Hi,
I was interested in contributing to the conversation on conflict of interest and open science more generally. i have some reservations about the open science model, not ideologically but practically, and i would like to have that conversation in a public forum. the problem is, i can't seem to find the page you were using during the panel discussion. if you could direct me there i would appreciate it.
thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by UseTheCommandLine ( talk • contribs) 14:47, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
Why do you say it is unlikely that PloS medicine will publish under CC BY SA? I know Open Medicine is fine with this and this is where the first article is being published. Doc James ( talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your talk page please reply on mine) 05:01, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi Dan,
There's a discussion going on at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Medicine#Antioxidants_and_cancer that might interest you. Specifically, there's a source that people are discussing, Food, Nutrition, Physical Activity, and the Prevention of Cancer: a Global Perspective. According to University College London, it's "open access". Have you got any idea what the licensing is for this document and whether it's reusable on Wikipedia (etc.)?
Thanks. — Tom Morris ( talk) 20:22, 19 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Daniel. I was looking over the plots of page view data on http://toolserver.org/~emw/wikistats/ after your question about licensing and noticed a bug. The plots were showing 0 page views on the first of the month for all months before May 2012. This seems to have been caused by a new-ish bug in the third-party JSON API used to retrieve the data, e.g. http://stats-classic.grok.se/json/en/201203/DNA.
I've patched the bug on the toolserver tool, so that inaccuracy and visual flaw are now gone. If you want to regather any graphs, the tool should be stable by tomorrow morning (I'll be doing some maintenance/feature deployments today). If you happen to see this message and need to regather graphs today, then I can work around your schedule and defer work until you're done -- just leave a note on my talk page. Apologies for the inconvenience. Emw ( talk) 15:41, 22 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Daniel,
I noticed that a tabbed page on the Outreach wiki (using this header: outreach:Template:Bookshelf/Tab_header/Education/Educators) highlights the current tab with a lighter background. (To see it in action, see here: outreach:Education/Case_Studies) I don't understand the CSS involved, but I think this is a better interface -- it makes it easier for the reader to determine "where am I right now?" In the spirit of your interest in making improvements to the interface, I thought it would be nice to incorporate this into the slide shows you do. - Pete ( talk) 22:30, 24 July 2012 (UTC)
I am writing to you as you have signed up to the Education Meetup at Wikimania 2012 and perhaps are interested in how Wikipedia links to education.

This event will be looking at Wikipedia and related charitable projects in terms of educational practice, including good faith collaboration, open review, and global participation. It's a chance to talk about innovative work in your institution or online community, and shape the future of Wikimedia UK's work in this area!
The conference will be of interest to educators, scholarly societies members, contributors to Wikipedia and other open education projects, and students.

As we put together teams for translation into major languages we are going to need to know which articles should be translated from English and which articles are already good in the target language and thus do not need translation. As a Wikipedian can you update the table for your language with these tags: To translate and No translation. Many thanks.

Hi. When you recently edited Bolitotherus cornutus, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Life cycle ( 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. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi Daniel, we're beginning to ramp up the next phase of Communicate OER. I've moved the page that was previously within WikiProject Education here: WP:Communicate OER. I'd like to begin building it out into a collection of pages in the next few days, and would like to use the header bar format you've built. I copied the contents from my Tufts School of Medicine presentation here: WP:Communicate OER/Header bar, and was about to begin adapting it; but first, I thought I would check with you and see if you have any new suggestions for how to approach this. I am sorry to say, building this kind of thing is very hard for me -- I don't think my brain is well suited to this sort of task, though I do have all the requisite tech skills and can probably get it sorted out in the long run. But I would appreciate any suggestions you might have, before I dive in! Thanks again for your work putting this together. - Pete ( talk) 03:11, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Daniel, I made an article Galba schirazensis with quite extensive use of open content texts. You have a special ability get such articles to the Main page. If you like the article, then feel free to nominate it. I made also other similar lymnaeid articles in the last week, but this one is probably the most interesting. Maybe this is interesting: ...that although Galba schirazensis looks like a Galba truncatula, a vector of fascioliasis, it does not transfer the disease? I will be improving the article during the weekend. Thank you. -- Snek01 ( talk) 14:36, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Daniel,
I just saw your comment on hu.wiki, I hope you had a good time in Budapest. Unfortunately, you chose a very unwatched page with you request, and apparently nobody noticed it in time to organize something.
If you ever come to Budapest again, feel free to drop me a line.

