Edit on Psychedelics, dissociatives and deliriants
[edit]The article is called Psychedelics, dissociatives and deliriants, formerly known as Hallucinogens. The introductary paragraph is about that group of drugs (hallucinogens, not specifically psychedelics) as a whole, mentions the three subgroups (psychedelics, dissociatives and deliriants), and then the article describes each subgroup in more detail, with links to entire articles on each specific subgroup... psychedelics, dissociatives and deliriants. Sorry if I sounded like a sarcastic ass ;) --Thoric 01:50, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
- I see. Thanks for correcting me then.--Neur0X .talk 05:45, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

edibility of muscaria
[edit]Hi, I think it is inappropriate to call A muscaria inedible, rather than poisonous, there is after all, a whole section of the article on its toxicology. A woody polypore is inedible, but a mushroom that causes vomiting and sweats is pretty much poisonous. Provided you agree, I'll change the categorization back. Debivort 02:38, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- Yes, I was a little skeptical about changing it at first but it only really causes such symptoms in moderate doses, whereas small doses only produce nausea and the like, and those effects are even moreso eliminated if it is prepared correctly and cooked. But, if you think I am in err, be my guest and change it i have no objections. Sorry for the trouble caused. --Neur0X .talk 04:13, 6 July 2006 (UTC)
- No trouble at all, but it just seems any mushroom that causes nausea in any dose should be considered poisonous, not deadly necessarily, but poisonous. Debivort 05:17, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

Editing Jacob's Ladder (film)
[edit]I'm sorry, but they do say, in the end of the movie, that 'The Ladder' was in fact BZ, and BZ is in fact 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate, so, im reverting some of your edits. Quoted from the movie:
It was reported that the hallucinogenic BZ was used in experiments on soldiers during the Vietnam war. The Pentagon denied the story.
Oh. and if the drug was entirely fictional they wouldn't have mentioned that in the end of the movie. --Neur0X .talk 23:57, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
- But the quote you give does not state explicitly that 'The Ladder' (fictional) was in fact BZ (real). The 3-quinuclidinyl benzilate article also notes that "the film does not discuss BZ specifically".
- It's arguable, I suppose, that the makers are implying that 'The Ladder' = BZ. In which case, they're either ignorant of the effects of BZ or are deliberately misrepresenting them. However, I see no strong reason to assume such a literal interpretation. It seems much more reasonable to assume that the mention of BZ at the end of the film is to show that the idea of experimental drugs being tested on Vietnam soldiers was not entirely fictional, even if the specific drug in the film was.
- Besides, the fact they don't mention BZ by name anywhere else suggests to me that the ladder is not specifically BZ. It's the actual testing of experimental drugs on soldiers that crosses the fact-fiction boundary, not the specific drug.
- Unless you can find better evidence for 'The Ladder'=BZ, then I think 'inaccurate' is the wrong word for the Jacob's Ladder article. garik 00:54, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
Link removal
[edit]I appreciate your referencing your action[1] removing the link to the news page as well as to Alcohol and Drugs History Society. I do believe you may have come to an erroneous conclusion though about the nature of this site and the organization. I will not ponder the issue further though. __meco 09:04, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

Silent Hill taskforce
[edit]Hi, are you still up for the Silent Hill task force? Marasmusine 17:28, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, I replied on the talk page of the VG wikiproject under the task force post. --Neur0tikX .talk 14:39, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit]I removed the fair use image from the Silent Hill Task Force userbox, but I'm afraid to say I didn't have a good idea of a replacement. All I could think of in a short peiod of time was this, which I expect you'll want to change as soon as possible. --Lenin and McCarthy | (Complain here) 05:27, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
- Thanks, I noticed the change when it happened, right now I'm working on getting up an image that can be used. Thanks again for the change, especially for taking the time to let me know as well as put up a sufficient temporary image, much appreciated.≈Neur0X→∞← 05:44, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

WikiProject Pharmacology is currently organizing a new Collaboration of the Week program, designed to bring drug and medication related articles up to featured status. We're currently soliciting nominations and/or voting on nominations for the first WP:RxCOTW, to begin on September 5, 2007. Please stop by the Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week page to participate! Thanks! Dr. Cash 17:52, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
Aspirin has been selected as this week's Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week! Please help us bring this article up to featured standards during the week. The goal is to nominate this at WP:FAC on September 10, 2007.
Also, please visitWP:RxCOTW to support other articles for the next COTW. Articles that have been nominated thus far include Doxorubicin, Paracetamol (in the lead with 4 support votes so far), Muscle relaxant, Ethanol, and Bufotenin.
In other news:
- Bupropion has been promoted to featured status on August 31, 2007.
- The Wikipedia:WikiProject Pharmacology main page has been updated and overhauled, to make it easier to find things, as well as to highlight other goals and announcements for the project.
- Garrondo is asking for individuals to help review Therapies for multiple sclerosis, as he is considering nominating this article for GA status.
- Fvasconcellos notes that discussion is ongoing regarding the current wording of MEDMOS on including dosage information in drug articles. All input is welcome.

Here's a brief update in some of the recent developments of WikiProject Pharmacology!
- Aspirin has just completed its two week run as the first Collaboration of the Week! Many thanks to those editors that contributed; the article got a lot of good work accomplished, and in particular, much work was done in fixing up the history section. It's still not quite "done" yet (is a wikipedia article really ever done?), but after two weeks I think it's more important to push onwards with the development of the new collaboration of the week program. I will be fixing up Aspirin in the next few days and possibly nominating it for either GA or FA status.
- Muscle relaxant has been selected as the new Collaboration of the week until October 2, 2007! This article is currently rated as a "stub", so it's got quite a bit of work cut out for collaborators! Admittedly, featured status could be a long way off,... but still attainable! At the least, maybe we could at least get it up to meeting the Good article criteria? Please stop by the article and help improve it.
- Resveratrol, having recently achieved GA status on August 16, 2007, is now making a run for featured status. This is quite a fascinating compound. If you can, please stop by its discussion page and leave comments in support of it.
- Please remember that Wikipedia is not a forum for discussing or dispensing medical advice amongst users. Specifically, talk pages of articles should only be used to discuss improving the actual article in question. To help alleviate this situation, the template {{talkheader}} may be added to the top of talk pages, reminding users of the purpose of such pages. Additionally, unsigned comments and comments by anonymous users that are inappropriate may be removed from talk pages without being considered vandalism.
- There was an interesting article on ZDNet last week about Hewlett Packard licensing its patented microneedle technology used in common inkjet printers to be used in transdermal patches to deliver a time-controlled release of drugs to patients. This information could be added to articles such as route of administration or drug delivery.

Here are a few updates in the realm of WikiProject Pharmacology:
- The Pharmacology Collaboration of the Week has been changed to Collaboration of the Month, based on current participation levels. It is also more likely that articles collaborated on for one month are more likely to achieve featured quality than articles worked on for only a week or two.
- The current Collaboration of the Month for November is Receptor antagonist. Please take a look at that article and contribute to it if you get a chance. Ideally, the article should adhere to the featured article criteria.
- Therapies for multiple sclerosis is currently a featured article candidate. If you are familiar with the featured article criteria, please visit WP:FAC and review the article.
- Anabolic steroid is the wikiproject's newest Featured Article, having been promoted on October 8, 2007.
- Theobromine was delisted as a Good Article. The Peer review and GA reassessment discussions provide suggestions on improvement. Muscle relaxant was recently reviewed for Good Article status, but not promoted. Please see the full review full review here for details.
