== I'm sorry, I messed up == |
|||
I'm sorry. I probably should have said something to the effect that it would probably be deleted. I didn't want to just delete it again, and tell you to stop; I didn't consider that it would be worse to let it get tagged for deletion by someone else and taken to MfD. I was mostly trying to move it out of article space, but I ended up setting you up for a nasty experience. I apologize. -[[User:GTBacchus|GTBacchus]]<sup>([[User talk:GTBacchus|talk]])</sup> 12:28, 2 January 2008 (UTC) |

==Amoxicillin== |
|||
I've reverted your change on [[Amoxicillin]] for being instruction and directional, which [[WP:NOT|Wikipedia does not do]]. Such information is appropriate on the product's patient information leaflet, but not in articles on drugs (see [[WP:NOT#GUIDE]], 1st point "Instruction manuals"). Standard layout for drug articles is suggested at [[Wikipedia:Manual of Style (medicine-related articles)#Drugs]].

== Please use talk pages and WikiDoctorate == |
|||
Firstly, please use user talk pages, such as [[User talk:Avraham]] for communication, not user pages, as you did [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=User%3AAvraham&diff=181589879&oldid=177598061 here]. Secondly, may I remind you that although there are greater latitudes given for user pages, no one [[WP:OWN|owns]] any page. The WIki Doctorates was decided overwhelmingly by the community to be too potentially divisive to remain, thus the removal from your page as well. If you are truly interested in recognizing wikipedia editors, I suggest you use the community-accepted [[WP:Barnstar]] methodology. Thank you. -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] ([[User talk:Avraham|talk]]) 17:36, 2 January 2008 (UTC) |

== Difference between recent change patrollers et al. == |
|||
The fundamental difference between [[Wikipedia:Recent changes patrol]], [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Spam]], etc. and your suggestion is that the former and their ilk do '''not''' even <u>imply</u> any inherent superiority of one class of editor over another. They are merely statements of participation in certain wikipedia projects. Similarly, [[WP:Barnstar]]s are given based on events or actions. Even general barnstars do '''not''' imply the editor is "better"—merely that their work is appreciated. |
|||
Using the nomenclature of higher academia automatically implies a class difference and superiority, in as much that the hard work that goes in to the attainment of a real-world doctorate or graduate degree does indicate that the possessor of said degree '''''is''''' more qualified to respond, work, teach, and in general act within the bounds of said degree than someone lacking that level of education. |
|||
Having a form of recognition that [[ipso facto]] seems to bifurcate editors in that way is something against wikipedia's philosophy, and that is why your suggestion, as good-hearted and well-intentioned as I am sure you were, was not accepted by the community. |
|||
I hope this explains the reaction to the suggestion more clearly, and you now understand why references to the project should be deleted. Thank you. -- [[User:Avraham|Avi]] ([[User talk:Avraham|talk]]) 17:44, 2 January 2008 (UTC) |
