Hello
[edit]Hello there, I'm just apologizing for my editing on the Constellation links. I should of understood and took time to read that this isn’t a place for advertising and I'll take that into consideration.
Yeh they are amazing bands, its great to try and get people together who love the same music. As much as I love Boards of Canada and other electronic artists for that matter I decided to keep with a theme of Constellation Record artists, but that might change in the future!
Again sorry for my mistake and thanks :)

Space Invader
[edit]I've seen it referred to as both Invader and Space Invader. He seems to sign himself as just Invader, but others refer to him more often Space Invader. I've no real preference over what the article is titled, except obviously for the fact I chose Space Invader. Fine by me unless anyone else objects. --duncan 22:11, 6 August 2006 (UTC)

Hello
[edit]Thanks for your concerns. I think I'll just try to work things out directly with any interested editors as there are likely to be reasonably few of them, and working across a dozen talk pages at once is fairly inconvenient. I did take one of the largest of these categories that I could find, Category:Pages containing IPA, to categories for deletion to see what the consensus was on that matter. See [1] for some discussion on relevant issues. Christopher Parham (talk) 19:08, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Tofurky/tofurkey
[edit]If a page links to a redirect, it's not necessary (or desirable) to edit that page just to change the wikilink. See Wikipedia:Redirect#Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken. I've mentioned on the Talk:Tofurky page that the redirect probably shouldn't be there anyway. -- JHunterJ 11:54, 21 September 2006 (UTC)
- Yeah, I know. :/ I started doing it (when the move asked me to check for double redirects) and then realized maybe I shouldn't be, and continued partially just for consistency (heh), and partially because I was thinking tofurkey basically referred to Tofurky anyway, and so was a misspelling. (Though I did see the recipes, it still could be argued that those are imitating the Tofurky product — and besides, did people use the word "tofurkey" before that product, or is it a genericized trademark?) Looks like your comments on the talk page were made after I did the move. Anyway, now I believe you're right about the tofurkey thing and I think it was a good idea to separate the pages; I'm just trying to explain my reasoning so as to look a bit less foolish. :) Incidentally, Talk:Tofurky is still a redirect to Talk:Tofurkey. Though the comments there kind of pertain to both articles (really they pertain to the old Tofurkey), I assume the best thing to do would be just to remove the redirect. What do you think? --Galaxiaad 17:52, 22 September 2006 (UTC)
- Oops on the derelict talk page redirect; yes, it should be removed (I'll do that momentarily). Turtle Island has trademarked only Tofurky, although they have both tofurky.com and tofurkey.com. tofurkey goes back in the news to 13 November 1996 (Hartford Courant), tofurky to 7 November 1995 (The Oregonian), both in reference to Turtle Island products, so (I speculate) there may have eventually been an issue with getting tofurkey trademarked. <shrug> -- JHunterJ 17:26, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

That was around the time my laptop died, though, so I don't really have any logs to refer to; and Google does show someone around by the nick "AMKestrel", so I can't really say whether you're remembering me or not. ... um.

Neuropsychosis <-> Psychoneurosis
[edit]The reference which James used was an old journal, named "California Medicine", which i actually have a print copy of; the neuropsychosis/psychoneurosis thing was one of those old phrases which were used but dropped somewhat later. The paper was printed in the 60's, so it's excusable that the name is interchangable.. still, i'll replace it, as there needs to be continuity in the message presented to the reader.

I have reverted twice to one revert and then only once to another revert, these do not compromise 3RR. Also 3RR is about staying civil, which I have throughout this unlike Billywhack.

