Template:Alternate new student welcome

that's a very kind gesture on your part, I believe you help wikiproject Medicine alot, keep up the good work, thanks again--Ozzie10aaaa (talk) 11:47, 8 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for posting a link to that article BF! I had no idea how we had missed it, but it's directly relevant to my interests, as well as a bunch of those of my friends. Here is a systematic review that back up the resuts even more strongly. Best, Kevin Gorman (talk) 23:15, 9 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

That is WAY too funny. Here we go, let's see if I can make a real-live, notable article out of this...you want to make a bet??? LOL!

• I'd actually love to. I thnk have a decent idea of how to frame it, make it, abide by medrs, and be funny and informative. @Keilana: - even though it is a definitely a slightly less funny name than Death during consensual sex I'm pretty sure this could be a wortwhile sideproject , especially since it seesms to have found actual realworld use. Sorry if parts of this don't a whole lot of sense currently - My current medical situation has me on 60mg of oxycodone, when I have no tolerance. It's effecting my ability to type way more than my ability to think, frustratingly. If this lasts more than 48 hours,I' goingto get a copy of Dragon or someething. Kevin Gorman (talk) 22:01, 10 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Finally, some wikpedians with a sense of humor. I am very proud of creating a number of articles such as: Two-letter English words, Empathy in Chickens, Animal attacks, and Surgical knot. Jump right in and edit the article on its draft page. Best Regards,

Once I'm slightly less medicated, I'll defintitely back :) I find it pretty neat that we live in a era where wwe collaboratively and create a truly encyclopedic (at least in my opinion) about a topic quite likethsi Kevin Gorman (talk)

You are not going to believe this quote I found in a MEDR-S source:

:::"...patients given a continuous infusion of Coca-Cola by nasogastric tube over 12 hours showed complete resolution of bezoars. If you cannot find a can of Coke, perhaps Pepsi will do the trick, assuming it does not cause dysPEPSIa."^[1]

Thanks for the line! I am planning to get back into editing. I start my PhD in virology in a couple weeks and will be back on this site much more frequently!

I will work on citations, I am still figuring out how everything works around here but will do my best to cite every statement. I have access to a good number of papers but can always use an extra pair of eyes. See you around!

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Coca-Cola treatment of phytobezoars, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Civil War (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

The article Pelvic inflammatory disease you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Pelvic inflammatory disease for things which need to be addressed.

The article Pelvic inflammatory disease you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Pelvic inflammatory disease for comments about the article. Well done! If the article has not already been on the main page as an "In the news" or "Did you know" item, you can nominate it to appear in Did you know.

Thank you again for your response. I did read your user page and, for want of a better term, I was 'moved' by what you wrote. I don't believe it applies to all articles since anything notable by secondary sources can have an article and neither you or me can change that. But you may find that articles in Project Medicine may require more of what you know and articles that your talents could be of great value. Important, highly viewed medical articles are pitifully filled with outdated references. Also I think I better understand what you mean by correlation does not equal causation, but what I am truly wondering is that if there are many studies that continue, over decades, correlate with the idea that bacteria can cause cancer are we not approaching causation? If, for example, Koch's postulates can not be applied to those infectious agents that take decades to develop, such as Hepatitis A, due partly to transmission by two routes, sexually and vertically but yet the infection does not develop into cancer if the population is vaccinated, is this not causation. I truly look forward to your reply. Best Regards,

btw the empathy in chicken article was created by me exactly for the reasons that you state-that verifiability (if that is a word} does not an encyclopedia article make. Check out Pain in invertebrates. Empathy in chickes was intended to 'spoof' that article. I think there is also an article Pain in fish. I am not a big fan of animal rights and found these two articles to be essays. My favorite line was that 'bees are pessimistic". My husband and I laugh about that all the time.

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Empathy in chickens is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Empathy in chickens until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. —Largo Plazo (talk) 11:58, 17 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Bfpage

I am not allowed to edit medical articles, but would point out that your recent edit to List of human diseases associated with infectious pathogens does not really make sense. You wrote: "This article is a list of of [sic] diseases that are associated with a disease".

The article is in fact a list of pathogens associated with a diseases. Drgao (talk) 22:18, 20 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are absolutely correct. I will change my embarrassing edits asap.

