Disambiguation link notification for April 25
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Telomerase RNA component, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Template (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.

 * It may seem silly to reply to a bot, but I might as well justify myself. In edition Telomerase_RNA_component, I wanted a wikilink to the word template to clarify the meaning of that word in the context of the article (especially to readers for whom English is not the native language). Disambiguation pages often contain entries to Wikipedia pages that are specific to the meaning desired, but in this case the meaning desired was in the "Molecular genetics" section &mdash; which only contains links to DNA and RNA. Moreover, for reverse transcriptase, RNA is serving as a template for DNA, not for protein. But linking to the disambiguation page gives lots of relevant information that will make the concept of "template" clear enough to non-English speakers or children. --Ben Best 13:12, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Rejuvenation Research, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Biennial.

 * The link to Biennial was done consciously. That page is not simply a disambiguation page, because the definition given at the beginning (which is the reason I made the link) is not contained in any of the subsequent links on that page. --Ben Best 12:33, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

Copying within Wikipedia requires proper attribution
Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you copied or moved text from Senescence into Cellular senescence. While you are welcome to re-use Wikipedia's content, here or elsewhere, Wikipedia's licensing does require that you provide attribution to the original contributor(s). When copying within Wikipedia, this is supplied at minimum in an edit summary at the page into which you've copied content, disclosing the copying and linking to the copied page, e.g.,. It is good practice, especially if copying is extensive, to also place a properly formatted copied template on the talk pages of the source and destination. The attribution has been provided for this situation, but if you have copied material between pages before, even if it was a long time ago, please provide attribution for that duplication. You can read more about the procedure and the reasons at Copying within Wikipedia. Thank you. If you are the sole author of the prose that was moved, attribution is not required. — Diannaa 🍁 (talk) 15:02, 4 November 2016 (UTC)

extra sources
Hello, I removed an additional coindance source you added to the Bitcoin article. In general one source is enough. Sometimes two sources might be good in the case where content is controversial (meaning other editors suggest to delete it). But in general one is enough. There is an essay about this called WP:OVERKILL that also talks about too many sources. Mostly that overkill essay is about edit warring and I am not suggesting you were doing that. Just wanted to show you the essay in case you were curious. Happy editing :-) Jtbobwaysf (talk) 10:14, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Liberstad (Norway)


The article Liberstad (Norway) has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "Doesn't meet WP:GEOLAND; no legal recognition and no significant coverage."

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 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 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. power~enwiki ( π, ν ) 21:31, 6 November 2017 (UTC)

Unsourced content
Please stop adding unsourced promotional content hyping the Latest and Greatest Whatever. This is not a newspaper or a blog. Jytdog (talk) 19:24, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Edit war warning
Your recent editing history at Steemit shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war. See BRD for how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing&mdash;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&mdash;even if you don't violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly. Jytdog (talk) 20:19, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Unsourced promotional content

 * Ambox warning pn.svg Please stop adding unsourced content, as you did to Steemit. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.


 * Stop hand nuvola.svg You may be blocked from editing without further warning the next time you use Wikipedia for soapboxing, promotion or advertising, as you did at Steemit.

-- Jytdog (talk) 20:20, 2 May 2018 (UTC)


 * You are the one engaging in unjustified reversions and edit warring. But you are too nasty a person to deal with and I am not prone to fighting like you are, so I will not carry this issue any further and will allow your reversion to stand. --Ben Best:Talk 21:52, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

Conflict of interest
btw, please be aware that the community has determined that holding a cryptocurrency and editing about that currency creates a conflict of interest.

If you hold steemit, please disclose that, and please refrain from editing directly about it or its competitors. Please see WP:COI.

