Word origins on disambiguation pages

Hello Epastore, Your addition to Matrix regarding the word derivations was very informative, however, since Matrix is a disambiguation page, it does not belong there, and I wanted to let you know why I removed it. Disambiguation pages are used to direct people to different articles when there are multiple uses for a word. Except in rare cases, only the links to the different articles are included. The Manual of style for disambiguation pages dicates the style of disambiguation pages. While your word origin information was certainly informative, it is along the lines of something that would belong in a dictionary, and remember, Wikipedia is not a dictionary. However, consider adding your information to Wiktionary, where I am sure it would be most welcome. -- Nataly a 19:30, 5 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Infobox Pseudoscience

Thank you for your efforts with Template:Infobox Pseudoscience. However, some of the formatting you tidied up was deliberate (lists didn't display correctly otherwise). I've restored the parts that were needed, while keeping the other parts that you'd changed that didn't interfere with rendering of the infobox. Further information is at Template talk:Infobox Pseudoscience.

Happy editing! --Christopher Thomas 20:30, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Milk - emulsion or colloid

I'd like to discuss your edit changing the classification of milk to a sol colloid from an emulsion. Milk fat is a solid or a liquid, depending on the temperature. At the body temperature of a cow, milk fat is probably a liquid, or at least somewhere inbetween a liquid and a solid. Try leaving butter in your cupboard during a summer heat-wave! It is more solid at room and refridgerated temperatures. Not sure if this qualifies it as a sol colloid or not, but I don't believe the definition of an emulsion is contingent on it's physical state (e.g. liquid). Perhaps it fits both classifications, there is no reason that it couldn't, but it would depend on the temperature! Maybe the article should be written to reflect this, but some citations are necessary to back this up. I'm sure few people would disagree on the status of milk as an emulsion, and it is also a colloid. Here are some references in support of the definition of milk as an emulsion:

http://www.foodsci.uoguelph.ca/dairyedu/chem.html#lipids1

http://animsci.agrenv.mcgill.ca/courses/450/topics/2.html

I am changing it back to being called an emulsion, but adding that it can also be referred to as a colloid. If you want to add the sol definition, perhaps we need a little more than the sol colloid stub with no references to back this up.

Cheers, Halogenated (talk) 02:08, 6 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That works for me... I just wanted to resolve the difference in articles. I've updated Colloid to match. — Epastore (talk) 02:27, 7 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Boy, it would have been nice if some of this discussion had been placed in the colloid page. I just editted it back to sol, and now find this discussion here. Sigh. The discussion of butter is interesting, because of course the colloid page is quite comfortable calling it a gel, despite it being an emulsion at the same temperatures at which milk is an emulsion.

Perhaps the wise thing is to remove dairy products from the illustrative table; surely the table is meant to inform and not to include confusing edge cases. - 63.107.91.99 (talk) 19:36, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion of American Society of Consultant Pharmacists Foundation

A tag has been placed on American Society of Consultant Pharmacists Foundation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted text or images borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. You may use external websites as a source of information, but not as a source of sentences. This part is crucial: say it in your own words.

If the external website belongs to you, and you want to allow Wikipedia to use the text — which means allowing other people to modify it — then you must include on the external site the statement "I, (name), am the author of this article, (article name), and I release its content under the terms of the GNU Free Documentation License, Version 1.2 and later." You might want to look at Wikipedia's policies and guidelines for more details, or ask a question here.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Fair use rationale for Image:R. Tim Webster.png

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:R. Tim Webster.png. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. NOTE: once you correct this, please remove the tag from the image's page.

Proposed deletion of Adriel Hampton

All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Speedy deletion nomination of ExploreLearning

A tag has been placed on ExploreLearning requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for organizations and companies. You may also wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

February 2019

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Moringa oleifera, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. We don't cite in vitro research to support medical content. Please review WP:MEDHOW. Zefr (talk) 19:57, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Zefr: I don't understand why this message applies. I am using the already-cited secondary source which thoroughly cites primary sources in its summary. Granted, it should be re-written a little; but the article should not be reverted. The old version is patently false, as it uses 2014-2015 articles to claim that there is no research. That is no longer true in 2019. —Epastore (talk) 22:03, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

You said: "In vitro and animal studies indicate that the leaf, seed, and root extracts of moringa oleifera have anticancer, hepatoprotective, hypoglycemic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral, and antisickling effects. They may also protect against Alzheimer’s disease and stomach ulcers, help lower cholesterol levels, promote wound healing, and alleviate symptoms of ulcerative colitis." This statement is promotional spam, going from primary lab findings to suggesting moringa has a wide range of clinical effects, none of which comes close to being proven. WP:MEDRS requires high-quality reviews, which are not available. The MSKCC source, "For Healthcare Professions", says: "Clinical data are limited, but preliminary findings show that MO exerts a small positive effect on lipid profiles. An MO leaf powder increased insulin secretion in healthy subjects, and improved nutritional status and intake of AIDS patients undergoing antiretroviral therapy." All of this is preliminary, non-MEDRS material, and has no place in the article. Bottom line: there should be no inference of positive effect of moringa, and the MSKCC source is only usable for sourcing potential adverse effects. --Zefr (talk) 23:33, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Zefr: Ah, gotchya. Okay; I accept the revert, but am changing the wording I originally had an issue with. Inefficacy can be over-claimed as much as can efficacy. —Epastore (talk) 23:45, 21 February 2019 (UTC)[reply]

February 2021

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Rolfing; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. Users are expected to collaborate with others, to avoid editing disruptively, and to try to reach a consensus, rather than repeatedly undoing other users' edits once it is known that there is a disagreement.

Points to note:

Edit warring is disruptive regardless of how many reverts you have made;
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes and work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If you engage in an edit war, you may be blocked from editing. Alexbrn (talk) 19:54, 16 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
