''Edgar181 deleted "File talk:Israel Kamakawiwoʻole.jpg" (G8: Page dependent on a deleted or nonexistent page)''

According to the article on [[Israel_Kamakawiwoʻole]], the infobox now lacks an image. Why was it deleted based on your rationale? [[User:Viriditas|Viriditas]] ([[User talk:Viriditas|talk]]) 12:19, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
:It doesn't matter. I'm fixing the problem now. [[User:Viriditas|Viriditas]] ([[User talk:Viriditas|talk]]) 12:21, 1 March 2010 (UTC)
:edit conflict: According to the [http://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Special:Upload&wpDestFile=Israel_Kamakawiwo%CA%BBole.jpg deletion log], the image was deleted by [[User:Melesse]] a few days ago. I only deleted the "orphaned" talk page.

I see you are also an admin on Commons. About a week ago I identified [https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/Screenshots_of_Vertigo seven unfree images erroneously tagged as free] and I've uploaded free replacements. How do I go about getting them deleted and replaced? [[User:Viriditas|Viriditas]] ([[User talk:Viriditas|talk]]) 12:32, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

:There is a bot at Commons that will replace images throughout Wikimedia projects: [http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:CommonsDelinker/commands CommonsDelinker]. I haven't used it before, so I'm not certain exactly how it works. You can make a request at the talk page to have the images replaced. Once all the images are replaced with the new ones that you have uploaded, you can let me know and I'll delete the old ones. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 14:07, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

== gantacurium chloride ==

Ed -
thanks for edits and improvements to the gantacurium page - I believe you must have also added the structure. I need to learn how you did that! But - the reason I write is that in both the onium-heads of the structures, it is missing the 6,7 dimethoxy moeities - will you please correct it?<br /> Secondly, I could not figure out how to reference to the same reference later on in the page - i left a note there for someone to help me with that - but i guess you missed seeing it.
Thanks-
--[[User:Ssp37097|Ssp37097]] ([[User talk:Ssp37097|talk]]) 06:12, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

:I formatted the references in the article. If you want to learn how to use one reference multiple times, details are at [[Help:Footnotes]]. For images, instructions are at [[Wikipedia:Picture tutorial]] and [[Wikipedia:Uploading images]]. Wikipedia's formatting can be confusing at first (and the documentation is scattered), but you've done very well for a new editor. Thanks for creating the article, and thanks for catching the error in my chemical structure drawing. I have fixed that now, too. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 14:07, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

== Thanks for taking off the Jeffspirit thing ==

Hey thanks for getting rid of that Jeffspirit thing. It got out of the sandbox and onto publication. Go figure. I know I have been having problems with glitches with my computer here and the servers it talks to. Most of the time they don't let you do anything. Sometimes though, they work backwards and put things when and where you don't want them. No system is perfect, I hope Wikipedia here never gets what I got on my computer here and it would have destroyed it.

Awhile back something got onto my computer and was a combo thing all I can figure. I was a worm, trojan, virus, invader. Was eating icons off my screen in real time. I managed to CD-rom what I needed quick enough and didn't lose anything important. The darn thing played games with you at first. Meaning you would click to bring up a folder or file, and it took you somewhere else. It was sophisticated.

I managed to get an id. TrashReg dot exe. I looked this up online and it is not the known recorded and filed form of malware for that. That's just an identification it was given. Whoever authored this was an engineer. I could tell. This was no school boy doing, or even a hacker. This was a "floating" free malware disguised in the system. It had the ability of itself like a real world virus to mutate. I know this from the evidence of the damage it did to my files and folders. It had an appetite.

In the end I could not stop it. It was fighting it's way to get to the bios. I had two virus programs going not clashing with each other on my system. One was Norton, the other was Avair. And then a spy thing active too. How it got past the cable companies professional anti stuff no one knows. Even my ISP didn't catch it.

It was wiped out when I restored the system from scratch in the complete overwrite of the discs on my tower. I have not seen any sign of it since nor have others that I know. There was three or so folk over in W. VA. I know who got hit by this and it fried their system down to the bios and then some. I live here in Delaware. Now this was back in mid summer last year. Haven't seen it since. This could be an thing an engineer authored as a "sleeper" something to wake up on a trigger. It was nothing I have ever seen or at least anyone is aware of known. I only know myself and 3 other people having similar experience.

