Journal cites (minus instead of endash in pages)
Could you explain "Journal cites (minus instead of endash in pages)". As I understand it, these are page ranges, which should use an endash. --JorisvS (talk) 16:07, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, they should use endash. The ones I'm changing are incorrectly using U+2212 minus sign. Rjwilmsi  16:09, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Okay, then I've misunderstood your edit summary. --JorisvS (talk) 16:11, 10 November 2014 (UTC)

Talk:Smalleye hammerhead
Hi,

Please look the title. cheers. DenesFeri (talk) 09:22, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

Please use display-authors instead of putting "et al." into an author parameter
Please use display-authors instead of putting "et al." into an author parameter. This edit, for example, would create a citation with "et al." after the ninth author's first initials if all nine authors were displayed. "et al." should not be italicized, per Manual_of_Style/Text_formatting. Thanks! – Jonesey95 (talk) 05:32, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Doesn't seem quite so easy to me. I'll increase the number of supported authors to 99 from 9, that's easy. I can set display-authors when using lastn, if et al was in original ref, that's OK. However, if the original cite has "Smith A et al", then for setting display-authors I would need to use |last1=Smith | first1=A | last2=whatever | display-authors=1 i.e. I have to add a dummy value for last2 to get the et al to display. Otherwise it looks like there is only one author, which there isn't. Is this what you think is correct?
 * On italics or not, WP:MEDRES shows italics so I'll stay with italics in author to comply with that. If WP:MEDRES is incorrect then please discuss changing it and if agreed I'll follow. Rjwilmsi  09:15, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * If the rest of the author list is not available, a dummy value for last2 would be the way to go, I suppose. In that case, putting "et al." by itself in last2, maybe with a comment to indicate why you are doing so, would be appropriate. Thanks.


 * As for italics, I could not find "et al" or "italic" in the page you linked. In any event, MOS should take precedence, I believe. – Jonesey95 (talk) 14:11, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Ah, typo in link, see WP:MEDREF. Rjwilmsi  14:40, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * I think only 8 display. As I recall, I manually put in all 9 authors in a citation in Zombie star, and that's what happened, I think. Is here a cure?  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:48, 13 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Never mind. I see User: Huon fixed that.  7&amp;6=thirteen (☎) 14:51, 13 November 2014 (UTC)

Please be more careful with citation authors
Please be more careful with citation authors. I don't know if you are using semi-automated tools; if so, they may have some bugs. I cleaned up after your edit to Potential applications of carbon nanotubes, but it came to my attention only because your edits added the article to a citation error category. Thanks in advance for checking your edits more carefully. – Jonesey95 (talk) 21:30, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * OK, will investigate what happened there, hyphenated first name and two first names seemed to cause some problems. Though don't think my edit added the page to the errors category, page is still in errors category now. Rjwilmsi  22:49, 16 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Just to confirm, both of those issues now fixed. Rjwilmsi  07:21, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Edits to Tool use in animals
Hi. There were recently some massive and contentious edits on Tool use in animals. I felt the only way to deal with this was to make a manual revert of the total article so we could go back to the beginning and look at the edits individually. Unfortunately, this has meant some of your recent edits on the article have been lost. I'm sorry I had to do this, but the other edits were unacceptable. Do you think you would be able to re-instate your edits? Apologies for creating work for you. Keep up the good work and happy editing. __DrChrissy (talk) 00:31, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
 * OK. Have re-applied by edit though there were only two citations to update, so I guess most of the ones I changed were in the changes you reverted. No problem for me. Thanks Rjwilmsi  07:20, 20 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Cheers. Glad it was not too much of a problem.__DrChrissy (talk) 10:39, 20 November 2014 (UTC)

Theodore von Kármán bibliography
Thanks for your doi contributions to the Theodore von Kármán bibliography article! I notice you have done so more than once, do you have a particular interest in von Kármán?

Hreschk (talk) 02:17, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Hi, no particular interest in von Kármán, I edit lots of science-related articles. Rjwilmsi  08:26, 25 November 2014 (UTC)
