[edit] Alzheimer's

Thanks for being a nice sane voice over on the Alzheimer's page. I think we have made good progress on things with better referencing. Maybe we want to take a look at the lead and clean that up. --Chrispounds 02:35, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

I would be glad to do it.Igoruha 21:12, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
The first couple of paragraphs need to be easy to read. I took a pass at simplifying it last weekend, but we might want to take another pass. I need to dig around for the reference you were looking for. I am not that excited about data regarding 2050 since the state of the world might be very different. --Chrispounds 23:18, 31 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page move debate opinions needed

Hi, user DIV (a chemical engineer), i.e. User talk:128.250.204.118, and myself (a chemical engineer) have been debating over the name of the Gibbs free energy article for seven months now. DIV is demanding that both the Gibbs free energy and Helmholtz free energy articles be moved to “Gibbs energy” and “Helmholtz energy” per IUPAC definitions, and is continuously rewriting all the related articles in Wikipedia on this view. According to my opinion, as well as others, e.g. 2002 encyclopedia Britannica, 2006 encyclopedia Encarta, 2004 Oxford Dictionary of Chemistry, 2005 Barnes & Noble’s The Essential Dictionary of Science, the 2004 McGraw-Hill Concise Encyclopedia of Chemistry, Eric Weissteins World of Physics: Gibbs Free Energy, etc., Gibbs free energy and Helmholtz free energy are the most common usages. If you have an opinion on this issue could you please comment here. Thanks: --Sadi Carnot 19:56, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Notability of The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists

A tag has been placed on The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article appears to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that you can assert the notability of the subject, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm the subject's notability under Wikipedia guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Corvus cornix 03:31, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re:Speedy Deletion

I received a message on my talk page that 3 articles that I recently created are candidates for speedy deletion. One page was about Olney Medal which is a very prestigious medal in textile industry and quite frankly I was surprised that there was no such article. The other article was about Louis Olney who cerated Olney Medal. Google finds 191 sites containing info about Olney Medal, 116 sites contain info on Louis Olney, and 21,600 sites with related information on The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists (which is another article that was called for speedy deletion. Would you please consider again your decision about deleting these three articles ? Thank you. Igoruha 21:10, 16 June, 2007 (UTC).

Hi, Igoruha, how are you?
I've had another look at the pages you mentioned. The American Association of Textile Chemists and Colorists actually already has a page on Wikipedia, found here.
Looking at the other pages, I don't think that they are notable enough to have their own article on Wikipedia, however I think the above page would do well to have a section for both the medal and Louis Olney. If you'd like, I can email you the deleted material. Cheers- CattleGirl talk 03:50, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ahhll-be-bahhk

A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Ahhll-be-bahhk, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.