Thank you for the kind words and the barnstar! I would be very interested in helping with the "Welcoming Committee" here on Wikipedia, because it is important to let new editors know that they are valued ad important. I feel that I do a lot for Wikipedia, yet generally the only time people come to my talk page is to complain about the one thing I did wrong. It feels like many editors forget what its like to be new here, and treat me with such condescension. Your message was the first time in recent memory that I have actually been recognized for what I've done right, rather than what I'e done wrong. Please give me some more information on this "Welcoming Committee," because I would like to treat new editors better than I was treated. Thank you! Rswallis10 (talk) 14:11, 24 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi BFP -

I recently saw a ping you had sent to me some time ago, but only when it got sent to your archives. I'm going to be out of town until Tuesday, PST. I'm sorry for not getting to your queries sooner, I both just have erratic health issues and managed to get my whole system pretty trojaned out right around the time of your original message. I would ask that you start a section on my talk page on Tuesday so that we can have a discussion about remaining issues you have around this set of issues, and so that we can work out a firmer/more collaboratve set of guidelines. I'm sorry I didn't get to your query sooner, but this has not been the easiest month.

Once I'm back on-wiki and you have started a section on my userpage, I think we can pretty much consider it a temporary exemption to the protocols we set up - but be aware that all general WP rules still apply, and if another user takes too much of an issue they could escalate it again further or take the issue beyond me and back to ANI, etc Since some time has elapsed and you will be primarily be talking directly to me unless someone else wants to contribute (and if they do so productively on my talk page, I'll let them - if they troll, I'll remove them at my discretion,) you may have to take other peoples' lack of objections to my actions as at least a belief on their part that with, whatever 'final' standards we work out, you'll be a productive editor who didn't do what they previously felt violated WP's policies. (I just say that because it's a pretty 'stale' issue by WP standards by now, and we usually ignore even pretty bad behavior if it's stale - so honestly if I fully reviewed all diffs and saw that someone had done something I would have blocked them at the time, I wouldn't block them for it now, though depending on it's severity I might expect at least an acknowledgement of it on their part (though I reserve the right to let issues go if I feel that bringing them back up would generate more heat than light - i.e., if bringing them up again just would not be worth it.)

I would suggest not starting the section on my talk until Tuesday, since I won't be around to respond, and not discussing any remaining details in depth until then besides a general 'tuesday sounds good' or 'lets do thursday instead' - I suggest so just because people could escalate what they felt was inappropriate behavior on your part to ANI if they felt it was egregious enough, and in some unfortunate situation I might return on Tuesday to find a block placed on you that I'd have trouble justifying modifying (though I doubt that will happen/certainly hope it won't.) Generally speaking, few admins would feel comfortable altering unblock agreements of the sort worked out between an admin and a person they had unblocked, unless the unblocking admin had totally disappeared.

That said, I'm glad to see you've been and and about, at least a little. I apologize for not getting to this sooner - it totally deserved sooner attention on my part, I just had a particularly challenging month. That said, I look forward to having a productive discussion with you on Tuesday, and hope things go well :) I will note here as I have before, that I feel that some of the conditions you set were harsher than were necessary, and would be totally fine with altering some of them/making some of them looser than they are currently.

Best, Kevin Gorman (talk) 05:58, 25 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's good to here from. I hate to tell you that the 'guidelines' have sort of moved to the back of my mind; I have been editing other types of things and have begun to translate some content into Haitian kreyol. Some WMF contractor found out that I can read and write Ayisian kreyol and put me to work for a while.

It will be good to go over the type of stuff that you refer to so that, I mean this sincerely, I don't want to stumble into a similar situation in the future. As a matter of fact, I got curious about another editor and figured out there is a lot of overlap in our editing. So I am trying to be 'smart' about the situation and back off to try and minimize the counts that would appear on the 'never-wrong' editor interaction analyzer tool'. Have some nice days off. I SAW YOU ON TOUTUBE! How funny is that? Best Regards,

Hi Barbera,

I saw your name on a view history listing of edits and thought I'd call by. I was hoping to see that you were still involved but didn't expect to be put to shame :)

I'm really pleased to see how things are apparently going and hope that, with many things hopefully being chalked productively to experience, things are going smoothly.

I have not seen any similar case get raised as the one that we were involved in but I haven't been looking too hard. It remains a concern to me that little emphasis is given to resolution of differences but it didn't seem that other editors shared this view but no worries.

