Welcome!
Hello, SilkyVermilingua, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me on my talk page. Ian (Wiki Ed) (talk) 15:38, 2 June 2016 (UTC)

Seagrass
There are two problems with the statements you recently added to seagrass. The first statement you added says, "Seagrass population was around 4 billion in the 1950's and recent data has recorded current seagrass population to be around 2.2 billion". But that means exactly nothing because you specified no units! 4 billion species? tonnes? milligrams? cubic miles? hectares? blades? Secondly, you didn't provide any citations. A core policy on Wikipedia is that article content must be verifiable, that is, statements like the ones you added should by cited with reliable sources. Please provide the missing units and citations. --Epipelagic (talk) 00:47, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Well five days and you haven't responded or provided the missing elements, so I have deleted your contribution. Disappointing. Please feel free to reinstate your contribution if you provide the missing units and citations. --Epipelagic (talk) 00:13, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
