Expansion and wikification

Bwah? I'm curious, what needs expansion and what needs wikification? Those banners got put on pretty quickly and I'm not seeing anything obvious. Bryan Derksen 07:50, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

What I tagged

edit

Expanding your article as it is may not be necessary. However, as you are publishing this to Wikipedia, not necessary academic publishing, you are opening this article up for editing and as a new article that may trigger professionals in the field to evaluate and expand this article, I have tagged it for those purposes.

Wikification is to put the article up to par. Have you tried adding any pictures? As this is an encyclopedia, it is also something on the internet as well. As an average internet user only has an attention span of about 15-30 seconds, you may want to add any type of mixed media into this article as well.

I would also like to see the red links either be removed, fixed, or new articles be written. Red links are eyesores. :-)

Last but not least, your sources section is very extensive (I like it). However, can you please tag the specific sources you used with <tt><ref></tt>? It makes it easier for users to evaluate your sources to the paragraph(s) you wrote. Peer editing is key here on Wikipedia. Also, it makes your reference section uniformly formatted.

Glad to be of help. - Jameson L. Tai talkcontribs 17:57, 4 December 2007 (UTC)Reply

Ah, you were probably wanting to use the {{copyedit}} template or something similar instead of {{expand}}, then. I'll switch it over. Images for Mercury are pretty scanty since it was only ever visited by a single probe that did three flybys, I'd rather focus on the text for the time being. But as for the redlinks, those should definitely not be removed. Redlinks are good for the encyclopedia, they indicate subjects that still need to be written and ensure that they'll be properly linked up when articles eventually are created. See Wikipedia:Red link. Bryan Derksen (talk) 07:30, 5 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Eh, something like that... oh, by the way. You're now 13th on the list. Cheers! - Jameson L. Tai talkcontribs 07:44, 5 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
Which list? Not a revenge list, I hope. :) Bryan Derksen (talk) 09:26, 5 December 2007 (UTC)Reply
