I did not think your note on Talk:Jacob Zuma was either too long, or in the wrong place.

Great job on Manto Tshabalala-Msimang. As you are new here, I would like to point out the What links here link on each page, which might lead you to other related pages in need of expansion. Also, if you go to your Preferences, you can put a string in Nickname like [[User:Joewright|Joe]] [[User Talk:Joewright|Talk]] and then sign with 4 tildes ~~~~

Nice job on Thabo Mbeki - it definitely needed the work. Wizzy 06:34, 18 October 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The above article is likely to be selected as next weeks choice at Wikipedia:Article Improvement Drive if it receives a few more votes. It is of interest to Wikipedians in general, and would improve the profile of medical-related topics on Wikipedia. To vote, click on WP:AID and sign your name in the Emergency department section.--File Éireann 18:50, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

San Francisco Burrito

[edit]

Hi Joe,

I, Dave Yost, hereby award Joewright this Oddball Barnstar for making me hungry at San Francisco Burrito --Dvyost 06:02, 3 December 2005 (UTC).[reply]

After seeing your fine contributions to the Africa COTF, I checked out your user page and found your equally fine article on the San Francisco Burrito. Great stuff, and not to be found anywhere else--the kind of article that really proves Wikipedia's worth, I think. Kudos! --Dvyost 06:02, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

It's well-deserved! Keep up the good work... --Dvyost 06:17, 3 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Ions

[edit]

Hello. I would not contact you except I see you are a medical student, so cations and anions should be your bread and oleo, in a way. I think I fixed up some stuff you wrote on divalent but since I am a physicist not a chemist, you might want to review what I did. Best regards for the holiday season. PS: I may have dabbled in related pages, too (anion or cation). Carrionluggage 16:44, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, great work this page! One thing: diseases of iron regulation more than just hemochromatosis I think (e.g. siderosis). --WS 22:01, 8 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

BCM

[edit]

Hi there. I am not sure if you are aware that Black consciousness movement is up at Wikipedia:Article Improvement Drive until 28 December. You may (or may not) want to cast a vote... Anyways thank you for your great contributions on that article. Cheers Banes 06:40, 27 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

You voted for AIDS, the current Medicine Collaboration of the Week. You are invited to help improve it! — Knowledge Seeker 07:56, 11 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Joe. Fascinating reading that you have contributed to the Coloured article on so-called identity politics. Looking forward to seeing more added in future! =J //Big Adamsky 14:19, 18 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi!

[edit]

Hi Joeright. Thanks for your message... We shall talk more after my university exams this Feb.

Plan Espiritual de Aztlán

[edit]

Thank you for your work on the article. It is much more balanced now. However, while I agree that the plan shares much philosophical terrain with the work of Fanon, I don't believe his work or theories informed the actual writing of the plan. Rather, its philosophical origins lay primarily with José Vasconcelos' concept of la raza cósmica and an indigenous concept of Marxism that finds visual manifestation in the work of Diego Rivera. I've been meaning to work on this article for ages but have never gotten around to it, so I appreciate you efforts. Maybe we can use Fanon's analytical framework to psychologically analyze the plan in terms of colonizer/colonized by way of conclusion? Just a thought. Let me know what you think.--Rockero 17:19, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Please have a look at recent changes by a new user to the page, which is essentially adding an academic paper on the end. Harro5 06:36, 27 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

“Medicine” on MCOTW

[edit]

After a bit of inactivity, Medicine has been selected as the new medicine collaboration of the week. I am taking the unusual step of informing all participants, not just those who voted for it, since I feel that it is important that this highest-level topic for our collaboration be extremely well-written. In addition, it is a core topic for Wikipedia 1.0 and serves as the introduction to our other articles. Yet general articles are the ones that are most difficult for individuals to write, which is why I have invited all participants. I hope it isn't an intrusion; I don't make plan to make a habit of sending out these messages. — Knowledge Seeker 02:16, 16 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

AIDS as featured article main page appearance

[edit]

hi there. in case you missed it, i thought you might like to know AIDS is appearing on the main page as a featured article on June 15th (this month). if you could, it'd prolly help to have someone keeping an eye out for vandals specifically on that date, since as of right now there is at least one vandalizing a day since it's FA status. now would also be a good time to copyedit it before the big slam on its main page day. :) JoeSmack Talk 16:32, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Hey, I was wondering if you could contribute to the discussion at Wikipedia:User_categories_for_discussion#Category:Wikipedians_interested_in_burritology. If you could add anything, that would be great. If not, no worries. —Viriditas | Talk 06:08, 9 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Health Wiki Research

[edit]

A colleague and I are conducting a study on health wikis. We are looking at how wikis co-construct health information and create communities. We noticed that you are a frequent contributor to Wikipedia on health topics.

Please consider taking our survey here.

This research will help wikipedia and other wikis understand how health information is co-created and used.

We are from James Madison University in Harrisonburg, Virginia. The project was approved by our university research committee and members of the Wikipedia Foundation.

Thanks, Corey 15:56, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Burrito studies

[edit]

I just added a data point on Fred's Mexican Café due to their notable variation on the San diego style burrito, which in retrospect appears to be 1950s Los Angeles style as described in the timeline. Further research is required. —Viriditas | Talk 22:39, 1 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

List of taco fillings has been nominated for deletion, along with List of burrito fillings. See Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of taco fillings. BlankVerse 14:46, 4 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Zackie Achmat

[edit]

In a recent edit to the page about Zackie Achmat, you removed information about the recent "legal" action against Achmat by Anthony Brink. In spite of the obvious idiocy of the charges, I do feel the information should remain in the encyclopaedia, perhaps reworded to clarify the nature of the charges. I won't do this myself, however if you'd like to discuss this and explain further why you feel the info shouldn't be on Wikipedia, please feel free to post to my talk page, or the page's discussion page. I think we are in basic agreement about the nature of the "charges"! You might be interested in this article, which appeared in the UK press: [1] Ooooooooo 19:05, 22 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Wiki Medicine

[edit]

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) 08:21, 1 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

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 :)

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process.

The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
