creating pages

You are creating large numbers of pages in your userspace. Are you doing so with the assistance of a script? In any case, why are you creating them? tedder (talk) 16:28, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You seem to be unregistered

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard regarding an bot issue. Thank you. Marcus Qwertyus 16:32, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You don't have anything to worry about, Cboursnell, we're just curious what's going on here. We'd just like you to talk to us so we can figure things out, and maybe we can help you out if we know what you're doing. Cheers. lifebaka++ 18:50, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

As a part of a project on the Pfam database I have been creating Wiki pages for them. I have kept them in my userspace so that at a later date someone with expert knowledge of proteins can go through them and tidy them up if necessary and copy them into Wikipedia to be linked to by the Pfam database. I have been working with User:Alexbateman on this project. I talked to someone in the bot approval IRC channel a while back and they seemed to think that there wasn't a problem if I was just editing my userspace. Hope this is ok. I won't be doing any more now though if that helps. Cboursnell (talk) 11:52, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The people in the bot approvals IRC would know better than me. This only got noticed, I'm sure, due to the speed of the creations; we have people who patrol newly created pages, and they would've wondered what's up.

If you've got any more mass page creation to do in your userspace, I'd suggest sticking a note to that effect on your userpage, so that people who notice it in one or another special page can easily find out what's going on. Other than that, carry on with what needs doing, you clearly have it well in hand.

If you have any questions about Wikipedia, feel free to drop me a note at my talk page. Cheers. lifebaka++ 18:49, 1 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks. Cboursnell (talk) 08:28, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

EVH domain, EVH1 domain, Sprouty domain

Hi,

I see you have sandbox pages for EVH1 domain and Sprouty domain.

I have created EVH1 domain. Please merge your page into that.

I will also need to create Sprouty domain; please beat me to the punch and publish your page!

Thanks, Erxnmedia (talk) 06:54, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Erxnmedia. I have created a new article on the Sprouty domain called SPR domain. Please feel free to edit and improve the article! I also see you had some problems with the EVH1 domain content. I'll try and merge in the content from the Sandbox while trying to remove the copyright material. Alexbateman (talk) 09:37, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I also forgot to say that if there are other domains that you want to create pages for you should feel free to copy and modify the content here and copy it across into a new Wikipedia article!!! Alexbateman (talk) 09:39, 8 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Each family page should include clear statement what these proteins do (no families with unknown functions) and at least two supporting refs to satisfy WP:Notability. Then you should put them to mainspace. I can help with general support and advice, but I do not have a lot of time at the moment. Good luck! Biophys (talk) 10:49, 17 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your contributed article, Serine acetyltransferase N-terminal protein domain

Hello, I noticed that you recently created a new page, Serine acetyltransferase N-terminal protein domain. First, thank you for your contribution; Wikipedia relies solely on the efforts of volunteers such as you. Unfortunately, the page you created covers a topic on which we already have a page - Serine O-acetyltransferase. Because of the duplication, your article has been tagged for speedy deletion. Please note that this is not a comment on you personally and we hope you will continue helping to improve Wikipedia. If the topic of the article you created is one that interests you, then perhaps you would like to help out at Serine O-acetyltransferase - you might like to discuss new information at the article's talk page.

If you think that the article you created should remain separate, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Additionally if you would like to have someone review articles you create before they go live so they are not nominated for deletion shortly after you post them, allow me to suggest the article creation process and using our search feature to find related information we already have in the encyclopedia. Try not to be discouraged. Wikipedia looks forward to your future contributions. Kfh123 (talk) 09:59, 17 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for August 22

Hi. In your recent article edits, you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

Sda protein domain (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)

added links pointing to Residue and Antiparallel

Squamosa promoter binding protein (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver)

added a link pointing to Residue

DABlinks

You've got links to Apoprotein, a disambiguation page, in a lot of your sandbox pages (Special:WhatLinksHere/Apoprotein). Dablinks are usually mistakes, and there shouldn't be any in articles unless discussing the ambiguity of the term - in which case they should go through a 'pagename (disambiguation)' redirect. I would fix them myself, but it seems that you know a lot more about th subject than me and could probably do it much more easily and reliably. CarrieVS (talk) 17:03, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
