[edit] Welcome

Welcome to Wikipedia. I hope you'll stay. Wikipedia is about:

• writing an encyclopedia.
• feeling free to improve articles.
• being civil.
• letting go of our bias.

I recommend:

• the Community Portal, to help orient yourself to various editing efforts in progress.
• the Wikipedia Signpost weekly newsletter, if you're curious about current governance and conflicts on Wikipedia.

[edit] Image:Nutgrass_Cyperus_rotundus.jpg

Nice pic, thanks for uploading! Unfortunately the oval shape doesn't look too good on wiki pages, do you have the original rectangular version free to upload? - Thanks, MPF 15:46, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks!

[edit] Horseweed

Thanks also for the request on Horseweed - the page is a joke! I'll have a go at getting the two pages sorted. My feeling with cases of common name ambiguity like this, the best option is to use scientific names for the actual pages and make the common names into disambigs or redirects, but I'll do a bit of reading up first - MPF 21:47, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Done! - MPF 23:03, 19 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks! Glad to help - MPF 16:39, 20 December 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cyperus rotundus

Hi Rick - Thanks for the note; looks a good start, I'll have a longer look through tomorrow. "Do you think it justifies a "World's worst weed" redirect?" - I'd say no; that's just an opinion, not a hard fact (several other plants have attracted the same comment! - a quick google search for "World's worst weed" names [alphabet order] Chromolaena odorata, Cyperus rotundus, Echinochloa crus-galli, Eichhornia crassipes, Elymus repens, Salvinia molesta), and generally, it is best to stick to facts, not opinions. Maybe perhaps best to list all these (and any others) at weed and make "World's worst weed" a redirect to that - MPF 23:55, 23 December 2005 (UTC)

Thanks! Didn't think I'd added all that much! (most of what I did was formatting to get it into a similar style to other plant articles). Sorry it took me so long to get round to having a look through :-) MPF 13:11, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] text-less leaf morphology chart

Hear you are sir, for the commons: [1] If it isn't what you are looking for, let me know. Debivort 06:01, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] changed Lead came and copper foil glasswork

I have edited in some fresh knowledge from my day job at a glass studio for you to the Lead came and copper foil glasswork page. The flowchart graphic may need to be adjusted to include the reinforcement bars section. check it out Eagleapex 03:52, 19 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Portal:Israel/New

I saw your newedits on Menashe and Moar. Please add them to Portal:Israel/New so that others know of your new contributions. --Shuki 21:09, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Moshavim

Shalom! Would you be interested in translating some Moshavim articles? Thanks. frummer 18:46, 17 January 2007 (UTC)
