[edit] Re: THANK YOU

I cant than you enough for putting up a photo of SIES High school in Wikipedia. You may have gather a lot of SIES Wikipedians to compile and full feature article about the SIES group of Institutions.

Hello,

Thank you for your appreciation. Are you from SIES too? I have done my schooling from SIES HS, Matunga (Jr. K.G. to 10^th std.), and passed 10^th in March 1990...so I thought there should be something about SIES on wikipedia. However, I have not been particularly successful in getting in touch with any SIES ex-students, let alone SIES wikipedians :-(...

[edit] Regarding copyrights

Hey there. I noticed that a couple of your articles were imported from other sources, and have had to remove them. If you own their copyrights, please say so on their respective talk pages and on Wikipedia:Copyright problems. Whether these are in violation of copyright or not, we welcome your further contributions. Thanks! - Vague | Rant 01:59, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)

That's great, I'm glad you want to contribute to the Wikipedia. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any information on Expasy or Ensembl, but you're welcome to write some yourself! Anyway, I'm glad to have you aboard. - Vague | Rant 06:02, Dec 24, 2004 (UTC)

Hmm, which sort of links do you mean? Internal, or external? I'll explain both:

"[[Article]]" creates an internal link to "Article", which looks like "Article".

"[http://www.google.com/ Google]" creates an external link to "Google", which looks like "Google".

I hope that helps. - Vague | Rant 10:23, Dec 25, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Image removal of GN Ramachandran: pl clarify

I have cited the source while uploading the image

Nattu 16:34, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

This is in regards to image Image:GN Ramachandran.jpg which was deleted. The reason for deletion was that the copyright tag was {{magazinecover}}, but the image was probably not a magazine cover. That tag is a fair use tag and has very specific copyright requirements. Fair use images are not freely licensed, so we can't use them in any way we want, but only in very specific ways as laid out in copyright law. For an example of a magazine cover image used correctly see Allure (magazine). In that case the image is a cover, and the image is being used as an example of the content of the article. We can talk about magazines, but we can't re-purpose their photography without their licensing the work to us. If you have any questions about that let me know. The fair use article is fairly informative also. - cohesion 16:51, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Featured articles

I suspect you have confused featured article review (where you nominated that article - it's strictly for looking over current featured articles) with wikipedia:featured article candidates (which is where potential featured articles are nominated) Raul654 04:09, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Hi - I had a look at the article sequence profiling tool that you nominated as a featured article candidate, and fixed some of the wiki syntax/did a little copyediting at the beginning. However, if you're interested in seeing a bioinformatics-related featured article, I might suggest working on expanding something that is a broader/"bigger" topic from a non-specialist's perspective, like sequence alignment. The profiling article is useful but there probably just isn't enough information of interest to non-specialists to expand it to the typical featured-article length and style.

[edit] List of Madras Tamil slang words

Hello Dr. Ganesan,

You had questioned whether the list above is of encyclopediac nature. I suppose all aspects of a culture whether high or low can be enclopediac in nature as long as it meets the criteria established for this project. Tamil being a conservative and diglossic language, the natural reaction of native speakers is to look down upon such documentation, but in reality this is how a language flows.

[edit] Sequence profiling tool

Hi! I brought up the question of whether Sequence profiling tool is a neologism on the talk page. I figured you might want to know about this as the original creator of the article. You are welcome to respond there if you like. Grouse 08:05, 2 November 2006 (UTC)
