Sting Ray injury

Thank you for your response to my suggestion to add "fungal infection " to the possible consequences of a ray sting. It appears my response was truncated, so I will try again here. I apologise for cluttering the site. At your request, i found a link associating fungal infection with a sting ray injury.

http://www.researchgate.net/publication/229163466_Preliminary_investigation_on_antimicrobial_and_proteolytic_property_of_the_epidermal_mucus_secretion_of_marine_stingrays.

I received a classic sting ray injury on 06JUL12 in Kenya and after initial testing from swabs was advised that the site had a fungal infection by my local medical practice in early AUG12 after returning to Queensland. On 03OCT12, the Infectious Diseases (ID) unit of Nambour General Hospital advised that the fungus was a plant pathogen called Lasiodiphlodia theobromae. Treatment using Vfend(r) had commenced on 29AUG12 and clinical progress has been noted. Next check up is on 22OCT12. The Mycology reference lab of South Australia has not published a paper nor has anyone from the ID dept as far as I'm aware. The only good thing that has come out of the experience was that it's an unusual and interesting case. The reason for publishing this info for awareness. I was lucky to have been in a first world country, my ulcer had developed to grade 111 and the outcome could have been devastating if untreated as antibiotics had not worked. If of interest, see my comments under my short Youtube clip titled "Kenya:Stingray attack".

Here's a link involving the transfer of another pathogen by ray to a wound site: http://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/nejm200003163421118. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ukunda (talk • contribs) 06:30, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

And another link that provides date on a fungal infection from a stingray.

I'll take a look when I have some more time, but this individual must meet the notability criteria for inclusion in order to have a stand-alone article about him. Collegiate athletes generally do not meet the notability criteria solely for playing at the collegiate level, so we need to consider how much non-trivial coverage he has gotten in reliable sources, both during his lifetime and since. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 21:49, 25 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you re: Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange

Thank you for your recent edit on the article Roman Catholic Diocese of Orange. It complies with Wikipedia policies such as WP:CRYSTAL. I can tell you that there is an endemic problem in articles under the care of WP:Catholicism that WP:CRYSTAL is violated quite often by other editors. If you want the extra work (and feel free to say no) please take a look at WT:CATHOLIC for discussion about episcopal appointments and how they really work according to canon law and Church regulations. There are many, many bishop's and diocese's articles which are afflicted with the misconception that a bishop's reign begins with his appointment, and it unfortunately does not. I am slowly working through a backlog of old articles and trying to watch all the new ones, but it is rather larger than one person to stop. I have considered bringing it to WP:ANI or perhaps WP:BLPN first, and soon, because every week brings more appointments from Rome and more cleanup that I have to do to conform with Wikipedia policy. Thanks again for your edit, and have a nice day! Elizium23 (talk) 05:53, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

I took a look at the relevant discussion at WT:CATHOLIC and while I support your position I don't want to commit to additional work at this time. If you do report this at ANI or BLPN drop me a line and I'll see if I can contribute anything to the discussion. If I come across articles on bishops and/or dioceses with incorrect info in the course of my normal browsing/editing I'll go ahead and correct them. Thanks for helping to improve Wikipedia! —KuyaBriBri^Talk 19:32, 3 November 2012 (UTC)

RE [1]:

From the MfD nomination instructions: "Users must be logged in to complete steps II and III. An unregistered user who wishes to nominate a page for deletion should complete step I and post their reasoning on Wikipedia talk:Miscellany for deletion with a notification to a registered user to complete the process."

WT:MFD hasn't had a single edit in two weeks. The suggestion to post a notification there is a stupid one imho. Why not just do it via an editsemiprotected request on the talk page? I'm always doing it that way btw. I don't mindlessly adhere to instructions which make less sense and are less viable than available alternate solutions.

At any rate, I've completed step I and since you agree and we already have a valid and clearcut deletion rationale (WP:UP#NOT: "Writings, information, discussions, and activities not closely related to Wikipedia's goals"), I'd very much appreciate it if you would unbureaucratically complete steps II and III. Otherwise, I'll simply instate another edit request at the article talk page for someone else, someone who understands the folly of taking the time to post a comment pointing to "correct" process rather than taking the same or probably much less time to just quickly twinkle the userpage up for deletion. No offense, but policy wonkery makes limited sense. --87.79.231.4 (talk) 15:56, 9 November 2012 (UTC)

You had kindly saved the article on the Indian Naval war hero Nilakanta Krishnan from deletion in April 2012. My humble gratitude. There is a request for an image at his talk page.

