 == A quick hello == 
 Hello, I was looking at the article you created:  Winter insect ecology.  It was very well sourced.  You must have worked very hard on it.  I changed from the Harvard referencing style to the way I sometimes see references in Wikipedia (the reference is linked to and the page number is with the link).  Keep up the good work!  Thanks.  ~a ( •  •
