Thanks. Missed that. --John Abbe
Reverted back Wiki
I reverted Wiki back to the version that has it inheriting the properties of software engine. I put what I feel is a logical illustration of my claim of this relationship in the talk section. If there's information that I'm missing, then I'll gladly oblige. Timhowardriley (talk) 21:00, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
As noted there, not all wikis are software engines. And even if they were, it's not a helpful term for most readers. --John_Abbe (talk) 11:26, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
Friendly heads up
Hi John! Thanks for your great contributions to the project! One guideline you may want to read up on is
Thanks yeah, it's true that I am very fond of adding links in Wikipedia, but I try to keep it relevant - and with Elon Musk's SpaceX, Tesla, Hyperloop, etc., just seemed like a missing link. It's interesting, because Musk's explicit goal seems to be to help save humanity, but somehow it always leads to him designing and building fast-moving toys! :-) John_Abbe (talk) 19:40, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
NVC @ Wikipedia
Hello John, since you sport an NVC user template on your page (and an advanced one!), I wonder if you made any experiences using NVC at Wikipedia. If so, I would love to learn from your experience; I prepared a page at User talk:SebastianHelm/NVC for discussing that. — Sebastian 11:26, 24 January 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks for the invitation, I have chimed in there and we'll see what happens!

Copying within Wikipedia requires attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Arundo donax into Reed (plant). While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g., copied content from [[page name]]; see that page's history for attribution
. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted {{copied}} template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was copied, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 13:19, 21 August 2019 (UTC)