Anant (talk) 11:43, 16 December 2012 (UTC)

Just want to point out that I didn't "save" the article from deletion; I merely pointed out that another user nominated it for deletion outside of policy/process. That same editor has since made several edits to improve the article.

Since the biography you cited is a copyrighted work, the short answer to your question is no, images from that book cannot be uploaded to Wikimedia Commons. However, since Mr. Krishnan is deceased, you can probably make a case to upload an image from that book to English Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 15:45, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Creme Puff

Hi there - I'm one revert away from a 3RR edit war with Johnny Squeaky about the subject article being a "hoax". According to Squeaky, now it's a "well-known hoax." As you know, this has been going on with Squeaky for more than a year. I believe Squeaky thinks this is a huge joke. Perhaps you could offer a suggestion. P.S. - That Monkey Tennis AfD thing on your user page was truly hilarious. Cheers. --Seduisant (talk) 03:08, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

I've dropped him a line on his talk page requesting that he engage me/us on the article talk page. I believe that until he engages in discussion his addition of the {{hoax}} tag is clearly against consensus and is therefore vandalism. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 03:29, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

Puffy Cat

I'm sorry to disappoint you on two fronts. First, I am not "involved in an edit war", rather I added a Hoax tag because there are very real questions about the veracity of the claim related to this article, and while I understand there is dispute here, the simple fact that there is serious question is enough to validate the "Hoax" tag.

Secondly and more importantly, I do not respond well to threats, and almost certainly will not respond to you again if you continue to post threatening and nonconstructive messages on my Talk Page.

While I realize that there are a great many "editors" as well as Admin here with serious WP:OWN issues, this is no reason to jump to conclusions that end in making threatening comments on people's Talk Pages where actual discussion would be a better approach.

Further I would like to know exactly what your position is in this matter? Have you edited this article? Do you have a personal opinion that would call into question your ability to pass unbiased judgments? =//= Johnny Squeaky 03:41, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

You have made quite a few vague claims that there is a dispute as to the truth of the article, but have not provided any reliable sources to back those claims. If you would just provide such a source or sources I would be more than willing to help rectify the matter. "I know it to be true" or "I heard it somewhere" is not good enough; that's original research. This has been my position all along, but you have not responded to repeated requests for sources.

As for my "opinion" on the subject matter, I have no bias one way or the other. I hadn't even heard about this cat until I stumbled across it on a routine patrol of recent changes several months ago. As I said before, I will help you if you would just provide a reliable source to back your claims.

I stand by my comments on your talk page; if you interpret them as "threats" that's your problem. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 04:17, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

About providing links

Hi. I want to apologize in advance if this is a hassle. I know you state plainly on your profile page that you're not a mod or admin, but you are a veteran member who knows his way around, so I thought you might be able to help me.

I added some new info to an article along with the relevant references/sources, but I'm worried that the links may be deemed inadequate? The article that I'm using as a reference is not available on the actual newspaper's website (although if you do a news archive search on google, you can find evidence that the article did exist here [it's the first result], only when you click on the link it leads you to a page that claims that the newspaper's archives are still being "built out").

However, I was able to find a complete reprinting of that article on another site (and at the bottom of the article it clearly states the original source of the article), so I ended up just linking to that site: http://www.redorbit.com/news/entertainment/1544288/a_long_strange_trip_with_celine/

I am worried that I might not be following wikipedia protocol by labelling a reference as coming from the "Buffalo News" when the actual link leads instead to the "Red Orbit" site (which I'm not even sure is considered reputable). Is this all right?

