I would like to ask you, if you could write a few lines in the egg article about the monotreme eggs (platypus and equidnas) If there is information on the fossil monotreme eggs, the better. I have looked them up and although there is quite a lot of information, there is no much on the eggs... I mean: what differences are they between a monotreme egg and the other eggs, what are they like, an image would be great...etc... Anyway, thanks... --Francisco Valverde 19:26, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
glofishHi Adrian - I'm also proposing we merge GloFish into Zebrafish. It's the same species after all. Wondering if you'd like to comment at: Talk:GloFish. Cheers, David.

I am assuming this was a mistake and plan to revert, but thought I would check here in case you know something I don't about the classification of these extinct species.

Hello Adrian, I'm glad you brought up the topic on the zebrafish page of injection at the two-cell stage in zebrafish -- not everyone working in zebrafish knows about the late establishment of intercell permeability barriers, so that was a good opportunity to address the topic and slip in Chuck Kimmel's references. Many organisms do have tight barriers immediately, such as Xenopus; there's a good paper establishing that in Xenopus by Nutt et al. in Genesis: http://www.wiley.com/legacy/products/subject/life/anatomy/genesis_morpholino.html Nutt SL, Bronchain OJ, Hartley KO, Amaya E. Comparison of morpholino based translational inhibition during the development of Xenopus laevis and Xenopus tropicalis. Genesis. 2001 Jul;30(3):110-3. These folks regularly use the stratagem you described of injecting one cell of the two cell embryo and analyzing half of the tadpole as a control and the other half as experimental. Keep up the good work! - Jon JonMoulton 14:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC) Re: Adelaide meetupHi Adrian. It's an open event (for adults), so you're welcome to attend.

I am actually adding stuff from my old third year notes, I just had to adapt it so it sounded a bit more encyclopeadic - also need to find references as I don't think "lecture 3 of Plant Disease control at the university of Nottingham" really counts. DMI actually stands for DeMethylation Inhibitor, I should have added that! I think until the fungicide article becomes more established it's not worth establishing a daughter article specifically on fungicide resistance. I considered it before I started and decided to just add it to fungicide. Thanks! Million_Moments (talk) 12:51, 7 January 2008 (UTC) Adelaide Wikimeetup 3
Hi Adrian - we're planning a third meetup in Adelaide sometime in the coming weeks, and would love to have you there. If you can, please help decide a location, a date and a time here. Thanks! ~ Riana ⁂ 11:51, 16 January 2008 (UTC) Re: Nicolas Cage semi-protection requestThe vandalism isn't that bad this time around - and it's getting reverted pretty quickly. I'll keep an eye on it. east.718 at 20:56, January 16, 2008 Re: are the genomes you're adding all annotated?Hi Adrian. I don't know if the new mammalian genomes are annotated. All of them are fully assembled, if that's what you mean, with the possible exception of the Platypus. I was basing inclusion on the presence of the complete genome (not just partial or mitochondrial) in the Genbank database. I've been unable so far to find many of the new ones in journal articles, but haven't looked through minor journals. In addition, the public announcement of the sequencing of the Opossum genome has to be premature - it seems that only part of that genome has been sequenced. The 1.8* coverage for the rat was in 2004, there has a lot of sequencing work done on the rat since then but I don't know how much the coverage has improved. There may well be other genomes that should be included on the page, I was only looking for mammals. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mollwollfumble (talk • contribs) 01:06, 23 January 2008 (UTC) Adelaide Wikimeetup 3
Hi Adrian J. Hunter - after some planning we've decided to hold the third Adelaide Wikimeetup on Sunday, 17th February, 2008. The meeting will be held at Billy Baxter's in Rundle Mall at 11:30AM. Further details and directions are available on the meetup page. Please RSVP here by 20:00UTC on 15th February 2008 (that's 6AM Saturday for our time zone) so that we can inform the restaurant about numbers. Hope to see you there!

On behalf of Riana ⁂, 11:22, 5 February 2008 (UTC) RevisedHi Adrian - since Sunday is inconvenient for many people due to church, we are rescheduling for Saturday. I hope this will enable you to attend! Best, ~ Riana ⁂ 11:43, 6 February 2008 (UTC) Your deletion of "Pipetting Valley"Hi Adrian I have realized that you have initiated the deletion of the entry "Pipetting Valley" with the comment that it would not be available anywhere else in Google. Actually, today it gave 102 hits in Google, 243 in Yahoo. It is a relatively new expression - that's correct, but it discribes an area in Switzerland that hosts the majority of companies in the field of liquid handling automation - which is usually well understood by people working in laboratories (which seems to be your background, too). These companies are also organized in various clusters and industrial organisations. I guess you would not delete "Silicon Valley" - though there are many companies listed (would you?). Please reconsider your deletion and aktivate the articel again. You also seem to be very much concerned about "commercial links". Well, in Biology, Chemistry and Automation, as well as in IT or computer science, "commercial" companies have a major impact on the developments, new technologies and methods. There is plenty of very nice literature on many topics on their homepages, which may be of high interest and good information to those people, who actually search for those topics. It is not legal to copy this information, but it is still useful information, so links to these pages may indeed be of interest. Best regards, Rb07 (talk) 20:51, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
March 2008Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to User:Arnon Chaffin/Anti-Vandalism Center: You may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit was inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. ArcAngel (talk) 16:22, 18 March 2008 (UTC) Wikimedia Australia incorporation meeting
