A page you started (Helleria brevicornis) has been reviewed!

Thanks for creating Helleria brevicornis, Edit-pi!

Wikipedia editor Nick Moyes just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:

Interesting article. But please be aware that it is NOT acceptable behaviour to hijack a pre-existing page which is already a redirect from a similarly named genus, even if it's a synonym or nom illegit. This can disrupt pre-existing links. I think you should have created a new page - e.g. Helleria (woodlouse) - and redirected from that, as per WP:MONOTYPICFAUNA. You were also wrong to assert in your edit summary that the plant genus was Helleri. (see this). BTW: This article could make a good WP:DYK, if you fancy it, as there's an interesting hook to it.

To reply, leave a comment on Nick Moyes's talk page.

DYK for Helleria brevicornis

On 14 August 2018, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Helleria brevicornis, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Helleria brevicornis is the only terrestrial woodlouse that has retained the ancestral aquatic isopod behaviour of mate guarding? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Helleria brevicornis. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Helleria brevicornis), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Disambiguation link notification for September 21

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Woodlouse, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Diplocheta (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Cruelty

Never, ever, have I been tempted to edit another user's "User" page, but your outrageous provocation has sorely tested me. Please don't let your three-significant figure mis-approximation stand ... On second thought: brilliant!
Back to business ... I was brought here by your comments at Talk:Mining in Wales#Merge of Metal mining in Wales. Please continue to be WP:BOLD, but also be ready to WP:BRD; it's the flip side of bold editing that makes Wikipedia work, as long as we can swallow the odd injustice.

@Klbrain: Thanks for the comments and link to WP:BRD. The truth is I am actually quite conflict averse and make most of my edits logged out (never inappropriately). --Edit-pi (talk) 16:21, 24 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
