	I'm hoping that you will be able to help out at ]. I know that you worked with ] and others on ]. I believe that these introductory pages are extremely important for Misplaced Pages as the main pages can sometimes be dense for the lay reader (] was a lifesaver for me!). I've been working with the editors at IE over the past few months in an on-again, off-again way in a sort of review capacity, but I mostly provide a prose and organization check. I was wondering if you would be willing to provide an outside scientific accuracy check. ] \| ] 20:38, 30 December 2007 (UTC)

			I have provided some additional sources which the general reader can also understand. For us scientists, youtube may seem an unreliable source, but that is only the case if the source itself is unreliable, which is why I have collected videos from somewhat reputable sources such as the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) and others. This is so the general public can also partake and understand some of the main concepts of human evolution whereas if I only used peer reviewed scientific journals, the only people reading them would be the small minority of scientists on planet Earth. But as source of reference I will nonetheless continue to include peer reviewed scientific sources so that the scientific community will began to understand that human evolution is not the way they want it to be, but far more complicated series of migrations, evolution due to the selective pressure of their respective geographical location and possible interbreedings resulting in the modern day Homo Sapiens who happen to be part Homo Neanderthalensis and the ] anatomically modern ] who may either be part Homo Neanderthalensis due to possible interbreeding or it is possible the ] in ] did not significantly interbreed with the ] and that the anatomically modern Chinese Homo Erectus alive today simply retain what seems to be "neanderthal" genes because the Neanderthals were direct descendants of ] which happens to be either a separate species or subspecies of ], and as such they both carry similar genes and passed them into their progeny in both respective evolutionary branches. Thank you! Please watch :
	:Yes, please do, ]! I just gave it a cursory review, but I doubt my expertise and wonder whether I was too demanding for an introductory article aimed at high-school students. It's clear that the authors have lavished a lot of care and thought to the article, and made clear strategic choices on the writing and referencing.

	=== Hi Tim! ===

			{{Col-begin}}
	Just seen the reference by Alun to me from last November; I am interested mainly in the Francis Crick article and helping John Schmidt to improve on it (it's already pretty good) and same for Maurice Wilkins one of these days! Incidentally I am the pround father of a Cambridge son Year 4 doing a Masters NatSci and a Bristolian daughter studying Animal Behaviour and Welfare.

			\|-
	I am leaving you this message because recent events have given me concern. When Aaron ] and I, and others, first developed this category well over a year ago, we visualized it as a simple idea. A low hassle, low bureaucracy process. We also visualized it as a process that people would come to trust, in fact as a way of increasing trust in those admins who chose to subscribe to the notion of recall. The very informal approach to who is qualified to recall, what happens during it, and the process in general were all part of that approach.
			\|]

			\|-
	But recent events have suggested that this low structure approach may not be entirely effective. More than one of the recent recalls we have seen have been marred by controversy around what was going to happen, and when. Worse, they were marred by some folk having the perception, rightly or wrongly, that the admin being recalled was trying to change the rules, avoid the process, or in other ways somehow go back on their word. This is bad. It's bad for you the admin, bad for the trust in the process, and bad for the community as a whole.
			\|align=right style="font-size:70%"\|]

			\|}
	I think a way to address this issue is to increase the predictability of the process in advance. I have tried to do that for myself. In my ] page, I have given pretty concrete definitions of the criteria for recall, and of the choices I can make, and of the process for the petition, and of the process for other choices I might make (the modified RfC or the RfAr). I think it would be very helpful if other admins who have voluntarily made themselves subject to recall went to similar detail. It is not necessary to adopt the exact same conditions, steps, criteria, etc. It's just helpful to have SOME. Those are mine, fashion yours as you see fit, I would not be so presumptuous as to say mine are right for you. In fact I urge you not to just adopt mine, as I do change them from time to time without notice, but instead develop your own. You are very welcome to start with mine if you so wish, though.
			{{Col-4}}

