IUPHAR
Please refrain from changing the internationally accepted and standard abbreviations agreed to by the Human Genome Organization. The HUGO Gene Nomenclature Committee is responsible for providing human gene naming guidelines and approving new, unique human gene names and symbols (short form abbreviations). Thank you.

Indeed, that is the job of HUGO, establishing gene names. NC-IUPHAR, however, is responsible for establishing consensus protein names through the use of expert subcommittee, and when a new receptor or channel gene/protein is discovered NC-IUPHAR works closely with HUGO. At no point have I altered the HUGO gene names, I have simply augmented the article by ensuring the consensus protein names are used where the protein, rather than the gene, is referred to. If there is an example where I have inadvertently changed the name where the gene is the intended subject of the sentence, I apologise. Do highlight to me those occurrences if you wish. Your comment simply highlights the need to use correct protein names, and not simply to use the gene name to refer to the protein Flikr (talk) 12:32, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey there. Nice article. You're off to a great start. For a Wikipedian with just a few days' experience, you've done a lot.  Graymornings (talk) 12:14, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
