Thank you for all of your help! I just have a couple of questions.

Hi Chris, I have been working on the Bioelectricity Wikipedia page with my colleagues and I really appreciate all the help that you have provided us in making the page more suitable for Wikipedia. We have put in citations in all the places that citations have been requested and also responded to the suggestion to merge with Biomagnetics (which we do not agree with and put our statement in the appropriate talk page a couple of weeks ago). I am wondering if you'd be willing to remove the two tags on the top of the page that indicate the need for the citations (which we have put in) and the suggestion for the merge (which we don't agree with and no one else has added to the conversation)? I really appreciate your help with our efforts to make the field of Bioelectricity more available for the general public to learn about and to hopefully enrich and inspire lives through learning.

Best wishes and many thanks,

Thanks

Thanks Chris for all your great editing for wiki.

Proposed deletion of Acoustic network

The article Acoustic network has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unreferenced for literally 20 years. Tagged for Notability concerns for 8 months. No other language has a reliably sourced article from which to translate. I see a handful of passing mentions in Google books, but not what appears to be significant coverage.

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}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

Diacritics

Hello, I noticed you have removed all diacritics on letters in the Serbian paper on Body hair. Is it really necessary? Thanks in advance.-- Carnby (talk) 06:27, 22 July 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Agricultural technology

Hi, @Chris! Thanks for caring about copyrights and marking the article here as being closely paraphrased a few days ago. If you let me know the source being plagiarized, I'll happily rectify the situation. Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 07:05, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

See page page 547 at Google Books from Hemathilake, D.M.K.S.; Gunathilake, D.M.C.C. (2022). "Agricultural productivity and food supply to meet increased demands". Future Foods. pp. 539–553. doi:10.1016/B978-0-323-91001-9.00016-5. ISBN 978-0-323-91001-9.

Compare the two paragraphs about 20th & 21st century   — Chris Capoccia 💬 11:46, 20 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, @Chris Capoccia. Thanks for the clarification but none of the pages you mentioned are part of the preview at Google Books. Could you wikimail me a scan of the page being plagiarized? Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 01:12, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

I'm looking at the wikimail interface and not seeing any way to attach an image. But if you go to google books and past the paragraph of text into the search box (starting with "The 20th century saw great strides…"), then the resulting book preview link will take you to page 547 and show you that page that it wouldn't show before.   — Chris Capoccia 💬 22:55, 22 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

you can see the two paragraphs here https://www.sciencedirect.com/topics/agricultural-and-biological-sciences/agricultural-technology:

−

Text from p 547: The 20th century saw great strides in agricultural technology, including the development of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides and new agricultural machinery including mass-produced tractors and air-conditioned agricultural aircraft. Recent developments include agricultural plastics, genetically modified crops, and landless farming techniques such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and aeroponics (Stewart, 2018). In the first decades of the 21st century, Information Age technology was widely used in agriculture. Agricultural robots, agricultural drones, and non-motorized tractors found frequent use on farms, while digital agriculture and agricultural accuracy used extensive data collection and computation to improve farm performance. The advent of agricultural technology began about 10,000 years ago. Simple hand tools that provided ease of start gradually evolved into the mechanical repair equipment that are commonly available to farmers today. A closer look at the body of current technology reveals the commercial solutions available to almost every agricultural operation that can be easily automated (Stewart, 2018).

Text from wiki page with close paraphrase problem: The 20th century saw major advances in agricultural technologies, including the development of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides, and new agricultural machinery including mass-produced tractors and agricultural aircraft for aerial application of pesticides. More recent advances have included agricultural plastics, genetically modified crops, improved drip irrigation, integrated pest management, and soilless farming techniques such as hydroponics, aquaponics, and aeroponics. In the first decades of the 21st century, Information Age technologies have been increasingly applied to agriculture. Agricultural robots, agricultural drones and driverless tractors have found regular use on farms, while digital agriculture and precision agriculture make use of extensive data collection and computation to improve farm efficiency. Precision agriculture includes such areas as precision beekeeping, precision livestock farming, and precision viticulture.

Thank you very much for that, @Chris Capoccia. Someone else removed most of the problem and I removed the rest. Oona Wikiwalker (talk) 00:35, 4 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