My second question concerns links to news articles that only show a preview of the article (as the full article is only available to subscribers). In this case, will a link to the article preview be enough? (the quote I'm using can be seen in the article preview btw) Thank you very much!Darkesirranch (talk) 04:51, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

Hello. My opinion on your first question is by no means authoritative. If the article from Buffalo News is copied verbatim to the Red Orbit site and properly attributed, then it is acceptable to use as a reference on a Wikipedia article. I've never seen Red Orbit, but there are quite a few sites out there that reprint articles published by others with proper attribution. A big example of this that I can think of offhand is Associated Press news articles. Usually when I do this I list the original publisher as the "Work" (in this case, Buffalo News) and the republisher as the "Publisher" (in this case, Red Orbit)

As for your second question, articles behind paywalls are acceptable to use as references. In this case it is preferred that you provide as much information as possible including author, title, original publication date, and work. I can tell you that linking to paywalled articles does frustrate some users, myself included, but it is acceptable. Many Wikipedia users in good standing either pay for subscriptions themselves or have access to institutional subscriptions, such as through their college or workplace.

I hope all that helps. Best of luck, —KuyaBriBri^Talk 05:36, 6 January 2013 (UTC)

You can certainly add links to the article (bare links are not preferred but are better than nothing); however, information from the subject's own website is not considered a reliable source. Reliable sources are generally news sources, books, magazines, or any publication that has an established reputation for fact checking.

Roger Mahony

Hi there,

You collapsed the sourced lede paragraph about Mahony's "relief from duties" that I had added last night, into the preceding paragraph and moved the citations to the body of the article in the Retirement section. Because of the unprecedented nature of the relief, I restored the separate paragraph, with an explanation in the comment box, i.e. I used the Joe Paterno article as a reference. I kept your revised text, however, and deferred to your implicit judgment that sources in the body of the article suffice for statements in the lede. Now, after another editor modified the lede paragraph, you moved the "relief" sentence back into the preceding paragraph and complained about the lack of sourcing, which you had earlier removed.

I'm going to move "relief" back to its own lede paragraph, using your language and without the citations that you removed, adding only the modifier "unprecedented" per the LA Times source. I'll also look into the additional material from the other editor to see if I can find adequate sources for it and will restore it, either to the lede or to the Retirement section as appropriate. I will welcome your thoughts about those decisions, but please leave "relief" to its separate paragraph in the lede.

Cheers,

Lahaun (talk) 20:37, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Ok, now I'm going wait until you deal with the other editor's work. I agree the sources need work, but the substance seems legitimate.

Lahaun (talk) 20:42, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

See my comment on Talk:Roger Mahony. Cheers, —KuyaBriBri^Talk 20:46, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

To address your comment on the censure having its own paragraph in the lead, the only reason I combined it with the previous paragraph is because paragraphs should consist of more than one sentence, and when I was done removing unsourced contentious information the paragraph only had one sentence. I figured it went well enough with the previous paragraph that appending that one sentence to the end of it was okay. If you can come up with additional sourced material to add to that information I might be amenable to a stand-alone paragraph in the lead. Cheers, —KuyaBriBri^Talk 20:53, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Now, that's interesting. I've always written one sentence paragraphs in all kinds of documents and media. Alas, I don't have a copy of Strunk and White handy, and I suppose it's possible I've been wrong for decades. It seems a little silly to add an unnecessary sentence just to stretch the paragraph out, though. Gotta run now, maybe we'll talk later. Lahaun (talk) 21:10, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Roger Mahony

The sentence is added, and it is easily verifyable by a great many sources. By virtue of the fact that Mahony is a cardinal and less than eighty years old, he will attend the papal conclave. By virtue of the fact that Archbishop Gomez is not a cardinal, he will not. I don't think this warrants a citation; it seems far to basic a fact. Else, we would have to offer citations when we point out that the sky is blue. I think that's rather overkill, and I can see a similar problem with such scrupulosity in some of the other messages on this page. InFairness (talk) 22:53, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

The only parts of the sentence you added that are easily verifiable, as you say, are that Mahony will be traveling to Rome for the conclave and that at least to date Gomez has never been created a cardinal. Here are the problems with the sentence you added:

• Saying that "the pope has had several opportunities to make Gomez a cardinal" without attribution is OR, and the way it you worded it makes it sound like he deserves to be one but isn't, which is editorializing and therefore a violation of the neutral point-of-view policy.
• "Gomez...gets to stay home" is also OR without attribution as it is entirely possible for him to travel elsewhere, or even to Rome for some other purpose.
• "Gomez...will finance Cardinal Mahony's trip" is also OR without attribution. How do we know that Gomez or even the Archdiocese of Los Angeles is financing his trip? It's entirely possible that the Vatican or Mahony himself will finance the trip.

