Re: your comment when you saved Arachnoid granulation. You do yourself an injustice, you want to see some of the pages that get saved when they start on here... -- Graham :) | Talk 09:44, 17 Mar 2004 (UTC)

haha, well maybe. it's late at night here and i wanted a quick article to get me back into wikipedia. I should be thinking properly tomorrow. :-) tb

About the photo of "Polish" scalpel: it's a Wikipedia - so that photo is Public Domain and You don't have to ask for using it on antoher open suorce project (like English Wikipedia). You don't have to make a link there saying where it came from. The translation of the sentence below the photo (You can change it): The surgical blade with the handle. Sorry for my English - if I've written sth bad I wasn't going to do it. Greetings from Czestochowa. --Reytan 11:03, 21 Mar 2004 (UTC)~

Hey, nice work on Joey Scarbury. Funny that William Katt, space aliens, Robert Culp, and Connie Selleca didnt get stubs, and Joey Scarbury does. My faith in humanity is restored. -SV(talk) 01:52, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Thanks, i just dow... bought the single before i wrote that, and thought he could use an article. Dunno about the baseball playing thing though, i read that on one internet site and haven't confirmed it. T 02:01, 27 Mar 2004 (UTC)

I wondered whether you might prefer to add your own extra description to the Dunedin panorama, but I see your blue list is still shorter than your red list so you have plenty of other chores! Surprising that WP doesn't have bruise, bruises, or bruising pages when it has less painful things like scar; it also has itch, but that's an album at present!! 8-D :Robin Patterson 01:18, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Briefly noted your OTHER talk page and got an interesting response
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User_talk:202.180.83.7

I've had that list for a very long time :-) I plan to move it to Requested Articles when it's a bit shorter. It's a pure coincidence I actually saw your Dunedin comment on the recent changes. I don't have the pics on my watchlist or anything, and i'd just connected to check my email. I'm sure you're geography of the city is better than mine, I only know the shops and pubs! Thanks for profiling it on Zeal. T 03:10, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Hi TristanB, my compliments on your work on automated analyser. I'm trying to bring some improvement to the medical articles on Wikipedia, especially now the Wikiprojects are pretty defunct. Are you a doctor? At any rate, all medically inclined are invited to join the WikiDoc effort. JFW | T@lk 13:40, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your compliments on the page, it was a bit of a rushed effort, I was trying to make some pages that my friend Idl could help with. I think i'd write the page a bit differently now.
I don't like giving too much about my life away here, but i'm actually a medical student. I've also worked in a hospital laboratory in microbiology, core haem (i.e. non-specialised), and core and spec biochem. I currently work part-time (after class) in the haem dept. in a community lab.
I'll have a look at the WikiDoc page, and I'll put my ~~~ down if it appeals, thanks JFW. T 22:51, 15 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Hi Tristanb. It would be great to have you participate there. You have done an enormous amount of work on medicine articles, and your experience and knowledge would help a lot in getting things organised some more. I am afraid medicine is one of the most underdeveloped fields that Wikipedia has (compare with pop culture - shudder...) and your help would certainly be appreciated. Best, Kosebamse 12:36, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)

Thanks Kosebamse, I do intend to participate. I just never got round to putting my name down! :-D But i'll join as soon as I have some free time. (should be soon) Thanks again, T 22:25, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)


Please consider joining the Wikidocs Wikipedia:WikiProject Clinical medicine Kd4ttc 03:30, 22 May 2004 (UTC)

My name's already in the list! :-D But i'm sort of working independently at the moment.
I'm currently writing more about cranial nerves, adding sections nuclei and testing to a few of them (often not logged in). I've probably done enough of that now though. Will possibly contribute more brain stuff, and maybe a bit of endocrine or reproduction/development topics. T 00:56, 30 May 2004 (UTC)

