Anyway. You're getting this note because you've participated in discussion and/or asked for updates to either the [[WP:AFT5|Article Feedback Tool]] or [[WP:NPT|Page Curation]]. This isn't about either of those things, I'm afraid ;p. We've recently started working on yet another project: Echo, a notifications system to augment the watchlist. There's not much information at the moment, because we're still working out the scope and the concepts, but if you're interested in further updates you can sign up [[Wikipedia:Editor engagement/Echo|here]]. |

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited [[Birth control]], you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page [[Water retention]] ([[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dablinks.py/Birth_control|check to confirm]] | [[tools:~dispenser/cgi-bin/dab_solver.py/Birth_control|fix with Dab solver]]). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. <small>Read the [[User:DPL bot/Dablink notification FAQ|FAQ]]{{*}} Join us at the [[Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links|DPL WikiProject]].</small> |

Thanks again for a comprehensive and thorough GA review. You caught me on a good cpl days, my first free time for Wikipedia in awhile. I went through the article, esp the history section and corrected the copyvio you noted. I also paraphrased the areas that sounded like close paraphrases themselves. I also added info on tuition and graduation rates as suggested. After I took excerpts from the article and googled them, no outstanding copyvios/close paraphrasing appeared. Feel free to check it anytime now that the majority of concerns are solved. If you have any further, I'd be happy to address them as well [[User:Bhockey10|Bhockey10]] ([[User talk:Bhockey10|talk]]) 20:55, 30 August 2012 (UTC) |