Per the policy on biographies of living persons, any unsourced, contentious information on living persons is to be removed immediately without discussion, and that is exactly what I have done. —KuyaBriBri^Talk 15:35, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

Notice of Dispute resolution discussion

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard regarding a content dispute in which you may have been involved. Content disputes can hold up article development, therefore we are requesting your participation to help find a resolution. The thread is "Karl Marx".

Guide for participants If you wish to open a DR/N filing, click the "Request dispute resolution" button below this guide or go to Wikipedia:Dispute resolution noticeboard/request for an easy to follow, step by step request form. What this noticeboard is: It is an early step to resolve content disputes after talk page discussions have stalled. If it's something we can't help you with, or is too complex to resolve here, our volunteers will point you in the right direction. What this noticeboard is not: It is not a place to deal with the behavior of other editors. We deal with disputes about article content, not disputes about user conduct. It is not a place to discuss disputes that are already under discussion at other dispute resolution forums. It is not a substitute for the talk pages: the dispute must have been discussed extensively on a talk page (not just through edit summaries) before resorting to DRN. It is not a court with judges or arbitrators that issue binding decisions: we focus on resolving disputes through consensus, compromise, and explanation of policy. Things to remember: Discussions should be civil, calm, concise, neutral, and objective. Comment only about the article's content, not the other editors. Participants who go off-topic or become uncivil may be asked to leave the discussion. Let the other editors know about the discussion by posting {{subst:drn-notice}} on their user talk page.

