Welcome to Wikipedia. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, your addition of one or more external links to the page John Wyndham has been reverted.
Your edit here to John Wyndham was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline. The external link(s) you added or changed (http://www.wyndhamweb.com/) is/are on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.

If you think a mistake was made, or if you have any questions, you can leave me a message on my talk page. I fixed the template for you Scr★pIron^IV 15:53, 5 January 2018 (UTC)

Wallace Smith Broecker and GW

Thanks for your edit to Wallace Smith Broecker about the provenance of the term global warming, good thinking but a bit incorrect. Your assumption was due to a lack of clarity in the Roger Revelle article which I've now revised to show the terminology used by Revelle and Suess – the phrase "global warming" was introduced in a later quote from Suess's biographer. Helpful to find these issues! . . dave souza, talk 09:26, 18 February 2019 (UTC) ... update: the GW article has a citation from Spencer Weart's history showing the phrase had been in a newspaper article about Revelle's research, so clarified that in the Broecker article. . dave souza, talk 09:44, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
