[edit] Moin

God'n Dag ok, Tameeria. Du snackst ja Platt. 'N Dithmarser Deern (ik haap, dat -a an't Enn vun dien Brukernaam hett mi nu nich in'n Tüdel bröcht). Villicht hest ja mal Lust, ok op de plattdüütsche Wikipedia langs to kieken. Poor Artikels to Ameriko (gifft ja veel Exil-Plattdüütsche güntsiet den groten Sood) oder mientwegen ok wat to Ditmarsen köönt wi good bruken. Wenn du Lust hest. --::Slomox:: >< 17:22, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

Moin ok! Jo, Plattdüütsch gifft dat ok in Ameriko. Ick bün eegentlich een Hamborger Deern, aver opwussen in Büsum an de Waterkant. ;) Ick hebb ni veel Platt snackt, aver verstoahn kann ick dat good. Ick hebb nu ok een niege Plattdüütsch Brukersiet. - tameeria 17:51, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Feuerzangenbowle

Nice work but see my categories now on Die Feuerzangenbowle. Everything is perfect but it is very important you use four categories like that in particualar. All the best Ernst Stavro Blofeld 22:56, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! I had just uploaded the article and hadn't looked for categories yet. I'm amazed how quick Wikipedia editors are in noticing what I'm doing! :-) - tameeria 23:01, 25 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Protein Box

Hi. You seem to be familiar with the english wikipedia network. Could you help that not only the PubMed and OMIM links end up in the protein box templates. In europe we use Ensembl. They have an ensembl ID for every protein. The web page is much better in many cases then the NCBI. See e. g. the box in the german and english Heterochromatin Protein 1 page. Thank you. TraumB 17:11, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi TraumB, I'm not sure how to change the templates. I just tried to simply add the Ensembl accession to an existing protein box, but it doesn't show up. I saw someone already mentioned it at the protein box template talk page. Maybe someone there can tweak the template to get the Ensembl links working? There's also a more elaborate version of the protein box (see Protein info box) and a general request at the Wikiproject Molecular and Cellular Biology to upgrade to the new protein box style. However, it apparently doesn't include Ensembl accession either. - tameeria 19:23, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wonderful work! :)

Hi tameeria, I just wanted to say how much I appreciate all your work tagging the MCB articles. Way to go! :D Willow 04:26, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Seconded. Very nice work! Opabinia regalis 04:59, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Thanks! :) It might be that I tagged a few that don't quite belong in MCB since I was going so fast (e.g. obscure synthetic-organic compounds), so feel free to untag them if you find any where I screwed up. - tameeria 06:13, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] MCB template

Hi Tameeria. I see you are adding a template to a lot of talkpages. I have done that in the past with the {{chemicals}} template, but someone told me to ask a bot to do that. Saves a lot of time and effort (though letting a bot do it is bad for your edit count). User:BetacommandBot is going to do the rest for me; I don't know if you are working from a list, but maybe it is a plan to ask BetacommandBot to do your template in the same run. Hope this helps, and see you around! --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 23:29, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi! About the templates—if you do continue to do them by hand (or, I suppose, even if you get a bot to do it) it would help if you could use an Edit summary. I keep seeing article talk pages light up on my watchlist without any indication of why. Even if you just paste the template into the edit summary box as well as the talk page, that would suffice. Cheers! TenOfAllTrades(talk) 15:26, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

Oops, I'll try to remember using the summary. I'm not sure how to use a bot though. I'm now mostly tagging while browsing and finding pages that have not yet been tagged, so I don't really have a set list to work from. Thanks for the tips though. - tameeria 15:48, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

A bot would work from a list (in my case he will work from Wikipedia:WikiProject Chemicals/AlphabeticalList). User:BetacommandBot is doing that quite often, you ask his operator that you want a certain template on every talkpage in the list, and he adds them where it is not yet available. But if you don't have a list, there is not much choice. Happy editing, anyway! --Dirk Beetstra ^{T C} 15:56, 17 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hi

Hi, I am wondering if you could take a look at my changes to the Dna Replication page. I expanded sections on prokaryotic (using E. coli) and general eukaryotic DNA replication. Also, there is another page on DNA replication that is different than the one I did. Thanks!

[edit] Köhler

Hallo Tamaeeria, willst du den Köhler nicht auch auf de.wiki ehren ? und wie wärs mit DYK ?!? Grüße übern Teich--Symposiarch 08:40, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

Ja, ich finde, der sollte schon auch auf der deutschen Wikipedia einen Artikel haben. Im Moment suche ich noch nach einem frei verfügbaren Foto. Ich habe ein Email ans Zeiss Archiv geschickt, um nachzufragen, ob deren Köhler-Foto "public domain" ist. Das würde sich dann auch gut für DYK eignen. Ich hoffe, dass ich eine Antwort bekomme. - tameeria 01:30, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Expulsion of Germans after World War II / The Potsdam Deal

I don't know how much time you spend in the historical corners of wiki, but (just in case it's news to you) there's an article at Expulsion of Germans after World War II which I find informative and much of which is relatively wiki-balanced. Then again I accept that mentioning the subject at all, in much of the anglopshere, still seems to run counter to some informally invoked taboo. And, sadly, ethnic cleansing is only the latest euphemism for a very traditional form of human behaviour.

