Your recent edits
[edit]Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! --SineBot (talk) 19:27, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

While it's great to continue to try to improve all articles, things like adding a whole new section to a featured article (like Global warming) is probably not the easiest thing to do. There are plenty of short articles that don't really cover the whole subject that need entire new sections, and it's possible that Global warming would benefit from being re-organized. However, the best way to improve mature articles like global warming is usually to edit the existing language, work within the existing structure, and neaten and tighten the language. If you want to change the structure of a featured article, you should get consensus at the talk page first. The bit about a near-future lack of warming (and then a return to the warming trend) is already in the article, although the language could be improved and it could be edited to flow better with the section. - Enuja (talk) 04:42, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
Edit-warring
[edit]You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on global warming. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. MastCell Talk 05:24, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
A study on how to cover scientific uncertainties/controversies
[edit]Hi. I would like to ask whether you would agree to participate in a short survey on how to cover scientific uncertainties/controversies in articles pertaining to global warming and climate change (survey described here). If interested, please get in touch via my talkpage or email me Encyclopaedia21 (talk) 17:36, 5 June 2009 (UTC)
