Hello, Listephanie, and welcome to Wikipedia! My name is Ian and I work with the Wiki Education Foundation; I help support students who are editing as part of a class assignment.

I hope you enjoy editing here. If you haven't already done so, please check out the student training library, which introduces you to editing and Wikipedia's core principles. You may also want to check out the Teahouse, a community of Wikipedia editors dedicated to helping new users. Below are some resources to help you get started editing.

Apple maggot page

Hi Listephanie, I recently reviewed your DYK nomination. I remember the process being pretty confusing the first time I did it, so I just wanted to notify you that I passed your nomination (usually if your nomination passes, you only get a nomination when the DYK is published). I did have one question about the page though--one sentence states "the species has also recently spread." The source for this material was in the 1960s, is that still "recent"? It might be more accurate to put a decade for the spread, if possible. Rachel Helps (BYU) (talk) 19:42, 9 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

Thank you! I appreciate that you took the time to notify me and explain the process. I did a revision based on your comments. Listephanie (talk) 03:20, 11 October 2019 (UTC)Reply

DYK for Apple maggot

edit

On 14 October 2019, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Apple maggot, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that adult apple maggot flies (pictured) use their wing patterns defensively to mimic spiders? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Apple maggot. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, Apple maggot), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Dryomyza anilis, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Intromission (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)
