If you tried the script earlier, there was a small bug. It should be working now.--Erik (not logged in)
- I've added a couple more features: 1) You can see how many photos are left in your slice, 2) You can review and edit all the ones you have approved so far. You've got 150 left in your first slice. Would be cool if you could finish it, and let me know your thoughts so far. :-)--Eloquence* 19:19, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
Respiration
There are a couple of problems with this chart. First of all, it's "Krebs cycle", not "Kreb's cycle" (the man's name was "Krebs"). Second, glycerol is not converted to glucose in the course of being oxidized (nor are the fatty acids that also result from hydrolysis of triglycerides). Josh Cherry 02:40, 22 September 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not sure how to do it simply. Glycerol enters glycolysis in the middle, between glucose and pyruvate. Furthermore, triglyceride fats yield fatty acids as well as glycerol. In fact the fatty acids are most of the mass, and even more of the reducing equivalents (they are oxidized, eventually yielding mostly acetyl-CoA). I'm not sure how all of this should be shown; removing fats from the diagram would be an improvement because it would no longer be wrong. Josh Cherry 02:29, 23 September 2005 (UTC)
- I'm not quite the most talented amongst graphic artists, but here's my rendition. Coincidentally, we just finished up this section in class. (Third-year biochemistry major, University of Texas at Austin) John Sheu 06:19, 28 September 2005 (UTC)
Quartization?

new collaboration project
You'd you be interested in a participating in a new Collaboration project that aims at translating good and featured articles in the French Misplaced Pages to English (much like the Spanish Translation of the Week)? I'm trying to see if there's enough users interested in this project before creating it. Thank you. CG 17:38, 14 December 2005 (UTC)
Pachelbel's Canon
Hello Bdesham,
I've been working on Johann Pachelbel and Pachelbel's Canon recently and, while adding info to the latter, I noticed that every score of the Canon in D I have has a two-measure bass line in quarter notes (and thats what I used for an illustration), while the picture you uploaded for the article shows a four-measure one. My scores are all .pdf downloads, so I guess they might be wrong. How did you make the picture, did you use any printed scores? Or are both ways correct (my music theory/notation knowledge is very basic so I wouldn't know)? Jashiin 20:43, 11 February 2006 (UTC)
Happy Birthday!

Robertson Scholarship listed for deletion
An article that you have been involved in editing, Robertson Scholarship, has been listed at Misplaced Pages:Articles for deletion/Robertson Scholarship. Please look there to see why this is, if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.
Picture at Dies Irae
Hello I often see people moving pictures around on a page and it makes me wonder. I am not complaining, just curious, why did you move the picture at Dies Irae? Stroika 15:17, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

Proposed Georgia Move
As a past participant in the discussion on how to handle the Georgia pages, I thought you might be interested to know that there's a new attempt to reach consensus on the matter being addressed at Talk:Georgia (country)#Requested_Move_-_July_2006.

Inline audio link pop-ups
As you're one of the people who commented about formatting/clutter on the {{audio}} template, I'm wondering what you think of my proposal for a javascript popup instead. I fixed the "clicking on the icon goes to the image page" problem a while ago, but there is still the "overloaded interface"/"too many click targets" problem, and I'm proposing we use javascript to hide the extra links until you hover over it. You can try out the mock-up yourself by adding this to your User:Bdesham/monobook.js:
document.write('<scr' + 'ipt type="text/javascript" src="'
+ 'http://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=User:Omegatron/monobook.js/audiopops.js'
+ '&action=raw&ctype=text/javascript&dontcountme=s"></scr'
+ 'ipt>');
This would be a site-wide change, so everyone would see it, and it safely falls back to the current design with several links on browsers without javascript. I would be happy with any kind of support, suggestions, or criticism; right now I feel like I'm talking to a wall. — Omegatron 18:43, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
I need help with a personal attack against me
User:SqueakBox doesn't like me. He has insulted me in the past and, recently, he was blocked for posting the following insult in his user page: "My greatest achievements here have been and restoring José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero from the POV of another user who claims to write about saints." (See the entry for August 21 in his block log) My nick, Hagiographer means just that, "to write about saints", so it's clear that comment is a direct attack against me. Furthermore, when I came to the article about Zapatero SqueakBox had already been banned from editing Zapatero's editing articles by the Arbitraton Committee (what can he restore?). And, in fact, I've never contributed or deleted information from any of those articles. I simply reverted some vandalism SqueakBox introduced as part of his harassment campaing against other user who was also banned by the same Arbitration Comittee decision. So, that paragraph is pure slander.
Taking WP:NPA into account, I believe that paragraph should be deleted or, at least, marked like what it is, a personal attack. I did just that . However, SqueakBox removed it and User:Guettarda protected the page here. SqueakBox has had a lot of problems with other users and, sometimes, Guettarda has taken part in them. For example, in User:SqueakBox can be found a barnstar given by User:Guettarda in which he says that SqueakBox has gone beyond the call of duty in his fight against "strange" people in the article Javier Solana. WP:NPA states clearly that comments must be about content not users so it's clear that Guettarda and SqueakBox have cooperated in, at least, dubious actions against other users. It's also clear Guettarda is biased in favor of SqueakBox. In this edit in my talk page, he implies that I like looking for conflict, that I'm obsessed with SqueakBox that I've to settle down and so on, all violation of WP:AGF and unpleasant remarks.
It mustn't be forgotten that according to WP:OWN, user pages belong to everybody and I don't believe a wikipedian has any right to transform his user page in a platform to attack other users. So Guettarda's supposed protection of SqueakBox's user page (really of SqueakBox's insults) is very difficult to defend in my opinion.
I'm simply asking fair treatment. I don't believe I have to see how the Misplaced Pages is populated with insults against me. I believe SqueakBox can contribute useful edits without transforming his user page into a gallery of attacks. So please, either unprotect the page so WP:OWN can be applied, or remove the negative comment or mark it as a personal attack untolerable in the Misplaced Pages or, at least, explain to me why I have to bear that kind of treatment. SqueakBox has been blocked for that unpleasant remark, What is the use of blocking him and then keeping the insult? Thank you. Hagiographer 08:00, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