The edit count facility wasn't working when I tried but I would be interested to know where your interests have taken you and what are you doing?

regards GregKaye 10:14, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you so much for checking up on me. I really need to put your talk page on my watchlist so we can stay in touch. I am still very interested in working on the process that I was involved in. If it weren't for you, I probably would have stopped editing altogether. I believe that, in the meantime, I would like to eventually become an administrator and focus on working on the whole process from that angle. It will take me a year to 'prove' myself and prepare answers to the more typical questions that will be raised in the process. So I won't apply for admin status until then. So put me on your 'to-do' list and send me helpful suggestions.

Things are going smoothly, I believe. Ironically, very recently I was being 'followed' around and having a large number of edits reverted by an editor-so I stopped putting myself in this editor's 'sphere of influence' and editing articles that I knew would be critically examined and reverted. So I am walking away from this situation at this time. If you would like to see what I am talking about, see the talk page of the article ketogenic diet and the talk page history of project medicine. Look for my name. Any advice from you would be greatly appreciated. I feel that I am being treated inappropriately and that my editing is being hampered due to these situations. I am not asking or canvassing you to make any responses at all to these already outdated discussions.

I have found it difficult to find other editors who will collaborate in editing articles with me. I was working on bringing the article Pelvic inflammatory disease up to GA status, asked for assistance on the proj med talk page and received no response from the other 350 proj med editors. Stay in touch and let me know of any situations that appear to be similar to what I experienced/am experiencing. I seriously wonder how many editors have been lost due to the process that is not encouraging and does not adhere to WP:HERE. Best Regards,

Hi there,

Just a heads up that you have new email concerning Visiting Scholars at the University of Pittsburgh. --Ryan (Wiki Ed) (talk) 17:34, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Assume you mean, articles should not be deleted because their *sources* do not meet MEDRS. Agree with this, as long as reliable sources can be found to replace them (i.e the subject is notable for an article). This particular article did contain a few more reliable sources, but as I explained in the rationale, no reliable sources can be found which use the term. Therefore the topic is not notable for an article, and is a neologism which does not belong here. Matthew Ferguson (talk) 19:16, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I believe that we are in agreement. I can't argue that the term was/is not a neologism, though I don't remember that being brought up. That would have been a reason for not including the article in the encyclopedia-but there was much discussion about not meeting MEDRS as a reason for its exclusion. I find this troubling. Feel free to continue this discussion on my talk page. I believe it is worth exploring. Best Regards,

Hi Bfpage, I am writing a new article in my sandbox. It has over 100 references. I see from example how to insert the reference and the wiki automatic numbering system. Question 1: How do I reference the same publication in several places in my article? Question 2: When I enter multiple references at the same point it reads [34][35][36]? Can I make it read [34-36]?

If you just change enough to show me the pattern I can probably go from there. The article I am writing is an update and reformat of a 2000 U.S. Gov. publication in "Review of Scientific Instruments" of which I am the only author. I understand that as a Gov. publication there is no copyright problem. The unformatted text at the end is the original text pasted from the RSI article - waiting for my attention. The duplicated figures are just space holders until I can get the correct ones uploaded. Another question: Are all the keyword links to other Wikipedia articles added automatically at some point? I have found working for Wikipedia educational and enjoyable. I have made some significant edits to "Inverted Pendulum" and "Capstan Equation" Thank your for your help with this.

Hi Bfpage, OK, I responded on my user talk page. I am still a little confused about user talk works. EE483597 (talk) 00:44, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

You are getting better all the time. If you look at the coding here, you will see that I created a new heading with the name or title of the message with '== ==' on each side. Also when you left your previous message here you weren't signed in with your user name so all I could see was your IP address. I didn't really know that it was you leaving the message but I guessed it was you. New editors are given a lot of 'grace' and time to learn all the things they need to know.

I appreciate the effort you made for our project, but unfortunately I had to undo your edits because I believe the article was better before you made that change. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions. Thank you! Bfpage |leave a message 09:43, 28 August 2015 (UTC)"

1. 1 Could you please give more information on what you meant , for future reference . Was it edited as it was not brief or something else ?

1. 2 Also why did you remove the topics/headlines/pointers i added (i understand the explanations were a bit long) , eg the point about "There is one god who is found by grace of god "

This is actually an important text and the granth/book starts with this (in Gurmukhi dialect of course) , and it has so much significance that the original author The 5th Guru had added that to the beginning of all the prayers .

you can verify also it at website www.srigranth.org which is a digital version .

