A cup of coffee for you!

 * Dear, I am genuinely moved by your message. Thank you for the disclosure. I am also linked to two nonprofit organisations which advocate for access to medicines, although in our case - rare diseases - we also have to consider higher development costs and smaller "customer population", so we cannot always press for lower prices. Also, I am a volunteer, not an employee. That said, in no way am I an expert on drug pricing, and I know the matter primarily through the prism of drug pricing in rare diseases (excellent EURORDIS conferences!).


 * As far as I recall, mean price for a given drug varies greatly across EU, with some payers (usually, national healthcare providers) agreeing to pay even 2–2.5 times more than the prices charged to other EU payers. Details of each contract are of course kept confidential, but some interesting statistics are available with EURORDIS and the European Commission. In the European context, it is quite hard to establish a "wholesale price" even for a single drug – will "wholesale" be the price paid by the government, or one paid by pharmacies? Or by private hospitals? Here, someone trying to propose a "globally true wholesale price", and even more, a "global retail price", borders absurdity in my view. But I don't know, sometimes decisions of the Wikipedia community are more driven by "let's include everything we can come up with" than by common sense.

SMN
Hi kashmiri  re the moves I made to SMN (I only moved it twice) - I only came across the page when I was looking for info on 'gems' and there seemed to be a lot of confusion around. I was only trying to clear some of this and the references I found and cited used 'of' in the phrasing - also used in the infoboxes of SMN1 and 2 - the refs I've seen also refer to 'motor neurons protein'. It doesn't matter to me which is used but it would help if there was a consistency in the pages. And if its more usual to use the gene I would suggest as already suggested on talk page that SMN be merged to SMN1. Thanks --Iztwoz (talk) 23:23, 27 May 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi Yes it may be confusing. The literature has not yet standardised the name - SMN1's function was only described in 1995. That paper consistently uses "survival motor neuron". On the other hand, OMIM has consistently "survival of motor neuron". I am fine with either.


 * As to whether to keep SMN under SMN1, I am not that sure, because SMN is also a product of SMN2 gene – there are even a few therapies under development that aim to increase coding of SMN from the SMN2 gene. I am inclined to keep the SMN article separate, the way it is, at least for the time being. Regards, — kashmiri  TALK  23:53, 27 May 2016 (UTC)


 * 'Survival of motor neuron' is used on the Gideon Dreyfuss page and in its ref - would suggest sticking with that and dropping the use of protein - thanks --Iztwoz (talk) 23:59, 27 May 2016 (UTC)

multiple sclerosis cure report
Hi Kashmiri, I have just read your concern that I may have cited a press report in its entirety. I did not. It is just an extract of the press report, and moreover I have cited the source in agreement with copyright law. If you are able to access and read the Cell Report article and contribute to Wikipedia, I would appreciate it. Alternatively, please remove the editing block so that someone else can do so.86.154.102.141 (talk) 16:17, 1 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Hi, the problem is even the Cell Report article, which sure is compliant with WP:MEDRS, is a WP:PRIMARY source whereas there is strong preference for WP:SECONDARY sources for medicine-related articles. Reporting results of preclinical studies, and even pilot clinical trials, is also discouraged because the obtained results, even though published, cannot be considered conclusive for efficacy. Results of completed efficacy trials can be published, I believe, although I would still need to locate the actual policy. — kashmiri  TALK  16:22, 1 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Unable to locate the article in Cell Reports . — kashmiri  TALK  16:27, 1 June 2016 (UTC)

Would you like to start one, (given comments you left on my talk page)?

I've excluded free images because they probably should be on commons anyway.Sfan00 IMG (talk) 10:23, 17 June 2016 (UTC)


 * Good idea - the question is, I believe, whether we should add "(logo)" and possibly expand acronyms across Wikipedia, or leave the file names as they are, possibly consistent with the main article title. I am afraid I will have little time for Wikipedia until mid-next week, as a good RfC requires explanation and justification, so feel free to go ahead.

The next time I find you leaving or creating unsourced content in WP, I will take you to ANI.