Bupropion ownership, MAOIs
[edit]This also bothered me... see Wikipedia:Ownership of articles, and as for the MAOI bit, A and an. Regardless of what letter a word starts with, if it's *pronounced* with a vowel sound at the beginning ("em"), it takes "an". It could be argued that the abbreviation MAOI is only written shorthand, and that in reading it out loud one would actually say "a monoamine oxidase inhibitor", but I think most people would simply read the letters out, so it would take "an". --Galaxiaad 03:43, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
- Dear Galaxiaad,
- I re-read the guideline on the Ownership of articles, and I do not think that it applies to the situation with bupropion. Please check the article’s history. I always try to avoid reversals, even when the edits are questionable from my point of view, if they do not introduce factual mistakes or make the article significantly worse. Unfortunately, this was the case with about a half of the many edits Outriggs made. For example, Wikipedia guidelines encourage formal style of writing, and Outriggs replaced formal “because” by “so” and formal “approximately” by “roughly”.
- I am sorry that the edit summary “Correcting outrigg's grammar, factual mistakes, colloquialism” bothered you. However, Wikipedia:No personal attacks guideline explicitly permits referring to other editors: “When there are disagreements about content, referring to other editors is not always a personal attack. A posting that says "Your statement about X is wrong because of information at Y", or "The paragraph you inserted into the article looks like original research", is not a personal attack. The appropriate response to such statements is to address the issues of content rather than to accuse the other person of violating this policy.” There no exception mentioned as applied to the edit summaries or the editor’s talk page headings.
- My mistake was to reverse “an MAO” to “a MAO” since both forms are acceptable. You can find them both used in peer-reviewed and edited by professional editors journals. Americans appear to prefer “an MAO” while Europeans and Australians – “a MAO”. You read the word as “emeyo” while I read it as “meyo”, so it is just a tomahto – tomeito difference not worth the trouble. Since then I changed the article to uncontroversial “MAOIs”.
- I would like to repeat that I will always appreciate your edits, and I hope in the future to solicit them, if you do not mind.
- SincerelyPaul gene 19:30, 25 August 2007 (UTC)
WikiProject Pharmacology is currently organizing a new Collaboration of the Week program, designed to bring drug and medication related articles up to featured status. We're currently soliciting nominations and/or voting on nominations for the first WP:RxCOTW, to begin on September 5, 2007. Please stop by the Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week page to participate! Thanks! Dr. Cash 17:49, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Drugs: Do not include detailed dosage and titration information.
[edit]Galaxiaad,
I would appreciate your comments on the topic of acceptability of dosage and titration information on the MEDMOS Talk page. Thank you Paul gene 01:55, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
Aspirin has been selected as this week's Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week! Please help us bring this article up to featured standards during the week. The goal is to nominate this at WP:FAC on September 10, 2007.
Also, please visitWP:RxCOTW to support other articles for the next COTW. Articles that have been nominated thus far include Doxorubicin, Paracetamol (in the lead with 4 support votes so far), Muscle relaxant, Ethanol, and Bufotenin.
In other news:
- Bupropion has been promoted to featured status on August 31, 2007.
- The Wikipedia:WikiProject Pharmacology main page has been updated and overhauled, to make it easier to find things, as well as to highlight other goals and announcements for the project.
- Garrondo is asking for individuals to help review Therapies for multiple sclerosis, as he is considering nominating this article for GA status.
- Fvasconcellos notes that discussion is ongoing regarding the current wording of MEDMOS on including dosage information in drug articles. All input is welcome.
Dr. Cash 00:46, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
Here's a brief update in some of the recent developments of WikiProject Pharmacology!
- Aspirin has just completed its two week run as the first Collaboration of the Week! Many thanks to those editors that contributed; the article got a lot of good work accomplished, and in particular, much work was done in fixing up the history section. It's still not quite "done" yet (is a wikipedia article really ever done?), but after two weeks I think it's more important to push onwards with the development of the new collaboration of the week program. I will be fixing up Aspirin in the next few days and possibly nominating it for either GA or FA status.
- Muscle relaxant has been selected as the new Collaboration of the week until October 2, 2007! This article is currently rated as a "stub", so it's got quite a bit of work cut out for collaborators! Admittedly, featured status could be a long way off,... but still attainable! At the least, maybe we could at least get it up to meeting the Good article criteria? Please stop by the article and help improve it.
- Resveratrol, having recently achieved GA status on August 16, 2007, is now making a run for featured status. This is quite a fascinating compound. If you can, please stop by its discussion page and leave comments in support of it.
- Please remember that Wikipedia is not a forum for discussing or dispensing medical advice amongst users. Specifically, talk pages of articles should only be used to discuss improving the actual article in question. To help alleviate this situation, the template {{talkheader}} may be added to the top of talk pages, reminding users of the purpose of such pages. Additionally, unsigned comments and comments by anonymous users that are inappropriate may be removed from talk pages without being considered vandalism.
- There was an interesting article on ZDNet last week about Hewlett Packard licensing its patented microneedle technology used in common inkjet printers to be used in transdermal patches to deliver a time-controlled release of drugs to patients. This information could be added to articles such as route of administration or drug delivery.

