Thanks for your work on Bararite. Please note that we don't use <br> or <br/> as a simple "enter" or two provides the needed one line paragraph separation. Also, as you note on the talk page, a simple comment in the "Edit summary" line is a good idea - lets other editors know what you're doing as a simple courtesy.

School project

Thanks for your work on some of our articles. You said you were doing this for a school project. Could you please let your professor know about WP:SUP, which is our coordination hub for school and university projects? It has lots of information about how to best incorporate his project with our guidelines. Thanks, shoy (reactions) 04:06, 23 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Bararite for DYK?

Hi. I've nominated Bararite, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Wikipedia:Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. Thanks, PFHLai (talk) 04:57, 25 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Bararite

On November 27, 2009, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Bararite, which you created or substantially expanded. You are welcome to check how many hits your article got while on the front page _{(here's how)} and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.
