Brilliant first article here! I've been writing for over two years and mine aren't as good. Have you considered submitting it to WP:DYK? It's advantageous for a couple of reasons; firstly it puts your article on the mainpage (and it's always nice to see some evidence of your work presented to the wider world) and secondly it is normally worth a free copyedit - passing IPs and other users who see it and read it clean it up a bit, and every article can be improved in some way.

Hi

Hi RunningClam, just wanted to drop by and say thanks for your mycology-related contributions. I'm very happy to see you working on articles about historical mycologists. I have a bunch of them on my "to-do" list, but that list never seems to be getting any shorter no matter how much I work at it! Your recent addition of Elsie Wakefield reminds me I have a picture of her somewhere in one of Lloyd's Mycological Notes; when I have some time I'll go through them, scan the picture and add it to the article.

Clavarioid fungi

Nice little article, a great addition to the encyclopedia. Just pinging you because I think it'd make a great DYK candidate, and it isn't currently nominated. Lots of interesting facts- do you intend to nominate? J Milburn (talk) 22:00, 30 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I've gone ahead and nominated it here. It's always nice to see more fungi on the main page! J Milburn (talk) 10:54, 31 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Italics for taxa

Maybe my books are just out of date, but I've always seen it done the same way as Wikipedia- however, yes, the change was baed on Wikipedia's manual of style. See this list of what we italicise- the first point is "Genera and all lower taxa (but not higher taxa)". J Milburn (talk) 19:14, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Clavaria

Hi again, I expanded this article a bit more (there's so much that could be put in the history section!) and submitted for DYK. I noticed you're working on Clavaria fragilis, which could also be included in the hook I've suggested. I'll keep an eye on the article (and probably add some more - I have to justify having all of these mushroom books) and update the hook when you move the article into mainspace.

Rhizoctonia

Hi RunningClam. I saw that you widely improved the article of the genus Rhizoctonia. I created that to group 4 orphan articles that I found in other moment:

Reading what you wrote, I understood that now these names are assigned to other. I would do it by my own, but I'm not an expert and I am not completely sure, could you remove these articles and create the appropiate redirections when necessary?

I have repaired your cut-and-paste page move

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Piriformospora a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Serendipita indica. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases for registered users, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 15:57, 27 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Myriostoma into Myriostoma coliforme. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. Please provide attribution for this duplication if it has not already been supplied by another editor, and if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, you should provide attribution for that also. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. — Diannaa (talk) 21:18, 26 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Old Vicarage, Glasbury

Hi, not sure whether you're still resident in Glasbury, which, by the way, is a lovely article and a model for how to do settlements properly, well sourced and without those elements of Yellow Pages so common to such articles. If you are, I'm in pursuit of an image of the Old Vicarage, to fill in an irritating gap, here. Neither Commons nor Geograph, my usual go-tos, can help. Cadw's entry does suggest it may be visible from the public highway. Anyways, great if you can help, no worries if you can't, and thanks again for a lovely article.
