Welcome![edit]

Hey, Dianthus, welcome to Wikipedia! Thanks for your work on The Bourne Identity (novel). I made a few more changes to the article, though: just so you know, external links are generally not allowed in the bodies of Wikipedia articles. They're usually reserved for the "External links" section, and are chosen pretty narrowly even there; there's a bunch of rules for that sort of thing that can be found here, if you're interested. Also, I noticed that you were using the same external link syntax to link to other Wikipedia articles. That's okay, but there's actually a better way to do that. If you wanted to link, say, the Wikipedia article, you could write [[Carlos the Jackal|Carlos]] to make Carlos, or if the words you're linking to are the same as the article's title, you could just do [[Carlos the Jackal]], which makes Carlos the Jackal. No big deal, it's just a bit neater. Thanks again! Writ Keeper ⚇♔ 04:10, 13 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Please help me with...

I took two photos yesterday (10th October 2016) of a pair of Egyptian Geese which I would like to add to an article about Egyptian Geese because the article says that they're "mainly in East Anglia" and I took my photos in Petersfield in Hampshire - which is MUCH further west. How can I add them to the article? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_goose

Thanks

If you are autoconfirmed (go to Special:Preferences to see (you are autoconfirmed if it says "Member of groups: Autoconfirmed users")), you can upload the image yourself. If not, you can use the File Upload Wizard. —MRD2014 (talk • contribs) 01:20, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