Please stop adding unsourced content. This contravenes Wikipedia's policy on verifiability. If you continue to do so, you may be blocked from editing Wikipedia. Jytdog (talk) 17:45, 4 January 2017 (UTC)

.ANI
I appreciate the thanks for my comment at ANI, but you've been around even longer than I have (all accounts considered) and you should know as well as I do that it is everyone's responsibility to engage in discussion, regardless of who made the initial edit or revert, or who failed to do so when they "ought to".

You would be well advised to note that the effectiveness of a report is often equal to the attempts of the reporter to engage in resolution, and the long standing reluctance of the reported to take it seriously. I have often started the discussion when I am the reverter, the reverted, or even a third party, because that is how you build an encyclopedia. Timothy Joseph Wood 02:55, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * I would also note that editing in between other's comments is confusing an generally frowned upon. I would suggest fixing yourself in that area and making a succinct reply instead. Timothy Joseph Wood  03:03, 5 January 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry for editing in between other's comments. Someone using bullet points all over made responding not very legible. Will refrain from it next time.
 * As to collaborative editing, it always takes two to a tango. After my attempts to engage with Jytdog went nowhere   and he went on reverting my contributions and calling them "garbage", I had no more patience to be treated this way. ANI is precisely to sort out such behavioural problems, isn't it.
 * Your comments about collaborative editing were helpful. Your attempts to criticise my past edits were not needed. rRegards, — kashmiri  TALK  02:54, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

Deletion of native language at Srinagar airport article
Hello, I had deleted the Urdu translation of Srinagar International Airport per WP:INDICSCRIPT. True, this policy does not explicitly mention infoboxes, but I would say the lead and the infobox serve very similar functions. If there is consensus to omit the native language from the lead, I feel it is inappropriate to simply add it to the infobox. This defeats the purpose of the consensus – to avoid conflicts over which languages to add. Please consider. — Sunnya343&#9992; (háblame • my work) 02:35, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I believe the discussion and consensus were only about the lead section. The "native name" field in the infobox, on the other hand, was intended precisely for native names and I saw it is being used for this purpose in a number of languages and scripts. It is the first time I saw an editor quoting INDISCRIPT to remove script from an infobox. I am not really sure whether you are correct but I am not willing to go to war over it either. Feel free to revert me if you feel strongly about it - otherwise, an RfC might be an option. Regards, — kashmiri  TALK  02:47, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean; I have never done that before, but upon reading through the RfC, I feel it is appropriate. To me, adding languages to the infobox sets us up for the conflicts that led to the WP:INDICSCRIPT discussion. Also, it should be noted that the "native name" field in the infobox predates WP:INDICSCRIPT. I first made this edit at Kempegowda International Airport and noticed that two other editors agreed with me. If you don't mind, I would like to revert your edit, but please tell me if you have further concerns. — Sunnya343&#9992; (háblame • my work) 03:26, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Sure, go ahead. Even though I understood from RfC that the case of geographic names is a borderline one and there seemed to be a consensus that GEO places can have local name. But I am not strongly for or against. — kashmiri  TALK  12:59, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

