Welcome to Wikipedia: check out the Teahouse![edit]

Hello! Rbouch2, you are invited to the Teahouse, a forum on Wikipedia for new editors to ask questions about editing Wikipedia, and get support from peers and experienced editors. Please join us!

I, and the rest of the hosts, would be more than happy to answer any questions you have! SarahStierch (talk) 04:43, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi I noticed that you uploaded the same picture a few times. File:Earth and Asteroid.jpg File:Earth Asteroid Collision.jpg File:Earth and Asteroid Collision.jpg and commons:File:Wiki HW picture.jpg. Usually in this case it means that some are superfluous and can be deleted. Which ones would you like to go? Graeme Bartlett (talk) 07:58, 10 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Earth Asteroid Collision.jpg[edit]

A tag has been placed on File:Earth Asteroid Collision.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Intraplate deformation[edit]

Hi, I have moved your page to Intraplate deformation as it was moved to the Wikipedia name space by mistake. I will take a close look and make some more suggestions. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 08:55, 8 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Intraplate deformation[edit]

On 9 December 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Intraplate deformation, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that tectonic plates in the Earth's crust are not completely rigid but can be deformed by the melting of an ice cap? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Intraplate deformation. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added 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.

Wikipedia Education Program: student survey![edit]

Wikipedia Education Program- student survey!

Hi! I work with the Wikipedia Education Program, and I'm hoping to get your feedback about your experience this semester! In order to help other students like you enjoy editing while contributing positively to Wikipedia, it would be very helpful to hear from real program students about their experience, so we know what to change. The survey takes no more than 10 minutes, and I'd really appreciate your response!

Thanks so much! JMathewson (WMF) (talk) 22:52, 17 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
