Greetings

Hi. In case you didn't know, while we should correct every mistake we find on Wikipedia, edits that consist of one or two very minor corrections are discouraged. Thanks, and happy editing. Xiner (talk, email) 20:34, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

Raymond E. Banks

This is an automated message from CorenSearchBot. I have performed a web search with the contents of Raymond E. Banks, and it appears to include a substantial copy of http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/ea.cgi?Raymond_E._Banks. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material; such additions will be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences.

This message was placed automatically, and it is possible that the bot is confused and found similarity where none actually exists. If that is the case, you can remove the tag from the article and it would be appreciated if you could drop a note on the maintainer's talk page. CorenSearchBot (talk) 09:45, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

How to respond to vandals

I saw your comment on the Margaret Atwood talk page. It's actually pretty common for someone to just mess around, so the page doesn't need to be protected -- it was clearly just targeted randomly. What you do after reverting the damage is add a warning to the vandal's talk page. (Which I've just done in this case.) And if an administrator sees that this person has been repeatedly ignoring warnings, they can block them.

Thanks for noticing this, and happy editing! --Levana Taylor (talk) 19:19, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
