Dear Edgar, I did receive and respond to a message about violating Wikipedia's rules from Daniel Case. So, I am a little confused about why you blocked my user name (I would have deleted it, but didn't know how) and not sure why you are also contacting me. I had corrected a few details about our organization (like the exact organization name and the correct name of the Executive Director - Dr. William Schuster instead of Bill Schuster) and tried my best to be transparent that I represented the organization when I made those corrections (even if I was technically incorrect in using an organizational user name). I certainly regret the mistake and am very happy to work with the editors at Wikipedia to let them know about the very few errors in their article. Otherwise, we appreciate their interest in Black Rock Forest Consortium and their taking the time to write and research the Forest and Consortium.
I hope this clarifies the situation. Please let me know how to proceed and I will be happy to remedy the situation.

Hi. I am sorry to bother you, and I really hate having to stoop to this level. But since they did, so am I. They even told me to do it. So here I am (I don't know how to 'ping' someone).
I noticed that you took part in one of the numerous times that Side to Side was voted on or redirected. Well, a 3 day old voting decision isn't enough for them. They are back, and wanting a page and have a vote going on. They have Side to Side (song) running and a name change request was sent back to the talk page for a vote.
If you care to voice your opinion (again), feel free to click. Your previous decision does not count towards the current vote. This one is primarily about changing the name, but I feel that since it was currently voted to redirect, that the primary voting reason should be about whether to have a page or not. Either way, voices need to be heard (again).

Hey Edgar,
If you have nothing to do I have a bit of work for you. There are 2 articles that should be created, Ethyl Furoate and Megastigmatrienone. They are both very common additives in cigarettes, so there are many internet articles on them (they aren't just random chemicals). Also, I've created some chemical articles recently, and I have 0 chemistry education, so you could check them if you wish (they're on my user page). No pressure :) Ethanbas ( talk) 21:03, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

Hi, I noticed that you added notability tag on Thiobenzoic acid. I thought that articles about chemical compounds are inherently notable like articles about animals or geographic locations.

Hello, Edgar-
Regarding a previous deletion for the Wikipedia page for Cassandra Leah Quave, Ph.D.
About two years ago, my colleague Miranda had attempted to create a page for Dr. Quave, and it was deleted for reasons of notability at the time. Dr. Quave has since been featured in this story run by the New York Times. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/18/magazine/could-ancient-remedies-hold-the-answer-to-the-looming-antibiotics-crisis.html?smid=pl-share.
Is this sufficent to instate a page for Dr. Quave? In addition, I do have an updated CV document with updates.
Any advice/help on the matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,

Hello, Edgar181. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review
the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

Hi Sir, You are deleted my contribution here [1]. I think you made a mistake and your source of information is distorted. I think is a collective mistake was widespread on many websites, and mixed in different languages to become this: 6-Piperidin-1-ylpyrimidine-2,4-diamine 3-oxide. The truth name is this: 6-(1-Piperidinyl)-2,4-pyrimidinediamine 3-oxide; 6-(1-Piperidinyl)pyrimidine-2,4-diamine 3-oxide; 2,4-pyrimidinediamine,6-(1-piperidinyl)-, 3-oxide (mw=209.25).

Hi Edgar181.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Edgar181,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

