Revert on Ostrich

Sorry, my bad, obvious good faith edit. I reverted because the agreed standard for Wikiproject:birds is that only the divisions as listed are used, no sub- or super- bits, otherwise the taxobox becomes bloated and messy. Jimfbleak (talk) 06:14, 14 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Head louse edits

That worked out fine. Thank you. Ursasapien (talk) 09:31, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Barr

See Diff if you have any questions let me know. Jeepday (talk) 18:23, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No problem. I was just trying to get that page a little more attention. Noca2plus (talk) 20:20, 11 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mechanix

I'm apparently not qualified to source anything, nor, apparently, do I have a high enough status to warrant responses in a discussion or to be treated as an equal. Unless that response is to censor what I say. Anything I put up,apparently, will more than likely be in violation of one or more wiki-rules, and/or guidelines. My sincerest apologies, Noca2plus, but you will have to find someone who is a competent editor and who is currently not being threatened with blocksJackorKnave (talk) 22:01, 16 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Don't be so hard on yourself, JackorKnave. People got pissed at what you did, and so they threw the book at you. So what? It happens. On Wikipedia it seems to happen a lot. And that's why we have the policy of Please do not bite the newcomers. I would say you got bitten, and for that I'm sorry.
One of the very first content contributions I made was to the Occam's Razor (House) article -- diff, which I worked hard on, and carefully sourced with external links. I thought it was an important insight, and enhanced the educational value of the article. Saranghae honey (talk · contribs) reverted my edit within 6 minutes, and without comment -- diff. Thinking Saranghae honey had just overlooked the importance of my contribution, or objected to my presentation, I added my edits back in as a footnote -- diff. This time the edits seemed to stick, but a week later, Saranghae honey axed my text again --diff -- citing obscure rules such as WP:SYN and WP:OR. LOL! I know how you feel!
What could I do? Well, like you, I considered leaving. If Wikipedia didn't want my keen insights, fuck 'em! Perhaps I'm more sensitive than you -- it didn't take block threats to get me to consider leaving! :) But ultimately, I decided to stay. Although I wouldn't characterize Saranghae honey's actions as "welcoming", I did knuckle down and try to understand what WP:SYN and WP:OR meant. And in the end, I understood Saranghae honey's point.
I say two things to you at this point: 1) I hope you can get beyond your present conflict with Thrindel (talk · contribs), and continue to participate in Wikipedia. Because Thrindel's domain seems to be restricted to Ctrl+Alt+Del, it should be easy to avoid him. 2) I am more than happy to help you improve The Mechanix or any other article that strikes your fancy. Just ask.

Re: Robert Barr now redirect, not dab

I have removed the {{DisambigProject}} tag and re-assessed the Bio-project tag as redirect-class. {{DisambigProject}} instead goes on the talk page of the disambiguation page, along with a new Bio-project tag. Cheers. Trance addict - Tiesto - Above and Beyond 03:16, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the Bio-project banner tag probably (didn't look at the tempalte code yet) has a line similar to this example for the WikiProject Skyscrapers banner:
|redirect|Redirect=[[Category:Redirect-Class Skyscraper articles|{{PAGENAME}}]]
This line enables you to assess pages as redirect class. As a side comment, Tiesto rocks! Cheers. Trance addict - Tiesto - Above and Beyond 01:23, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Barnstar

The Working Man's Barnstar
For the many valuable contributions you've made to the Bob Barr article, which have vastly improved it, I award you this barnstar. JayJasper (talk) 15:45, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Redirecting "Barr" to "Bob Barr"

You made the page "Barr" a redirect to "Bob Barr" earlier today. Does Bob Barr really outweigh all other usages of "Barr" to that great an extent? I don't see it. I dare say that the average person, seeing just the word "Barr", might think of Roseanne Barr first, if anything. I think it makes more sense as a disambiguation page. Korny O'Near (talk) 02:36, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for taking the time to contact me before taking action. Long term, I agree with you. In the short-term, however, I feel the attention Bob Barr is getting in the U.S. Presidential race warrants a default redirect from "barr". That is, during these six months, Bob Barr may be the primary usage of "barr" (see WP:PRIMARYUSAGE). My feeling was that this redirect would be reevaluated after the November 2008 election. Of course, that is just my opinion, and given my libertarian views, I may be quite biased. I would suggest we move this conversation to Talk:Barr or Talk:Barr (disambiguation), but because neither of those pages exist as of yet, it might be difficult to solicit additional opinions. Shall we submit to a 3rd-party resolution (WP:Third opinion)? -Noca2plus (talk) 03:16, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
As an aside, Rosanne Barr isn't even listed at Barr (disambiguation) (formerly located at 'Barr') but rather, she is located on the secondary diambiguation page Barr (surname). I find that, in itself, to be bothersome (i.e., that one has to tunnel down two levels to find her, when Brendan Fowler aka BARR is found at the top Barr (disambiguation)). However, I'm at a loss to suggest how Rosanne might be moved/copied to Barr (disambiguation) without cluttering Barr (disambiguation) with the 53 other notable Barr biographies (which is presumably why a secondary dab was created in the first place). -Noca2plus (talk) 03:33, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, good thinking. I added a section in Talk:Barr about it. Korny O'Near (talk) 03:45, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Black land / Black land

I don't see how it makes a difference at this point. There's nothing that phenomenal in the histories that would merit a merger. Black Land would be a different article in there were a formal title that used this. - CobaltBlueTony™ talk 20:33, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

demodex

hi i want to ask you why there seems to be no literature about insect intellegence, i mean it seems it would be easy to design some pavlovian and operant experiments. I have discussion about this arthropod behind the article. I used to be a libertarian too but I live in Asia now. Perhaps we could chat.

