March 2009

Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page Ground (electricity) has been reverted.

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove unwanted links and spam from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. The external links I reverted were matching the following regex rule(s): \bexample\.com (links: http://www.example.com).

If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link. Please read Wikipedia's external links guideline for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! --XLinkBot (talk) 05:18, 4 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edit to Río de la Plata

Hello, and thank you for your contribution to Wikipedia. I noticed that you recently added commentary to the Río de la Plata article. While Wikipedia welcomes editors' opinions on an article and how it could be changed, these comments are more appropriate for the article's accompanying talk page. If you post your comments there, other editors working on the same article will notice and respond to them, and your comments will not disrupt the flow of the article. Thank you!

Help me please.

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

I asked a question on an article's Talk page, but none of the responses were helpful.

The article is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_emitter

It contains a commonly believed fallacy and it really should be corrected.

I want to draw the attention of the article's author by explaining the error with the help of a couple of diagrams. I have already drawn them. I can upload them as jpg or gif.

Please help me with...

Where and/or how can I contact the author, and to where should I upload the diagrams?

I must say that I thought it would be fairly easy to achieve this, but it is, to say the least, user hostile.

It seems the only way I can check for a response is by logging in to Wiki. Is not possible to receive notification of a response via email?

Articles often don't have a single author but are collaborative efforts of many contributors. Thus each article comes with its own talk page (here Talk:Common emitter); that's the best place to point out issues with the article.

Regarding the images, if you drew them yourself and are willing to release them under a free license that allows everybody to re-use and modify them for any purpose, including commercial purposes, you can upload them to the Wikimedia Commons via their Upload Wizard.

In your preferences you can choose the "Email me when a page or a file on my watchlist is changed" option to receive notifications of responses. Huon (talk) 00:33, 15 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
