From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hello! I'm assuming you've popped over from the English Wikipedia, so you're probably familiar with the way this wiki works. I hope you like it here and decide to stay on! Here's a few links to help you adjust:
There's plenty to do here. For example, there are a lot of articles that don't exist yet, which you can bring over from the English Wikipedia and simplify. Do have a look around and see what you'd like to do. Thanks for joining us, and you know how to contact me if you need a hand. πr2 (talk • changes) 02:54, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello, dear EchoDodo. :) Thank you very much for your help with categorizing: it's really appreciated. Do you plan on doing many more changes presently? If so, I can give you the flood flag so that your changes will be hidden from the New Changes. We are a rather smaller wiki than the English Wikipedia, so it's more important to keep a careful track of new changes for possible vandalism to clean up. What do you think? And by the way, please tell me if I can help you in any way whatsoever, and I will be very happy to do so! :) I (usually) don't bite ;) Cordially, —Clementina talk 11:52, 2 September 2010 (UTC)
Hi, EdoDodo! You may not know me, but I know you...by your great editing as a new user, anyway. :P I just wanted to come and give you some first encouragement. Your signature is just beautiful!
Belinda has given you some cookies! Now enjoy them! |

I gave you the flag, let any admin know when you have finished :) fr33kman 18:32, 10 September 2010 (UTC)
I have discovered that Simple has a category Hominians, which is a mis-spelling for Hominins. It has a bunch of pages relating to human evolution. The name of the category needs to be changed, and all pages listed there to have category links to Hominins. I contact you because I remember Category doesn't normally use redirects, so I don't know how to do the change myself. It must be done, one way or the other, because the topic is important. Thanks, Macdonald-ross (talk) 07:09, 30 September 2010 (UTC)
Both Hominins (English) and Hominina (Latin) are correct. In Nature and Science there is increasing use of the informal; but not for professional publications in taxonomy.
I think most Simple users would feel comfortable with Hominins, with a redirect from Hominina. Many of our biology categories are in the English version; and in general our categories are decided as we think best on Simple.
Category 'Hominians' should be deleted: it is a non-word. Regards, Macdonald-ross (talk) 14:23, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi EdoDodo,
I know I left that infobox looking very messy, but I wasn't sure how to go about fixing it. Much appreciated.
I expect I'll run into this issue again. I can see from your edits how to go about it, but if you could point me to where I might find the SEWP infobox templates or whatever to match up, I'd appreciate it. Kind of hard to search for "Infobo" or whatever.
If you have time, then I can clean up after myself. Thanks, Ted (talk)
