Photos of scientists
editMaybe I should edit the page header to say "mostly retired," but every now and again these days I have a chance to take a photo of a scientist whose Wikipedia article does not have a good photo. So I will use this account to add such photos when I have them. betsythedevine (talk) 22:41, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
Disambiguation link notification for January 13
editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Björn Jakobson, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Värmdö. 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.

  You are invited to join us the "picnic anyone can edit" at John F. Kennedy Park, near Harvard Square, Cambridge, as part of the Great American Wiknic celebrations being held across the USA. Remember it's a wiki-picnic, which means potluck.
We hope to see you there! --Phoebe (talk) 16:33, 12 July 2017 (UTC) | |
(You can subscribe/unsubscribe from future notifications for Boston-area events by adding or removing your name from this list.) Thanks, I wish I could join you, but I'm in Sweden that day. Have a great Wicnic! betsythedevine (talk) 15:10, 14 July 2017 (UTC)
