Adolor Corporation

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Adolor Corporation, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. 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. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. 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. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Adolor Corporation.

Create a list of pharmaceutical suffixes?

Hi, I noticed that you created a list of pharmaceutical prefixes. I found it while I was looking for a list of pharmaceutical suffixes and I was wondering if you would have any interest in creating such a list. Near as I can tell, Wikipedia does not yet have one and it seems that it would be a beneficial thing for it to have. For example, drugs ending in -mab are based upon monoclonal antibody technology. I want to know what the -imus endings on alot of drugs mean or -nib on other ones and Google is disappointing me so far. I thought you might have some insight into this. Thanks! 208.125.237.242 (talk) 14:46, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Lobster reply: Sorry I didn't get to read this sooner. But I don't think I have figured out the drug name suffixes. Lobster (talk) 06:40, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of AmpliChip

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on AmpliChip, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which articles can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:

• It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and Wikipedia:FAQ/Business for more information.
• It appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), individual animal, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. (See section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here. KJ ^{click here} 16:44, 4 February 2014 (UTC)
