A request
Hi Ekem, I got your name from the list of participants at WikiProject Medicine, as someone with an MD who specializes in gynaecology. I'm wondering whether you'd be willing to look at an article.

I've submitted Female genital mutilation for featured-article status. The nomination page is at Featured article candidates/Female genital mutilation/archive1.

I've approached it as a human-rights issue, rather than as a detailed medical article, and I'd like to keep it that way—a relatively short (4,000 words) general overview—so that it's as accessible as possible. However, a concern was raised on the FAC talk page (here) that the health consequences section may not be up-to-date or detailed enough. I think it is, but it would be very helpful if a qualified person could cast an eye over it to make sure there is nothing false or too simplistic, and no key issues missing.

Whether this is just an informal glance, or whether you leave a review on the FAC page itself—either of those would be extremely helpful. February 6 is the UN's International Day of Zero Tolerance to Female Genital Mutilation, so I was thinking it would be good to nominate it for the main page on that day, but it has to be a featured article to make it eligible.

If you're too busy, however, I'll completely understand, so please feel free to say no. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 20:30, 16 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Ekem, thank you, that would be wonderful. I'll try to use the Abdulcadir review (PMID 21213149) to say more about the repair aspects. SlimVirgin  TALK |  CONTRIBS 16:48, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi again, Ekem, thank you for all the work you did on this. As there were two objections to the nomination, one informal on the talk page, and one formal on the nomination page, I've withdrawn the nomination for now. I don't know whether I will want to renominate it. What I would like to avoid is medicializing it to the point where most readers would have difficulty understanding it, because I see it primarily as a major human rights issue where a broad appeal is important. I don't know whether I'd be able to manage that (in terms of the writing style, and the sources used), and still overcome the objections that were raised. However, if you want to continue to work on it—in whatever direction you choose to take it—that would be absolutely fine, and indeed very helpful.

Thank you again for the edits you made, and for your quick and kind response to the request for help. SlimVirgin TALK |  CONTRIBS 23:57, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Female genital mutilation
Since you're actively editing I'll come back and double check things later, just wanted to let you know there's a few typos in the changes you made. Also the article tends not to use the term "mutilation" or "mutilated" by itself because that might be seen as too POV. Vietminh (talk) 17:50, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
 * As well, thank you for expanding on the health consequences, its much more informative now. Vietminh (talk) 18:42, 17 September 2011 (UTC)

Asif Ali Zardari (2011 Dubai hospitalization)
You added in the subject article "According to the prime minister, Yousuf Raza Gilani, Zardari sought medical treatment outside of Pakistan because of "threats to his life" possibly due to his attempt to rein in the Pakistani military." and cited The Telegraph. But the telegraph report didn't mention prime minister saying this(possibly due to his attempt to rein in the Pakistani military.), so I have removed that part of it for now, if you feel I am wrong(undo it :)), we can discuss it at article's talk page. -- S M S  Talk 21:46, 15 December 2011 (UTC)

Inequality edit
That the use of tax havens contribute to inequality is not stated directly in the article, except as a quote of someone. You're right the usage of tax havens contributes to smaller revenue collected by the government, but I don't see the direct support of the connection to inequality in the article. Do you have a supporting article quote? Burritoburritoburrito (talk) 00:45, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Hoffman modulation contrast
Hello Ekem, some years ago you uploaded File:Oocyte.jpg. The license tag says you are the creator. Now, the article Hoffman modulation contrast uses this images as an example for this technique. This may be correct but I am wondering about it since the file legend does not list the technique with which it was recorded. Could you confirm that this image was made with HMC? Preferably in the legend itself. Thanks, --Dietzel65 (talk) 14:29, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

The Wikipedia Library now offering accounts from Cochrane Collaboration (sign up!)
The Wikipedia Library gets Wikipedia editors free access to reliable sources that are behind paywalls. Because you are signed on as a medical editor, I thought you'd want to know about our most recent donation from Cochrane Collaboration. Cheers, Ocaasit &#124; c 20:17, 16 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Cochrane Collaboration is an independent medical nonprofit organization that conducts systematic reviews of randomized controlled trials of health-care interventions, which it then publishes in the Cochrane Library.
 * Cochrane has generously agreed to give free, full-access accounts to 100 medical editors. Individual access would otherwise cost between $300 and $800 per account.
 * If you are still active as a medical editor, come and sign up :)

Nomination of Elective caesarean section for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Elective caesarean section 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 Articles for deletion/Elective caesarean section 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.  Blue Rasberry  (talk)  14:24, 17 September 2014 (UTC)

Cryolipolysis
I noticed that you were a major contributor to the Cryolipolysis article in 2010.

