Drug Therapy ProblemsTo: Cassandra 73 Thank you for cleaning up wikipedia of spam, but I must ask you to reverse your speedy deletion of Drug Therapy Problems. This section actually can not be reworded because it is technical information that is defined by those exact phrases. I listed one copyrighted source as an example that I didn't just pull it out of my hat, but in fact I could list 100's of sources. This is a very important topic because it correlates to many other disciplines related to pharmacy and drug therapy. One author does not hold copyright to these definitions as they are national guidelines that are then talked about in vast medical literature specifically pharmacy related. comment added by speedymarathon (speedymarathon) —Preceding undated comment added 09:20, 26 January 2010 (UTC).
Comment From Me to YouNote To Cassandra73 Thank you, Though it was Deleted, I Will Actually Re-Make The Page, But Instead, I Will "Put it in my own Words". I Aplogize For Any Inconviences That I May Have Caused To You Cassandra73. --The Demon Of The Wiki Sea, Razgriz 15:58, 18 November 2009 (UTC) no worries, this subject need sto be highlighted and put out to the world as much as possible. thanks for your time. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Dperks (talk • contribs) 08:56, 11 December 2009 (UTC) CD/DVD copy protectionThank you for reverting the SPAM in this page - I did the same yesterday! Since the spammer changes his address, I've asked (and got) page protection (three days granted). Keep up the good work - it can be hell out there! Since you seem keen to revert vandalism, you might like to consider using Twinkle - where you can easily revert a change and twinkle will make it easy for you to add the standard warnings - I think you need to be autoconfirmed first (4 days and 10 edits). Another useful tool is Vandal fighter for seeing in real time which pages have been edited.

Zakerie deletioncan you please tell me why you deleted my page.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Ikaz734 (talk • contribs) 16:06, 18 December 2009 (UTC) Rollback I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it.

The long programmatic notice that I got for trying to correct a simple error in spelling, albeit with the article title, was totally off-turning. I have enjoyed making some small contributions to Wikipedia in the past, but I was ready to hang up my editing spurs after that one. Had I been a complete newbie, I probably would have quit right then and there. When I saw the missing link in the Reformers ousted, I spent a fair amount of time researching the rural and agricultural programs arising from the New Deal. There are many things that need to be added to what I think is an important article about that activity. But I was not about to pursue that project after the abrupt digital slap on the hand for my boo boo. I almost didn't even return to see whether the problem was resolved. I was preparing a caustic "Dear Jimmy" message in my head. But I went to the watchlist out of habit and saw that you had made the needed correction. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Grapeguy (talk • contribs) 16:05, 27 December 2009 (UTC) AngryAryanNuts.

It seems to have fixed itself for now, but I gave out a full opinion here if you'd care to read.

Hiya Cassandra. (Any connection to Cassandra, prophetess of doom?) Thanks for your work identifying usernames that fail our username policy, every report I've seen has been right on the money. Do you have the Twinkle tab that says "csd" loaded up, and are you interested in tagging (most of) these userpages per WP:CSD#G11? It would be more efficient if I could make the deletion call at the same time I'm making the call on blocking, since once I've read everything I need to read to make one call, I'm in a position to be able to make the other call. Just a suggestion ... do whatever work you're comfortable doing. (watching) - Dank (push to talk) 14:02, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

Ioeth (talk contribs twinkle friendly) 19:01, 22 January 2010 (UTC) Tafor the move of my comment. Peridon (talk) 20:41, 23 January 2010 (UTC) It's a little complicatedmainly because different admins tend to look at different things. It's quite likely that a real estate agent who goes by User:IdahoRealEstate and creates a promotional page is not going to contribute productively; the question is how to handle it. My advice is to pick one of two directions and go with it ... either be one of those people who argues the close cases, or aim for recognizing the cases that everyone agrees on, and just do those, and leave the close calls alone. Everyone agrees that we should {{uw-softerblock}} User:ReMax if he works for ReMax and talks about that in his edits (unless he's misbehaving badly, in which case we need something stronger, but that's rare). But theoretically, User:IdahoRealEstate might actually listen to what we're saying, and he might start writing about real estate in Idaho in general and drop his WP:COI. Because that's so unlikely, there are admins who are just waiting for reports like that one at UAA, and they pounce and block. Other admins don't like this because it seems to be (and probably is) against policy, and they blame both the blocking admin and the patroller for making their jobs harder. So ... probably best to forget about the "promotionalism" aspect, and instead think about the copyright problem: information can't flow freely if you lose track of who has the copyright (this is giving Google some major headaches with books.google.com), and we can't know which individual has the copyright on the edits if the edits are associated with a company or website. So, just report the users where there's some evidence that it's the name of their company, organization or website, and it's not a company of just one person. For instance, we softerblock an account named after a band only if there's evidence that it's more than just one guy; if it's one guy, then we treat the band name as an alias or pseudonym, and that's okay.

User:Fischerg & User:Gerryfischer (same editor?)Hi Cassandra 73. They seem to have another account as User:Gerryfischer, as the user pages contents were almost exactly the same. The 2nd account came up at AN/I here regarding the content. ie BLP violation. I am not sure where to take this, WP:UAA (similar user names) maybe? or WP:SPI (but it's so obvious), or WP:AN/I as before?, so I came to ask you. What do you think?

