List of fish in the River Trent

Many thanks for all your useful edits to List of fish in the River Trent, I was suprised that anyone would read it, let alone improve it as much as you have done. I do like the map, I hadn't even thought of that. Thanks. Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:50, 24 February 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for your nice note Jokulhlaup! You are very welcome -- my pleasure. I found the article because it mention "freshwater mussel" and therefore it showed up on our list of new bivalve articles, a list which is prepared by a bot every few days for WikiProject Bivalves. I lived the first half of my life in England, so I wanted to fix this article up a little bit. As you can see, I created a better introduction which explained the context some more (hence the map), and divided the rest of the prose up under various headings. I also went ahead and put links to the article in several other related articles (look under "What links here" in the tool bar at the left of the page) so that people would be more likely to find it, because really it is rather a nice article! Well done! Best wishes, Invertzoo (talk) 19:14, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
Thanks for your messages on my talk page and the one above, I did wonder about the Bivalves link when I saw it - now I know. I appreciate your removal of the citation tag, I was considering what was the best way to work around that, I will have a go at your suggested approach. Kind Regards, Jokulhlaup (talk) 17:32, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited List of fish in the River Trent, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages River Ouse and Midlands (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
