Albedo[edit]

Thanks for your edits to albedo. I undid them because I don't think they belong in the middle of the lede, especially since the article is about the science and doesn't mention it elsewhere. I believe that the addition would be very useful in some of the geoengineering articles. Also, the "ref" tags are useful for placing references, instead of direct in-text links. If you have any questions, feel free to drop a message on my talk page; I usually respond in a matter of hours. Awickert (talk) 22:39, 3 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So the beginning of an article is supposed to summarize information in that article - so I'll have to remove what you say again because it's not in the body, sorry. The article on albedo is about what albedo is, with examples of what causes the terrestrial albedo. Under the "see also", there is the geoengineering-related article "Solar radiation management", which I think would definitely benefit from the inclusion of what you say. The "ref" tags are what is around citations to put them in the list at the bottom of the page. - the right-hand button at the top while you're editing should automatically place them.
