  Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Alligator farm may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • problems with poroperty damage from Sus scrofa L. (Fera 1 Swine), which are expanding their range(Ditchkoff and Mayer2009, Mayer

Hello students, and welcome to Wikipedia! It appears you are participating in a class project. You and your classmates have been doing good work to expand articles about endangered and extinct animals. You are making a lot of improvements to the article you have chosen. I am leaving this note to offer some advice about editing more carefully and about editing Wikipedia in general.

If you haven't done so already, we encourage you to go through our training for students. Your instructor or professor may wish to set up a course page, if your class doesn't already have one.

Go through our online training for students.

If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me for help by creating a new section on my talk page, or ask your question on this page and then place {{Helpme}} before the question. Please also read this helpful advice for students.

We hope you like it here and encourage you to stay, learn, and contribute even after your assignment is finished!

Please take a look at the changes I have made to citations in the article you are editing. When you add citations, please try to format them to match the citations I have edited. Specifically:

  • Do not use month=, just put the whole day, month, and year in the date= parameter.
  • Fill in accessdate= only when you have a url to go with it. accessdate= is not necessary for journal citations.
  • accessdate= and other dates need to be in one of these formats. Date formats like 10/12/2013 can be confusing to people reading in countries where they put the day of the month first.
  • Use pages= for the page numbers of a journal article, like this: pages=253–264. You should not cite the specific page on which the cited information appears.
  • Web addresses need to start with "http://", like this: url=http://www.science.org. This is not right: url=www.science.org.
  • I have noticed some typos in the citations that your fellow students have added. I strongly recommend using the copy and paste feature of your computer to avoid typos.

Thanks for all of your hard work! – Jonesey95 (talk) 03:20, 25 October 2013 (UTC)Reply
