Welcome to Wikipedia-Chem
Welcome to Wikipedia. You are encouraged to ask around if you have any questions or have any views to share on this project, but you seem to know what you are doing. One suggestion: if you are making similar edits to several articles, i.e. your IUPAC link, then you should probably tell the community of editors by leaving a note at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Chemistry. You may get some helpful suggestions. Good luck, P.S. you might consider editing your user page, which currently "redirects" to Hernandia nymphaeifolia, unless you are trying to send some message.--Smokefoot (talk) 20:12, 2 January 2011 (UTC)

Rhizophydiales
Pasting in entire paragraphs lifted from published papers is a copyright violation. --EncycloPetey (talk) 17:37, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Salvia parryi
I noticed that your addition to Salvia parryi was also a copyright violation, copying word for word from the journal article abstract. I've removed it from that article - feel free to rewrite in your own words, and review the following policies and guidelines: WP:COPYVIO, WP:Close paraphrasing, WP:Text Copyright Violations 101. In a couple of days I'll be going through your other recent additions to remove any other copyright violations, if they haven't been fixed by then. First Light (talk) 14:33, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

 * Some policies you might find especially helpful are Reliable Sources (I noticed you tried using personal correspondence as a reference in one article, which isn't allowed as a source); the related WP:Verify; and WP:Manual of Style, which shows how articles are formatted, when bolding is used, etc. First Light (talk) 19:47, 30 January 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification
Hi. When you recently edited Polyphenol, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rockweed (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Stuckenia
This is an automated message from MadmanBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Stuckenia, and it appears to include material copied directly from http://www.efloras.org/florataxon.aspx?flora_id=1&taxon_id=131808.

It is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article. The article will be reviewed to determine if there are any copyright issues.

If substantial content is duplicated and it is not public domain or available under a compatible license, it will be deleted. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material. You may use such publications as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. See our copyright policy for further details. (If you own the copyright to the previously published content and wish to donate it, see Donating copyrighted materials for the procedure.) MadmanBot (talk) 07:52, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 17
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Stuckenia, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Börner (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Securinine
Hi,

the atom numbering in File:Securinina.png is wrong. 15 should be 9 and 14 should be 10. You should start numbering from the other end of the main bridge to minimalize number of the first secondary bridge. This is not in R-2.4.2.2 but all rules works so and the Baeyer name must be unique. Gyimhu (talk) 09:53, 11 July 2020 (UTC).

Hi! The numbering is not IUPAC, it is from Dictionary of Natural Products because it's biogenetic. http://dnp.chemnetbase.com/HelpFiles/DNP_Introduction.pdf pp. 163

Sourcing at Hernandiaceae
This edit of yours did not have a ref associated with it, but two of its three sections appears to match this website word-for-word. Some parts of that content are still present now. Do you know if there is an underlying other free source for this content we can cite, or else if it's a copyvio that needs to be cleaned? DMacks (talk) 13:53, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