I routinely bring articles up to GA on behalf of the article-subject in a COI capacity and am working on a draft Coolsculpting page. However, I am uncertain as to whether I am actually creating a "new" page, or if this is the same subject. Many sources seem to use Coolsculpting and Cryolipolysis synonymously and when you first contributed to Cryolipolysis the commercial product-aspect of it was not yet significant. The supplier Zeltiq had not gone public yet and the product had not become very popular until the following year (2011).

I was wondering if you had any thoughts on if we should have one page for Zeltiq, Coolsculpting, and Cryolipolysis or if there should be a couple pages, etc. CorporateM (Talk) 14:51, 30 September 2014 (UTC)


 * My suggestion is to keep coolsculpting and cryolipolysis on the same page. As I see it we are talking about the same thing, cryolipolysis the generic and technical term, and coolsculpting a (forgive me) "cooler" term more for advertising and promotion of cryolipolysis for cosmetic affects. "Coolsculpting" or "CoolScupting" also appears to be a trademark term, see here .  Zeltiq Aesthetics appropriately has its own page in WP, so equipment can be discussed there.

World's first laparoscopic appendectomy - David
Dear Ekem

I hope you don't mind me adding a section to your talk page.

The issue to be brought to you attention concerns the world's first laparoscopic appendectomy.

You mentioned that Dr. Kurt Semm a German performed the procedure in 1980.

I have it on good authority that the procedure was actually performed by Dr. Atef Gabrael an Australian in 1976 in the state of New South Wales at Minchinbury Hospital.

Dr. Niynatt Khan, a gynecologist and obstetrician was doing a laproscopic procedure for what was thought to be an ovarian cyst. Discovered during the procedure that it was appendicitis and approached Dr. Gabrael who completed procedure (laparoscopic appendectomy).

What are you thoughts and considerations on the matter?

Thanks

David — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.211.43.7 (talk) 00:54, 4 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Hi David,
 * "Good authority" will not fly in Wikipedia. It needs to be substantiated with a reputable reference. Further, did Dr. G. do more of :these? Did he show to others that the laparoscopic approach is viable?
 * In any case, I would agree that his accomplishment should be mentioned if it is sufficiently documented. Ekem (talk) 02:50, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Dear Ekem

Sorry for the idiom "good authority." I've actually spoken with Dr. Gabrael and he still practices medicine. I'm not sure if it was documented. There might be hospital records but I don't know if I would be able to access them.

I may be able to approach Dr. Khan, he may still be alive and living in New South Wales.

Would some of these be sufficient, for instance if I could obtain hospital records or first hand accounts in writing.

Thanking you for your time

David — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.211.43.7 (talk) 04:35, 4 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Hello David,
 * From the point of Wikipedia or any encyclopedia the event is hearsay unless documented and published. If it happened, it would still be publishable today. For this the hospital records would be very important as well as interviews with preferably both, Drs. Khan and Gabrael. If you can do this and publish it, great, - otherwise get in touch with a medical historian (many universities have a department or section dealing with medical history). If the records still exist, they can be reviewed. I hope this is possible before the trail of history disappears. Ekem (talk) 12:42, 4 October 2015 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of KPS Capital Partners


A tag has been placed on KPS Capital Partners, requesting that it be deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under two or more of the criteria for speedy deletion, by which pages can be deleted at any time, without discussion. If the page meets any of these strictly-defined criteria, then it may be soon be deleted by an administrator. The reasons it has been tagged are:
 * It seems to be unambiguous advertising which only promotes a company, product, group, service or person and would need to be fundamentally rewritten in order to become encyclopedic. (See section G11 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) Please read the guidelines on spam and FAQ/Business for more information.
 * It appears to be a clear copyright infringement of http://www.kpsfund.com/about/overview. (See section G12 of the criteria for speedy deletion.) 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 Donating copyrighted materials. If you are not the owner of the external website but have permission from that owner, see Requesting copyright permission. However, even if you use one of these processes to release copyrighted material to Wikipedia, it still needs to comply with the other policies and guidelines to be eligible for inclusion. If you would like any assistance with this, you can ask a question at the help desk.

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. —C.Fred (talk) 21:16, 9 May 2017 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Guayas (chief)


A tag has been placed on Guayas (chief) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

DOB sources
Please read WP:DOB; in particular, Wikipedia includes full names and dates of birth that have been widely published by reliable sources, or by sources linked to the subject such that it may reasonably be inferred that the subject does not object to the details being made public. (bold added) WP:IMDB is not a reliable source. A video on WP:YOUTUBE may be a reliable source, but in this case is not. Please only add dates of birth to BLPs when you have solid reliable sources for that information. Schazjmd  (talk)  16:23, 27 February 2022 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Egyptian National Railways (logo).jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Egyptian National Railways (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. --B-bot (talk) 17:13, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