 * I very much appreciate your words. I read your on your page that you started a biotec, my full respect. Personally I am linked with research in neurology (and research funding). I suggest we try to be WP:CIVIL, don't call each other's GF edits "garbage", and should our views differ on a given topic, we don't revert each other but try to come up with consensus text on Talk. I also won't follow you. How does it sound? — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  21:29, 6 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Sure. Let's just keep in mind that MEDRS are also required in alternative medicine, and this usually means authoritative SECONDARY sources. — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  21:37, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * OK, good let's talk about that. Have you edited much on alt med/pseudoscience topics in WP? (real question, i just want to see where you are coming from)  Jytdog (talk) 21:46, 6 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Well, we can talk but WP:MEDRS requires that it also applies to alternative medicine. I indeed did edit a few pseudoscience articles - I recall an article on Burzynski, I think I tried to bring focus to clinical evidence (or rather its lack), back from the focus on publicity, legal cases and overall Burzynski-bashing that some editors seemed to prefer. Had fought hard against stem cell hype. Had a clash with some conspiracy theorists elsewhere. I did a couple of mysticism-related articles (yoga, etc.) but avoided health-related parts (precisely due to lack of MEDRS). See, I edit on a range of topics, anything from neurology to lingustics to armed conflicts to ethnology to religious movements (and my favourite sport: sockpuppet-hunting), so don't remember most of what I edit.
 * I think I am pretty hard on pseudo-science. However, as to alternative systems of medicine, I prefer being cautious before branding them as "superstition". We see a lot of overlapping between what is considered mainstream and non-mainstream at any given moment, with various procedures and therapies being constantly inluded or excluded from the academic medicine (whose exact boundaries are also not easy to define). To give an example, I remember when in the 1970s, herbal therapies were publicly called a susperstition; even though I am now dealing with academic studies of curcuminoids as a SMN2 splicing modifier to possibly treat SMA. Or, ostheopathy was once considered alternative medicine but some (some!) of its methods are being more and more accepted by the mainstream. At the same time, as you perfectly know, various procedures and therapeutic methods are being removed from the mainstream as they are being found not based on evidence but on incorrect concepts ("beliefs" as you'd perhaps say).
 * The subject is lenghty, not sure I am able to engage at this time - we are having three clinical trials just opened and I need to devote time to enrollment and their quality, so I might not be able to respond promptly. But thanks for your extended hand, I reciprocate. Regards, — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  18:09, 7 January 2017 (UTC)
 * BTW, I would appreciate if you trust my edits on SMA and related neuromuscular disorders. I do not always have time to link to quality published sources (which would not be a leaflet), but the information I add is never promotional and is usually 100% correct. I always mark unsourced info with anyway, which is more than most editors do. Regards, —  kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  16:21, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Well I really hope your understanding in the altmed space has progressed beyond what was in evidence in the Burzynski Clinic article in contributions like this. At the time editors were also complaining about your "fisking" of other editors' comments not being helpful, but you're still doing that. Alexbrn (talk) 18:48, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Yes, I should have perhaps led the discussion in a different manner then, but I stand by my comments that Burzynski's compounds have no proven efficacy (per source - but not "proven inefficacy" as some editors wanted; simply, lack of controlled trial data did not allow drawing any meaningful conclusion). While my personal opinion of Burzynski's business is the exact opposite of high esteem, I'd rather stick with how his treatments are described by academic sources and not tabloids, and am against trying to add every single negative mention found about Burzynski to the article. In my understanding, Wikipedia should present facts in a neutral, objective, cold way instead of fiercely proselytising for or against anything/anyone. But that's my take on it, everyone is entitled to his/her own. — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  19:11, 8 January 2017 (UTC)

Kaula is an adjective. Kulamarga is a noun.
Also, Kulamarga is the term used by the top Saiva expert, Alexis Sanderson.<span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;"> VictoriaGrayson <b style="font-family:Helvetica Neue;color:#707">Talk</b> 14:33, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
 * I have noticed that you keep promoting Alexis and deleting references to the works of his predecessors (Jaideva Singh, Mark Dyczkowski, etc.), which is what I intend to object to at one point. The thing is, Wikipedia policies do not require "AlexisName" but "CommonName".
 * Kaula is commonly used as a noun, although by texts belonging to the doctrine itself rather than by outside sources which predominantly use kula. (A slight semantical difference is there between kulam and kaulam but we can safely ignore it here). For evidence of kaulam, see e.g. Monier-Williams.. — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  18:22, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
 * The reference I use was republished in the Brill encyclopedia of Hinduism, which is a tertiary reference.<span style="text-shadow: 4px 4px 15px #FF9900, -4px -4px 15px #FF0099;"> VictoriaGrayson <b style="font-family:Helvetica Neue;color:#707">Talk</b> 19:02, 25 March 2017 (UTC)
 * Alexis Sanderson is a WP:PRIMARY source on Sanskrit usage. For the same reason I won't cite Kularnava Tantra, even though it uses kaula as noun all over and, as you might know, is the scripture for Kaula. On the other hand, Monier-Williams is a recognised WP:SECONDARY source for the Sanskrit language. See, Wikipedia does not really care what Mr Sanderson thinks people should use but only records what terms are used. I encourage you to read WP:COMMONNAME again.
 * As a side note, I am not sure what is your level of knowledge of Sanskrit, but kulamarga means "practice of Kula" whereas the article also intends to cover the doctrine. Sure, in everyday usage it's ok to say that someone follows kulamarga, kula or kaula, but when writing articles for Wikipedia we should keep in mind these subtle differences. — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  19:21, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Yes, this reference indeed is a tertiary source, and uses "Kaula" both as an adjective and a noun. Also, take a look at the titles of Kaula works quoted there: Paścimāmnāya-Kaula, Kaulakamala, Ūrmikaulārṇava, Nityākaula, etc. They are a perfect example of the usage of kaula as a noun denoting the teachings/tradition. Although kula is the predominant term of course. — kashmiri  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  19:28, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

