Piped links
editI noticed that you were trying to create a link from the word 'hypoxic' to the term 'hypoxia' in the article on experimental cancer treatment. The way to do that in Wiki markup is by using a piped link.
Briefly, a piped link takes the form of [[destination|text]], where destination is the target article and text is the text that appears in the link. To link the word 'hypoxic' to the article hypoxia, use the code [[hypoxia|hypoxic]], which appears as hypoxic.

Radiotherapy Implications
editThis is getting better but I think that the heading of "Implications" is not the best. Also:
- the point on prostate cancer, whilst true, has little to do with radiotherapy per se.
- the point about radioresistance of brain tumours is correct. But other tumours, notably renal cell and malignant melanoma are also notably radioresistant despite sometimes rapid doubling times and metastatic potential. These may be better examples of anomolously radioresistant cancers.Jellytussle 01:03, 5 January 2006 (UTC)
- No problems at all with your edits. This paragraph has needed work for months and I welcome your input. Been meaning to change title etc for some time but not got round to it. Jellytussle 22:12, 7 January 2006 (UTC)
