Hi DO11.10. I have some time and I wanted to start plugging away at Infectious Disease again. Please check in when you have time. I valued our interactions 2 hears ago.

I am writing for help regarding 2 accounts that I have inadvertently set up and need to delete one of these accounts so that it does not appear that I am engaging in sock-puppetry.

I think that my first edit on the Wineville Chicken-Coop murders was a few months ago, and as I understand it, I initially registered under the account Beaconboy (caps??).

My computer had a virus and I suspect that when I re-registered again, I registered as Beaconmike, not Beaconboy.

I have only been editing on the Wineville Chicken Coop Murders, but unfortunately, I have edited under both registered names.

Currently I would like to eliminate the Beaconboy registered name and maintain the Beaconmike registered name.

I am requesting your suggestions as to how I can do that, or perhaps you can do it for me as an editor.

It is just an honest mistake on my part and there was never any attempt at sock-puppetry, and I swear this to you.

So what should I do to clean up my mistake. I do not wish to eliminate any edits I made under the registered name Beaconboy, but perhaps this is impossible to accomplish.

Looking forward to your suggestions and guidance.

Hello! I was about to tag the article Nineteen;twentynine for inclusion in WikiProject Theatre when I noticed the page has been deleted once already (discussion here) but must have been recreated pretty soon afterwards. The edit page for the talk page said I should contact you before continuing. I'd appreciate you comments if you have a moment. Many thanks - danyoung - 18:21, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

I've been searching for some immune system art to include as a visual aid in a book about MS. I see that you have included several of "Jeanne Kelly's" diagrams from the national cancer institute along with the caveat that you have released any changes into the public domain. BUT if you go the the nat'l cancer institute they plainly say Jeanne Kelly's stuff can't be "repurposed". This is confusing... because the page citing the appropriate government stuff looks very official. Are you Jeanne releasing stuff to public domain? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.121.71.38 (talk) 00:08, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

:Hmm, that is new. I do see the notice at the bottom of [http://www3.niaid.nih.gov/topics/immuneSystem/default.htm this page], which was not there when I uploaded my altered version of the images. This notice does not exist anywhere on the pdf version of the pamphlet (I have never seen a hard copy) and seems to be opposed to the instruction on [http://www3.niaid.nih.gov/PubsOrderForm/default.asp this page] stating that "All of these materials are in the public domain and may be reproduced without permission." As far as I am aware "repurposing" is fully allowed on PD works. I suppose I should probably contact NIAID to sort the matter out. I will relay my findings. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.--DO11.10 (talk) 23:58, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

Miss Mouse, I am not certain who to report this to. User:Danaide is almost exclusively posting incoherent English to talk pages of articles. (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Contributions&limit=500&target=Danaide) On inspection of User talk:Danaide other people have warned this user. Who should I report this to and is this a problem that needs to be addressed. Thanks. --Dan Dassow (talk) 00:36, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

:I informed the user (again) that his talk page posts were inappropriate. I'll watch his contributions for more of the same, and will block if required. Cheers --DO11.10 (talk) 00:01, 6 March 2010 (UTC)

My job here was really quite simple, but I appreciate the recognition! Thank you WhatamIdoing for all of your hard work here! --DO11.10 (talk) 17:19, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

:Moved shiny to user page.

Thanks for doing that move, it's appreciated. Could I be a nuisance and ask you to move the talk page as well, please? Talk:Guinea Worm Disease over Talk:Guinea worm disease - thanks again --RexxS (talk) 18:25, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

:Hehe, never mind. The article has been moved to Dracunculiasis in the meantime. It's hard to hit a moving target :) --RexxS (talk) 21:08, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Miss Mouse, I recommend yet another extended block of User talk:167.206.175.18. There has been repeated vandalism from that IP. Someone from that IP, blanked a large portion of Poliomyelitis which I just reverted. --Dan Dassow (talk) 13:02, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