 * Yep, that's I don't know to what extent we should keep such occurrences in popular culture in articles. This could merit a discussion on WP:MED. My feeling is, a different bar should apply to common diseases and to rare diseases. As to this case, I have been observing a worrying tendency to favour Euro/American references to those from non-Europe/USA countries - even though the Japanese TV show, featuring a famous Japanese actor, will likely be much more popular in absolute number of viewers than some episode of a Stargate Universe series.

OK good questions : Zaheer Abbass Gondal and Faqeer Noor Muhammad Sarwari Qadiri are notable indeed. One may ask why?

You can find online as well in islamic books stores in pakistan and elsewhere the books of Faqeer Noor Muhammad Kalachvi ® he's the author of various books notably, IRFAN 1 , IRFAN 2 , MAKHZANUL ASRAR etc further you can find documentary on this Blessed Sufi Personality on youtube he had taken veil from this temporary abode a long ago i.e decades. Secondly he had made a good sincere effort to collect and translate the books of Hazrat Sultan Bahu ® which were very hard to find and its a not piece of cake to do that it takes a lifetime to achieve such work, he was notably the first translator of Hazrat Sultan Bahu ® to urdu language from original persian language.

[Just to add the "only" second translator of Hazrat Sultan Bahu ® books from Persian (original language) to urdu was Dr KB Naseem ® (he too passed away a few years back) his translations of the Hazrat Sultan Bahu ® book is the most accurate as he further collected the original work(books) of Sultan Bahu ® books and looked at all the different versions he had and put forth the most authentic version of the books and made the translations to Urdu Language]

About Zaheer Abbas? Well he is the ONLY translator that has taken this work of translation further with adding the Translations of all the Sultan Bahu ® books from Urdu to "English" Language. You can find his work in online website related to Hazrat Sultan Bahu.

To point the books are special works associated directly with Sultan Bahu ® and reading them has spiritual benefits such as spiritual enlightenment experienced by friends of Allah and similarly the translations too are notably remarkable piece of efforts and work and the Translators themselves are the first of the beneficiaries from the Translations as both in case of Hazrat Faqeer Noor Muhammad Kalachvi ® and Dr KB Naseem ® Stated they received spiritual blessings just by the translating the Works of the Great Islamic Mystic.

Hope this has been to some beneficence to you and a pleasure to read and an acknowledgement.

Note: Sultan Bahu ® never desired money, pomp or fame but to publicise free reading of his work (online link) within the Article: Sultan Bahu ® (Biography) supposedly should be okay? As it adds valuable reference to the Work of Great Sufi Mystic.

Thank You.

You Should acknowledge what i had already written : Faqeer Noor Muhammad Kalachvi ® he's the author of various books notably, IRFAN 1 , IRFAN 2 , MAKHZANUL ASRAR etc (other than Sultan Bahu ra Books translations) further you can find documentary on this Blessed Sufi Personality on youtube he had taken veil from this temporary abode a long ago i.e decades. The mentioned personality's contributions are very notable and influential among people in the sub-continent as well as over the globe.

The question you raise if being a translator holds any significance then you should note they have translated the books of Hazrat Sultan Bahu ra for whom personality wikipedia already have a article page on the site so its very relevant and appropriate to recognise these personality's are notable in regards they have translated the works of SULTAN BAHU ra.

Moreover being a translator you should be able to comprehend they are actually termed the AUTHOR for Urdu/English Books of Sultan Bahu ra.

The things i have written are FACTS and what you state is FANTASY FICTION and you should show respect and HONOUR to personality's that are revered and honoured by wide masses. You are free to state you'r life contributions amounts to be nothing or not notable according to whatever rule of fantasy world but for other's who have actually achieved a landmark of achievements in their life please refrain from making such an statement.

Note: Don't overdose yourself with wikipedia rules (i.e non-sense ) they like to enshrine a certain president's names but don't want to honour the Name of Prophet of Islam Muhammad (peace be upon him) or other groups individuals (refer to my talk page).