[edit] MAHA

Hi Tristan, we haven't come accross each other's edits for quite a while! I was just wondering if microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (i.e. bite cells/schistocytes) are picked up automatically by automated analysers. Do you remember getting flagged blood films because of this??
Good work on writing about all those muscles. Wikipedia is anatomically grossly underdeveloped. JFW | T@lk 16:57, 12 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Hi JFW, I've been taking a break from wikipedia for a while (it's been a busy past few weeks). In answer to your question, the Sysmex XE-2100 (and no doubt others) has a flag: RBC fragments. This is important because (I think) they can be mistaken for platelets with some automated techniques.
Where I work, we make a film on everything with this flag, and a technologist will look for funny-looking cells (and describe them properly). Also, if a reticulocyte count is added, (done on the same machine) it'll report a more accurate (optical) platelet count.
Hopefully I'll start writing here again a bit more frequently. I've been wasting my computer time with my own wiki and other projects. :-) Tristanb

[edit] Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 1000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. – Ram-Man (comment) (talk)[[]] 13:45, Dec 9, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Pandunedin large.jpg

Hi, I just uploaded your picture of Dunedin to the commons (Image:Dunedin Panorama.jpg), so we can use it in german wikipedia, too. I'm not familiar with how you handle it here with the old one, would be nice, if you could delete/mark/whatever it if necessary. Thanks --62.226.180.116 13:19, 2 Feb 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Clydedam_large.jpg

I nominated it for featured: see here. Good luck! Renata3 20:00, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

Haha, thanks! It's a good subject for a picture, although I don't think it's anything special technically or artistically! But i'm glad you liked it! :-D Tristanb 08:32, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, it did not get promoted. But, hey! It got a nice makeover :) Renata 05:12, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Some Otago stubs

Hi Tristanb - I notice you've done some editing on the Balclutha and Raes Junction articles; I've just added some basic stubs for Beaumont, New Zealand, Ettrick, New Zealand, and Millers Flat, New Zealand - if you can expand them in any way it's be good... :) Cheers from an ex-Miltonian in Dunedin, Grutness...wha? 10:23, 5 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Auckland Meetup

Just to let you know that a meetup is planned in Auckland for the 25th of June (see Wikipedia:Meetup/Auckland for more details), and that you are cordially invited. GeorgeStepanek\talk 23:12, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair-use image removed from your gallery

Hello, Tristanb. I've removed Image:Tnzs screenshot.png from your image gallery and replaced it with a link to the image, as it is a copyrighted image that is being used under a claim of fair use. Unfortunately, by Wikipedia policies, no fair-use images can be used on user pages; please see Wikipedia:Removal of fair use images. If you have any questions, please let me know. —Bkell (talk) 03:40, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Yep, that's fine that you've removed that image from my gallery page.
At first read, i thought you'd taken it from the actual article (in which it is being used fairly). If you're on a spree, you may want to more explicitly state that it is User pages that don't allow fair use, and that you're only removing from User pages. - Tristanb 04:01, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
I thought I did explicitly state that… how would you word what I wrote? I'm not exactly on a spree, but I've been handling a few free-use images each day in this manner for the past few days. —Bkell (talk) 04:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, I should have used a smiley face in my message, it does seem quite accusatory, I didn't intend to be rude. :-D
I just meant maybe explicitly saying that the image will not be removed from any article, but just from the user page. Hearing that an image you've made is about to be deleted can be upsetting, and it can be easy to jump to conclusions without reading the rest of your comment more carefully.
Didn't mean the word "spree" in a negative sense. I just thought if you were copying and pasting the comment to lots of people, you could maybe add that clarification.
But yeah, keep up good work. Tristanb 02:38, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Haha, no offense taken at all. "Spree" is a very good word to use to describe my editing at times. I believe I've used the word "rampage" myself… ;-)
Since it's possible that I might be leaving a similar message on many talk pages, I made a template I can subst. It's my first attempt at making a template that can act in a few different ways depending on how it's called, and it's pretty ugly, but hopefully it should make it easier for me to leave a nice descriptive message about what's going on. Of course, you're welcome to play with the wording if you like. —Bkell (talk) 05:49, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