Thank you for signing up on the Communicate OER team page! There's a great group forming -- so far, we have more than 25 people, with a broad range of backgrounds and interests; we have professors, librarians, instructional designers, and more. Members also span a variety of countries and language proficiencies. As we set out to improve articles about openness in education, it looks like we will have a great team to work with. If you haven't looked through the list, I encouraged you to read through it: WP:Communicate OER Team.
Whether or not you're at the Open Education conference this week, we encourage you to engage with us -- we're expecting a flurry of activity as we launch! If you're here, come visit us in room C010 any time; or come to one of our daily 45 minute intro sessions in the Remixathon track in room C215.
Another great way to stay engaged is through the project's "talk page" (aka "discussion page"): WT:COMMOER. Please always feel free to add ideas, questions, etc. at the bottom of that page -- even if you just want to say hi, and go into a little more detail about what you're hoping to work on -- we'd love to hear from you. (I just posted a note at the bottom, exploring the open education article, and seeking input into how we can go about improving it -- take a look!)
If you're just looking to get started, we have a page for that -- WP:Communicate OER Do -- intended to collect ideas of projects we can work on. There's currently a "getting started" recipe for how to post a review of a Wikipedia article; check back for further ideas in the coming days. (And if you're game, feel free to add your own!)
Looking forward to working together, - Pete ( talk) 18:25, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

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) 07:20, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hello Daniel Mietchen, Viewing the contents page of the newsletter this month in GLAM I notice there is no German section yet. I noticed you are one of the authors of earlier versions and maybe you can write this time as well about the GLAM related things happening in Germany in the past month. Also Wiki Loves Monuments can be described. I hope Germany can be written about too. Thanks! Greetings - Romaine ( talk) 22:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

This is a test. I do not want to write much before seeing the consequences of this. Edgar Delgado-Eckert ( talk) 10:27, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Daniel, we're beginning to ramp up the next phase of Communicate OER. I've moved the page that was previously within WikiProject Education here: WP:Communicate OER. I'd like to begin building it out into a collection of pages in the next few days, and would like to use the header bar format you've built. I copied the contents from my Tufts School of Medicine presentation here: WP:Communicate OER/Header bar, and was about to begin adapting it; but first, I thought I would check with you and see if you have any new suggestions for how to approach this. I am sorry to say, building this kind of thing is very hard for me -- I don't think my brain is well suited to this sort of task, though I do have all the requisite tech skills and can probably get it sorted out in the long run. But I would appreciate any suggestions you might have, before I dive in! Thanks again for your work putting this together. - Pete ( talk) 03:11, 14 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Daniel, I made an article Galba schirazensis with quite extensive use of open content texts. You have a special ability get such articles to the Main page. If you like the article, then feel free to nominate it. I made also other similar lymnaeid articles in the last week, but this one is probably the most interesting. Maybe this is interesting: ...that although Galba schirazensis looks like a Galba truncatula, a vector of fascioliasis, it does not transfer the disease? I will be improving the article during the weekend. Thank you. -- Snek01 ( talk) 14:36, 21 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Daniel,
I just saw your comment on hu.wiki, I hope you had a good time in Budapest. Unfortunately, you chose a very unwatched page with you request, and apparently nobody noticed it in time to organize something.
If you ever come to Budapest again, feel free to drop me a line.
Best regards, -- Dami ( talk) 15:13, 23 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Daniel, how are you?

Thank you for signing up on the Communicate OER team page! There's a great group forming -- so far, we have more than 25 people, with a broad range of backgrounds and interests; we have professors, librarians, instructional designers, and more. Members also span a variety of countries and language proficiencies. As we set out to improve articles about openness in education, it looks like we will have a great team to work with. If you haven't looked through the list, I encouraged you to read through it: WP:Communicate OER Team.
Whether or not you're at the Open Education conference this week, we encourage you to engage with us -- we're expecting a flurry of activity as we launch! If you're here, come visit us in room C010 any time; or come to one of our daily 45 minute intro sessions in the Remixathon track in room C215.
Another great way to stay engaged is through the project's "talk page" (aka "discussion page"): WT:COMMOER. Please always feel free to add ideas, questions, etc. at the bottom of that page -- even if you just want to say hi, and go into a little more detail about what you're hoping to work on -- we'd love to hear from you. (I just posted a note at the bottom, exploring the open education article, and seeking input into how we can go about improving it -- take a look!)
If you're just looking to get started, we have a page for that -- WP:Communicate OER Do -- intended to collect ideas of projects we can work on. There's currently a "getting started" recipe for how to post a review of a Wikipedia article; check back for further ideas in the coming days. (And if you're game, feel free to add your own!)
Looking forward to working together, - Pete ( talk) 18:25, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

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) 07:20, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited James Stevenson-Hamilton, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Zululand ( 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. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hello Daniel Mietchen, Viewing the contents page of the newsletter this month in GLAM I notice there is no German section yet. I noticed you are one of the authors of earlier versions and maybe you can write this time as well about the GLAM related things happening in Germany in the past month. Also Wiki Loves Monuments can be described. I hope Germany can be written about too. Thanks! Greetings - Romaine ( talk) 22:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
