re:Makki di Roti

[edit]

Hey there, that link goes to Wikipedia:Disambiguation pages with links, which is basically a big long list of pages that have links to disambiguation pages. A disambiguation page is needed when lots of things have the same name, for example... [[Punjab]] is a disambig page, because there is Punjab in Pakistan, Punjab in India, Punjab as a British Indian province... etc. What I did on that page was change [[Punjab]] to [[Punjab region|Punjab]]. That way, the link reads "Punjab", but instead of going to the disambiguation page, actually goes to the Punjab region article.

When I write "lend a hand", it just means that there are lots of disambiguation pages where the links have piled up, and it's good to have people working on them to clear them up, and point them to the correct article. For example, if I wrote "Haryana borders UP and [[Punjab]]", it would go the page with different options on it. Instead, I would change it to "Haryana borders UP and [[Punjab (India)|Punjab]].

That's all there is to it, really! :) Does that make things clearer? If not, drop me a line again. riana_dzastatce17:58, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No worries! I was just reading your userpage, do you have a biology background? That's what I'm aiming for as well. Still a few years to go til then, though :) Do you contribute to the science articles here at all? riana_dzastatce18:03, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Cool. Well, cheers, have a good day! riana_dzastatce18:07, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting comments

[edit]

Your deletion of Carnildo's comments was absolutely inappropriate. If you do that again, you may be blocked. Please review WP:CIVIL and WP:NPA. - CHAIRBOY () 21:53, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

The issue is what makes his/her writings that pretend to be conclusive, more valuable than the entire discussion? No mala fide intent. Apologies. Bunty.Gill 21:55, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Don't apologize to me, just be civil and don't delete other people's comments. If someone does something to upset you, work it out in discussion, not w/ "quid pro quo". - CHAIRBOY () 21:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
I'm well, thanks... yikes, I see you're in a spot of trouble? Careful there! :) Anyway, if you like, you can email me; I'd prefer to reserve my talk page for WP-related discussion. Cheers, riana_dzastatceER01:48, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi,

Help Needed

[edit]

Since you were active on the Chandigarh page- slight dispute over notability of Capt Navdeep Singh, and if he 1. Warrants an article in the first place, and 2. Deserves to be in the Famous Chandigarhian's list as his fan/s seem to insist. Haphar 16:50, 5 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

RLS

[edit]

http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/v39/n8/full/ng0807-938.html This is about the article on Restless Legs Syndrome, since it says that the genetics are unknown. That is not correct any more. Bunty.Gill 22:41, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you're going to waste my time with a drive-by, first of all, give me a link that I can actually access. I cannot read it. Secondly, provide me with the diff, so I know what this refers too. And thirdly, how about a little common decency to explain what is or what is not correct, especially when all I've ever done to the article is delete some alternative medicine bullshit. If there's some genetic studies that shows (never proves anything) a relationship, well great. I'm glad. But what do I have to do with it?

Speedy deletion of Frederick Dominguez

[edit]

A tag has been placed on Frederick Dominguez requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person or group of people, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not indicate the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for biographies.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the article (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the article's talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

AfD nomination of Frederick Dominguez

[edit]

I have nominated Frederick Dominguez, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Frederick Dominguez. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time. ˉˉanetode╦╩ 20:55, 23 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Motto of the day

[edit]

Hello, I notice you're using one of the {{motd}} templates, run by Wikipedia:Motto of the day. You may have noticed that some of the mottos recently have been followed by a date from 2006, or on occasion simply "Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia". The reason for this is that Motto of the day is in some very serious need of help. Participation in the project, which has never been especially high, has dropped considerably over this past summer, to the point we have had several days where no motto was scheduled to appear at all. Over the past several weeks, I've been the only editor scheduling mottos at all, but there aren't enough comments on some of these mottos to justify their use. If we do not get some help - and soon - your daily mottos will stop. In order for us to continue updating these templates for you, we need your help.

When you get a chance between your normal editing, could you stop by our nominations page and leave a few comments on some of the mottos there, especially those that do not have any comments yet? This works very simply; you read a motto, decide whether or not you like it, and post your opinion just below the motto. That's it - no experience required, just an idea of what you personally like and what you feel reflects Wikipedia and its community. If you do have past experience with the project, then please close some of the older nominations once they've got a decent consensus going. There are directions on the nominations page on how to do this.

If you have any questions, please let me know, or post on the project's talk page. I'm looking forward to reading your comments on the suggested mottos, and any additional suggestions you'd like to make. Until then, happy editing! Hersfold (t/a/c) 03:24, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Unreferenced BLPs

[edit]

Hello Bunty.Gill! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 2 of the articles that you created are tagged as Unreferenced Biographies of Living Persons. The biographies of living persons policy requires that all personal or potentially controversial information be sourced. In addition, to ensure verifiability, all biographies should be based on reliable sources. If you were to bring these articles up to standards, it would greatly help us with the current 441 article backlog. Once the articles are adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the list:

  1. Marek Mlodzik - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL
  2. Lubert Stryer - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs· FENS · JSTOR · TWL

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)

[edit]

The Wikipedia Library gets Wikipedia editors free access to reliable sources that are behind paywalls. Because you are signed on as a medical editor, I thought you'd want to know about our most recent donation from Cochrane Collaboration.

  • Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization that conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.
  • Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account.
  • If you are still active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

Motto of the Day Help Request April 2014

[edit]

Motto of the Day (WP:MOTD) is in a state of emergency and really needs your help! There are not enough editors who are reviewing or nominating mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review, and this probably means that you will notice a red link or “This space for rent” as our mottos for the next weeks and months.

Please take a moment to review the nominations and nominate your own new mottos at Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/In review and Wikipedia:Motto of the day/Nominations/'Specials. Any help would be appreciated! MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 09:13, 29 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

This message has been sent by pjoef on behalf of Motto of the Day to all editors of the English Wikipedia who are showing MOTD's templates on their pages, and to all the participants to MOTD: (page, template, and category).

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Genomics Institute of the Novartis Research Foundation until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Boleyn (talk) 15:15, 21 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
