Welcome!
editWelcome to Wikipedia, Nuvitauy07! I have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia! If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a message on my talk page or by typing {{helpme}} at the bottom of this page. I love to help new users, so don't be afraid to leave a message! I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Here are some pages that you might find helpful:

I hope you enjoy editing here and being a Wikipedian! Oh yeah, I almost forgot, when you post on talk pages you should sign your name on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~); that should automatically produce your username and the date after your post. If you need help, check out Wikipedia:Questions, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and ask your question there. Again, welcome! --Flex (talk/contribs) 02:30, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
Speedy deletion of "Stenurida"
editA page you created, Stenurida, has been tagged for deletion, as it meets one or more of the criteria for speedy deletion; specifically, it is very short and provides little or no context.
You are welcome to contribute content which complies with our content policies and any applicable inclusion guidelines. However, please do not simply re-create the page with the same content. You may also wish to read our introduction to editing and guide to writing your first article.
Thanks. StaticGull Talk 13:50, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
Your edit to photosynthesis
editHi there, I reverted this edit, since it didn't look like that was what you intended to do. Tim Vickers (talk) 03:21, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
- Image from http://www.accessscience.com/ This website claims copyright on its contents. I've tagged the image you uploaded from this source, this will either need a copyright release (see Wikipedia:Copyrights) or it will be deleted. Tim Vickers (talk) 14:11, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
Possibly unfree Image:Temporal Order.jpg
editAn image that you uploaded or altered, Image:Temporal Order.jpg, has been listed at Wikipedia:Possibly unfree images because its copyright status is unclear or disputed. If the image's copyright status cannot be verified, it may be deleted. You may find more information on the image description page. You are welcome to add comments to its entry at the discussion if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you. Tim Vickers (talk) 17:58, 21 June 2008 (UTC)
Will Use External Links Containing Corresponding Images
editInstead of copying or duplicating information from a copyrighted image, I will find site(s) for the "External Links" section that contain parallel images. This also lets people widen their horizons beyond Wikipedia.
Nuvitauy07 (talk) 00:31, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks, that's an excellent idea! Tim Vickers (talk) 16:35, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

editHello. Please don't forget to provide an edit summary. Thank you. Slashme (talk) 06:19, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Unsourced additions
editYou've been adding various technical-sounding bits to articles, totally without source, without any useful wikilinks, and some even without checking for reasonable punctuation. I've reverted some of these. Please feel free to put them back when you can provide at least a source; reply here if you'd like help with how to add a citation to a source. Dicklyon (talk) 18:18, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
- Thank YOU. Dicklyon (talk) 20:40, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
Citations added
editDear Dicklyon:
I have added citations to the articles that you found needed. Thank you!
Reverted
editI reverted your addtion to color vision, which seemed to be pretty much an unsourced essay representing a strange and obsolete viewpoint on discrete color ranges. If you've got a source for this approach to color vision, please bring it up on the talk page. Dicklyon (talk) 05:53, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Purkinje effect
editI reverted this one, too. The writing was to malformed to attempt a fix. Dicklyon (talk) 06:06, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Same goes for color blindness. Complete sentences and sourcing would go along way to helping us understand what you're trying to contribute, and then maybe we could help fix it. Dicklyon (talk) 06:11, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Source Indicated
editDicklyon,
All references are from the 2006 Britannica CD. They have been paraphrased, thus protecting copyrights
Nuvitauy07 (talk) 21:03, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, I see your sources. But your paraphrases are not very intelligible. If you'd like to email me some of the text that you're trying to paraphrase, I can use that to convert your version to good English. Dicklyon (talk) 23:34, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
Thank You
editDicklyon:
Thank you for putting the information on color vision in a clearer format. You seem like a knowledgeable expert on color, more so than me. By the way, what is so lousy about Britannica? It has been trusted for centuries.
Nuvitauy07 (talk) 06:47, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- Mostly it's good (not as good as wikipedia on average, but not bad). But the human eye article on your version at least is not great. Disfluencies like "the luminosities of different colours", disfluent semi-truths like "the sensation of white may be evoked by employing much fewer wavelengths than those in the spectrum: namely, by mixing three primary hues—red, green, and blue" (the implication that you need these three colors is contradicted later where they say that blue and yellow can make white), and errors like "the phenomena of colour vision demand that there be three types of cone, with three separate pigments having maximum absorption in the red, green, and blue" and "any colour, be it a spectral hue or not, may be matched by a mixture of these three primaries, red, green, and blue, if their relative intensities are varied". These things are false enough to be significantly misleading. Dicklyon (talk) 08:24, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Red + Green = Yellow
editDicklyon,
You said there was a contradiction between two ways to form white: 1) yellow & blue, or 2) red, green, and blue. Recall that Britannica states that that yellow can be formed by red and green. So it comes to the same result, right? Nuvitauy07 (talk) 18:50, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
- Sure it does, if you make it that way. But you can also use monochromatic yellow and mix it with monochromatic blue, and get white from just those two wavelengths. Or use just red and a blue-green wavelength. It doesn't take 3 colors to make white. Dicklyon (talk) 22:00, 17 January 2009 (UTC)
Retinal Receptor Form
editCould anyone find one or a few pictures on the form of rods and cones of the eye? Thanks!
Hi. The reason I think that the link you added to Eye doesn't comply with Wikipedia guidelines is here. Best. --Old Moonraker (talk) 06:07, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
Hi! What exactly are the guidelines prohibiting addition of the link on "The Eye design"? .
Thank you,
Rhodopsin
editI have reverted your edits to rhodopsin for the following reasons:
- astroprofspage.com is a blog and as such it can not be considered a reliable source.
- Kolb H, Fernandez E, Nelson R, Jones BW (2010-03-01). "Webvision Home Page: The organization of the retina and visual system". University of Utah.
{{cite web}}
: Cite has empty unknown parameter:|coauthors=
(help)CS1 maint: multiple names: authors list (link) could be considered a reliable source, especially since it has been reproduced here. The problem with this source is that the scope is very broad covering the entire visual system where rhodopsin is one part of the system. Hence it is very difficult for the reader to locate the relevant pages in the Webvision site that relate to the parts of the rhodopsin Wikipedia article that you are trying to source. Including links to the Webvision site is OK, but you need to more precisely link to the section in the Webvision site that is relevant to the fact in the Wikipedia article that you are trying to support. - I am very puzzled why you removed the link to the Webvision site in the external links section. This is a very appropriate location for a general link to the home page of the Webvision site.
- I am also very puzzled why you removed the links to the various chapters of the Rhodopsin and G-Protein Linked Receptors monograph. This is a very relevant and authoritative source of information on rhodopsin that clearly qualifies as a reliable secondary source. Feel free to add additional citations (e.g., links to specific subsections of the Webvision site), but if you delete citations that others have added, you need to justify this in your edit summary.
Thank you. Boghog (talk) 05:54, 16 September 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for including a more specific link in your followup edits! Cheers. Boghog (talk) 18:25, 17 September 2010 (UTC)
License tagging for File:KallSpat2.jpg
editThanks for uploading File:KallSpat2.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 10:05, 10 October 2010 (UTC)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Sequence.jpg
editA tag has been placed on File:Sequence.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. LukeSurl t c 12:18, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
The file File:Temporal Stages.jpg has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
unused, low-res, no obvious use
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the file's talk page.
Please consider addressing the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated files}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and files for discussion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any file(s) for deletion; please refer to the page history of each individual file for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 01:02, 27 March 2020 (UTC)
