To start, thanks for a brilliant article on ]. We've been busying translating it for the Finnish wikipedia for about a month now. We're in the final stages (i.e. Replication) and I starting pondering the following sentence: | |||

1) This causes the breakdown of VP7 trimers into single protein subunits, 2) leaving the VP2 and VP6 protein coats around the viral dsRNA, 3) forming a double-layered particle (DLP). | |||

Does the bracketed sentence cause 1-3, or does 1 cause 2, which causes 3? Thanks for your help! -] (]) 20:06, 22 March 2009 (UTC) | |||

::''Proteins in the third layer (VP7 and the VP4 spike) disrupt the membrane of the endosome this causes a difference in the calcium concentration. This difference in calcium concentration then causes the breakdown of VP7 trimers (three units) into single protein (one unit) subunits.

:Green pus is good. It is a sign of a life. I'm sorry to have added to the (too) long a list— but duty calls. Content, and especially FA level content, is why we spend so long working here.

Thank you for submitting Phagocyte for FA. I apologize for not doing this sooner.

:Hi Eulemur, it had be nominated this week because I have taken leave from the lab to look after you and the article. Don't be too quick to respond to any advice at the FAC; it might not be good advice and (though I am sure you will not) don't take any negative comments personally. Be polite to the reviewers for without their comments we will not succeed. Most important of all - don't worry, all the hardest work has been done.

:Thanks x ] (]) 08:48, 21 December 2024 (UTC) | |||
I respect not trying to list all of the problems with prose, but it's generally unhelpful to get vague notions of poor prose without at least a couple of examples. If I have no idea what you are looking at then I cannot possibly fix it. Most of the prose hasn't been touched in awhile, so I'm sure it could use some assistance. Nevertheless, some people say there are prose issues when there is actually just confusion over events (i.e. someone close to the project doesn't realize that a particular point was not explained well for those who know nothing about it), while other times there are real issues with grammer, sentence structure, or just basic flow of text. Without some form of example I cannot fix the problem, and "find a third-party editor" doesn't always fix the issue either (especially if it takes half a year to get a copy editor to the article). So, I respectfully request that you come back to the FAC and provide me with some form of assistance so that I can better understand your qualms with the prose. ] ] 19:31, 30 March 2009 (UTC) |

Bladder cancer
Hi Graham Beards. I've just finished a first pass at overhauling bladder cancer, and am hoping to bring it to FAC soon. Any chance you could spare some time to look it over? Any feedback is appreciated. Ajpolino (talk) 22:05, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Yes of course. Graham Beards (talk) 07:51, 14 December 2024 (UTC)