Just thought I would put this here for info. Awareness. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Jeffspirit|Jeffspirit]] ([[User talk:Jeffspirit|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Jeffspirit|contribs]]) 08:11, 4 March 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== [[Laura Burhenn]] ==
we are an acoustic trio (band) named Star FK Radium that is quickly gaining momentum. we've been active for almost 2 years and just self released our first full length cd through our own record label. we have received our first unsolicited review from a washington dc music blog that is currently posted online. we perform all across the united states. at what point is it appropriate for us to create a wikipedia page for our band? we noticed that you deleted laura burhenn's wikipedia page. she was a member of the formerly active band, Georgie James. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Martinguitar|Martinguitar]] ([[User talk:Martinguitar|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Martinguitar|contribs]]) 03:17, 5 March 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
:I deleted the article [[Laura Burhenn]] in 2006 because it was an exact copy of copyrighted text. Wikipedia simply does not accept such violations of copyright (see [[Wikipedia:Copyright violations]] for details). If you would like to create a page for a band, please have a look at Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion at [[Wikipedia:Notability (music)]]. However, in general, Wikipedia discourages writing about one's own organizations because of the [[WP:COI|conflict of interest]]. I hope this helps. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 11:09, 5 March 2010 (UTC)

== atracurium ==

Hi Ed - need your help again - I added some factual historical information to the atracurium page - and again I ran into the same issue with making reference to a duplicate reference. Somehow, I am unable to get it right. Could you please check it and correct it? [I'll then have an idea of how to fix it - sorry]. I tried <refname = Stenlake1981/> but it did not work - perhaps because there are 2 references for the same author within the same year...? I look at other anesthetic agents and noticed that there are a lot of stubs that need to be expanded upon...I still need to complete gantacurium, and I want to add a "nav box" for these agents....thanks--[[User:Ssp37097|Sanjay]] ([[User talk:Ssp37097|talk]]) 08:08, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
:You just need to supply a name for the first reference (it can be named anything you like, not necessary author and year). For example like this: <nowiki><ref name=Stenlake1981>Reference goes here</ref></nowiki>. And then you just need to use <nowiki><ref name=Stenlake1981/></nowiki> to call the same reference again. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 11:29, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

You deleted "Talk:Chuck369/Archive 1" (G8: Page dependent on a deleted or nonexistent page) on 16:26 March 8, 2010. I'm not complaining about the delete, it was a test archive page I created when my account was new. The problem is I never saw the notice.

Thanks for all you work keeping Wikipedia running so well.--[[User:Chuck369|Chuck369]] ([[User talk:Chuck369|talk]]) 00:17, 9 March 2010 (UTC)
:I didn't realize that it was intended to be a user talk subpage since it was titled [[Talk:Chuck369/Archive 1]] instead of [[User talk:Chuck369/Archive 1]]. It was located in the "[[Wikipedia:Main namespace|main namespace]]", rather than "user namespace", so I thought it was an unneeded archive for a non-existent article (hence the deletion summary).

==Mercury Poisoning==

As a Chemist one can not expect you to have Neutral point of view (NPOV) on Mercury Poisoning or Mercury Toxicity as you have never personally experienced it. All you know is ONLY from published literature frequently written by bozos pretending to be experts.
While I have survived very serious mercury poisoning as the result of dental mercury amalgam filings I am the credible expert and material witness including the requirements of expert witness in any court settings. There is a lot of garbage sponsored by the the industry bozos and pseudo experts pretending to know it all, where in reality
they know shit. My testimony is based on hands on experience and not on assumed or presumed "politically correct" rumbling of alleged experts for fees. I have dealt with the real experts specializing on mercury poisoning as well as with Pentagon on the issue of Gulf War Illness (General Rostker) pertaining to poisoning by mercury in vaccines of servicemen during the deployment to Iraq, what resulted in Gulf War Illness. I've received from Pentagon the research materials and summary RAND report with of course some political decisions destroying the credibility of US Government including FDA and EPA.
So my statements as THE MOST EXPERT on MERCURY POISONING do not need to meet your criteria of NPOV as they are actual end unbiased experienced events of systemic chronic poisoning by mercury from silver mercury amalgam fillings after chemical reaction occurred with hydrogen sulfide and the mercury fillings sublimated or if you prefer evaporated living within theteeta yellow greenish deposit of sulfur.
I also have a brother who was a scientific director with PhD in heavy metals of french CLAL and was instrumental to with the union with Engelhard corporation. To really have NPOV one must be only an industry paid servant who dances to their music, and on their terms.
I would like to remind you that real experts are non biased and non prejudiced by a political "trends".
I have caused FDA through the Whitehouse to publish in Federal Registry on February 20, 2002 the DOCKET on mercury effects of poisoning. While one should starve to have NPOV the real expert expresses his experiences his experiences based on the events, and such while might appear for many not to be NPOV with prejudice are undisputed scientific facts and evidence which are as neutral as they should or could be. You need first to think if the industry and special interests including FDA an paid by the industry assholes are neutral with their prejudiced point of prepaid expertise contrary any objective evidence.
Keeping Wikipedia at to the highest standards depends on experts like me, and not on intellectual abortionists and intellectual anorexiacs. I am asking YOU aquestion: Are you objective expert to determine what is an industry lie, or what is bias? I am an expert and my point of view is not only objective, but also factual. I am requesting that you reconsider your stand and change your view on as claimed alleged neutrality.