As for your actual question for UtherSRG, please take a look at Donor Sibling Registry and Talk:Donor Sibling Registry. Is that what you are looking for? Wikipedia page titles are case sensitive, so Donor sibling registry is a completely different page (which happens to exist as a redirect to Donor Sibling Registry). Let me know if you have any further need for help. —KuyaBriBriTalk 18:36, 22 April 2013 (UTC) Hi, KuyaBriBri, I guess my question is really: When my boss (the Exec. Director of Donor Sibling Registry) wants to suggest/request edits to the DSR article (because numbers have changed, there's new research to post, etc.), how should she do that? Someone in the help forum told me she should use the Talk page, rather than contributing the info herself, to avoid conflict of interest. I can give her the link to the Talk page that you posted above, but she's going to be more confused than I am about what to do with it. (Is editing this post to ask additional questions the best way to do this?) Thanks so much! AlexisTabasco cat (talk) 17:44, 25 April 2013 (UTC) There are a couple of things that your boss can do: 1) She can go to Talk:Donor Sibling Registry and click the "+" or "New section" link at the top of the page (whether it appears as "+" or "New section" depends on browser and/or skin settings), then type her request there; 2) She can visit the Help desk and ask for help there; 3) She can create an account and place a {{helpme}} tag on her user talk page accompanied with a request for help. #2 and #3 are likely to get you faster responses. I hope that helps. By the way editing this section of my talk page is the correct way to continue a discussion. If another user comes by and starts a new discussion below this one and you still have something to contribute to this discussion, then edit this section and add your comment at the bottom of it. Note that you are not allowed to edit anyone else's comments. Again I hope that helps. Cheers, —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:12, 25 April 2013 (UTC) Fantastic. You have been very helpful! I also just found the page that gives tips for how to avoid conflict of interest, and sent that link to my boss. Much appreciation. Alexis Tabasco cat (talk) 20:10, 25 April 2013 (UTC) K - Thanks for handling things. I'm obviously not very active in the project any more. - UtherSRG (talk) 19:41, 29 April 2013 (UTC) Edit request on Troy High page I just wanted to thank you for removing not only my name, but my coworkers names as well. The last two interviews I have been in, regarding teaching positions, the wikipedia page comments have been brought into question. Truth is, there were never any "taped conversations" or racial slurs used, it was a feble attempt by a scorned coworker to receive a "payday" from the district. This man is Jamaican born, 54 year old with tattoos on his face, and calls himself "money" because he has dollar signs in his gold teeth, go figure... This was not the first time this man they call "money", had sued a major entity claiming racism. In fact, he did it to another district in the late 90's as well as filed against Disneyland because according to "money", "Disneyland is full of racists because I went to return a shirt I bought in the park and they wouldn't allow me to." I replied, "Newton (his legal name) don't you see on the receipt that it says ALL SALES ARE FINAL"?? Money then replied, "If I was white, they would've let me return it"....that is just a small glimpse into what type of man this guy who made these outrageous claims at Troy really is. He is now working at Sunny Hills High School, in the same district. I filed a lawsuit in 2010 and FJUHSD settled out of court. Besides getting a settlement check, they also agreed to clear my name of any wrong doing. My family and I are relieved this incident is behind us, and super excited to know that it has been removed from Wikipedia. Thanks again. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Genorose (talk • contribs) 01:41, 1 May 2013 (UTC) Hello again. Please note that I did not take the action I took to protect or vindicate you or anyone else. I only did it to comply with Wikipedia policy, specifically that pertaining to information on living persons. I cannot prevent any editor from re-adding the information, and as I said on the article's talk page I will not object to a mention of the case under the conditions I set forth there. But if I do see any names of specific individuals involved in this case I will do my best to remove them as soon as I see them. Best regards, —KuyaBriBriTalk 04:27, 1 May 2013 (UTC) not Josephus, but Herod the Great Hello again, KuyaBriBri. I feel like a total moron, but I asked you to put the wrong article in the queue for me at MadmanBot/manual. It should have been Herod the Great instead of Josephus. Could you do me a second favor? I promise I won't bother you again. Thanks, in advance, for your help. --108.45.72.196 (talk) 00:33, 18 May 2013 (UTC) ِAbout my page (No To Compulsory Military Service movement) Hello, I would like to know why you want to delete No To Compulsory Military Service movement it's my page and I tired to write all the information in this page so I want to know why you nominated it to delete. If you see anything wrong in this page just edit it and delete everything you see it wrong because I can't understand your reasons about delete my page. Thank you Naderwagdy1 (talk) 5:50, 24 May 2013 (UTC) The reasons the article is nominated for deletion are outlined in both the red banner at the top of the article as well as Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/No to Compulsory Military Service movement. —KuyaBriBriTalk 15:58, 24 May 2013 (UTC) Posted by anonymous user 188.115.241.78 Why you cancel my edits? What's the problem?--188.115.241.78 (talk) 19:02, 24 May 2013 (UTC) I have responded on your talk page only because I was in the process of typing up that message when you left the one above. —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:05, 24 May 2013 (UTC) OK, i want to nominate that article. How to do it right? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.115.241.78 (talk) 19:07, 24 May 2013 (UTC) Go over the deletion policy and provide an argument that has some more substance. Simply saying "she fails WP:NMUSIC" is likely to fail given how recently the article was kept after being nominated for deletion under that rationale. —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:12, 24 May 2013 (UTC) Posted by anonymous user 58.165.216.82 My main source for the Banjo Paterson article is Trove, the National Library of Australia's electronic newspapers. 58.165.216.82 (talk) 08:04, 25 May 2013 (UTC) Nomination of Amy's Baking Company (Kitchen Nightmares) for deletion A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Amy's Baking Company (Kitchen Nightmares) is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

Thanks for responding to my attempt to delete the above-mentioned article for deletion. I would like to apply for deletion but find it seemingly impossible to do so. I created the article and would like to delete it under the advice of the living person portrayed for the inaccuracy of the facts portrayed. I believe, the article is also poorly sourced. I have tried to apply for speedy deletion which was rejected. Your advice and assistance would be much appreciated. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 119.56.115.43 (talk) 09:01, 1 June 2013 (UTC) Wikipedia does allow for the creator of an article to request its deletion if and only if no other editor has made substantive edits to the article. In the case of this article, it appears that at least one other editor has made a substantive edit, so the article cannot be deleted under that policy. If a person wishes for an article on him/herself to be deleted, s/he should contact the Wikimedia Foundation from a verifiable email address. Contact information is available at this page. Please note that articles will only be deleted after community discussion in accordance with the deletion policy, though in some cases the community may be inclined to take the subject's wishes into consideration. Also note that inaccuracies in an article are grounds for improving it, not deleting it. —KuyaBriBriTalk 14:18, 3 June 2013 (UTC) Help with AFD Kindly close down the AFD on following pages as well both are started by me.
