Bot editing?

Hi, this edit[1] you made to Salvia divinorum incorrectly changed the title of a botanical journal, "SIDA", to "Sida". Are you using a bot to make these edits? If so, you should review Wikipedia:Bot policy. First Light (talk) 15:32, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Well, it looks like both version are commonly used, though WorldCat uses "SIDA". But do read the Bot policy that I linked. First Light (talk) 15:41, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

No bot, done that myself. Sorry if this was a mistake. Was just trying to clean up some references. Yours, Kilom691 (talk) 17:26, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Erdős–Woods number, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Theoretical Computer Science (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.

Ringing journal in Ruff

Hi Kilom691: I just wanted to let you know that the correct name for the BTO journal is actually Ringing & Migration, with an ampersand. (See here.) Not sure why they chose to use an ampersand rather than "and", but there you go! I've changed the name back in the Ruff article, and didn't want you to wonder why you'd been reverted... MeegsC | Talk 14:29, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the warning. Well, I have done that in several articles. I am going to check them now if I manage to find them back. Kilom691 (talk) 14:31, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

No worries! You can always check your "user contributions" (one of the links listed under the toolbox heading on the left side of this screen) to see which ones you might have changed, if you can't remember them off the top of your head. MeegsC | Talk 16:22, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

Journal names and abbreviations

I prefer abbreviated journal names when the citation has a PMID, DOI or JSTOR that will give a link to the abstract. Page down in Template_talk:Citation/Archive_3#Italy_vs._Rome to see some of the pathological cases. Some of the medical articles can have more than 100 refs too. You may want to look at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject_Citation_cleanup. I think Wikipedia:Citing Sources talks about tools and templates, I use these tools.

• http://toolserver.org/~verisimilus/Bot/DOI_bot/
• http://diberri.crabdance.com/cgi-bin/templatefiller/index.cgi?ddb=&type=pubmed_id&id=&add_text_url=1
• http://reftag.appspot.com/?book_url=&dateformat=dmy (Google Books URL => Cite)

If you're a Firefox user and prefer a text editor, the itsalltext plugin is useful.