A question for you, if you don't mind - I have several other articles that I want to add that are of importance to the Body Modification industry and I want to make sure that I am providing enough support for their inclusion. I have read most, if not all, of the information on creating articles and notability. The biggest issue I have come across is that it is difficult to provide evidence of notability in a case such as Dustin Robbins, where the subject is in an "alternative" industry that few "main-stream" or common media outlets report on. It seems it would leave Wikipedia incomplete to leave out notable subjects simply because they are unconventional or in a small industry, and therefor do not have many of the most commonly accepted sources. This is especially true in an industry such as Body Modification, where many notable subjects make a point to avoid main stream media outlets. Any recommendations? Thank you for your help!

— Rlevse • Talk • 00:02, 18 June 2010 (UTC) Food safety risk analysisHello there. This is my first experience creating a Wikipedia article, so I am not sure about the etiquette on these discussion boards, so please forgive me. I am the creator of the food safety risk analysis article. Food safety risk analysis is a relatively new field, and there is a great need to promote the concepts globally. I noticed that much of the article has been removed, and I would like to see if we might be able to come to some kind of agreement in terms of what is appropriate to maintain. While JIFSAN was previously featured on the article, I feel willing to forego this based on the conflict of interest claim. However, we would argue to keep Foodrisk.org links and resources. Foodrisk is a very valuable tool in the realm of food safety risk analysis, and it is possible to find many types of references from many different sources on the site. Foodrisk is meant to work as a database or collection of food safety risk analysis resources, and professionals and academics may find scholarly references to aid in their endeavors. There is a great need for professionals to be able to find training and educational materials regarding food safety risk analysis. Currently, there is a shortage of qualified researchers in the field, and many of the major world organizations such as WHO, FAO, and Codex are working to increase understanding of the domain on a global scale. For this reason, we would please request that Foodrisk information be kept on the article, as well as the original documents provided as a guide for users to rely on as an introduction to food safety risk analysis (these were the bulleted resources, mostly documents, suggested in each of the headed areas). The resources suggested on the original article were hand-selected mainly from governmental organizations and world bodies, by our Risk Analysis Program Manager, a PhD and expert in food safety risk analysis. I hope that we can come to some kind of agreement here that remains un-biased but still allows for a proper and informational introduction to food safety risk analysis.JennJifsan (talk) 13:14, 22 June 2010 (UTC)
Okay great. Perhaps a "Further Reading" section would be more appropriate. I created such a section, and included only the most crucial documents here: two general food safety risk analysis papers, one each specifically addressing risk assessment, risk management, and risk communication, and one related to the Food Standards Programme. Also added one additional external link (other than Foodrisk) to the Codex homepage. Hopefully this is a sufficient compromise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JennJifsan (talk • contribs) 14:20, 23 June 2010 (UTC) redlinkif he is not notable then neither is the affair.

Charles Platt articleCassandra, I understand your concerns with the conclusions drawn. In that case I'd like to post only what is clearly verifiable - namely that Platt wrote an article for Make in which he claimed that DDWFTTW (directly downwind faster than the wind) is not possible, and that a recent world record for DDWFTTW was established. Perhaps the fact that he has been a condescending prick, still does not accept DDWFTTW, and that he won't settle up on his bet with Emilio will have to be left out of it. After all, it's one thing to make a claim that DDWFTTW is not possible, but it's another thing entirely to publish an article in Make magazine with that conclusion, and to insult a fine engineer like Jack Goodman in the process. This is all verifiable and appears in his published article. Spork33 (talk) 18:36, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
My editing while logged out has only to do with the fact that I have extremely little experience with wikipedia. By reducing my edits to the doucumented and relevant facts, they should be completely acceptable. I have no interest in settling a dispute with Platt through wikipedia, and I don't in fact have a dispute with him. I do have an interest in updating this article so that it is a more complete, accurate, and balanced description of Platt - and I will do so. Spork33 (talk) 20:30, 6 September 2010 (UTC)
Looking back at the article I see now that my edits appear to be the only edits that require any sort of references or verification. Starting from the top, let's see what statements are without any sort of verification: - (born in London, England, 1945) - is an author, journalist and computer programmer. - He relocated from England to the United States in 1970, - is a naturalized U. S. citizen - has one daughter, Rose Fox. - is the nephew of Robert, Baron Platt, of Grindleford. - The Silicon Man has been endorsed by William Gibson - Platt was nominated for Hugo awards and received a Locus Award - Charles Platt has also used pen-names... - Platt ceased much of his activity as a fiction writer after 2001 - in 2005 he was offered a contract... - Platt is also known for writing The Gas (novel) -(Girodias also published several of Barry N. Malzberg's early novels.) - When Platt's novel was published in the United Kingdom by Savoy Books in 1980, copies were seized by the UK's Director of Public Prosecutions. I could go on. But hopefully you get my point. I don't see a bit of evidence for any one of these "facts" or for that matter most any of the rest of the article. My edits at least have valid references. Are we simply going to go back and forth on these edits, or are we going to come to some reasonable compromise? Spork33 (talk) 03:21, 7 September 2010 (UTC)
How about if you and I come to an agreement on the verifiable and relevant facts - and you make the appropriate edits? Spork33 (talk) 12:17, 8 September 2010 (UTC)
