[edit] Ronald A. Katz

Ed, I put in a short article on Ronald A. Katz. For reasons I don't quite understand, it's been nominated for speedy deletion. Could you please take a look and give me your honest assessment?

Oh, and I'll take a look at the patent templates and add my 2 cents on their recommended deletion.--Nowa 01:01, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Category:Wikipedian intellectual property lawyers?

Care to add yourself to that category? Cheers! bd2412 T 04:26, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ronald A. Katz

Thanks for the heads up. After reading the talk page, I've elected to remove my speedy tag. Happy wikipedia-ing. Cornell Rockey 23:39, 22 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Registration service

I've just created Registration service. Needs some improvement, but seems to be a common enough scam to be notable. What you think? GDallimore 11:31, 24 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] User page

I like your user page alot Edcolins. It's visually and substantively pleasing. I am pleased. -Taco325i 23:17, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Oxytocin

No problem. Keep up the good work—I've cited the statement you tagged on Sertraline as well. Unattributed statements are easy to miss; I'm glad someone is worried about them :) Fvasconcellos 20:56, 27 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Nice meeting you - I am also trying to do this: [1] :) Regards. --Bhadani 04:37, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Who

Nice to see I am not alone: Google search on "According to some" returns 3230 hits - not all are lacking references, but most do. Gosh. There is also [2], [3], and so on... I have discovered this funny (and I think quite useful) task of identifying unattributed statements in articles. --Edcolins 14:08, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Yes you are not alone. If we have to build the project and make this a true encyclopedia, proper attributions are surely required. i saw a who on one of the pages under my watch, Nalanda and got the idea to do this so that editors having information are prompted to attribute the sources of the relevant contents. --Bhadani 16:12, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] patent template

Ed,

There is a discussion at User_talk:GDallimore#Patents_for_sources_in_Atomic_line_filter regarding potential improvements for the patent cite template. You might want to weigh in.--Nowa 22:16, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

Guys, you might want to take a look at ths discussion I've started on Template_talk:Harvard_reference#Expansion_of_template_-_HELP.21 to try to improve patent citing in Wikipedia.GDallimore 04:36, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Deleted patent templates

Ed,

Looks like I missed the discussion of deletion for EU etc. patent delection. Are the results acceptable? --Nowa 22:19, 28 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RFW

There's little to resolve about that, RFW really is pretty much inactive at the moment. It's not a bad idea per se but the community doesn't seem interested in it for now. I've removed the link from WP:VAND, but would of course have no objection to reviving this process. >Radiant< 10:15, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] RE: AfD

I had nominated it for a speedy, not actually edited it. ffm yes? 22:21, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks

Thanks for deleting the category in Patsy Sherman. I should have done that or started the category. Here is a WikiCookie

[edit] Carole E. Handler

Ms. Handler is notable, and perhaps would be if she were a self promoter. Her legal work as mentioned in the book, COMIC WARS, allowed Perlmutter and Arad to win the prized rights to X-Men and Spiderman after Carl Icahn, a brilliant financier, and [Ron Perelman]] a tough fighter, both took a stab at cutting up Marvel as they have done with countless others. The fact that neither were successful as a result of a flaw in both of their legal team's work, and that this IP attorney uncovered it, sounds like something worthwhile. The fact that she never went public with her own info and sought a story should not exclude her. The role was written up the the New York Law Journal, but to access the article requires access I just don't have. Additionally, and unfortunately, the Spiderman court records were sealed at the time of the litigation and were only unsealed in 2003, many years after the victory, leaving only references as you see them to be made, and not a full fledged story (Business Wire; Apr 21, 2003). I also noticed that you are a patent attorney, so you may also appreciate the notability of this case.Juda S. Engelmayer 13:58, 11 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Serious Conflict of Interest

You level a pretty brutal charge. My past affiliation does not make me an interested party for any kind of gain what so ever, in fact, my experience in knowing Carole should not be adversely affect my ability to post a piece on someone I genuinely believe is qualified to be on Wikipedia. She is not a client, I have no financial interest and, in fact, have had little contact with her since my departure in June '06. The fact that you can raise that without having any evidence other than information that I have never once hidden, as my affiliations are pretty much an open book. I posted an article on Joachim Prinz based on my experience at AJCongress, and I edit articles based on my knowledge from research I have done, articles I have written or people whom I have met throughout my career. I am not sure Wikipedia is meant to exclude anyone from writing from knowledge and experience - and I do not believe that my article on Handler amounts to promoting her for any reason, as I know of none at all other than a genuine sense that her past work merits it. Juda S. Engelmayer 00:13, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Patent Attorney

She is indeed a patent attorney, but practices more Intellectual Property than patent law, similar but also different. I could take her out of Patents and put her in IP or antitrust.Juda S. Engelmayer 21:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Catastrophe bond

Ed, I have an anonymous user who has twice deleted the section on patents in Catastrophe bond. Could you take a look and possibly mediate?--Nowa 18:58, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] PCT AfD

So, following your extensive edits, I'll withdraw my AfD for the PCT page. I'm not sure of the etiquette behind this, though? Can I simply remove the AfD tag, or does it still have to be closed off properly? If you know what to do, feel free to do it with my blessing! GDallimore 14:28, 20 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Kamil Idris

thank you for advise. Since my source was just the leaked internal audit as you said, I can't add more. I have to put it first on web and it seems that it will be harmful for some friends. Really strange that in the world of free information we can not get the correct information. I have absolutely no problem with Dr driss, but I am scandalised that we still cover such act in the united nations (and II know that there is much more cases....). Thanks —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Saffeh (talk • contribs).

[edit] Caserma Ederle definition question...

I answered it on the talk page. I hope the definition I gave there helps. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cjewell (talk • contribs) 14:10, 23 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] OK to excerpt from text from patents into wikipedia article?

Ed, Do you know if it's OK to excerpt text from published US patents and/or patent applications into Wikipedia?--Nowa 22:32, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] ABE

The "ABE" redirect is not "much more useful" going to a disambig page for some word. "ABE" in all caps is not likely to be typed in as a mistake for Abe. ABE in all caps is most likely to refer to an IATA airport code. That disambiguation page is way, way too long to be useful. I shouldn't have to scroll down half a page to reach the top Google results for "ABE." FCYTravis 20:10, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:WatermaelBoitsfort.png

Thanks for uploading Image:WatermaelBoitsfort.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, then you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, then their copyright should also be acknowledged.

As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self-no-disclaimers}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 11:02, 4 March 2007 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shyam (T/C) 11:02, 4 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: World Intellectual Property Organization

It isn't an edit war. We are involved in a problem with a sockpuppeteer. We are only reverting the edits of the indef blocked socks. Contact admins Deskana and Yamla for more information. Also see Wikipedia:Suspected sock puppets/TJ Spike‎ and Wikipedia:Requests for checkuser/IP check-- bulletproof 3:16 20:39, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Check it again [4]. It was reverted to the last version by TJ Spyke. I wasn't looking at the history page at the time of the revert. I was looking the sock's contrib page while reverting. -- bulletproof 3:16 22:01, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