First i would reiterate there was no personal remarks (as you like to state it as attack?) to you or an another individual however where necessary example has been made to make things more explicit for the greater understanding of the respondent.

I would affirm to my statement in good will the "rule" of wikipedia is biased as C.fred agreed to this ( on my talk page ). The discussion is apparently public and any sane individual can come to this conclusion. So i don't need reference or clarity to whats already very clear and admittedly showing bias towards people of different nationals and background. If If something is allowed for one individual it should be allowed for others and it should not be required to present this as a new case or indulge in opening a new debate or conversation on wikipedia.

Wheelchair user
Phrases such as "wheelchair bound" have increasingly fallen into disuse because they're pointlessly stigmatising towards disabled people: referring to someone who uses a wheelchair to do many, many things they could not otherwise do as being "bound" to one is not neutral, while "wheelchair user" just states the fact that they use a wheelchair.

Poland
Pls, stop edit warring see (3RR), the list of 'minority languages' is based on formal recognition by the Polish government and it does not include Silesian for example, which in this case is still debated (if it's a language or a dialect). Also, this is a short-hand list, because it's in the info box (designed to only provide a snap-shot of basic facts about a country), so the reader can read about all the languages in Poland or dialects on the Languages of Poland page. --E-960 (talk) 20:36, 7 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Can you explain why you keep pushing Hungarian in, even though it is not a language spoken in Poland nor has it any official recognition there? And why you are removing other officially recognised languages, despite the source mentioning them? WP:CHERRY is not allowed here. — kashmīrī  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  20:42, 7 December 2017 (UTC)


 * Sorry, you got the wrong person, it's user Perunslava that keeps doing that and I keep reverting his edits. --E-960 (talk) 20:43, 7 December 2017 (UTC)


 * True, it was another editor with Hungarian. But you keep deleting officially recognised minority languages, like Russian, Slovakian, Lithuanian. Any specific reason for cherry-picking only 7 out of 16? — kashmīrī  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  20:49, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Also, I will say again... this list does not include all 15 'national minority' language and 'ethnic minority' language in order to avoid an info box that is excruciatingly long (this is a longstanding approach) — then another editor will come by and will want to list all 23 minority groups in Poland in the info box. (That's why you have the link to the full article — all this is not meant for the info box) --E-960 (talk) 20:55, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
 * 16 words is hardly "excruciatingly long". Sure, Indonesia and China had to shorten their lists, but both articles include wikilinks to respective language lists. India features a good approach for shorter lists like we have in Poland. But what you did under Poland is (1) misleading, because it appears as a complete list, (2) badly sourced, because the linked source does not confirm the preceding statement. — kashmīrī  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  21:04, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

First off, this list is from long before I started editing, second you want to change it start a discussion on talk page, third look at list of languages in articles for France or Germany, they don't even bother listing minority languages (and in the case of Poland no minority language is of any significance over 1%). So, you and user Perunslava are really creating an issue over something very minor. Perhaps, if you on first take did the India approach I could understand it, but instead I had to reverse nonsense based on criteria decided by user Perunslava such as 'mixed marriages'. --E-960 (talk) 21:08, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
 * Btw, are you going to do the same for the 'ethnic groups' just so the languages and groups sections correlate (list everything including percent) instead of this silly cherry picking that I was left reverting?? --E-960 (talk) 21:21, 7 December 2017 (UTC)

Updating the logo on the Biomed Central page
Hi Kashmiri,

The BioMed Central logo needs to be replaced with a new one with the same rights as the previous. I have tried to upload the new logo, but don't see the rights that seem applicable. Could you advise how I might be able to send the replacement? Thank you for your time. BMCDeb (talk) 13:01, 2 March 2018 (UTC)


 * It looks like it would be too simple for copyright, even by UK standards, although I'd appreciate if you could confirm as you seem to be affiliated with BMC. If it is indeed too simple, then it should go to Wikimedia Commons as.
 * Anyhow, I have now uploaded it to Commons:File:BioMed_Central_2018.svg, hope it is ok with you. —  kashmīrī  <sup style="font-family:Candara; color:#80F;">TALK  14:07, 2 March 2018 (UTC)
