Scouting

Yopur edits to Boy Scout were not appropriate as they were not encyclopedic. Also note that this article is not about the BSA. I hope you widen your interest in the articles on wikipedia about Scouting and make appropriate edits. Good luck. --Bduke (Discussion) 07:17, 25 March 2009 (UTC)

Your creation of Wikipedia:Wikipedia:WikiProject Scouting/Members was misplaced; I have moved it to User:Icorrectu/sandbox so that you can continue to work on it. We already have an article on the uniform and insignia of the Boy Scouts of America. --—— Gadget850 (Ed) ^talk - 19:07, 27 March 2009 (UTC)

Mineral

Just a note - I'm about to fact-tag several of your new statements on the mineral page that aren't entirely correct. I'm just tagging and not changing the text because you say this is a work in progress, so I'm assuming you have a plan and don't want to mess with what you've done by changing it.

All right, did it, fixed some wording and mix-ups with "molecule" vs. "mineral". There's a lot of dubious content there, so I'd appreciate if you had another look; also, please take some time and learn how to properly add references with the "ref" tags, and with spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

info, etc.

to the subject of incorrect information, I highly doubt that. I double check all my sites where i get my information and triple check if I feel it to be necessary. And, in the case of my "Mineral" edit, I used information from a geologist's research paper. However, I do understand where you could get that claim from. I have a bad habit of putting things into my own words (in a bad way.) I probably turned it into confusing wording that seemed as though it was incorrect. But I do agree with you on the point of grammar. Schools nowadays think grammar isn't very important to learn, even though it is usually worth quite alot on essays and research papers. How are we supposed to learn what a prepositional phrase is if we aren't even taught the difference between a regualr verb and an adverb? So, yea, I'll try to learn more about grammar (as soon as i learn what grammar is =P)
