Contagion

Can you please cut down the plot summary to under 700 words per WP:FILMPLOT? Thanks, Erik (talk | contribs) 22:01, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Appreciate the awesome "Themes" section addition! I am wondering, in the third paragraph, starting with "Dr. Hextall violates protocols", which reference did you use for the passage? It helps to have a reference at the end of each paragraph so we can know where all the information comes from. I assume it's The New York Times? Just wanted to make sure.

They're examples from the movie which shouldn't need to be cited. A few could be trimmed or removed for brevity. Let's continue this and future discussions on the article talk page. Madcoverboy (talk) 19:52, 13 September 2011 (UTC)

FYI: I tagged an image you uploaded, Chiphilogo.jpg, with {{di-no source}}. --GrapedApe (talk) 03:33, 8 November 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I will endeavour to rewrite the section sometime shortly. Either way, I don't think a single sentence of the current section belongs on Wikipedia. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.243.209.120 (talk) 18:40, 10 November 2011 (UTC)

Interview

Hi Madcoverboy, I am a Wikipedian and researcher from Carnegie Mellon University, working with Professors Robert E. Kraut and Aniket Kittur. We’ve published many scholarly papers on Wikipedia and are partnering with the Wikimedia Foundation on several new projects.

I have been analyzing collaboration in Wikipedia, especially Collaborations of the Week/Month. My analysis of seven years of archival Wikipedia data shows that Collaborations of the Week/Month substantially increase the amount and nature of project members’ contributions, with long lasting effects. We would like to talk to Wikipedians to better understand the processes that that produce this behavior change.

We’ve identified you as a particularly good candidate to speak with because of your involvement with the WikiProject Universities' Collaborations, which is one of those we’ve been investigating. It would really help us if you would be willing to have a short talk with us, less than 30 minutes of your time. We can talk via skype or instant messenger or other means if you’d prefer. Do you have time at any point during this week to chat? If so, please send an email to haiyiz@cs.cmu.edu or drop a line on my talk page.

Thanks!

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited University at Buffalo, The State University of New York, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages DDS and MSW (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.
