January 2010

Welcome to Wikipedia. We invite everyone to contribute constructively to our encyclopedia. Some of your recent edits, such as those you added to January 15, have been considered unhelpful or unconstructive and have been reverted or removed. Wikicalendar guidelines state that only observances that occur on the same date each year and are the subject of their own Wikipedia article should be added to calendar articles. Additionally, entries should only be made for holidays and observances that are widely celebrated as such and not just dates on which certain events occur. Refer to WP:DOY for details on what are acceptable entries in Wikicalendar articles. Thank you. -- Mufka ^(u) ^(t) ^(c) 23:25, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Number delimiting (grouping of digits)

Hello, Eirik1231, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed that you adjusted number formats in the article United States Virgin Islands with these edits. Although using spaces instead of commas may be a good practice under certain circumstances, unfortunately in this case it is discouraged by Wikipedia's Manual of Style (MOS). Following the MOS helps us to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. You can find a good explanation in the section Delimiting (grouping of digits). In scientific articles, numbers may be delimited with thin spaces, and there is a template to achieve this. Otherwise, commas would be more appropriate. Thank you. – Wdchk (talk) 23:20, 7 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MITS LOGO 1973

Your MITS LOGO 1973 svg file is not the same as the existing png file. It is missing the expanded name and the address. The chevron is half tone gray not light blue. I assume you were trying to improve the logo and article but the high resolution scan is a more accurate representation than the svg file. I am going to revert your changes. -- SWTPC6800 (talk) 20:44, 7 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The MITS LOGO 1973 image is more than just the logo; it is the opening image the article and ties several elements together. The significant elements of the image are the abbreviated name, "MITS", the full name, "Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems", and the location, Albuquerque, New Mexico. The history of MITS goes back to model rockets; this image shows the original name. The history of the personal computer is often associated with Silicon Valley, California, but it started in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The circle R is immaterial to the Micro Instrumentation and Telemetry Systems article. Your light blue chevron is nearly invisible, you need to darken it. -- SWTPC6800 (talk) 02:59, 8 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
