Per your comment on my talk page: That's great! Much of what we do here is try to write articles so that high school students can get something out of them as well as PhD students. Copyediting to simplify and better explain some of our science articles is needed (example: animal). Power to the wiki! --mav

- Ah, version control (fun, fun, fun). No pun intended, but you are lucky that the cumulonimbus article doesn't have much to say while yours does (this will make merging the two easier). It should be a simple matter to copy over your text to that page title and then integrate that material into your text. Then what would need to be done is that all the links to cumulonimbus cloud will need to be changed to simply cumulonimbus. At that point you can just redirect that page to cumulonimbus or add the page to page titles to be deleted. You should mention on that page that this is an overpecific page title that was just created (an important point around here) and that the content has already been moved and all the links to it have been deleted. I would simply redirect the page after making it an orphan though (this is the easiest solution and most of the time the preferred one unless there is little chance that the page title will ever be linked or looked for; such as a terrible misspelling or typo). The wiki awaits.... --mav

West Virginia as the U.S. Collaboration of the Week
Hey Luckymama, I recently nominated West Virginia's main article as a candidate for US Collaboration of the Week since it is in much need of a major upgrade and reorganization. As a fellow West Virginian, I hope you will help us with this current endeavor. Please feel free to support the nomination or make a comment either way at the US Collaboration nomination page. Thanks! --Caponer 22:53, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Quoting Sources
I was just wondering how to site wikipedia articles for a science project I am doing. I need to include it in my bibliography, but i dont know how to site it. My Bibliography Sheet says i need the The author, title, online posting, date of posting,name of forum, date of access, and the url. I can fill in some of these, but I am confused about the others or need more information. The article I am trying to site is the Weather Forecasting article that you initiated. You may view the article here:

Weather forecasting

I Hope I can get some clues on how to solve my problem!

Fair use rationale for Image:Louie, Chico and Ed.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Louie, Chico and Ed.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. — M o e   ε  23:38, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

Image source problem with Image:Green freddie .jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Green freddie .jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the GFDL-self tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Fair use, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 10:03, 8 August 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Papa November 1 10:03, 8 August 2007 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for Image:Louie, Chico and Ed.jpg
Thank you for uploading Image:Louie, Chico and Ed.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this image on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the image description page and add or clarify the reason why the image qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator within a few days in accordance with our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 12:14, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
