Nice work

Very nice work with the cleanup that you did here. Are you a professional editor? LK (talk) 08:05, 5 February 2013 (UTC)

No, although I'm sure I could rival any editor for pedantry. For the moment, I'm just a college student (in economics, actually). But I'm pleased that you would think so! —Neil 00:54, 6 February 2013 (UTC)

Removed link "Adaptogens and their effect on Cortisol and ACTH; blood tests included

Neil, I added that link to justify my claims, that is, the line I added to the article adrenocorticotropic hormone: Adaptogens, especially Ashwagandha, may also help lower elevated ACTH levels, by normalizing endocrine system function.

Maybe my site isn't a medical journal but my claims are true since I speak from experience. I also have legit and verified lab results that support my claims.

I though that wikipedia is information sharing site and that my experience could help someone. External links from wikipedia have nofollow tag anyway. So, I won't have much use from it.

Now, I see that citation is needed. Should I add a link to citation or leave it as it is. (talk) 19:45, 29 Septemeber 2013

Thanks for explaining it, Neal. I could understand the fact if they reject non-proven claims with lack of evidence but mine is backed up with experience and plenty of evidence. However, it is not your fault. You are just acting as wikipedia policy dictates.

If reliable source could verify my claims, we wouldn't have this problem. Is there any way I could do this? Maybe submit my informations to organization that would looked into it? (talk) 21:58, 29 Septemeber 2013 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.137.25.123 (talk)

Well, I agree with that. I have just one question. Could I add a link to references on adrenocorticotropic hormone article? Would that be violation of policy? I tried to do it before but couldn't embed it properly.

I believe the answer is probably no. Anyway, thanks for everything. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.137.25.123 (talk) 21:21, 29 September 2013 (UTC)

Third Opinion Award

		The Third Opinion Award
		Neil has been most helpful in mediating a recent dispute. He set a fair and reasonable criteria for submitting strong reliable sources which helped us disregard tertiary sources and focus on what well renowned historians actually said about the matter. He invested much of his time in not only analyzing both sides of the conflict but in doing additional research to gain a thorough understanding of the time period in question. He sets an example to what any mediator should aspire to be. — Scoobydunk (talk) 00:35, 9 October 2013 (UTC)

Some baklava for you!

I am fresh out of wiki kittens; please accept this cake as a thank you for your thoughtful comments during my (now withdrawn) RfA. Constructive criticism is always appreciated. What doesn't kill us... Cheers, Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:46, 12 February 2014 (UTC)

DYK for Thomas Osborne (publisher)

On 17 March 2014, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Thomas Osborne (publisher), which you recently created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that Samuel Johnson boasted that he once knocked publisher Thomas Osborne to the ground with a heavy folio? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Thomas Osborne (publisher). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Well, thank you for the article Victuallers (talk) 16:04, 17 March 2014 (UTC)

British Rail Class 67

Re: , please see corresponding log for . (Why this failed to get nuked at the same time, I don't know). —Sladen (talk) 22:28, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

• Sladen, I certainly have no objection to reverting those moves. But I don't see why it's necessary to delete the redirects—I can certainly imagine that someone might type in "British Rail class 67" when they want this article, and it does no harm to have a redirect sitting around even if it's rarely used. Anyway, R3 is only for "implausible typos or misnomers", and the fact that a user tried to move the page there shows it's at least plausible as an alternative name.—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 22:43, 7 September 2014 (UTC)

chagatai khanate

you removed reference on that page why? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.209.191.163 (talk) 08:52, 13 September 2014 (UTC)

Some bubble tea for you!

Thanks for the "Thanks"! It's been quite a while since I've edited Wikepeida.... so many new social features (eg. "Thanks", "WikiLove", etc). Brianrisk (talk) 20:14, 28 September 2014 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	The Defender of the Wiki Barnstar
	Thanks for doing such a thorough investigation and documenting your findings on this ongoing issue. It's nice to have something to link to in the block logs, etc. I will try to keep it updated :) Cheers — MusikAnimal 05:17, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

@MusikAnimal: Thanks for the barnstar! It helps reassure me that I'm not obsessive for documenting like this :) Do you know of a central location for logs like this? Seems like it might be hard for others to find in my userspace.—Neil P. Quinn (talk) 16:09, 29 September 2014 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for September 29

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Misplaced Pages appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Timur, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Ghazi. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