Theravadaz (talk) 04:55, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps the apparent lack of literature is a semantic issue. There's quite a bit of literature on insect behavior. Even Pavlovian responses could be defined as "behavior" rather than "intelligence". You might be interested in an animal behavior text such as Alcock.[1] It has a number of insect examples. Noca2plus (talk) 17:56, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Peace

That editor is clearly acting in appropriately. He's got three warnings (including the one I just added and one on an IP talk page), so he's getting close to the end of his rope. You appear to be acting correctly. You were right to remind him of AfD. You've avoided reverting more than 3 times in a day. I think the best thing is to continue as you've been, and if he continues then alert me or another admin.

School head lice policy

Hi. I noticed your new page here. Some of your refs are broken - I would work on it myself, but I take it you're still working on this page...? - Richard Cavell (talk) 22:46, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for noticing. Yeah, I'm working on it. I just split it from head louse infestation, so I've got some issues to still sort out. Noca2plus (talk) 22:53, 12 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DYK: School head lice policy

I'd like to confirm the DYK nom of this article, but I think "child-schooldays" is a word that might lead to problems. I think it means something similar to man hours in the industry, but I can't be sure. Could you provide alternative wording, an explanation or perhaps another hook? - Mgm|(talk) 11:22, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sure. How about: "...that child absences due to enforcement of School head lice policies in the U.S. are estimated at 12 to 24 million annually?" Yes, I meant it to mean something like man hours. The purpose was the clarify that we're not necessarily talking about 12 to 24 million children missing school. It appears that Politizer is nixing the DYK nom because it's not 5x. Do you think it's worthwhile for me to post the new hook? Noca2plus (talk) 22:27, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Bah, I didn't notice it was a split off. Sorry. Nah, unless you can turn it into a 150,000 word article by tomorrow, posting the hook probably isn't worth it. Perhaps you can work to GA status instead? - Mgm|(talk) 22:42, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]


School head lice policy review

Hi Noca2plus. I've had a look at the School head lice policy article. There's some good work there, and it's a worthwhile topic. However it does not meet the GA criteria at the moment. It may be resubmitted when issues have been addressed. Have a look at Talk:School head lice policy/GA1 for a fuller explanation and suggestions. If you need any further advice, or if you have any questions about the review please don't hesitate to get in touch with me on my talkpage.

Sorry for not responding. I'm not very active anymore. I don't recall my interaction with Tenmei, and a brief search didn't turn up anything. Perhaps you didn't intend this message for me, because you edited the Cardiology invitation template, and maybe that was from someone else's talk page?

Vos

I have restored the redirect. Quinlan Vos has garnered no significant coverage in third-party sources, and the content you restored failed to meet the burden of providing citations to reliable sources and to meet the guidelines for writing about elements of fiction. This character is better treated at Wookieepedia, which is linked from the List of characters page. I'm poking through his Databank entry looking for appropriate material to cite to expand his brief entry at that List. --EEMIV (talk) 21:25, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The plot detail you're interested in presenting/expanding might be better spent on the comic book series itself -- that's essentially all the character's article entailed, and that fails WP:PLOT. However, it could be appropriate content for improving coverage of the overall comic series, which I'm sure has been subject to commentary and critique, and could be up to snuff. All the Star Wars comics-related articles I've seen are very much in need of improvement. --EEMIV (talk) 21:35, 2 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hi

I'm contacting you because, as a participant at Wikiproject Medicine, you may be interested in a new multinational non-profit organization we're forming at m:Wikimedia Medicine. Even if you don't want to be actively involved, any ideas you may have about our structure and aims would be very welcome on the project's talk page.

Our purpose is to help improve the range and quality of free online medical content, and we'll be working with like-minded organizations, such as the World Health Organization, professional and scholarly societies, medical schools, governments and NGOs - including Translators Without Borders.

Hope to see you there! --Anthonyhcole (talk) 07:24, 9 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)

The Wikipedia Library gets Wikipedia editors free access to reliable sources that are behind paywalls. Because you are signed on as a medical editor, I thought you'd want to know about our most recent donation from Cochrane Collaboration.

  • Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization that conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.
  • Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account.
  • If you are still active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

School treatment:

It is unfortunate that everywhere, even Wikipedia, there is absolutely no mention of what a school's participation might actually entail outside of exclusion of a child(ren) once head lice is found. Perhaps just another opinion, it is felt that even in institutionalized settings, where a child(ren) spends an actual 1/3 percent of their weekly lives, that this should be a topic of relative concern. Would it not be considered an irresponsible act for the schools, since, in fact, all articles recommend the treatment/regime to be followed at home by the child(ren)'s responsible party, as well as the total clean up of the home? Why is there no back up plan for the child(ren)'s safe position within the very environment from which they contracted head lice in the first place - school? As well, it seems the inconsistency in a school's responsibilities should be a point of reference for which needs to be revisited with great concern. If, when asked, a school's principal/administrator/etc only recites policy, which, again states nothing about the institution's 'responsibility' other than that of sending a child(ren) home, proves, in every aspect, and under the circumstances that this problem is/has been currently an epidemic through our school, that this issue needs to be firmly dealt with at, perhaps, the Legislative level. Following that, there must be confirmation upon content available to which informs the public of the safety measure met by and within the institutions to where children are required to go for other circumstances. Any thoughts? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.129.86.129 (talk) 16:40, 16 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Medical Translation Newsletter


Wikiproject Medicine; Translation Taskforce

Medical Translation Newsletter
Issue 1, June/July 2014
by CFCF, Doc James

sign up for monthly delivery


This is the first of a series of newsletters for Wikiproject Medicine's Translation Task Force. Our goal is to make all the medical knowledge on Wikipedia available to the world, in the language of your choice.

note: you will not receive future editions of this newsletter unless you *sign up*; you received this version because you identify as a member of WikiProject Medicine

Spotlight - Simplified article translation

Wikiproject Medicine started translating simplified articles in February 2014. We now have 45 simplified articles ready for translation, of which the first on African trypanosomiasis or sleeping sickness has been translated into 46 out of ~100 languages. This list does not include the 33 additional articles that are available in both full and simple versions.

Our goal is to eventually translate 1,000 simplified articles. This includes:

We are looking for subject area leads to both create articles and recruit further editors. We need people with basic medical knowledge who are willing to help out. This includes to write, translate and especially integrate medical articles.

What's happening?

IEG grant
CFCF - "IEG beneficiary" and editor of this newsletter.

I've (CFCF) taken on the role of community organizer for this project, and will be working with this until December. The goals and timeline can be found here, and are focused on getting the project on a firm footing and to enable me to work near full-time over the summer, and part-time during the rest of the year. This means I will be available for questions and ideas, and you can best reach me by mail or on my talk page.

Wikimania 2014

For those going to London in a month's time (or those already nearby) there will be at least one event for all medical editors, on Thursday August 7th. See the event page, which also summarizes medicine-related presentations in the main conference. Please pass the word on to your local medical editors.

Integration progress

There has previously been some resistance against translation into certain languages with strong Wikipedia presence, such as Dutch, Polish, and Swedish.
What was found is that thre is hardly any negative opinion about the the project itself; and any such critique has focused on the ways that articles have being integrated. For an article to be usefully translated into a target-Wiki it needs to be properly Wiki-linked, carry proper citations and use the formatting of the chosen target language as well as being properly proof-read. Certain large Wikis such as the Polish and Dutch Wikis have strong traditions of medical content, with their own editorial system, own templates and different ideas about what constitutes a good medical article. For example, there are not MEDRS (Polish,German,Romanian,Persian) guidelines present on other Wikis, and some Wikis have a stronger background of country-specific content.

  • Swedish
    Translation into Swedish has been difficult in part because of the amount of free, high quality sources out there already: patient info, for professionals. The same can be said for English, but has really given us all the more reason to try and create an unbiased and free encyclopedia of medical content. We want Wikipedia to act as an alternative to commercial sources, and preferably a really good one at that.
    Through extensive collaborative work and by respecting links and Sweden specific content the last unintegrated Swedish translation went live in May.
  • Dutch
    Dutch translation carries with it special difficulties, in part due to the premises in which the Dutch Wikipedia is built upon. There is great respect for what previous editors have created, and deleting or replacing old content can be frowned upon. In spite of this there are success stories: Anafylaxie.
  • Polish
    Translation and integration into Polish also comes with its own unique set of challenges. The Polish Wikipedia has long been independent and works very hard to create high quality contentfor Polish audience. Previous translation trouble has lead to use of unique templates with unique formatting, not least among citations. Add to this that the Polish Wikipedia does not allow template redirects and a large body of work is required for each article.
    (This is somewhat alleviated by a commissioned Template bot - to be released). - List of articles for integration
  • Arabic
    The Arabic Wikipedia community has been informed of the efforts to integrate content through both the general talk-page as well as through one of the major Arabic Wikipedia facebook-groups: مجتمع ويكيبيديا العربي, something that has been heralded with great enthusiasm.
Integration guides

Integration is the next step after any translation. Despite this it is by no means trivial, and it comes with its own hardships and challenges. Previously each new integrator has needed to dive into the fray with little help from previous integrations. Therefore we are creating guides for specific Wikis that make integration simple and straightforward, with guides for specific languages, and for integrating on small Wikis.

Instructions on how to integrate an article may be found here [4]