			*]
	But do something. If you have not already, I urge you to make your process more concrete, now, while there is no pressure and you can think clearly about what you want. Do it now rather than later, during a recall when folk may not react well to perceived changes in process or commitment.
			*]

			{{Col-4}}
	Further, I suggest that after you document your process, that you give a reference to it for the benefit of other admins who may want to see what others have done. List it in ] as a resource for the benefit of all. If you use someone else's by reference rather than copy, I suggest you might want to do as Cacharoth did, and give a link to a specific version.
			*]

			*]
	Do you have to do these things? Not at all. These are suggestions from me, and me alone, and are entirely up to you to embrace or ignore. I just think that doing this now, thinking now, documenting now, will save you trouble later, if you should for whatever reason happen to be recalled.
			{{Col-4}}

			*]
	I apologise if this message seems impersonal, but with over 130 members in the category, leaving a personal message for each of you might not have been feasible, and I feel this is important enough to violate social norms a bit. I hope that's OK. Thanks for your time and consideration, and best wishes.

	== Orthomolecular psychiatry ==

	Hi Tim,

	I was wondering if we could get your friendly admin's eye over on ]. There's an ongoing disagreement on whether the ] section is ]/] or not, and there's a basic disagreement that isn't changing. It's extensively documented on the talk page (now VERY long!); there was a RFC that didn't work (not sure why, could have been my fault and given the quick pace of editing I didn't think it worth re-filing) and lots of typing, but no real movement forward.

	Please let me know if you'd like more details, or just pop a new section in on ]. We're expecting your comment (in the sense that we've agreed to ask you for an opinion as an admin and long-term editor, not that we rudely insist upon it - think of it more as a 'please come help', but said with ]) though we also agree that yours is not necessarily the final word, just one way of trying to work this out.

	Discussion has been admirably civil, but lengthy. I suggested you as a potential candidate to ask due to your edits to ] a while back - you would have encountered Alterrabe (sp) on that page as well.

	Thanks,

	] (]) 16:28, 11 January 2008 (UTC)


	Tim,

	I inadvertently undid the changes you made to the section on celiac disease and schizophrenia. I don't understand the rational for minimizing the flaws with the studies that found no link, but would be happy to hear your thinking.

	And thank you for your additions to the copper discussion.--] (]) 20:45, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

	How would "these rare patients" strike you? "Unusual patients" can sound cruel in the given context.--] (]) 20:54, 11 January 2008 (UTC)

	== wikipedia weekly interview ==

	Hi there Tim,
	I was wondering if you would be interested in coming on ] podcast to do an interview?
	I was tipped off by ] that you might be a really interesting person to talk to. I try to mix up the experiences and backgrounds of interviewees (to show the diversity of people involved in WP) so to have someone from a science background (and from scotland too) would be great.

	Some things we could potentially discuss are:
	* The FA process for science articles <nowiki>] and ]</nowiki> especially.
	* ProteinBoxBot and the Rfam database.
	* the Molecular and Cellular Biology WikiProject and its publicity in the American Chemical Society Chemical Biology.

	If you are interested, we record via ] so you would need that and a headset microphone. Thursday-Sunday are good days for me, as I am in Australia we would have to coordinate timezones...

	Please leave me a message on my talkpage.

	There is a principle of one-way linking for fringe topics that prevents soapboxing. The idea is that if an idea is notable, we can discuss it in its relevant article. So if a homeopathic remedy is notable, it should be discussed in an article about the homeopathic remedy. However, homeopathy is rarely relevant outside the world of homeopathic medicine: most mainstream sources ignore it when describing plants or chemicals. Therefore, we should not be in the business of advertising homeopathy at those mainstream articles. Undue weight sometimes means no weight at all. ] (]) 23:10, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

I've removed this tag, because there's an unfortunate circle going on here. The source file was deleted because it wasn't being used due to this file format being preferred, and now we want to delete the preferred copy because the source file was deleted in favor of this one. If we need to have the license of the source file visible to non-admins, then the source file should be restored. WhatamIdoing (talk) 18:26, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