:Much of your additions to that article were blatant misrepresentations of scientific consensus (such as "the link between autism and mercury poisoning is now conclusive") or coming from an obviously non-neutral in point of view (claims of "flat out FRAUD") which are not permitted by Wikipedia's guidelines. Please have a look at [[WP:NPOV]], [[WP:OR]], and [[WP:RS]] for some guidance. If you are convinced that the scientific literature is "written by bozos pretending to be experts", then Wikipedia is not the place for you. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 23:55, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

== DHA ==
You have removed my corrections in regards to DHA -pregnancy and lactation.The statement that addition of DHA to infant formula makes it closer to breast milk is ridiculous.Breast milk contains a dynamic array of fatty acids.The DHASCO(synthetic triacyclglycerol form of DHA) addition to infant formula is structurally different than breast milk DHA.Maybe you could explain how adding DHASCO to infant formula makes it more like breast milk.You may also want to correct the term "DHA".DHA is not added to Mead Johnson's infant formulas.DHASCO is the proper addition to these formulas.This triacyglycerol will be utilized differently than natural sources of DHA TAGs and phospholipids.You may also want to explain how the addition of DHASCO in combination with ferrous sulfate will not promote peroxidation and will be safe for infant neurodevelopment. <small><span class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Mikepesky|Mikepesky]] ([[User talk:Mikepesky|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Mikepesky|contribs]]) 14:24, 11 March 2010 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

Ed- Can you please enlighten me as to why I get this message if I try editing minor points without logging in (I don't get the same message if I log in though):

"Editing from 75.37.0.0/18 has been disabled by Kyorosuke"

And the reason for this disablement is that:

"CheckUser evidence has determined that this IP address (or network) has been used abusively.
This address (or network) has been blocked temporarily or permanently to prevent further abuse"

Apparently the block is indefinite and yet there is no evidence provided got my alleged abusive use (??) - So, when one clicks on the hyprelink for this Kyorosuke, here's what it says on the Usertalk:Kyorosuke page:

"I'm not really around anymore. Try email, though, and we'll talk.
My username comes from Densetsu no Stafy. Elsewhere, I use the name "six23", which comes from Sgt. Frog. I used to use my real name here, but now I don't. If you look hard enough, you'll find it, but I can't imagine it'll mean much."


It seems a little unfair that someone can go around doing this without providing any evidence in what manner I am abusing Wiki?? Would you please look into this? Thank you ---[[User:Ssp37097|Sanjay]] ([[User talk:Ssp37097|talk]]) 21:32, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

== Speedy Deletion Question ==

Hi!

I'm not sure if you can help me with this, so my apologies if I am wasting your time, but I made an [[eCompete-Online|article]] which was nominated for speedy deletion. I promptly did what was requested of me and then posted on the talk page of the user who nominated it for speedy deletion and asked him to reply back. He said it no longer "interested" him (more or less). I find it a bit insulting to have my article nominated for speedy deletion, do what was requested, and then have the user who wanted the page to be deleted not care at all about it. I feel like he simply wasted my time and was a little bit 'trigger happy' with speedy deletions. Would it be possible to remove the speedy deletion notice? I would do it but I think I read somewhere that I'm not supposed to remove it if it comes from an article I created.

While a little annoying, I will accept the article to be nominated for AfD (the ones where we actually discuss it) although I honestly don't see the harm in keeping the article as I think it's notable, neutral, and informative for those interested in eSports.

Thanks for any help. [[User:mrbutter|<b><font color="black">Ra</font><font color="red">f</font><font color="black">ael</font></b>]] 23:55, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

:It looks like someone else already removed the speedy deletion notice, so the article shouldn't be at risk any more of being quickly deleted. I agree that if someone is going to place a speedy deletion tag on the article, they should at least be willing to discuss it.

I want to say thanks for adding the picture to [[2,4,6-Trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid]]. I am still trying to figure out how to draw chemical compounds on my computer. Out of curiosity how do you do this? I have seen many articles about chemical compounds that do not show their structural formulas and I would like to update these but I can't figure out how.