Thanks. Jytdog (talk) 20:24, 2 May 2018 (UTC)


 * I do not own STEEM or participate in the Steemit social networking community. I was updating a page was reading for the first time to make the information current. You continue to defame my character without any evidence, which shows what a nasty temperament you have. Please be more civilized. --Ben Best:Talk 21:50, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Thanks for clarifying that you don't hold Steem. Our articles on cryptocurrencies have been getting hammered by people hyping them, editing and behaving badly. The community has already indeffed two people coming out of those communities and I imagine there will be more to come.  Jytdog (talk) 01:20, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Endothelin edits
On my talk page you said, ''I am not confusing endothelin with endothelium, but I did mis-spell as endothelin-1 as endothelium-1. I generally avoid "revert wars", but I reverted your revert in this case because I did not notice my mis-spelling, and because the information I wrote was solidly based on information in the review articles I cited. One of these articles is easily enough accessed by PMC text: Endothelial function and the regulation of muscle protein anabolism in older adults so you can see for yourself. Unless you have access to a university library system, you may not have access to the other article, but the information I reproduced is accurate. Please revert your revert.''
 * Your content and choice of sources are off topic. There are several reviews on endothelin (not about endothelium). --Zefr (talk) 19:06, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
 * You are confusing my mis-spelling with being off-topic and you are not reading the papers I cited to verify that the subject of those papers included discussion about endothelin-1. It is incorrect to conclude that the paper titled "Endothelial function and the regulation of muscle protein anabolism in older adult" does not included the information about endothelin-1 that I described. You could verify this by reading the paper rather than just looking at the title. For the other paper, in the paragraph before Protection from adverse effects of risk factors the Seals, et al paper states "Expression of ET‐1 in vascular endothelial cells increases with age in sedentary healthy men (Donato et al. 2009)." where ET-1 is abbreviated from endothelin-1 at the top of that paragraph. Please revert your revert (with the spelling correction, of course). --Ben Best:Talk 19:24, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Caps and redirect bypassing in journal names
You should cite journals like this instead. Journals should not be capitalized, and redirects should not be bypassed (this is especially important because if a journal is created in the future, we want readers to be taken to the journal article, and not the lists). &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 16:42, 23 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Thank you for your patience @Headbomb (Headbomb) or even your impatience, and I apologize for my lack of understanding what you were telling me. I now understand that you have created redirections for the "Trends (journals)" journals which do not have wikipedia entries, such that if I write | journal = Trends in Ecology & Evolution or | journal = Trends in Molecular Medicine, both will redirect to the "Trends (journals)" page. That simplifies things. I would rather use this facility than capitalization and redirection. Have you implemented redirection for every journal under "List of MDPI academic journals" ?  The notes at the top of that page only list redirection for Aerospace (journal) and Biosensors (journal). What other journal lists has redirection been implemented for? I think it would be helpful to put note informing other Wikipedia editors of the redirection facility at the top of such pages, to be more general than the Aerospace and Biosensors journals. I would do this myself, except that I defer to your vast editing knowledge. I may not literally be a "newbie", but compared to you I am. -- Ben Best:Talk 12:16, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Most journals have redirects setup yes. It's possible some of the newer ones don't, but redlinks are fine to have. &#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 16:19, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I have attempted to emulate your efforts by creating a redirect page for the journal Integrative medicine research Integrative Medicine Research to List of Elsevier periodicals, but it doesn't look up to your standards. So perhaps you can clean-up this mess I made as well, @Headbomb. --Ben Best:Talk 16:24, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I failed to capitalize all initial letters in the journal article, but can't seem to fix that mistake, @Headbomb. --Ben Best:Talk 16:29, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
 * Like I said, redlinks are fine, see WP:REDLINKS. You don't have to create redirects. Redirects were created for MDPI and Frontiers because those publishers churn journals like people give candy at Halloween, and most MDPI/Frontiers journals aren't individually notable. It's also pretty easy to find if a journal is published by MDPI or Frontiers, and there's not much else you need to know about individual journals. Elsevier publications however, are hugely varied, published under dozens of imprints, regularly acquired, sold, etc... which makes mass redirects to List of publications much less desirable, or needed. s&#32; Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 16:37, 26 October 2020 (UTC)

