Hi there

Welcome. I noticed a few of your edits. While some have been helpful, you might have been breaking things inadvertently with others. Do tread lightly, and check with the people who maintain them if you're not sure. Thanks. --Rifleman 82 (talk) 09:27, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Sorry about that! I see what I've done: deleting the colon before "Category" in ":Category:Chemistry navigation templates" made "Navigation templates" disappear altogether. Whoops. My true intention was simply to expand the abbreviations, so they were more easily understood. Could this still be done?Scientific29 (talk) 16:49, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

your request
I study microbiology and have for 30 years. I maintain my own laminar flow hood, and do micro stem cel orchid propagation, in vitro. What more does listing that, on my bio page require? At some point I will publish my Macro photographic studies but surly I qualify to list myself as what I am, not what you perceive me to be. PLease correct me if I am wrong --WPPilot 22:56, 19 September 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by WPPilot (talk • contribs)

Huh?
I am trying to understand your moves - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Bauxite_mining_in_Australia - why cannot you leave it alone? - surely there is nothing wrong with specifically identifying bauxite mining and also have aluminium companies - as well? - they can in a sense be separate items without causing a problem SatuSuro 02:35, 24 September 2010 (UTC)

With such a massive range of changes and moves - I think it would be polite if you could explain what you are up to somewhere - the mining project talk page, or the australian notioceboard - something that explains what you are up to - as your edit summaries hardly let on what your overall intent is SatuSuro 02:38, 24 September 2010 (UTC)


 * wow thank you for your careful explanation of what happened - and why and how - good stuff! chivalry aint dead yet! I appreciate the WP:AGF and explanation - I'll look at it all again soon = cheers SatuSuro 05:24, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Wanna barnstar?
Please join! Good morning! As we approach the launch date of the October Wikification Drive, we are seeking to recruit users who are dedicated to improving the encyclopedia.

Mythtakes
The following code:

Mythology Mythologist Mythbusters mythological Mythanthrope Mythdirection Mythletoe

highlights the wikilinks as the full words as below:

Mythology Mythologist Mythbusters mythological Mythanthrope Mythdirection Mythletoe

making you beleve that clicking on the mythological link will take you to the mythological page, wheras it takes you to the myth page. Try the following example:


 * Spanish
 * Italian
 * Portugese
 * then click these:


 * Spanish
 * Italian
 * Portugese

they look the same on a wiki page, but the coding is different:


 * Spanish
 * Italian
 * Portugese
 * then click these:


 * Spanish
 * Italian
 * Portugese

Hope that helps. If you need any more clarification, please contact me.Angry Mustelid (talk) 02:05, 13 January 2011 (UTC)


 * In the coding it doesn't come out until it is compiled so it can show on a wikipage (like mine)
 * It would... but I have to apologise for the confusion; I invented the term "mythtake" having discovered it with the myth prefix just while trying to learn a bit more about wikicoding. I plucked it out of the air while trying to explain it in a simple prefix (I may have been watching Mythbusters (or is that Mythbusters) at the time). It seemed apt. Had I been watching Scrubs, you might have ended up with the porn Scrubbers ( click the links - they take you to the same place. ).Angry Mustelid (talk) 05:24, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

I don't think that there should be an article about it; all I mean to do is to point out an error in the wikicode that needs addressing by someone who can do something about it. Until then, all it is, is a fun quirk of Wikipedia that I just happened to stumble across. To be clear it is a glitch in the wikicode and should be fixed. (once it is can you please let me know so I can remove the "fun facts" kinda thing from my wikipage). Thank you and please let me know if I can help in any way. Angry Mustelid (talk) 22:29, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

As far as I was aware there wasn't, and shouldn't have been a disambiguation page. It's probably been created by a bot but I was not aware of it. Delete it and any refs, please. If it will help, I can comment out the Mythatkes. If I can do any more then please ask. Cheers buddy.Angry Mustelid (talk) 23:16, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

Now I get you... Thank you. It's has been removed. If you ever need anything else then please ask.Angry Mustelid (talk) 23:25, 13 January 2011 (UTC)

DNA Replication
Thanks for your work on this article! I had meant to get around to revising this article after I noticed that my reverting a (maybe?) vandal's edits didn't improve the article at all, but left the article making incorrect statements. Unfortunately, I've been too busy reorganizing and adding material to Quadratic equation to spend time on DNA replication.

Basically, the article makes a completely wrong statement when it says, "The leading strand is the template strand of the DNA double helix that is oriented so that the replication fork moves along it in a 5' to 3' manner" and it is just as confused where it discusses the lagging strand. The leading strand is NOT a template strand; rather, it is the dna strand that is synthesised continuously during replication, while the lagging strand is the dna strand that is synthesized discontinuously.

If you could re-write these erroneous sections, I'd much appreciate it!

Stigmatella aurantiaca (talk) 21:51, 21 April 2013 (UTC)


 * I finally got around to working on this article to correct the major errors that it made in describing leading and lagging strands. I also have done a bit of copyediting and addition of new material. Could you check over my work and suggest where I should focus on for further improvements? Thanks! Stigmatella aurantiaca (talk) 17:16, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey Stigmatella, I never got around to making any changes but I'd be happy to work on it now. I've made some small restructurings to the lead section and initiation section, but here are my other thoughts. I don't feel like I have the knowledge to implement them:
 * I think the DNA replication proteins section should be eliminated and the different enzymes mentioned when they are used in the process.
 * The lead of the "Replication process" section says it occurs in three steps: "initiation, elongation and termination." The subsections should reflect this structure, imo.
 * The "replication fork" section should be merged with "Extension"; parts are duplicated at the moment.
 * Those are my thoughts and I can work to implement them somewhat, but don't have the depth of knowledge for some of it. Cheers! Scientific29 (talk) 17:46, 23 June 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks for your rewordings. People like myself who know a bit about this subject tend to get all verbose and jargony. It was a bit of a shock to see how you changed some of the wording, but it was a GOOD shock! :-)
 * I had misgivings about the DNA replication proteins section myself. Maybe it should be replaced with a section detailing the concept of the replisome. The individual proteins are already, for the most part, treated separately in the different sections.
 * Also you're right about the duplication of topics. I'll see what I can do. Stigmatella aurantiaca (talk) 17:56, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
