[edit] Glad to see you around

I'm glad you are helping here. I guess it is as needed as ever (I am not that much active these days - low on time, burnout). Pavel Vozenilek 23:23, 20 April 2006 (UTC)

My current watchlist is at 0.05% of old times. - heh, I stopped to look on it at all. Someone had written one or two applications to fight vandals more effectively. I didn't try them (looking on screenshots I decided that it is too complicated for me) but perhaps they are usable. I am not aware of new features in MediaWiki to deal with vandals or keep quality up. Pavel Vozenilek 22:23, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] A landslide victory for The JPS (aka RFA thanks)

Hey, Rl, thank you so much for your vote and comments in my RfA, which passed with an overwhelming consensus of 95/2/2. I was very surprised and flattered that the community has entrusted me with these lovely new toys. I ripped open the box and started playing with them as soon as I got them, and I've already had the pleasure of deleting random nonsense/attacks/copyvios tonight.
If I ever do anything wrong, or can help in some way, please feel free to drop me a line on my talk page, and I will do my best to correct my mistake, or whatever...
Now, to that bottle of wine waiting for me...

[edit] Avoiding Information Loss

Hey, when you removed a dead external link from Legion (software), you also deleted the information that Avaki was commercializing Legion. I fixed that up with info about the demise of Avaki, but please be careful when removing bad external links that you haven't throw away useful info. Greg 06:19, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

Thanks so much for clarifying. - CrazyRussian talk/contribs/email 15:38, 12 May 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Dylan Thomas Poem

Yes it is rather suspect but i found a rather obscure reference to an early poem with a similar name in a book about the early life of Dylan Thomas. I just assumed that this was the poem and good faith by all means replace the box. The more i look at the poem the more suspect it seems to become but if it is a forgery it is very skillfully done i'm sure you'll agree. As to the source i'm I can't so placing the box back is probably the wisest course of action. We should open a discussion on the talk page Talk:Dylan Thomas' Changing World. thanks Cicero Dog 14:10, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Examples of Blindekuh replication

Thanks for your interest in my diagrams, i look forward to seeing them in articles! I exported these at twice the size so they'd look better on their own. It's a shame OmniGraffle doesn't have good SVG support. Foobaz·o< 00:54, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

I took your advice and uploaded new versions of these images without the text. Good suggestion. Foobaz·o< 11:17, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] War of the Roses

Thanks for fixing it and pointing out the right way to do it. This is my first fix of this nature but it really needed to be done. Thans again! PeregrineV 21:01, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] JAMA and AMA

Thanks. Re: the flaks, I did notice their unskillful hands at work. Well, I'm sitting on top of a treasure trove of published resources from which to improve these articles. No doubt, I will have some battles with the flaks. What amazed me about these articles is that not one word about any of the multiple financial and ethical scandals involving the AMA over the past 20 years has gotten into these articles. Hope to correct that soon. Askolnick 11:27, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

Rodger. Thanks. Askolnick 11:35, 11 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Welcome

Thanks for the welcome. If you are interested in such things, we should probably compare notes. If you email me at the email icon on my home page, and give me an email or phone no. outside of this system, I'll explain why I am being cryptic.

The main problem I have with Wiki is of finding by accident interesting stuff that needs editing :)--DGG 19:16, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks- impact factor

Hi R1,

Thanks for your welcome to Wikipedia-- I am indeed new at this. I was wondering if you could respond to the discussion I left on the IMPACT FACTOR talk/discussion page. Thanks for suggesting that perhaps we can include the tabulation in Wiki on the impact factor page only. For neutrality reasons, perhaps, instead of me (for impartiality), you could include the links below back into the page. Thanks.

A tabulation of the 2005 ISI Impact Factors for leading medical and science journals, tabulated by major scientific and clinical disciplines, can be found here:

I do not want to get into a fight, but I will revert. I defer to your knowedge of WP, but I do know copyright. I have suggested to our friend who does not sign his name that he send his blog to ISI and ask for permission. That\'s the direct and honest way to do it. Further, I believe one of the other editors said a link to one's own blog is never ok, on other grounds. DGG 06:28, 19 September 2006 (UTC)


Hi Rl,

Just as an FYI, I've pasted this following discussion on DGG's page...

Thanks for your advice DGG. I will take your advice. And because I'm a newbie to WIKI, I apologize that I yet know all the standard protocols to everything yet. But as a side discussion, In the past when I have published in JAMA (3x times), I have noticed that certain other journals such as BMJ have reproduced my figures from my JAMA article (SAME EXACT DATA!) and republished them in BMJ with only stylistic edits. However, according to BMJ practice, is techinically legal because the information is presented in a slightly different layout-- even though its the same information. Thus, it would seem that the re-arranging of information layout, even if its the same data, does not constitute copyright infringement - at least that's how the BMJ and British Medical Association interprets it. If you want to see what I mean, I can email you my JAMA article as well as BMJ's reproduction (which only acknowledges "adapted from", and doesnt say "permission from" JAMA). In any case, this is an interesting discussion. Thanks for all your help DGG! Epiding 06:58, 19 September 2006 (UTC)Epiding 07:12, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] yes, pax

agreed., Rl. we have enough problems keepinng it up in one place, and some of the angry parts might merely have been simultaneous arguments. Let's get this right, personally and in the article DGG 07:56, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re Jeffery Bennett

Thanks for putting the "non-notable" tag on this article. I had exchanged talk-page posts with the editor of this article the day it was created, so didn't feel it would demonstrate the requisite impartiality for me to do it myself. Risker 19:15, 19 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup on Automatically_Tuned_Linear_Algebra_Software

I have been working to cleanup Automatically_Tuned_Linear_Algebra_Software. I see that you have edited that page in the past. If you would be so good as to check out the latest version and contribute to or comment on the article, it would be most appreciated. Cheers, -- Jake 19:37, 5 October 2006 (UTC)