:Yep, done. Thanks for bringing it to my attention :) --DO11.10 (talk) 14:56, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Miss Mouse, JuneGloom07 Talk? , Courcelles (talk) and I nominated the article List of awards and nominations received by Up in the Air for FLC. This list is a child article to Up in the Air (film). I would appreciate your considered comments regarding the nomination on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of accolades received by Up in the Air/archive1. --Dan Dassow (talk) 13:49, 11 August 2010 (UTC)

Miss Mouse, I just reverted vandalism to Poliomyelitis‎ by User talk:99.254.103.147. All four edits from this user are juvenile attempts at humor. At your discretion, you may wish to monitor or block this user. --Dan Dassow (talk) 21:09, 21 September 2010 (UTC)

Please reconsider your snap judgment about a sentence which appeared frivolous. As you can see, the citation support includes an embedded hyperlink. Please give this a quick read-through. This may help you to construe the jello metaphor in context.

Perhaps it may assist to quickly scan The Final Inch, an article about an Academy Award-nominated documentary?

: The Final Inch focuses on the ongoing efforts to eradicate polio in India, Pakistan, and Afghanistan. The corollary goal of eradicating of worldwide polio has attracted attention, but "getting rid of the last 1 percent has been like trying to squeeze Jell-O to death." The philanthropic division of Google backed the film's production to promote public awareness about polio and to raise awareness about the efforts of public health workers and volunteers fighting the disease in counties around the world.

IMO, this disputed sentence is legitimate, on-target and justified -- especially in relation to the parts of the New York Times news story which explain a point of view expressed by some epidemiologists that the investment in eradicating polio is not worth pursuing. However, if you still feel that the metaphor has the wrong tone, I will want to correct my misjudgement in other articles besides the one you edited. --Tenmei (talk) 06:13, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

:I am sorry if my removal offended you. Actually I did read the article in the citation prior to removing that sentence. The Times article had some good information, and a POV that many people have probably not have considered, but I really do feel that the "jello" metaphor is taken out of context and here just over-simplifies the situation and sounds silly (especially as the last sentence of the introduction). Your added information here does indeed help with the context issue for me personally, but others will obviously lack this information. I left the citation there because the article was interesting and presented some unique opinions from experts in the field, but the jello quote doesn't really do it justice. Would it be possible for you to add some of the information about the cost and obstacles of eradication from the NYTimes article to that section of our article?--DO11.10 (talk) 16:40, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi DO11.10,

I was just curious why you've removed me as a notable East High alumn? I feel like I'm at least as notable as Reese Roper.

:Hi Dave,

:Your name was removed because there is/was no corresponding Wikipedia article (or citation) from which notability or membership in the group could be established. Our guideline for inclusion in "lists of notable X" can be found here.

Please note that there is a new freely accessible medical resource, [http://www.medmerits.com MedMerits] (to which I'm a medical advisor) on neurologic disorders. A discussion on ELs to MedMerits and medical ELs in general is currently in progress ([http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Medicine#Wikipedia_and_its_relationship_to_the_outside_world "Wikipedia and its relationship to the outside world"]).

Dear DO11.10,

My name is Jonathan Obar user:Jaobar, I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Wikipedia administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the communityHERE, where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.

So a few things about the interviews:

• Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
• Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
• All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
• All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
• The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.

Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your nameHERE instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.

Sincerely,

Jonathan Obar --Jaobar (talk) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Chlopeck (talk • contribs) 23:12, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi DO11.10,

I am simply an editor who thinks some of the immunology articles on Wikipedia are far from complete and the quality can be easily improved. I'd love to do it all by myself, but it'd be even better to do it in a team, to be more efficient as well as to get a wider viewpoints (from the medical, molecular and cellular viewpoints for example). If you are interested, please go to here and just start editing. The purpose of the page (it's a new page) is simply to get everyone together and collaborate, as to ensure there's editors for different topics. I look forward to working with you soon, any help would be greatly appreciated. Kinkreet^{~♥moshi moshi♥~} 00:40, 6 May 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) 07:35, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

{{WP:TWL/Header}}

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 :)
