Hello. Please don't use gratuitous capitals in naming Wikipedia articles; write transferable belief model, not Transferable Belief Model. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Michael Hardy 19:31, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Thanks. I have now looked through the Manual of Style. Will try to remember it.

[edit] Proper bolding

Hello. Wikipedia:Manual of Style calls for setting the title word or title phrase in bold at its first appearance. (I've taken care of this in Adrian Smith.) Michael Hardy 22:26, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Edit summary request

When editing an article on Wikipedia there is a small field labeled "Edit summary" under the main edit-box. It looks like this:

The text written here will appear on the Recent changes page, in the page revision history, on the diff page, and in the watchlists of users who are watching that article. See m:Help:Edit summary for full information on this feature.

Filling in the edit summary field greatly helps your fellow contributors in understanding what you changed, so please always fill in the edit summary field, especially for big edits or when you are making subtle but important changes, like changing dates or numbers. Thank you.

And thanks for filling in the metric units as well. Sometimes we many American editors can forget to put things in anything other than imperial. It's a big world. Cheers!--Kchase T 09:01, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Units of measure formatting tool

Hi,

You might be interested in saving yourself some time and effort by using my unit formatting tool. User:Bobblewik/monobook.js/unitformatter.js is a monobook tool allows units to be formatted with one click on a 'units' tab in edit mode.

You can accept or reject the changes offered and/or do more editing before pressing 'Save'. Simply copy the entire contents of User:Bobblewik/monobook.js to your own monobook. Follow the instructions in your monobook to clear the cache (i.e. press Ctrl-Shift-R in Firefox, or Ctrl-F5 in IE) before it will work.

Any questions, just ask. Regards and keep up the good work. bobblewik 20:18, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
