Ways of receiving help All blue/purple text are clickable links. You can ask me for help by clicking here. You can also place a message at the bottom of the wpage under a section header. Remember to sign by using four tildes (~~~~) and indent your posts. You can read more about talk pages here. Sometimes, a talk page watcher might answer your inquiry. You might be answered more quickly if this happens, because I can't be on the computer 24/7. Click on , or click here, to find out other ways to contact me Pinging me at your own talk page by asking a question with {{Ping|I dream of horses}} somewhere within it. Emailing me by clicking here. Skyping me. I'm donkey_burger. I will not accept your contact request if you don't specify you are asking for help with Misplaced Pages. You can connect to Freenode using this chat client and talk to me there by typing /query IDoH. If I'm semi-around, my name is IDoH. If I'm not at my computer, or playing a game, I'm IDoH|AfIRC--I'll be able to receive a message, but not respond, so leave a message after the beep. *BEEP!* If you plan on editing on even a semi-consistent basis, you might want a mentor through adopt-a-user or the co-op. If you need help with creating a new article (you might need help if your article has been nominated for deletion), creating a "draft" with articles for creation or inside of your userspace might be useful. The teahouse, or if there's too many new editors there for your comfort, the help desk. There are other noticeboards here. They might be helpful for complex issues, like dispute resolution. Placing {{Helpme}} at your own talk page. Live chat assistance is available at #wikipedia-en-help , a public chatroom.

I dream of horses does not mind criticism. Feel free to let her know if she did something wrong. She also thinks you should do the same to any user as long as you follow some guidelines: remain civil, assume good faith and don't bite.

Is this enough number of references??

Dear, please check page Sinan Alimanović: https://en.wikipedia.org/Sinan_Alimanović I've updated his biography and applied some changes in external links as in the references (that is suggested). Is it ok now? Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lej La La La (talk • contribs) 3:42 October 1, 2015

@Lej La La La: Yes, it's enough, however:

I have concerns over the fact that there are no inline citations. For example, when you look at Bald Bluff Township, Henderson County, Illinois, you'll notice the linked after "As of the 2010 census, its population was 334 and it contained 159 housing units." The link goes down to the bottom of the page, where you'll find more information about the source used for that sentence. This is done with text that is put between a <ref> and a </ref>, and people often use links.

You can learn more about citations here, or you simply ask me more questions if you wish. --I dream of horses (C) @ 03:55, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

IP 166.170.52.214

Next time, I would look carefully at this IP's contributions before welcoming as all edits were bombing me because of a I comment made at that AfD. From what I see, I'm not sure who that was but I doubt they're here to be constructive. Cheers, SwisterTwister talk 03:46, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

@SwisterTwister: Yikes, sorry about that! --I dream of horses (C) @ 03:56, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

I thought the edit I made to the Adam Smith page to be true because I learned it in economics class. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.114.222.202 (talk) 17:54, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

I doubt that. --I dream of horses (C) @ 18:04, 1 October 2015 (UTC)

Babesiosis

It is in many places. Certainly New York. My husband is in White Plains Hospital CCU with it now and almost died. I don't have time to do the follow up you require, as I am exhausted and going there everyday. Educate and research, it is not well enough known and word is it is everywhere ticks are. You are doing everyone a disservice if you do not edit locations better. Call Albany Medical Center and look for infectious disease groups for info. It is downstate NY and upstate. I understand Cape Cod as well. Its too hush hush. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hoosierphilly (talk • contribs) 02:51, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

@Hoosierphilly: Firstly, I hope your husbands recovers.

You are never required to edit Misplaced Pages if you can't, or don't want to. --I dream of horses (C) @ 03:10, 2 October 2015 (UTC)

Macrophilia

Hi,

I'm writing to let you know that your revision was made in error. I'm someone from the Macrophile community, a very active member. I also run the NYC Macro/Micro meetup group, and have been a constant presence online in the size community for over a decade. This[REDACTED] page has been bothering me for years, and today I finally had to take a stand. This article is so wrong, and gives women and gay people something unusable. We want someone to google are fetish and not have to ask more questions because of gender labels in the article. It's stressful enough to come out to a partner or friend, and this article makes it no easier.

I'm a woman AND a macrophile, and half of this article reads incorrectly to me. The ONLY change I made to the article is to change pronouns to be genderless. It still reads the same for a hetero man in the GTS community. I'm urging you to help. This is actually a serious issue. I have spoken to countless girls and women like myself who suffer with this. We don't need to be isolated and ostracized more. We are here. We're in the thousands. We aren't some blip on the radar screen. Just read the talk page and see how the community has spoken out about this. This article will lose NOTHING by changing the pronouns, and only gain more support from people who have a resource that they can point to and say "This is me."
