Hi Citysave,

I wanted to mention that I removed your physiology edit on alcohol, since this topic is covered instead in the article effects of alcohol on the body. The alcohol page covers principally the common functional group. I have added a clear disambiguation link to the alcohol article, since this was not clear before. The content you wrote has not been lost forever, you can still access it here. Since your upload looks valuable, I'm also posting your edit here for you to work with:

Alcohol, ethyl alcohol or ethanol, is a solvent that is used as a beverage, topical antiseptic, in colognes, and in some instances a rubbing alcohol. Alcohol use may be seen in adolescents and may affect their normal function as well as threaten society., especially if the adolescent is driving under the influence of alcohol. The effects of alcohol depend on the level. The alcohol level depends on the quantity of alcohol ingested, the size of the patient, and whether food was ingested. A person on most states is medico legally intoxicated at 100 mg/dl. At 50 to 150 mg/dl the patient is uncoordinated and has blurred vision and a slow reaction time. At 150 to 300 mg/dl stupor, hypoglycemia, and coma are present. A level greater than 500 mg/dl is fatal if the patient has no tolerance. An alcohol and blood glucose level should be obtained. The treatment is supportive. Hypoglycemia and acidosis should be treated. Artificial ventilation may be needed for respiratory failure. Alcohol is rapidly absorbed from the gut and is not adsorbed by activated charcoal, therefore GI contamination of patients presenting more than 2 hours after ingestion should not be done. Gastric lavage shoudl be used in earlier presentations. However, activated charcoal shoudl be administered to adolescents because of the potential drug coingestion. Dialysis should be considered for blood alcohol levels greater than 400 mg/dl. Hypoglycemia and seizures may occur. Death may result from respiratory failure.

I think much of what you wrote is the the "effects" article, but this isn't my area, so could you perhaps take a look at the effects of alcohol page and integrate your content into that? I notice the article has a "cleanup" tag on it, so probably some input from someone with your expertise would be very welcome. Thanks, Walkerma 10:01, 14 December 2005 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Figure2-1.gif
Thanks for uploading Image:Figure2-1.gif. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use GFDL-self to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at Image copyright tags. See Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Dethomas 16:04, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