The changes I made should stand, as they are entirely truthful, and documented by the CDC, along with proof from the CDC in the form of a link. Therefore my edits should stand and be left alone. Instead, they are being removed. This is the second time it was removed, so I am wondering what the purpose is of removing truthful and accurate information. I figured rather than putting it up again, I would attempt to find out the reasoning to delete truthful information. At this point, it just seems that some want this hidden, and no one should hide facts from those wanting to research any medical choice, such as vaccines.
I reworded this:
"Egg
protein is present in influenza and yellow fever vaccines as they are prepared using chicken eggs. Other proteins may be present."
to say this:
"Egg
protein is present in influenza and yellow fever vaccines as they are prepared using chicken eggs. Other proteins may be present, such as human fetal DNA from aborted babies,
fetal bovine serum,
human serum albumin,
porcine DNA,
bovine serum albumin, and other animal DNA
[1]"
The only thing I can think of would be changing "human fetal DNA from aborted babies" to "recombinant human albumin" or "human albumin", or " WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts", or " MRC-5 cells", or "human diploid cell cultures ( WI-38)", or any of the various ways they explain it, but ultimately, you are still talking about human aborted fetal cells. I didn't add the guinea pig DNA that is in varicella, because that isn't in as much. But between the others I listed below, you get all the main methods of DNA in vaccines.
Thank you in advance for your reply.
199.74.155.50 ( talk) 15:49, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
"other proteins" was what was originally there, I just expanded on them. How it was worded before made it seem like it was egg or other. And it is egg, human, porcine, bovine, guinea pig and other DNA. And how exactly is "WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts" in your opinion is not from an aborted human baby? That is exactly what it is... Even Wikipedia knows that, as you can see at WI-38. The CDC pdf I referenced listed the names that I expanded on. And if you do further research on each name, you can easily find that is from a specific aborted human fetus. Instead of naming all the separate babies, I listed the type of DNA it was, human, animal, etc... 47.185.111.92 ( talk) 03:18, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
I think it is also important to those who are against things like abortion to easily find information that a vaccine contains cell cultures from a baby. They have the right to accurate information, which the CDC also provides. So it ultimately seems like you are against stating this was from a human baby. In that case, then I shall word it differently. Would it be okay to place the reworded information here so that maybe we can come to an agreement on wording so that my edits are not reverted so quickly? 70.196.13.69 ( talk) 14:36, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi Edgar, Thank you for your note. There are many people listed on Wikipedia as journalists who are not, on both the left and right ends of the political spectrum. The occupation "journalist" means something very specific, and is applicable to people who adhere to certain processes and norms in their work, including fact checking, source verification, and limits on the inclusion of opinion. The person in question here is akin to an op/ed writer for a newspaper, which is a perfectly legitimate and very necessary job, just one that is different from that of a journalist. I believe Wikipedia should be more interested in accuracy than anything else. Thank you. Amywestervelt ( talk) 17:08, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Repetition of an error does not make it accurate, surely? If that's the criteria, you can get a similar list of results from reliable sources (The Hill, The Independent, etc) if you search for Milo Yiannopoulos and "commentator". Similarly you can get a host of reliable sources referring to Rachel Maddow as a journalist, but she is (rightly) listed as a commentator on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Amywestervelt ( talk • contribs) 04:37, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Dear Edgar, I did receive and respond to a message about violating Wikipedia's rules from Daniel Case. So, I am a little confused about why you blocked my user name (I would have deleted it, but didn't know how) and not sure why you are also contacting me. I had corrected a few details about our organization (like the exact organization name and the correct name of the Executive Director - Dr. William Schuster instead of Bill Schuster) and tried my best to be transparent that I represented the organization when I made those corrections (even if I was technically incorrect in using an organizational user name). I certainly regret the mistake and am very happy to work with the editors at Wikipedia to let them know about the very few errors in their article. Otherwise, we appreciate their interest in Black Rock Forest Consortium and their taking the time to write and research the Forest and Consortium.
I hope this clarifies the situation. Please let me know how to proceed and I will be happy to remedy the situation.

Hi. I am sorry to bother you, and I really hate having to stoop to this level. But since they did, so am I. They even told me to do it. So here I am (I don't know how to 'ping' someone).
I noticed that you took part in one of the numerous times that Side to Side was voted on or redirected. Well, a 3 day old voting decision isn't enough for them. They are back, and wanting a page and have a vote going on. They have Side to Side (song) running and a name change request was sent back to the talk page for a vote.
If you care to voice your opinion (again), feel free to click. Your previous decision does not count towards the current vote. This one is primarily about changing the name, but I feel that since it was currently voted to redirect, that the primary voting reason should be about whether to have a page or not. Either way, voices need to be heard (again).

Hello, Edgar-
Regarding a previous deletion for the Wikipedia page for Cassandra Leah Quave, Ph.D.
About two years ago, my colleague Miranda had attempted to create a page for Dr. Quave, and it was deleted for reasons of notability at the time. Dr. Quave has since been featured in this story run by the New York Times. http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/18/magazine/could-ancient-remedies-hold-the-answer-to-the-looming-antibiotics-crisis.html?smid=pl-share.
Is this sufficent to instate a page for Dr. Quave? In addition, I do have an updated CV document with updates.
Any advice/help on the matter is greatly appreciated.
Thanks so much,

Hello, Edgar181. This message is intended to notify administrators of important changes to the protection policy.
Extended confirmed protection (also known as "30/500 protection") is a new level of page protection that only allows edits from accounts at least 30 days old and with 500 edits. The automatically assigned "extended confirmed" user right was created for this purpose. The protection level was created following this community discussion with the primary intention of enforcing various arbitration remedies that prohibited editors under the "30 days/500 edits" threshold to edit certain topic areas.
In July and August 2016, a request for comment established consensus for community use of the new protection level. Administrators are authorized to apply extended confirmed protection to combat any form of disruption (e.g. vandalism, sock puppetry, edit warring, etc.) on any topic, subject to the following conditions:
Please review
the protection policy carefully before using this new level of protection on pages. Thank you.

