ISCB Wikipedia Competition 2018: entries open!

The article 10x Genomics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

No indication of notability, largely unreferenced. Sources that discuss the company are of dubious quality and largely by a single author. Does not meet WP:CORPDEPTH. Nothing better found via Google News.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Huon (talk) 01:44, 21 February 2018 (UTC)

Nomination of 10x Genomics for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article 10x Genomics is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/10x Genomics until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article. Huon (talk) 21:55, 22 February 2018 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:RECOMB 2015 Logo.jpg

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:RECOMB 2015 Logo.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. ShakespeareFan00 (talk) 10:03, 29 March 2018 (UTC)

ISCB Wikipedia competition 2018

Hi Alastair! How are you?

I am writing this message because we are going to remove our entry pt:Sequenciamento de DNA from the competition. Our decision takes into account the contribution of other users in the page, who are not part of our team. So, our planned contributions into this topic were covered by them. I hope it will not be a problem.

Another consideration is that one of our colleagues forgot to log in while editing Biostatistics. So the editions are attributed to some IPs (143.107.12.77, 189.41.1.246 and 179.220.96.45). We wrote this just to explain the situation.

Thanks for your attention! — Preceding unsigned comment added by CorrFH (talkcontribs) 23:25, 24 May 2018 (UTC)

@CorrFH: thanks for letting me know, that's no problem! I'll pass the info about the IP edits on to our judging panel. Cheers, Amkilpatrick (talk) 07:44, 25 May 2018 (UTC)

Your submission at Articles for creation: The Scotsman Steps has been accepted

The Scotsman Steps, which you submitted to Articles for creation, has been created.

Congratulations, and thank you for helping expand the scope of Wikipedia! We hope you will continue making quality contributions.

The article has been assessed as Start-Class, which is recorded on its talk page. Most new articles start out as Stub-Class or Start-Class and then attain higher grades as they develop over time. You may like to take a look at the grading scheme to see how you can improve the article.

Since you have made at least 10 edits over more than four days, you can now create articles yourself without posting a request. However, you may continue submitting work to Articles for creation if you prefer.

If you have any questions, you are welcome to ask at the help desk. Once you have made at least 10 edits and had an account for at least four days, you will have the option to create articles yourself without posting a request to Articles for creation.

DYK for Work No. 227: The lights going on and off

On 7 April 2021, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Work No. 227: The lights going on and off, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Martin Creed's installation Work No. 227: The lights going on and off (pictured) has been described as "the first truly great artwork of the twenty-first century"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Work No. 227: The lights going on and off. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Work No. 227: The lights going on and off), and if they received a combined total of at least 416.7 views per hour (i.e., 5,000 views in 12 hours or 10,000 in 24), the hook may be added to the statistics page. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

Backbone-dependent rotamer library

Hello,

Can you explain why you added these categories to the backbone-dependent rotamer library page?

" Assessment: Computational Biology (B/Low), Chemistry (B/Mid), Molecular Biology (B/Low), +banner shell, −Chemical and Bio Engineering, −Biophysics"

I'm not disagreeing with you but I don't know what these assessments mean, or on what basis or expertise they are made. --Math-ghamhainn (talk) 02:00, 1 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi @Math-ghamhainn:, sure, articles tagged as belonging to WikiProjects are usually rated for quality (based on Wikipedia's content assessment grades) and importance (based on a separate importance scale). These help WikiProjects quantify the quality of articles relating to that WikiProject and should help identify areas where work is needed most within that WikiProject. With this edit, I just filled in the ratings for the blank WikiProject banners (and removed two inactive WikiProject banners).
As for expertise, that's dependent on the editor. I'm a computational biologist rather than a chemist, but I expect someone with that expertise we will rerate for importance in that WikiProject if they feel it's needed.
FWIW I think this has the potential to become a Good Article or Featured Article, but these ratings are attained through a different, peer review like, process (see eg WP:GAN for the Good Article nominations process). Hope this helps, let me know if you've any further questions! Thanks, Amkilpatrick (talk) 07:20, 1 May 2021 (UTC)
