Thanks :)

Oh, and if you get a chance, do take a look at Husond's translation on my talk page... tell me he's not telling me to tell flickr users that I'll pay them to take their clothes off, or something :p Hope you're well :) Riana (talk) 17:30, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

Muhammad

The note in the protection log makes it clear that he set it that way so it wouldn't fall to unprotected. It should be downgraded from protection to semi-protection, which is its "semi-permanent" state as he notes in the protection log. Please consider review. Thanks. Talmage 02:28, 25 June 2007 (UTC)


Please fully protect the article. Edit war is in full swing. Also, please remove the last edit as it never gained consensus, and may violate the reliable sources requirement. Ezag 17:35, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. Personally, I don't see how a consensus can ever be reached what with the very polarized stances on the talk page. Ezag 20:01, 25 June 2007 (UTC)


Hi and thank you

I'm a little slow with technology but thank you for helping. I THINK i got it, but I'm not sure I always get really confused when citing. Rena Silverman 17:16, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for catching and correcting so quickly that double redirect I created! --Ed (Edgar181) 15:48, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Good one :-). Yours sincerely, Eddie 16:12, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Oh wise vector graphics one...

I recently responded to this note left by a new user, on his talk page. His response (below) leads me to think that you may be better able to help him out, since you know a lot about SVG.

Reading through the licenses that you wrote in my profile, I have decided to go with the "GFDL" licensing. So feel free to upload my picture and add it to the secondary antibody article. If you think there's anything that should be added to the image (Since you seem to know the subject), or it should be made larger (Its made in vectorgraphics), feel free to say so. --David Munch 16:37, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

An SVG image would indeed be better than the current PNG illustration, his is also more "generalized" in nature. I don't have an appropriate program currently and, even if I did, probably wouldn't be much use here. Would it be possible for you to guide him through the process a bit? He seems eager to participate, and I would hate to turn off a potentially valuable contributor with my own ignorance. Thanks!--DO11.10 22:02, 28 June 2007 (UTC)

Thanks. I had it all under control until he mentioned that it was made in vector graphics, then I started thinking (this is usually where things fall apart) that it would be nice if it could be uploaded in SVG format. Cheers--DO11.10 16:13, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
I've uploaded the picture in .eps format and .svg format. Feel free to use what you want. I've noticed that the quality of the picture degrades significantly using the .svg format, so thats why I've also uploaded the .eps format. Do with them as you please! And on a second note, I do know how to upload pictures and link to them. The only thing I'm having problems with is putting them up in the right size on the pages, and getting them to locate in the right part of the pages. --David Munch 08:46, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Flaged entry

I was wondering why you flaged my entry of http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minnie_Mars_Jamieson_Elementary_School to be deleted??

thanks,

Questions on Biochemistry for Fvasconcellos

Hello Fvasconcellos!

Since you seem to be well educated on the biochemestry of drugs can you please tell me what the functional groups are on the ends of the Risperidone molecule? I know the functional group in the middle is piperidine. I just do not know what the functional groups on the ends of the Risperidone molecule are. Would you be so kind as to educate me on this here? Also what is the functional group at the bottom of the Olanzapine and Clozapine molecules? I know the functional group at the top of the molecules is piperazine. Also what is the functional group at the bottom of the Quetiapine molecule? I know the functional group at the top is piperazine. Also what is the functional group on the bottom of the Zotepine molecule? Thanks for your help. Dr CareBear 06:24, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Kratervideo (talk · contribs) has edited the Wolff family, and has done that twice to my userpage. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:30, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

oops ! It wasn't you—you got the earlier one. [2] SandyGeorgia (Talk) 00:32, 3 July 2007 (UTC)
I think that means you're no longer a newbie admin :-) SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:44, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

Hey, thanks for the nice note a few days ago on my talk page ... how's it going over here? SandyGeorgia (Talk) 03:07, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Antioxidant layout

I made that change as the WP:GTL says it's OK to change the sequence of the appendices, and people thought that the external links and further reading were more likely to be of use to the casual reader than the huge list of references. Tim Vickers 19:35, 3 July 2007 (UTC)

No probs! :) Tim Vickers 20:22, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


Editor review

Hi there, I was wondering if you might have any comments at Wikipedia:Editor review/TimVickers. Thanks, if you have time. Tim Vickers 21:10, 3 July 2007 (UTC)


Unjustified speedy deletion (by another party)

There are also many advocates of retention. And the only grounds for speedy deletion are previous deletions which were performed without consensus, and the latest of which is now up for review. If one accepts that this was a legitimate speedy deletion, then what's to stop any admin deleting any category regardless of the will of the community, and then speedy deleting it every time it is recreated by anyone in relation to any proper process? If you agree that the speedy was not correct, please use your powers to restore it asap because right now the current non-existence of this category is distorting a discussion in which many users have participated in good faith, by creating what should be a false impression that the powers that be have already made their decision.

