They're two different scripts; the one in the tagging section is more advanced. They used to be next to each other in the list, but someone seems to have split them up for some reason. -- ais523 16:24, 21 March 2008 ( U T C)
Thank you for improving the tag. That is the wording I would have used if I had known how to edit it. Ward20 ( talk) 04:12, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi. You recently drive-by tagged Acid Dissociation Constant as having too long a lead. Please see my commentary on the talk page, in particular the failed FACs, and reconsider the tag. The idea that the lead is too long is...contentious, at best. I'm past the point of taking sides, honestly, but do reconsider. EagleFalconn ( talk) 07:15, 20 January 2009 (UTC)
Hi, Temporaluser. While "RBC" can refer to "red blood cell," "Royal Bank of Canada" is the vastly more common usage. (For example, I don't see a single instance of "red blood cell" in the top fifty search results on Google for the initialism.) The reason we have the {{other}} dabhat is specifically for instances like this. See, for example, NBC, which has dozens of other users, some quite common. Please reconsider your reverting to the dab. user:j (aka justen) 23:49, 14 February 2009 (UTC)
(←) I think you missed my point. Red blood cell may be vastly more popular an article, but that doesn't mean it is the more common usage of the initialism RBC in every day use. I'd be happy to take a look at a screenshot of your results, however mine are depersonalized, and seven of the top ten results are for the Royal Bank of Canada (the others being for the missionary organization at number five, and an industrial business and a consulting firm as the bottom two). Google does recommend "red blood cell" as a potential search term below the results, as number seven out of eight other potential terms (all the rest referring to the bank or various of its entities).
Lastly, you mention the term "neutral." Neutrality isn't an issue when it comes to disambiguation pages. There remains a dabhat at Royal Bank of Canada and a complete disambiguation page (the plurality of which are bank-related entities). I haven't seemed to be able to persuade you with the fact that, even on your search results, I am sure the bank-related usage makes up the majority of "RBC" hits. The preferred solution on Wikipedia when one usage is more common than another is a redirect, combined with a dabhat and a dab page. That's what was set up, and I'm going to go ahead and restore the redirect. user:j (aka justen) 06:50, 15 February 2009 (UTC)
Hi there, thanks for catching my mistake. I've rewritten that section and added two new references. Tim Vickers ( talk) 16:55, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.
On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (
consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was true
. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to false
in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.
For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.
Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot ( talk) 19:52, 15 March 2011 (UTC)
This template was designed for breaking up the transcription into separate phonemes. I hope you don't mind me fixing it on your user page. For regular transcription, I added the old templates, which still handle that just fine. — kwami ( talk) 14:23, 27 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi - I really did spend some time lookinf for replacements for the dead links, unsucessfully. thanks for the tip, I'll check it out. -- Sreifa ( talk) 05:11, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
Hi. In Acetone-butanol-ethanol fermentation, you recently added a link to the disambiguation page Anaerobic ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. For more information, see the FAQ or drop a line at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for tagging this article for notability back in 2008. It's still tagged; you may want to take it to the Notability noticeboard or AfD to get it resolved. Best wishes, Boleyn ( talk) 13:24, 30 January 2013 (UTC)
Dear Temporaluser, - Thanks for your good edits to the Radical centrism page earlier today. Regarding your placement of the "excessive or improper links" banner over the "External links" section, I want to share my rationale and then ask three questins.
Ratinale: Given that Radical centrism is a rellatively new political philosophjy, I thought that a relatively large number of external links would be hepful to readers. (And they may be - pageviews have nearly doubled since Dr. Ernie and I revised this page in mid-February; see my summary of the revisions near the bottom of the article's talk page.) However, I do want to make the Radical centrism page conform to Wikipedia's guidelins and get that banner removed ASAP.
Therefore, my questions: (1) will it be enough to eliminate the "Manifestos" and "Audio and video" sub-sections? If not, (2) how many external links may I safely leave under the "Organizations" and "Opinion weblogs" sub-sections (there are currently 17 and 15, respectively). Finally, (3) once I carry out the desired edits, where do I go to try to get the banner removed?
Thanks in advance for your respopnse (I'll watch this page). - Babel41 ( talk) 06:23, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.

Hi- thanks for reaching out. I think the best referenced summation of the critiques is probably http://rawfoodsos.com/2010/08/06/final-china-study-response-html/ but see her http://rawfoodsos.com/the-china-study/, page for a list of pages dealing with the topic. Similarly - http://anthonycolpo.com/the-china-study-more-vegan-nonsense/ and http://www.cholesterol-and-health.com/China-Study.html Each of these cite the relevant literature, so I won't repeat those cites here. A distinction can be drawn between Campbell's popular book "The China Study" and the China-Oxford-Cornell Study which is research in which Campbell was a lead see The_China_Study_(book) if you really want to know more about all that. I'm pretty new to this, but happy to engage, so hope that replying on your talk page is the correct way :) Quarrel ( talk) 14:09, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
