User talk:SE3-29X

This is my talk page. Ask me about anything you have questions about, and I will give you my honest opinion. If you think I have a bad opinion, one, it is subjective, and two, you asked for my opinion. Blame yourself. Put your questions down below. I trust you won't mess this upper part up.

Questions[edit]

Make a new header if you want to ask a question, like you saw with the tea party.

Answers[edit]

I will answer your questions. What did you expect?!

Problem with your custom signature[edit]

You have a custom signature set in your account preferences. A change to Wikipedia's software has made your current custom signature incompatible with the software.

The problem: Your preferences are set to interpret your custom signature as wikitext. However, your current custom signature does not contain any wikitext.

The solutions: You can reset your signature to the default, or you can fix your signature.

Solution 1: Reset your signature to the default:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Remove anything in the Signature: text box. (It might already be empty.)
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page. (The red "Restore all default settings" button will reset all of your preference settings, not just the signature.)

Solution 2: Fix your custom signature:

Find the signature section in the first tab of Special:Preferences.
Uncheck the box (☑︎→☐) that says "Treat the above as wiki markup."
Click the blue "Save" button at the bottom of the page.

More information about custom signatures is available at Wikipedia:Signatures#Customizing how everyone sees your signature. If you have followed these instructions and still want help, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Signatures. 19:04, 3 September 2020 (UTC)

Chemistry images[edit]

Hi SE3-29X,

I just wanted to drop you a note to explain why I rolled back a couple of edits you made:

this one at Silver bromide, and
this one at Actinium(III) oxide

There are a couple of issues here. File:Actinium(III) oxide structural formula.png is inaccurate because there are no charges on the actinium atoms, despite the correct charges on the oxygens. There's also too much space around each atom and the colour scheme could be hard to read for some. File:Actinium(III) oxide model.gif is also problematic because we already have a much more accurate model of the structure in the article: File:La2O3structure.jpg. File:Silver bromide (structural formula).png implies AgBr is a molecular substance with a covalent bond between Ag and Br, but in reality it is more ionic than covalent and Ag⁺ Br⁻ is a better model. File:Silver bromide Model.gif has the same issue, and we already have a more appropriate image in the article, one that closely based on experiment (X-ray crystallography): File:Silver-bromide-3D-vdW.png. Animated GIFs are generally quite distracting and not very popular amongst the Wikipedia chemistry community, so I would avoid them unless they communicate a unique and important point.

I don't mean to discourage you from editing chemistry articles at Wikipedia. Come and introduce yourself at the WikiProject Chemistry talk page, meet some fellow chemists and discuss illustration. There are some guidelines at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Chemistry and Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Chemistry/Structure drawing if you don't mind reading a long document. I've also put together a short list of pointers at User:Benjah-bmm27/MakingMolecules. --Ben (talk) 17:11, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Ben,

Thank you for your input. I will take this into consideration in my future edits. Thanks once again.
