only for this, but for the addition of orange tabby to the tabby cat page. A tabby cat page that doesn't include orange tabby isn't complete. I'm so frustrated. Keagiles (talk) 16:06, 27 July 2012 (UTC) Keagiles
 * Sorry 'bout that. By all means cite the Geology paper and let's redo that. I wasn't aware of that paper, I'll look it up - sounds interesting. I'd suggest retrying the edit with a reference to the paper in Geology with perhaps a bit more detail, and we can work on it. Please don't get discouraged, yes editing around here can be frustrating at times - stick with it and have patience with us. Keep on truckin', Vsmith (talk) 18:16, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
 * OK, found it. Published online on July 18, 2012, and hasn't appeared yet in the print version. The online version is citeable, but I'd prefer to wait for the print version. Most interesting article and applicable to other WP articles as well. Do you have access to the article? Vsmith (talk) 02:21, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:The Geological Society of America from above, ca. 2013.tif
Thanks for uploading File:The Geological Society of America from above, ca. 2013.tif. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file has agreed to release it under the given license.

If you are the copyright holder for this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either
 * make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-en@wikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-en@wikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as non-free fair use or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Should I create a separate account for my employer so I can then say something is my own work (then it will be)? Keagiles (talk) 21:33, 22 November 2017 (UTC)

Adding Factual Information
I am trying to update the Wikipedia page about The Geological Society of America because it is incomplete. All of my edits were undone in one fell swoop, even edits that were purely factual, not self-promoting or providing links to web pages and such. When is it OK to make factual edits to a page about one's employer that also happens to be a learned society with print publications? Keagiles (talk) 00:59, 12 December 2017 (UTC)

Paid editing
If you are editing on behalf of your employer you are required (by the Wikipedia terms and conditions) to make a declaration of paid editing. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:35, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
 * How do I do that? And it's purely links and encyclopedic info, not promotional. I already learned my lesson about that and using excessive external links when someone wiped out all my work. Thanks. Keagiles (talk) 18:39, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
 * The words "paid editing" in my message are in blue, indicating that they are a wikilink. --David Biddulph (talk) 18:44, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
 * OK< I have done that on my user page and on the article talk page. Note my work on other pages has been as a regular user. Keagiles (talk) 18:58, 19 December 2017 (UTC)