== Question ==

Hello

I would like to ask your opinion about the format that should be used for the localities from Romania with an important Hungarian population <br>

From the Romanian Constitution: http://www.cdep.ro/pls/dic/site.page?den=act2_2&par1=1#t1c0s0a13 "In Romania, the official language is Romanian". Also, According to Local Public Administration Bill (promulgated in 2001): "Where over 20 of the population is of an ethnic minority, all documents of a legal character will be published in the ethnic minorities' mother tongue.".

My opinion is that according to wiki rules Hungarian names should be listed before for example German names, but still in parantheses, in Italics: '''Romanian_Name''' ({{lang-hu|Hungarian_Name}}, {{lang-de|German_Name}})

We just want to respect the standard naming policy [[WP:PLACE]], [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Lead_section#Foreign_language Foreign language names] and [http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Lead_section#Usage_in_first_sentence first sentence usage] rule

[[User:Rokarudi]], instead of focusing on the discussion, falsely accuses the editors who don't support his POV that are sockpuppets of [[User:Bonaparte]]

Can you please express your opinion here? http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:Administrators%27_noticeboard/Incidents#Hungarian_names_of_Romanian_places

== What's in a name - between friends.... ==

Ed - will you please oblige: names of a specific group of compounds that I am interested need to be consistently formatted wrt to the counter anions - so will you change the title pages to following compounds befitting one way or the other:

Atracurium = atracurium besylate (or besilate, whichever is the INN)
Cisatracurium = cisatracurium besylate (or besilate, whichever is the INN)
Mivacurium = mivacurium chloride
Tubocurarine = tubocurarine chloride
chandonium = chandonium iodide
gallamine = gallamine triethiodide
alcuronium = alcuronium chloride
vecuronium = vecuronium bromide
pancuronium = pancuronium bromide
rocuronium = rocuronium bromide

And i noticed that gantacurium went back and forth and is now stated as gantacurium chloride, as is laudexium metilsulfate - both these have their counter anions stated in the titles

And what about suxamethonium vs succinylcholine - is the former the preferred INN, and therefore did not change title?

Just looking for consistency of drug titles - that is all...so I will know what to do when starting a page for another drug..

Thanks v. much.--[[User:Ssp37097|Sanjay]] ([[User talk:Ssp37097|talk]]) 20:15, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

:OK, I'll find out which are the INNs, and move the articles. I will probably get to it later today. -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 11:15, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

::I have now moved the articles to INN titles (there is consensus for using INNs as titles from both [[WP:PHARM|WikiProject Phamacology]] and [[WP:CHM|WikiProject Chemistry]]). I moved atracurium to [[atracurium besilate]] and cisatracurium to [[cisatracurium besilate]]. The INN for [[chandonium]] is [[candocuronium iodide]], which is different than what you suggested. Suxamethonium, gantacurium, and laudexium were already located at the INNs [[suxamethonium chloride]], [[gantacurium chloride]] and [[laudexium metilsulfate]], respectively. Also, just so you know, you should be able to move articles yourself, except in the situation where the title you are trying to move to already has a history of edits (an administrator has to delete the target first). -- [[User:Edgar181|Ed]] ([[User talk:Edgar181|Edgar181]]) 17:25, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

::: Thanks Ed. 1) I am a little surprised about the chandonium name change [although, admittedly, I dont keep up with INN]; I had never seen it referred to as candocuronium in most of the common literature that I have come across :-) - I'll go in and change the intro accordingly. 2) As a new user, I am little reluctant with messing around with moving stuff around - so I really appreciate it that you changed pages as appropriate upon request.--[[User:Ssp37097|Sanjay]] ([[User talk:Ssp37097|talk]]) 02:41, 6 April 2010 (UTC)

== [[Black Pear Tree]] ==

You deleted an album by Kaki King called '''Black Pear Tree'''. Here is the link for the page that you deleted http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Black_Pear_Tree . It's a perfectly valid page, why did you delete it. You seem to have a habit of randomly deleting pages.--[[Special:Contributions/86.177.3.254|86.177.3.254]] ([[User talk:86.177.3.254|talk]]) 17:00, 7 April 2010 (UTC)
:No, I am not in the habit of randomly deleting pages. Another editor marked that page for deletion because it was essentially just a track listing, and didn't have enough context to even identify the subject of the article. For example, the article didn't even mention that it was about an album by Kaki King. If a reader is unable to even identify the subject of an article, Wikipedia's policy is to remove such an article. When I reviewed the request for deletion, I agreed that it met criteria for speedy deletion (see [[WP:CSD#A1]] for details) and consequently I deleted it.
