I've nominated Intimacy recently and would appreciate your input like last time to get the process rolling. Thanks. RB88 ( T) 15:22, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm baaack. Thanks for the comments. I was wondering if you would be able to take a stance since you are now happy with everything in the article. RB88 ( T) 05:51, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
OK the compound with the 2-beta, 3-alpha (ie 1R,2S,3R) is called RTI-274.
Please can you change the name for this page?

Hi FV,
I have to perhaps embarass myself with some ignorance and unsureness. This ref, [1] says about elimination constant. The half life looks extremely short so I think that it is not the same as elimination half life. Can you clarify that ref for me? I have added your talk page to my watch list.-- Literaturegeek | T@1k? 22:54, 18 September 2009 (UTC)
I've got Attachment theory at FAC just now. Someone's said the prose is a bit "puffy" and I was hoping maybe you could have a look at it as prose is not my best point. Thanks. Fainites barley scribs 20:15, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
Hi, we crossed paths once in regards to the usage of language; it was actually you who gave me a name for the concept of "disabling language". I'm currently in a conversation with an admin who is advocating for the usage of this phrasing: "(person) suffers from Asperger syndrome". I'd appreciate your input: please see Talk:Dustbin Baby (film)#Phrasing of content addressing Asperger syndrome. Thanks. Whatever404 ( talk) 20:16, 19 September 2009 (UTC)
for fixing temazepam. I am tired. Greetings from 70.137.137.64 ( talk) 15:56, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
I had already looked into one section of that article and I expect a 2nd opinion would be helpful. Eubulides ( talk) 16:31, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
In regards to this request, please email me using Special:EmailUser/ThaddeusB if you still need to resource & I will be happy to reply with either a PDF or HTML copy of the document. -- ThaddeusB ( talk) 01:25, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
Awadewit was looking at the prose for me but is now hors de combat unfortunately, so a look at the prose would be good, thanks. Fainites barley scribs 11:33, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
Fvasconcellos, I have some diagrams of the three ketone bodies at the bottom of ketogenic diet. I wonder if you could work some SVG magic to polish them a little and to be consistent, and also if you could provide the alt text for them (I wouldn't know where to start). BTW: do you know why, when I do "Download as PDF", those three images are huge? Thanks, Colin° Talk 22:26, 11 October 2009 (UTC)
Uniform requirements: I see some stray "" round titles, but the italics? Do you mean for the journal name? Just about all the citations I see in medical journals italicise the journal. I do find this makes it easier to read. I see the online book you mentioned says "Use caution when employing typography, such as bold type and italics, to indicate parts of a journal article citation. Too many variations in type styles may actually make the reference harder to read." But it doesn't go as far as to ban them. Do you think the Uniform Requirements perhaps don't actually specify typography, being formulated in the days of ASCII as a document format? Colin° Talk 20:48, 18 October 2009 (UTC)
(unindent) The Liquigen edit is a big improvement and the colours are fine. Thanks! The Ketocal edit has overcorrected. The worktop really is a light brown marble-effect (not my choice) rather than black-grey. The tiles should be white leaning slightly towards creamy rather than bluey white. Both the hand and the jug seem a bit too colourful -- the jug is not quite as deep a colour as apple juice. I guess the original is washed out from the flash and it isn't easy to restore what has been lost or compensate for the effects of the flash. Do you want to have another go? I'm a wee bit worried that the Liquigen photo might fail the copyright test. See Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Obesity/archive2. I think the design goes a bit above utilitarian, so might be copyrightable. I'll ask. Colin° Talk 08:37, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
Fvasconcellos, I'm not sure about the [] round the PMIDs. Eubulides has also questioned them. I think that the fact that the PMIDs are blue and have a hyperlink symbol is enough of a visual distraction without [] markup, and presumably colour and link symbols aren't governed by the Vancouver style. I see you moved the PMIDs after the DOIs. Don't mind either way on that. I'm not sure what punctuation should surround the DOI and PMID bits. Do you think we need a trailing period after the PMID number? Thoughts? I'm happy to make any changes so I'm not asking you to revert and I'm grateful for your help here (which I asked for!)

Hi there, could you swap the arrows around in the product release section of this mechanism, (matching File:Random order ternary mechanism.svg.png). Thank you! Tim Vickers ( talk) 16:15, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
Oh dear. Does that mean it's too difficult a read for Wiki? Fainites barley scribs 22:25, 23 October 2009 (UTC)
Could you please make a vector version of the following image ( File:Frederictonarms.jpg), and upload it under a proper fairuse rationale? I think it would benefit it's quality. Thank you. Connormah ( talk) 00:11, 25 October 2009 (UTC)

I thought it was Riana replying to me with a different account. I didn't realize she was an administrator and probably wouldn't be doing this. I apologize for tagging your page. I wasn't aware of WP:DTTR. I actually that it was required in case you wanted to take further action against them later. -- Stillwaterising ( talk) 10:57, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Hi, Fv. Could you please take a look at File:Molybdopterin.svg? I believe the molybdenum should be an oxidized form based on Chemical Abstracts and literature such as this. I created File:Molybdenum cofactor.png (before realizing there was an existing image), which I think is accurate, that you can compare with. Although yours is a phosphate and mine is the parent acid. Feel free to replace my .png as you see fit with your .svg when it's corrected. -- Ed ( Edgar181) 18:10, 11 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry about repeating the vandalism on the page. I was going for a small amount of shock just to give whomever looked into it a good idea of the retarded vandalism the page was suffering. I forgot I could make a diff. My bad. But, thank you for protecting it. J DIGGITY SPEAKS 00:18, 20 November 2009 (UTC)
Any good-faith effort to improve the encyclopedia, even if misguided or ill-considered, is not vandalism. Even harmful edits that are not explicitly made in bad faith are not vandalism. For example, adding a controversial personal opinion to an article once is not vandalism; reinserting it despite multiple warnings is (however, edits/reverts over a content dispute are never vandalism, see WP:EW). Not all vandalism is obvious, nor are all massive or controversial changes vandalism. Careful thought may be needed to decide whether changes made are beneficial, detrimental but well-intended, or outright vandalism. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.106.205.76 ( talk • contribs) 23:37, 21 November 2009
Thanks for setting the length of time of semiprotection for Eli Whitney, Jr. to 6 months. This is very helpful to the page's watchlisting vandalism defenders (such as me). It is much more useful than a 2- or 3-week period, which I have seen used elsewhere in the past. Since watchlisting vandalism defenders are a resource that has real value for the viability of the Wikipedia project, it is good when someone performs a service that helps those volunteers and prevents their watchlist-combing time from running too long for no good reason. So thanks! — ¾-10 17:10, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Per User talk:Geometry guy#GA class medicine articles, I've started User:SandyGeorgia/GA class medicine articles. The goal is not a complete GA reassessment, rather to give Geometry guy a list of the worst offenders per WP:MEDRS (and I'm also noting the GA date and other issues as I go).
