I'm updating the page and want a newer-style image, if that works for you. crl620 03:23, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Category:NMDA antagonists

Hi there! I noticed that you added Category:NMDA antagonists to a few relevant articles -- thanks! But NMDA has no antagonists, as it's just a simple molecule. What you no doubt meant was NMDA receptor antagonists. I snuck an "R" into the category name, so now we have Category:NMDAR antagonists, and I'm listing Category:NMDA antagonists on WP:CFD. Best, David Iberri | Talk 18:17, Nov 21, 2004 (UTC)

Wow, that's surprising that one would be used as frequently as the other. If that's the case, then we should still prefer the proper scientific name over the less accurate one. But you're right, Category:NMDA antagonists should redirect to Category:NMDAR antagonists -- I was having trouble figuring out how to do this with categories (as I noticed that the "page move" feature didn't work with categories, I was a bit hesitant to do a redirect). --David Iberri | Talk 20:17, Nov 21, 2004 (UTC)

Hmmm, I just tried to redirect from Category:NMDA antagonists using the standard #REDIRECT syntax, but that didn't do the job (it just shows "1. REDIRECT Category:NMDAR antagonists" when you view the category page). There's a question about category redirection at m:Help talk:Category#Category Redirection, but no answer's in sight. Also, from [1] I get the idea that category redirection still isn't implemented. If you have any ideas about a workaround, that'd be great! --David Iberri | Talk 20:38, Nov 21, 2004 (UTC)

I just did the Google searches for myself, just before you posted, and found the same thing. Incidentally a PubMed search for "NMDA receptor antagonist" wins out over "NMDA antagonist" by a large margin, so I think we're safe with Category:NMDA receptor antagonists. Thanks for the help. --David Iberri | Talk 20:57, Nov 21, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

• Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
• Multi-Licensing Guide
• Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

[edit] STPP

In the future, rather than creating an article X that says "X stands for Y", create a redirect from X directly to Y. In the case of STPP, it was redirected to sodium tripolyphosphate with the markup #REDIRECT [[sodium tripolyphosphate]]. -- Cyrius|✎ 02:27, 12 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] D-threose and D-erythrulose

Hi there, I don't suppose you could do me a favour and generate two images similar to D-erythrose Fischer.png?

The structures are at threose and erythrulose - I know that I ought to figure out how to do it myself, but I am getting too old to learn such new tricks.

• Well done!

[edit] Schematic_diagram_of_the_human_eye

I just stumbled upon this great illustration: Image:Schematic_diagram_of_the_human_eye.png. It says created with Sodipodi. Could you upload an SVG version by any chance? --Dschwen 22:22, 25 February 2006 (UTC)