Fernando Torres

He signs for Liverpool today, and will be unveiled at 3pm to the public. It looks like the protection runs through until the 6th of July. *TORRES TO GET NUMBER NINE SHIRT. Could the protection be removed prior to that as legally he is a Liverpool player at this point, that was the issue. Londo06 12:10, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

  • It wouldn't really be for me to say. What I will say is that at this point Torres is a Liverpool player and will be unveiled at 3pm (GMT) in his Liverpool press conference. Londo06 12:15, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Admin class solidarity

So regardless of whether admins or right or wrong, you will always back them out of some form of class solidarity. That's no exactly going to encourage us serfs to stick with the project. As for not giving an impression, that just won't do. Of course it does. It is very clear in this case that previous abuses, as they have explicitly been used as the sole justification for them have facilitated more recent abuses, and you are letting that go unchecked. OrchWyn 13:24, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

That's not class solidarity, it's only common courtesy. I've only been an admin for a month—not long enough to develop class solidarity :) IMHO there was a very good reason for it to be deleted: the category was simply a recreation of Cat:Wealthy fictional characters—which was deleted according to process—, so it did meet the CSD. Also, since Category:Wealthy fictional characters is at Deletion review, that's the one we should be focusing on. If Category:Wealthy fictional characters is restored, Cat:Fictional affluent characters is redundant; if it is kept deleted, Cat:Fictional affluent characters probably should be as well. I see Evilclown has restored it, so I'll refrain from further comments. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 17:37, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

Liverpool F.C. "protection"

Although I assume your motives were sound, I think you'll find you've protected quite a bad version of the article, and I quote:

In fact the majority of Liverpool supporters are middle class males who are usually of a homosexual persuasion. In fact Liverpool have the dubious honour of being the club with the largest gay following in the English Premier League. A survey conducted in 2006 by the Guinness Book of Records confirms this fact.

I'd appreciate your help in removing vandalism from the protected page. Cheers, aLii 13:27, 4 July 2007 (UTC)

I just came here to say exactly the same thing as the user above. I understand why the article is being protected at the present time, but could you please, please remove that piece of vandalism! Robotforaday 13:37, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
The issue has been resolved now (Torres' transfer has been confirmed), so the protection needs to be removed. ArtVandelay13 14:00, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Done. Jesus, I've made some mess of this. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 14:53, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Hey, don't worry too much, your intentions were good with the protect in the first place, as the premature changes were getting silly... Robotforaday 18:02, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks! One of the things I said I would clear would be CAT:TEMP, and most of my administrator work has been there so far. Acalamari 03:15, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

Joseph McManners

Thanks for protecting this article against vandalism, but I don't think it will help this time around. They'll just wait for the protection to pass at the date you so helpfully provided. Next time, please consider not including that date. - Mgm|(talk) 04:39, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

My message to Edward

Did you actually read my message to Edward? It had most of it commented so that all it said was "How Is your summer?" That's pretty funny! I think he would enjoy the joke! —Preceding unsigned comment added by ICanDoItNineTimes (talk • contribs) 19:47, 10 July 2007

Can't say I'd agree with you on that one. Fvasconcellos (t·c) 03:46, 11 July 2007 (UTC)

Timeline of tuberous sclerosis

Good suggestion, thanks. I've tried to rework the second paragraph in the lead to address Sandy's request to relate the "chapters" to sections. Could you review that paragraph to make sure it reads OK? I've also added some more nationalities from your peer-review request. I've enjoyed researching the last handful of red-link physicians; they're a bit stubby, some of them, but it is a start. I think I'll post it on FLC tomorrow, despite having one there already ;-). If the timeline is on your watchlist, I suspect you'll notice the talk-page banner anyway :-) Meanwhile, if you have any other suggestions, please don't hesitate to make them. If I can return the favour, please ask. Cheers, Colin°Talk 21:37, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Here's the nomination. Cheers, Colin°Talk 22:47, 14 July 2007 (UTC)

Re: Linotype Trademark Ownership Attributions

Hello,

I am a law clerk for the firm Stack & Filpi, Chtd. Our firm represents Linotype Corporation and we would like the opportunity to explain why we feel that it is necessary for us to ensure that our client's trademarks are properly attributed, however, as it is after buisness hours already, we will be unable to respond until Monday July 16th. Is there an email address that we could communicate through with you so as to avoid posting several pages of text on your discussion page? We look forward to further discussing this issue and appreciate your diligent monitoring activities.

Very truly yours,

Phil Bergren

Diclectin

Hi Fvasconcellos,

Any thoughts on what to do with the Diclectin article? Any thoughts on what the main ingredient is-- is it doxylamine or vitamin B6? (I'm thinking it ought to be merged into doxylamine.) Nephron  T|C 03:03, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

I redirected Diclectin... now the proprietary names just have to be cleaned-up. I'm going to create a separate section in the doxylamine article for that. As for not being around... I was out-of-town in June. This month I'm quite busy-- started a new job. Nephron  T|C 03:21, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
