I notice you have a lot of interest in Otto Warburg. At Orthomolecular medicine, I've moved your Otto Warburg sentence into the early History and requested a citation. Since he is not well known to many in English speaking countries, several selected links or references in the sentence might be useful.--TheNautilus 15:42, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Saw your talk on the Nautilus's page. There are pictures available of Warburg at the History of Medicine The Stroll 04:54, 13 January 2007 (UTC) I have no idea of the picture you uploaded, as it not posted on the page. I just put the code in the the page for his picture. You need to place the name of the image that you uploaded in the code at the top of the page,for the image to appear. Most of the images at NLM are in the public domain. I have only come across one questionable photo, and I contacted the photographers family, and all they wanted was credit for the photo. NLM has clarified the status of the images since I did this a number of years ago. Next to each image is a link that you can see if there is a copyright or any resitrictions. Government information at NLM Web sites is in the public domain. Click on "View Authority" and it will tell you if there is a copyright. I just checked all his pictures and there is no copyright. However, the NLM requests that credit be given to the library for the image. Hope this helps. The Stroll 16:39, 21 January 2007 (UTC)The Stroll 16:55, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dean Burk

FYI - HHS / NIH Press release 1/24/2007

--News National Cancer Institute

Positive results of a phase III cancer clinical trial in an uncommon form of leukemia were released today. The results showed that adult patients with previously untreated acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) who had standard chemotherapy to induce remission of their disease, and then received the chemotherapy drug arsenic trioxide to maintain remission, had a significantly better event-free survival (more patients free of leukemia) and better overall survival than those who received only standard chemotherapy. The trial was sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI), part of the National Institutes of Health, and was led by one of its Cooperative Clinical Trials Groups -- the Cancer and Leukemia Group B (CALGB).

[edit] Meet Fyslee

Re [1],[2]. Meet User talk:Fyslee, chief Wikipedia proponent (AFAIK) in/of Stephen Barrett, Quackwatch, NCAHF articles and their various "interests" here. A critic of most things chemical, unless specifically blessed by Steve, frequent epithets for LP. You just walked into Fys' pet POV fork from Hair analysis, which was blessed just the same way the Athenians persuaded Socrates to take that last drink, so he will definitely be watchful. The closer you get to QW favorites and references, the more objective he can get.
WP:RS is a policy about what counts, and what is desired, as Reliable Sources at Wikipedia. Orthomed has been seeded with three very negative references, two containing, directly counterfactual[3] or seriously misrepresented material, the other less so. Nevertheless, they are a testament to conventional "something", and Quackwatchers' might, that they are still so prominent despite a lack of peer review and being full of dated, biased, misrepresented material. I have not really pushed the issue to completion before, simply getting the worst POV out of new readers' faces (review the edit history, Talk & archives to see what I mean). Fyslee doesn't seem to understand that Barrett's hair analysis reviews did not account apples to apples on techniques for interlab comparisons and variations before penning his condemnation(s), widely flaunted everywhere by QW et al as "quackery".
Fyslee apparently is claiming that the journal you cited is not adequately peer reviewed for the article & its author. But he makes mistakes and has bad hair days. WP:V defines a source that someone can verify. When these things occur, read the quoted policies, consider others that might apply, and then look closely to decide whether you are being smoked or bluffed.--TheNautilus 05:15, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
What I suggest to you both is WP:AGF. Shot info 10:32, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
I do assume good faith, even great faith, on the part of some other editors. This is a frank educational & familiarization discussion.
Alterrabe, the speedy PTC indicates this may be one of those "bad hair" (literally) weekends with Fys, you have to persist to exist here.--TheNautilus 15:09, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
And I recommend WP:NPA. BTW, User "Fys" and "Fyslee" are two different users. I suggest you use the correct name to avoid any unfortunate errors. Shot info 01:43, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Excuse me, was I talking to you (earlier, at the outset)? WP:NPA?? Jumping on an obvious contraction and familiarity as a source of error? Recognizing that a specific subject, hair related articles, might be drifting into contention? You are quite free to trawl elsewhere for business or stimulation.--TheNautilus 09:25, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, did not realise that the behaviour was similar hey I'Naut :-) Shot info 01:10, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Otto_H_Warburg_with_Warburg_manometer.jpg

Thank you for uploading Image:Otto_H_Warburg_with_Warburg_manometer.jpg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can determine the license and the source of the image. If you know this information, then you can add a copyright tag to the image description page.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. MECU≈talk 00:12, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