Honestly, I usually try to stick mostly with medieval history and avoid poking too much into the WWII history of Germany on Wikipedia. I'm not really keen on getting involved with predictably controversial topics, especially if it touches on my own family history. All four of my grandparents, plus my dad who was a toddler at the time, are expellees (from Danzig, East Prussia, Silesia, and Sudeten). My dad and my grandma actually went to visit his birth house in Tapiau at some point after "the East" opened up to travelers. He wanted to revisit an important part of our family history that he remembered little about and bring some closure to it for my grandmother. The Polish family living in the house was ecstatic to "finally" meet the Germans who used to live there. (All their neighbors had already had visitors from Germany.) My grandma however cried throughout most of the trip and was probably even more traumatized afterwards than before. Some of her old furniture was even still there. I find it really sad that a propaganda term like recovered territories was apparently the first article about the former eastern territories of Germany to pop up on Wikipedia. I'm rather taken aback by the apparent suggestion at Talk:Historical Eastern Germany that attempts to create a NPOV article on the topic are nothing but a POV fork on the propaganda term. I'm hoping that maybe I misunderstood that comment, but I wasn't sure exactly what to make out of it. I can sense a certain anti-German attitude on Wikipedia when it comes to distinguishing historic fact from POV. - tameeria 20:17, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

since you have become embroiled in this topic, I would like to point you to user:Jadger/draft expulsions if you would like a sandbox to help improve this article. I agree with you on Recovered Territories, it is a huge travesty, that I have been working on having merged with historical eastern Germany or deleted altogether. there is one or two lines in the lead that say it is a propoganda term, then the rest of the article is a bunch of lies and non-related information to justify the illegal, immoral and outright undescribably horrible things committed against your family and other Germans from the East. I hope for your sake that you don't get embroiled in this type of topic as I have become, it is like quicksand that sucks you in.

--Jadger 08:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

My two cents' worth: The term "Recovered Territories" as employed by Poland is pure Communist-era propaganda. Like most big lies, it contains a kernal of truth, however distorted: The Oder-Neisse territories were technically or theoretically under the sway of the Piasts prior to the age of German eastward expansion and colonization. Polish nationalists use this as a pretext for claiming that the territories always rightly "belonged" to Poland, no matter who lived there. As if the Poles (or pre-Polish West Slavs) had been there for all time.

Of course, this is like saying, for example, that western England rightfully belongs to Denmark, or that Mexico should "recover" most of the western U.S. And it ignores the fact that many if not most of the Piast dukes, and the Church, collaborated with German princes and dukes in the process of colonization.

I believe that many Poles still accept this argument, essentially a relic of Stalinism, because they know deep within themselves that uprooting millions of human beings was wrong, and they can't bear the thought that Poland ever could have been complicit in such a crime against humanity. And of course, Poland was Hitler's first and most ravaged victim, so to a degree one must understand the Polish attitude. What bothers me most is not the Poles but the uncritical acceptance of the "Recovered Territories" myth in the West, and the ignorance, especially in the U.S., of what was done to the Germans after the war.

Sorry I'm so long-winded. Sca 00:08, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

I'm done with this. Please keep discussions regarding these topics off my talk page and move on to the respective articles' talk pages. I've stated my opinions and I've noticed I'm starting to repeat myself and my comments are starting to disappear without an explanation why, so this is quickly turning into a stupid waste of time. Arguing is not what I came to Wikipedia for. For the sake of not getting pulled in any deeper, I am pulling out of this and I would appreciate it if this is the last comment on the topic on my talk page. Thanks. - tameeria 00:15, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Metabolism FAC

Hi there, Tameeria. I've seen you've been putting a lot of work into photosynthesis-related topics lately. If you had time, could you have a look through this article and see if I've covered photosynthesis and related topics accurately? Thanks. p.s. if you had any more general comments, the nomination page is here. Thank you. TimVickers 23:27, 29 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi again. The article is now an FA. I wondered if I could list you on the talk page as somebody who could help with "verification and sources"? TimVickers 15:42, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi Tim, great job on the article! Metabolism certainly is one of the most daunting topics in biochemistry and one that many biology students struggle with. It's really nice to see it covered with a featured article in Wikipedia. :) Hopefully I'll get some time this weekend to look over it. And sure, I could help with verification and sources as I have access to textbooks and academic journals. - tameeria 19:23, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

Great! I've added you on the talk page. Thank you. TimVickers 16:12, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