I just got this message regarding my sandbox: Not suitable for Wikipedia. This appears to be taken from a collection of essays, which may or may not be copyrighted (I've been unable to verify this). The tone is not suitable for an article in any case, appears a case of using us as a web host. Mdann52 (talk) 09:45, 28 August 2015 (UTC) What is going on here? EE483597 (talk) 22:53, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Per your advice I have added information about my connection and motivation for this article on my user page. EE483597 (talk) 21:25, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

First, on behalf of WikiProject X, thank you for trying out the WikiProject X pilot projects. I would like to get some anonymous feedback from you on your experience using the new WikiProject layout and tools. This way, we will know what we did right, and if we did something horribly wrong, we can try to fix it. This feedback won't be associated with your username, so please be completely honest. We are determined to improve the experience of Wikipedians, and your feedback helps us with that. (You are also welcome to leave non-anonymous feedback at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject X.)

Please complete the survey here. The survey has two parts: the first part asks for your username, while the second part contains the survey questions. These two parts are stored separately, so your username will not be associated with your feedback. There are only nine questions and it should not take very long to complete. Once you complete the survey I will leave a handwritten note on your talk page as a token of my appreciation.

Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you, Harej (talk) 17:49, 2 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Just sending a reminder to complete the survey linked above. (This is the only reminder I'll send, I promise.) Let me know on my talk page if you have any questions. Thank you!!! Harej (talk) 22:33, 15 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Barnstar of Diligence

You've made significant efforts to improve the encyclopedia, even a situation came up where a long-ish block could've been justified and I asked you to follow some guidelines to make sure the situation didn't recur. You basically doubled the guidelines, and then got to work improving ENWP content in a meaningful way without blinking at the fact that you had been briefly justifiably blocked with the possibility of a longer block. If every person I ever blocked had a similar reaction, ENWP would have a lot more high quality content. Thank you for being willing to set aside any pettiness, and focus on improving the encyclopedia. Kevin Gorman (talk) 19:48, 2 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the barnstar. As for not 'blinking', I can't possibly characterize or minimize my block in this way. As for contributing to the encyclopedia in a 'meaningful way'...well, hmmm...that's what I thought I was doing all along. Yes, there was the possibility of being blocked even longer but I am not sure that is a tactful thing to put into a barnstar...why bring up a past threat, twice? There is no pettiness to set aside and I have always focused on improving the encyclopedia. You probably don't need to mention the justifiability of the block, twice, either. You're a good guy and I wish you the best. Best Regards,

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Hi,

I think you have an interest in Animal attacks. Wiki-years ago, in the last couple of days actually, I saw an article in wp:AfD (biogaphy/Canadian) which was about a woman attacked by a shark ( forget the type) in Mexico. I was going to tell you about it, but got distracted. and now I cannot find it, sigh... Ottawahitech (talk) 20:53, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks so much. I usually update the page by doing a news search for recent incidences. I did a historical search once and then that's where I found out that house cats have killed infants. If you like searching for such things, just post a url here on my talk page and I will follow up on it. The Very Best of Regards.

I found the AfDed article, Nicole Moore. It was created by a new editor and A7ed the minute it appeared on wikipedia, and after some wrangling the CSD was finally declined by an admin. It looks like this new editor (who is now being disparaged at AfD) put some work into it -- a real shame how we treat editor wannabes here, sigh..

We need to ask for some stats on how many people never add content again after they've been treated like that. What a shame, what a terrible shame. I keep trying to find new editors to encourage and I just can't seem to find them...they appear and then vanish. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that anyone can edit...and then watch the edit disappear in five seconds. Best Regards,

Hi. You recently accepted an edit by an IP user to the article Happy Birthday to You. I wanted to let you know that generally, changes to the name (of the birthday person) within the article are not considered constructive, because the original published version of the song contains the name "John" rather than any other name. Of course, people who sing this song change the name (while singing it) to the name of the birthday person, and this is reflected in the article, but the lyrics should report the official version. Thank you for your contributions and thank you for patrolling edits to articles such as these -- your help is invaluable. Etamni | ✉ | ✓  17:15, 18 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Barbara! I wanted to ask you some questions about Wikipedia. I saw you "reviewed" my article (Human milk oligosaccharide). How is "reviewing" differentiated from "patrolling"?

Also, when I looked up your primary account I was interested to find out that you're participating in a "visiting scholar" program. How do people get selected for that? I assume, of course, that you actually have to be a scholar! But what are the other criteria? That seems like a pretty neat program. Snazzywiki (talk) 16:19, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
