Speedy deletion nomination of American Respiratory Care Foundation

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 American Respiratory Care Foundation requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, 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. Under 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 that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, 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. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Vanadus (talk | contribs) 03:37, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

The article American Respiratory Care Foundation has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Unremarkable organization. No evidence of notability.

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist.

Non-free rationale for File:Driscoll Children's Hospital Logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Driscoll Children's Hospital Logo.gif. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

File permission problem with File:Driscoll Children's Hospital campus.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Driscoll Children's Hospital campus.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

If you created this media entirely yourself but have previously published it elsewhere (especially online), please either

• make a note permitting reuse under the CC-BY-SA or another acceptable free license (see this list) at the site of the original publication; or
• Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to permissions-enwikimedia.org, stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add {{OTRS pending}} to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to permissions-enwikimedia.org.

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:File copyright tags#Fair use, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included. See Wikipedia:File copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have provided evidence that their copyright owners have agreed to license their works under the tags you supplied, too. You can find a list of files you have created in your upload log. Files lacking evidence of permission may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. You may wish to read the Wikipedia's image use policy. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 21:46, 26 October 2011 (UTC)

If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted.

Respiratory Care (journal)

Hi, I'm wondering about the section entitled "original research" that you added to this article. Are these the only two original research papers ever to be published in this journal? If so, that would be weird enough to be explained. If not, why were these two selected? Any specific reasons? --Guillaume233 (talk) 08:44, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

lol, no they aren't the only - I was wondering if it was worth listing all of the research they've done or of that might turn into a too-extensive list for a main article so I only posted two for now. What do you think? Pulmonological (talk) 12:59, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

• I think you should either post none, or use an objective criterion (such as the three most cited articles). Otherwise this kind of lists becomes a bit capricious. I would take out the "year subheaders" and re-title the section ("most-cited articles" or "notable articles"). --Guillaume233 (talk) 13:39, 29 November 2011 (UTC)

Simple pneumothorax

Simple pneumothraces are when the pleural pressure in the hemithorax remains sub-atmospheric and is slightly more positive than the pleural pressure in the contralateral-hemithorax. A simple pnemothorax is typically not dangerous unless in a person receiving mechanical ventilation or has diminished respiratory reserve.

Open pneumothorax

Open pneumothoraces occur when there is trauma to the chest wall causing a point of entry into the thorax. This is called a “sucking wound” or “sucking chest-wound” because of its sucking effect through the thorax during inspiration. During expiration the air exists the pleural space through the point of entry.

Pneumothorax ex vacuo

Pneumothorax ex vacuo is an uncommon type of pneumothorax that forms near an atelectatic lung segment or lobe.

Bilateral post-operative pneumothorax

Also called “buffalo chest”

Single sentence section are also frowned upon at FAC.Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 07:19, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

No worries. This article is currently going through WP:FAC. Everything added needs to be based on a review article, major textbook or international position paper per WP:MEDRS. I think everything except the history section fits this currently. The lead does not need to be supported by refs as it is supported by the body of the text.

Speedy deletion nomination of Mechanical ventilation in neonates

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 Mechanical ventilation in neonates 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 clear 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. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

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 the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay.

This will allow you to make your case on the page's talk page. Administrators will consider your reasoning before deciding what to do with the page. Thank you.

Unnecessary Title

Dear Pulmonological, I really do not think saying Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine is an unnecessary title when this is commonly what they are called, frankly, they are called this more often than osteopathic physicians in the real world. It makes perfect sense in the way that individuals who have earned the Doctor of Medicine (M.D.) degree are often called Medical Doctors. I realize that my firsthand knowledge and experience with Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine is only anecdotal evidence but I assure you that many places including academic literature, the American Osteopathic Association, and other encyclopedia entries use the title Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine interchangeably with osteopathic physician. The title I used also draws a starker contrast to the term "osteopath" which, as the article discusses, is frequently a source of confusion for many people trying to distinguish Doctors of Osteopathic Medicine from non-U.S. osteopaths. I hope this clarifies why I put that title there. If you still do not agree with this edit, I strongly encourage you to have a discussion with me before reverting my edit since this a courteous thing to do on wikipedia.

Gas exchange

Hi Pulmonological, Could you take a look at Gas exchange, It has been edited a large number of times since your last visit, and the combination of vandalism and well meaning but poorly applied reversion and a few other edits of variable quality have degraded the text somewhat. I have tried to restore some but find I cant work out what it should be, as I am not expert in the field. Peter (Southwood) ^(talk): 07:23, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

I notice that in your cleanup you have deleted the portal link to Underwater diving, the Diving medicine, physiology and physics navbox, and the category underwater diving as well as some text on gas exchange relating to hyperbaric exposure. Gas exchange is within the scope of diving physiology and medicine, possibly one of the most important aspects, and I see no reason why those items should be deleted. Perhaps you could explain?

Edit warring

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. Yobol (talk) 17:36, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for June 12

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Poractant alfa, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Respiratory distress syndrome (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Questionable reference - Scope of Practice

In your [1] edit of Scope of Practice - Definition you used a reference "Defining Nurse Practitioner Scope of Practice: Expanding Primary Care Services", The Internet Journal of Advanced Nursing Practice, 1(20), 1997. (ISSN 1523-6064), contained in the previous version that (1) has a broken link, and (2) when the reference is chased down, e.g., at [2], does not contain or refer to any of the material in this section that is allegedly based upon this reference.

Was this intentional or an error? Thanks, g_a_adams (talk) 20:01, 9 April 2014 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Constitution of the State of Tennessee.pdf

A tag has been placed on File:Constitution of the State of Tennessee.pdf requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F10 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a file that is not an image, sound file or video clip (e.g. a Word document or PDF file) that has no encyclopedic use.

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 "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.

Proposed deletion of List of asthma camps in the United States

The article List of asthma camps in the United States has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Asthma camp is a notable subject. The individual camps, not so much (they are all redlinks for a reason).

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
