We seem to be reverting each other's work, so maybe it would make sense to talk and discuss what we can agree on and agree to disagree. Benzophenone is not a component of sunscreens so I removed FEBS Lett ref from there, its irrelevant - at least in my view. More significant is the Padimate O article. I am trying to do several things with my edits, two of which sould be fairly okay with you: upgrade English, use wiki-format (links, capitalizing subheaders). The place where we seem to differ is the degree to which you want to help the reader extrapolate from the photocarcinogenicity of Micher's ketone to the conclusion that Padimate O is causing melanoma. I feel that you are speculating and over-reaching (but surely you dont see it that way!). So let's talk for a while (we can discuss it on this site, if that's okay) and see if we can iron out some consensus. These reversion cycles really set editors on edge, beyond reason.

thanks for the note. The thing that some of us are leery about is turning these articles into advice columns, since advice is specifically discouraged in this encyclopedia and anything verging on original research. Benzophenone is a very common building block and is, formally, a structural component of many hundreds of species, some good and some bad. While I can see your point on the wording of the padimate-O, I question the value of adding every mention of any skeletal connection between all benzophenone species and the parent molecule. The article on benzophenone would be unwieldy and the core information (what is it and what are is main properties) would be diluted out. Why not connect sunscreens to benzene too, since sunscreens are benzene derivatives? So you can see what I mean, hopefully. More later, off to work. -- Smokefoot ( talk)

You are correct. I have been overagressive in editing and have been assuming bad faith in edits such as this one. TheRedPenOfDoom ( talk) 13:41, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
I archived the section in Sunscreen:talk that you deleted at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Sunscreen/Archive_1, with the other archives. You really should put in a summary when you delete like that, and always put into an archive instead of just delete wholesale. Deleted nonsense, etc. isnt an issue, but it appears that most of that conversation was legit. PHARMBOY ( TALK) 09:20, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
I wanted to know if you (or any friends of yours) are interested in dermatology, and would be willing to help me with the WikiProject Medicine/Dermatology task force? Kilbad ( talk) 03:00, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current
Arbitration Committee election. The
Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia
arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose
site bans,
topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The
arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to
review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on
the voting page. For the Election committee,