Pterostilbene edits
On my talk page, you said: ''You cited MDPI, although the journals are reported to be of variable quality. What evidence do you have that Molecules is not of acceptable quality, other than the apparent bias you have against Pterostilbene? Do you really believe you are being objective about this subject, or about me?''
 * Publishing in MDPI is a WP:REDFLAG for Wikipedia editors because we know editorial practices may be compromised or absent. There seems to be general agreement by medical editors that each article in an MDPI journal be assessed individually, with skepticism.
 * Concerning this edit, which I suggest should be viewed as possibly non-replicable results (see WP:MEDANIMAL and WP:WHYMEDRS), this lab research does not belong in a section on Research because it is far too preliminary and potentially misleading to non-medical readers, WP:NOTJOURNAL #7. As we have for the Research section on Resveratrol, the Research section should be devoted to the highest-quality human studies available. Such a qualification is self-limiting for pterostilbene because there is no "high-quality human research" on this compound. For many articles, such as endothelin and pterostilbene, your editing indicates a preference to treat lab research as informative about human health or disease (pharmacokinetics is a separate matter). You are right - I disagree, and will continue to challenge, preferring that an encyclopedia is WP:NOTEVERYTHING and follows rigorous WP:MEDRS reviews. Zefr (talk) 17:13, 18 November 2020 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at Phytic acid, without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. ''You need to consider your sources more carefully, as you are choosing references poorly for several articles you have edited. A strong WP:MEDRS review source would be needed to make statements about anti-cancer effects. Check first the FDA or EFSA websites to see where regulatory agencies have reviewed anti-cancer evidence - you won't find any for phytic acid. Be more careful.'' Zefr (talk) 21:39, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * On what grounds do you justify your claim that reviews in the Journal of Nutrition or Journal of AOAC International are unreliable sources? --Ben Best:Talk 22:03, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * This statement reveals the issue with your editing: you are not reading (not understanding?) WP:MEDRS. It is not a matter of general reliability, but rather an issue of expertise by authors and editorial boards on the field of medicine and anti-disease evidence for Wikipedia content. Neither of those sources is a location where experts on human diseases publish - see WP:MEDASSESS - "Assessing evidence quality" means editors should determine quality of the type of source and quality of the publication. Respect the levels of evidence." Try to understand this: you are placing a significant amount of misinformation into the encyclopedia because your choice of sources for nutrition, human health, and anti-disease topics is often from non-expert literature, then you misinterpret (such as from lab research on rodents) a human health benefit or anti-disease effect. This produces misinformation that unsuspecting users may believe, and creates work for other medical editors to correct your errors. Zefr (talk) 22:17, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

Re: BioMed Central
Hi ben, the BMC series is BioMed Central's own collection of journals, led by their own staff editors. The other titles on their platform are led by independent academic editorial boards, and often owned by other organisations (societies, institutes, etc) contracting the publishing platform etc from BioMed Central. There's more info explaining it here: https://www.biomedcentral.com/p/the-bmc-series-journals Joe D (t) 18:45, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of American Open Currency Standard


The article American Open Currency Standard has been proposed for deletion&#32;because of the following concern: "No evidence of notability, no references, nothing in a WP:BEFORE - no evidence this was ever notable in any way, let alone sufficient coverage for WP:NORG."

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 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 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.

Your recent editing history shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war; that means that you are repeatedly changing content back to how you think it should be, when you have seen that other editors disagree. To resolve the content dispute, please do not revert or change the edits of others when you are reverted. Instead of reverting, please use the talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. The best practice at this stage is to discuss, not edit-war; read about how this is done. If discussions reach an impasse, you can then post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

Being involved in an edit war can result in you being blocked from editing&mdash;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&mdash;even if you do not violate the three-revert rule&mdash;should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

Deletion discussion about ATG (autophagy acronym)
Hello Benbest, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.

While your contributions are appreciated, I wanted to let you know that I've started a discussion about whether an article that you created, ATG (autophagy acronym), should be deleted, as I am not sure that it is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia in its current form. Your comments are welcome at Articles for deletion/ATG (autophagy acronym).

Deletion discussions usually run for seven days and are not votes. Our guide about effectively contributing to such discussions is worth a read. The most common issue in these discussions is notability, but it's not the only aspect that may be discussed; read the nomination and any other comments carefully before you contribute to the discussion. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.

If you have any questions, please leave a comment here and prepend it with. And don't forget to sign your reply with. Thanks!