Here are a few updates in the realm of WikiProject Pharmacology:
- The Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week has been changed to Collaboration of the Month, based on current participation levels. It is also more likely that articles collaborated on for one month are more likely to achieve featured quality than articles worked on for only a week or two.
- The current Collaboration of the Month for November is Receptor antagonist. Please take a look at that article and contribute to it if you get a chance. Ideally, the article should adhere to the featured article criteria.
- Therapies for multiple sclerosis is currently a featured article candidate. If you are familiar with the featured article criteria, please visit WP:FAC and review the article.
- Anabolic steroid is the wikiproject's newest Featured Article, having been promoted on October 8, 2007.
- Theobromine was delisted as a Good Article. The Peer review and GA reassessment discussions provide suggestions on improvement. Muscle relaxant was recently reviewed for Good Article status, but not promoted. Please see the full review full review here for details.
Dr. Cash 22:11, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Article rename
[edit]On the basis of your talk page comment (and another voice and my own opinion) I went ahead and renamed encapsulation (pharmacology) to your suggestion capsule (pharmacy). I also tweaked pill (pharmacy) for consistency. I also updated about 30 links to the original title. MaxEnt (talk) 22:30, 22 November 2007 (UTC)
typo template
[edit]All user pages with the template {{User:Galaxiaad/typo}} are automatically put into the U section of Category:Wikipedians on the Typo Team because they are all starting with "User:". Can you fix this? I know nothing about how to create a template, but my guess is that this could be fixed by adding the attribute |{{PAGENAME}} to <includeonly>[[Category:Wikipedians on the Typo Team]]</includeonly>.

Homatropine methylbromide
[edit]You changed that to redirect to Homatropine. "Just a salt of Homatropine". This is not true. It is not a salt, but the quaternary ammonium base "Methylhomatropine". It is a completely different drug from Homatropine, as it does not cross the blood-brain barries and has no central effects, only peripheral effects as a spasmolytic for e.g. the stomach of gall bladder. So this redirect is wrong. 70.137.151.84 (talk) 22:15, 12 July 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of Bergamont
[edit]If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.
A tag has been placed on Bergamont requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a clear copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)
[edit]Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization consisting of over 28,000 volunteers in more than 100 countries. The collaboration was formed to organize medical scholarship in a systematic way in the interests of evidence-based research: the group conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.
Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account. Thank you Cochrane!

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Disambiguation link notification for September 12
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Paul Stanton (Politician), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Libertarian Party. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

"9 to 5 (Disambiguation)" listed at Redirects for discussion
[edit]An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect 9 to 5 (Disambiguation) and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 August 24#9 to 5 (Disambiguation) until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

The article Revia (disambiguation) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Disambiguation page not required (WP:ONEOTHER). Primary topic redirect points to an article with a hatnote to the only other use.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
This bot DID NOT nominate any of your contributions for deletion; please refer to the history of each individual page for details. Thanks, FastilyBot (talk) 09:00, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
