Apology

Sincere apologies Dr James, I'm new to wikipedia and accidentally saved some changes to Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style (medicine-related articles). I think I have undone each of these changes and the page should be back to normal. Just wanted to letsomeone know! Thankyou for taking the time to read this message. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Craig R Gill (talk • contribs) 20:08, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

No worries. Nothing around here cannot be fixed. Will take a look. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 20:59, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

Thank you

for the massive amount of construction you do here. You're a gem. Anthony (talk) 10:48, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Thanks. I hope one day Misplaced Pages will be respected by academia... Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 19:33, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Page views

Just a note, since you've requested this info in the past, I've added a new feature to the pageview lister to show the count for all pages in a project for the month. I've also rebuilt the October 2009 table, so it should be fairly accurate now. Mr.Z-man 21:05, 7 August 2010 (UTC)

Pictures

I have been away for a week so I have just seen your comment on how to upload tiff images to commons... Just a comment: you can upload a high quality picture in tiff format (I am not sure of the advantages over png although I believe it may have some). However what you can not do is preview tiff images in commons but you can upload them in two versions: as jpg images (with an small amount of quality lost) and tiff images with top quality. I am also posting this comment in the med project. Bests. --Garrondo (talk) 17:51, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

User:Tenmei and Mentorship

I am not sure how the mentoring process works but links on User:Tenmei's talk page took me here. I have been making minor edits to the articles Military art, War artist, History painting trying find at least some verifiable basis for the articles. Tenmei has come along and added huge volumes of material that seem to be opinion backed up by WP:OR, namely Misplaced Pages:Synthesis. I have posted comments about his latest edits here Talk:Military art#Problematic edits. These need looking into. Ohioartdude2 (talk) 21:24, 8 August 2010 (UTC)

In my view, this query not ripe. --Tenmei (talk) 23:17, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