Hi Edgar181.
A new user group, New Page Reviewer, has been created in a move to greatly improve the standard of new page patrolling. The user right can be granted by any admin at PERM. It is highly recommended that admins look beyond the simple numerical threshold and satisfy themselves that the candidates have the required skills of communication and an advanced knowledge of notability and deletion. Admins are automatically included in this user right.
It is anticipated that this user right will significantly reduce the work load of admins who patrol the performance of the patrollers. However,due to the complexity of the rollout, some rights may have been accorded that may later need to be withdrawn, so some help will still be needed to some extent when discovering wrongly applied deletion tags or inappropriate pages that escape the attention of less experienced reviewers, and above all, hasty and bitey tagging for maintenance. User warnings are available here but very often a friendly custom message works best.
If you have any questions about this user right, don't hesitate to join us at WT:NPR. (Sent to all admins). MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 13:46, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
Hi Edgar181,
As an AfC reviewer you're probably aware that a new user right has been created for patrolling new pages (you might even have been granted the right already, and admins have it automatically).
Since July there has been a very serious backlog at Special:NewPagesFeed of over 14,000 pages, by far the worst since 2011, and we need an all out drive to get this back down to just a few hundred that can be easily maintained in the future. Unlike AfC, these pages are already in mainspace, and the thought of what might be there is quite scary. There are also many good faith article creators who need a simple, gentle push to the Tea House or their pages converted to Draft rather than being deleted.
Although New Page Reviewing can occasionally be somewhat more challenging than AfC, the criteria for obtaining the right are roughly the same. The Page Curation tool is even easier to use than the Helper Script, so it's likely that most AfC reviewers already have more than enough knowledge for the task of New Page Review.
It is hoped that AfC reviewers will apply for this right at WP:PERM and lend a hand. You'll need to have read the page at WP:NPR and the new tutorial.

The changes I made should stand, as they are entirely truthful, and documented by the CDC, along with proof from the CDC in the form of a link. Therefore my edits should stand and be left alone. Instead, they are being removed. This is the second time it was removed, so I am wondering what the purpose is of removing truthful and accurate information. I figured rather than putting it up again, I would attempt to find out the reasoning to delete truthful information. At this point, it just seems that some want this hidden, and no one should hide facts from those wanting to research any medical choice, such as vaccines.
I reworded this:
"Egg
protein is present in influenza and yellow fever vaccines as they are prepared using chicken eggs. Other proteins may be present."
to say this:
"Egg
protein is present in influenza and yellow fever vaccines as they are prepared using chicken eggs. Other proteins may be present, such as human fetal DNA from aborted babies,
fetal bovine serum,
human serum albumin,
porcine DNA,
bovine serum albumin, and other animal DNA
[1]"
The only thing I can think of would be changing "human fetal DNA from aborted babies" to "recombinant human albumin" or "human albumin", or " WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts", or " MRC-5 cells", or "human diploid cell cultures ( WI-38)", or any of the various ways they explain it, but ultimately, you are still talking about human aborted fetal cells. I didn't add the guinea pig DNA that is in varicella, because that isn't in as much. But between the others I listed below, you get all the main methods of DNA in vaccines.
Thank you in advance for your reply.
199.74.155.50 ( talk) 15:49, 5 December 2016 (UTC)
"other proteins" was what was originally there, I just expanded on them. How it was worded before made it seem like it was egg or other. And it is egg, human, porcine, bovine, guinea pig and other DNA. And how exactly is "WI-38 human diploid lung fibroblasts" in your opinion is not from an aborted human baby? That is exactly what it is... Even Wikipedia knows that, as you can see at WI-38. The CDC pdf I referenced listed the names that I expanded on. And if you do further research on each name, you can easily find that is from a specific aborted human fetus. Instead of naming all the separate babies, I listed the type of DNA it was, human, animal, etc... 47.185.111.92 ( talk) 03:18, 6 December 2016 (UTC)
I think it is also important to those who are against things like abortion to easily find information that a vaccine contains cell cultures from a baby. They have the right to accurate information, which the CDC also provides. So it ultimately seems like you are against stating this was from a human baby. In that case, then I shall word it differently. Would it be okay to place the reworded information here so that maybe we can come to an agreement on wording so that my edits are not reverted so quickly? 70.196.13.69 ( talk) 14:36, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Hi Edgar, Thank you for your note. There are many people listed on Wikipedia as journalists who are not, on both the left and right ends of the political spectrum. The occupation "journalist" means something very specific, and is applicable to people who adhere to certain processes and norms in their work, including fact checking, source verification, and limits on the inclusion of opinion. The person in question here is akin to an op/ed writer for a newspaper, which is a perfectly legitimate and very necessary job, just one that is different from that of a journalist. I believe Wikipedia should be more interested in accuracy than anything else. Thank you. Amywestervelt ( talk) 17:08, 16 December 2016 (UTC)

Repetition of an error does not make it accurate, surely? If that's the criteria, you can get a similar list of results from reliable sources (The Hill, The Independent, etc) if you search for Milo Yiannopoulos and "commentator".

I wanted to share with you the following scientific information: https://ravimid.files.wordpress.com/2015/02/psychiatric-drug-withdrawal-can-be-disabling-010314-1.pdf — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikipediancag ( talk • contribs) 07:30, 19 December 2016 (UTC)
Dear Edgar, in March you deleted my user page User:FPPA. I have seen the "why" bit but I still don't understand what the problem is, so that I can put it right and have my user page back. Please could you explain more clearly? Regards, Roy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by FPPA ( talk • contribs) 19:02, 23 December 2016 (UTC)
Hi Edgar: you are more of an organicker than me, so if you have a more appropriate name for this thing, please move it or leave a note here, and I will do the moving. Triphenylphosphine phenylimide. Cheers and Merry Christmas, -- Smokefoot ( talk) 21:31, 25 December 2016 (UTC)
