Your request to be unblocked has been granted for the following reason(s):

Based on your edit history, I don't see any reason for a block, especially considering the lack of any warnings here. Your edits were reasonable, and if you did anything unreasonable you should have been warned first, not bitten. This is certainly not the editing pattern of a disruptive single purpose account and there's no evidence of sockpuppetry or meatpuppetry.

Concepts in Clinical Pharmacokinetics

A tag has been placed on Concepts in Clinical Pharmacokinetics, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article seems to be blatant advertising that only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become an encyclopedia article.

If you can indicate why the subject of this article is not blatant advertising, you may contest the tagging. To do this, please add {{hangon}} on the top of Concepts in Clinical Pharmacokinetics and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would help make it encyclopedic, as well as adding any citations from independent reliable sources to ensure that the article will be verifiable.

advice

edit

As reviewing administrator, I removed the tag. Now please add the necessary information for a journal article: Impact factor if viable, indexes that cover it, how long its been published, who ll the editors in chief have been since the beginning,a nd anything else you have to show how important it is,. including especially 3rd party independent reliable published sources, print or online (but not blogs or press releases, or material based on press releases). I am not totally sure it will hold up as important, but get the information in. You might want to see Wikipedia:WikiProject Academic Journals for suggestions. I'd advise you to add this very quickly, before it gets nominated for regular deletion.

As for Dipiro, find his 3 or 4 most cited papers and list them. Use scopus or web of science if possible, not google scholar. Put in proper references to his books, including publisher & year. Find published reviews of them & add them as references. He should be able to meet WP:PROF, but get the supporting information into the article.

In general, when you write a Wikipedia article, make sure the first version is already fairly well supported by evidence. See our guide to writing Wikipedia articles.DGG (talk) 19:53, 21 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

A tag has been placed on The American Journal of Pharmaceutical Education 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.

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 verify that externally by one of the processes explained at Wikipedia:Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Wikipedia:Requesting copyright permission. 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 that has been nominated for deletion (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 page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

It might be helpful to create an article first as a subpage in your userspace and work on it there until you are ready to take it "live". For instance, User:JeanandJane/Lucinda L.

I should ask you why you keep tagging articles which are obviously notable like this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_W._Gottschalk

The latest one is based on the Harvard archives and it is about a researher with awards and publications. Dont you think that the Harvard website is a reliable source ?--JeanandJane (talk) 14:57, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

I do, but I don't see what in that reliable source makes him more notable than any other doctor. Now that someone who wasn't you edited the first article, it's clear why he's notable. Perhaps you could spend more time on each article, describing what makes the doctor notable, rather than bounce from doctor to doctor to doctor. Hipocrite (talk) 15:01, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply


If you read the article, and the original source I provided immediately in every article, notability is established automatically.

Awards, prizes with their names, praise from reliable sources, chief editors in prestigious journals and more. Therefore adding the notability tag is kind of funny. Request for deletion based on this does not make sense. You could tag it for extention, more references etc...... --JeanandJane (talk) 15:11, 6 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of National Board of Medical Examiners

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article National Board of Medical Examiners, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:

Article does not claim or establish notability.

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.

how to call papers

edit

I usually name all papers by author and year, and sometimes also the books. For newspaper/magazine articles I use only the publication name and, if it can be confused with other articles in the same newspaper, sometimes also the year or the author.

So, for the cochrane review, I always refer to it as Vickers 2006, and I link to here because from there you can navigate to this page listing all the past versions of the paper, which will also include the future versions. They also update the current state of the papers, which is why the 2009 paper is (apparently temporaly) withdrawn from publication. --Enric Naval (talk) 14:56, 27 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Year linking

edit

Are you aware that MOS:UNLINKYEARS says "Year articles (1795, 1955, 2007) should not be linked unless they contain information that is germane and topical to the subject matter—that is, the events in the year article should share an important connection other than merely that they occurred in the same year"? Dougweller (talk) 05:50, 6 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Repression eased, and the anonymous publication of Vestiges of Creation in 1844 aroused wide public interest with support from Quakers and Unitarians, but was strongly criticised by the scientific community, which emphasized the need for solidly backed science. Isn't this one of the cases ? --JeanandJane (talk) 06:12, 6 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Overlinking

edit

It may not always be a good idea to add links to an article. My own view is that links should be added only when they add something to the topic of the article: too many links are distracting and make finding useful links harder. Please see WP:OVERLINKING and WP:UNLINKDATES. For example, in National Board of Medical Examiners, this edit linked "1915" in "The National Board of Medical Examiners (NBME), founded in 1915...", and linked "World War II" in "The board rose in prominence in the years after World War II". On the principle that readers will not find anything useful with respect to the NBME in those links, I have removed them (and several others in other articles).

Discretionary sanctions

edit

In light of recent events at the homeopathy page, it's probably worth making sure that you are formally aware of the discretionary sanctions in place on homeopathy-related topics on Wikipedia. Because of prior abuses and poor behavior surrounding the topic, the Arbitration Committee has stipulated that any uninvolved administrator may, on his or her own discretion, impose sanctions on any editor working in the area of conflict (defined as articles which relate to homeopathy, broadly interpreted) if, despite being warned, that editor repeatedly or seriously fails to adhere to the purpose of Wikipedia, any expected standards of behavior, or any normal editorial process. The full text of the sanction can be found here.

This is not to imply that I, or anyone else, is currently considered sanctions against you. It's a general request to review the discretionary sanctions and make an extra effort to ensure that your behavior complies with Wikipedia's behavioral and content guidelines. That sort of effort is essential on a topic as prone to controversy as homeopathy on Wikipedia. Please let me know of any questions or concerns, and happy editing.
