Petrosomatoglyph coining[edit]
Did you coin the term Petrosomatoglyph? I can't seem to find it published anywhere before you started the Wikipedia article in 2006. Pharos (talk) 15:48, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- Hello Pharos, Thanks for the enquiry. Yes, I did coin the term. Rosser Gruffydd 18:00, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- I know it's a long time ago, and I'm honestly impressed by how the term has caught on a bit in other publications, but I guess at some point you've run across the policy for WP:NOTNEO? You may have even spawned an example for Wikipedia:List of citogenesis incidents :) Pharos (talk) 19:21, 22 January 2024 (UTC)
- I was faced with a research interest that no collective name. As you say the name found a place in the culture of folk with an interest in such things. I came across a policy when I was faced with a similar situation in connection with Leys and 'Ley Tunnels' was deleted even though I felt that I had encountered the term in my reading.

June 2024[edit]
Hello, I'm Danners430. I wanted to let you know that one or more of your recent contributions to Leven railway station (Fife) have been undone because they appeared to be promotional. Advertising and using Wikipedia as a "soapbox" are against Wikipedia policy and not permitted; Wikipedia articles should be written objectively, using independent sources, and from a neutral perspective. Take a look at the welcome page to learn more about Wikipedia. Thank you. Danners430 (talk) 12:17, 6 June 2024 (UTC)
