"humorous" is correct English spelling per the Oxford English Dictionary, otherwise I wouldn't have passed this as a Good Article. Thanks. -- Rodhull andemu 00:43, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
I agree with your comments about the number of WP rules. Bear in mind that a sizeable number of irresponsible editors don't observe the policies and guidelines and leave it for everyone else to clear up after them. So please don't feel you have to understand the policies. These are the only things that you need to read - not to memorise, but to be aware of -

Don't get drawn into reading the related articles because, as you've already found, there's too many. The editing code techniques you pick up by seeing what others have done when you edit the articles. -- John ( Daytona2 · Talk · Contribs) 10:21, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
from WP:MOS - Avoid contested vocabulary
Words and phrases like thusly, overly, whilst, amongst, as per, refute in the sense of dispute, along with several others, should be avoided because they are not widely accepted—at least in some of their applications. Some are regional, so unsuitable in an international encyclopedia (see National varieties of English below). Some give an impression of "straining for formality", and therefore of an insecure grasp of English. See List of English words with disputed usage, Words to avoid, and List of frequently misused English words; see also Identity and Gender-neutral language below. 76.19.101.108 ( talk) 09:40, 14 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, just to let you know, your work in progress page contained live categories and interwiki links. As a draft page, these should not be included, as it can mess up the categories; I inserted a colon here to unlink them. Cheers QueenCake ( talk) 20:57, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
Hi. I read your comments at the UK dragonfly lists's talk page. There's another Wikimedia project that sounds like it's just what you want - WikiBooks. They are inthe process of building online field guides, which sounds like the format you are after SP-KP ( talk) 08:16, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
P.S. Here's an example of a page to give you an idea of the format [1] - it's about US birds though; it looks like British dragonflies are still at an early stage. SP-KP ( talk) 08:22, 15 August 2009 (UTC)
