Bootes vs Canis Minor
Sigh - Bootes is getting there but it is so damn big - it's a tossup between these two as to go to GAN (or maybe both). Still scratching my head with Bootes and how to arrange the stars, but a bit sidetracked with other tasks....Betelgeuse is hitting a bit of turbulence :( Casliber (talk · contribs) 02:56, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I was actually thinking the same thing myself. I would be okay with both going to GAN, let me get through this week (midterms D:) and then maybe nominate? If there's anything I can do with Betelgeuse please let me know. I'll keep working on Bootes in the meantime. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 04:11, 2 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Okay, Canis Minor and Triangulum Australe are now GAs and I think TrA will be next up for FAC. I was practicing on some of these smaller constellations before tackling a biggie, so am just buffing Leo Minor. I feel a bit lost with Bootes. I do have an idea for Orion, which is a constellation I am a lot more familiar with than Bootes..so watch this space...Casliber (talk · contribs) 12:09, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * That's fantastic! I've been busy with school lately and will be trying this weekend to wring everything useful out of a couple sources before I lose access to them, but next week I could easily help out. If you want, I could look over TrA and add anything I can find, ditto for CMi. I'm at a loss with Bootes too, perhaps we could start work on Orion and let Bootes go for awhile... Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 14:53, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Essentially what I have found is this - the Motz/Nathanson book divides Orion into sub-bits (head, club, belt etc.) and discusses all the objects in a regional manner which gives it a nice structure, and it is fascinating as lots of the objects interact with each other (eg Rigel possibly illuminates the Witchs Head Nebula etc.). I'll get this on wiki soon. TrA is looking in better shape than CMi I think, so just some buffing of the former before FAC would be good. I am getting more intrigued by Rigel and the idea it might have a shell and have already been an RSG...in which case it is a candidate to go supernova before Betelgeuse....whoa...........Casliber (talk · contribs) 22:37, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I love that structure, that'll be an easy way to subdivide the article and then we don't have to try to split up stars and DSOs. Yay. If only we could do that for Bootes... I'll take a look at TrA for sure too, and I'd of course help out with the FAC if you needed it. :) Rigel is totally awesome, there's so much we have yet to figure out! Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 00:57, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Ok, so your vote would be to keep the DSOs in the segments....ok, that's cool. I was undecided about that....will continue. Been a bit swamped with stuff - got Leo Minor at GAN too, still sifting thru some stuff. Gotta get off the keyboard for a bit... if you have a few spare minutes to continue the TrA ref formatting that'd be great. Glad you started it but I got anxious and am scrambling to complete :P Casliber (talk · contribs) 21:54, 29 October 2012 (UTC) done it now so nevermind. cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 10:40, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

California Chess Congress of 1858
Hi, could you please provide a copy of deleted article California Chess Congress of 1858 to me? You deleted it after an AFD, back in 2008. I am working to restore some other work by the main contributor there, and I think this article could likely be salvaged. -- do ncr  am  14:36, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Keilana. I'm in Lisa Lu's Brain & Behavior class at Roosevelt University, and I am not receiving email notifications of changes to the articles on my watch list. I'm checking the list regularly, so I am finding the changes. It would be nice, though, to be notified. Do you have any idea what I can do to rectify this situation? Thanks!

Hello! Im part of Dr. Lu's neuroscience course. I have a question for you. How do I go about citing references a few times in the article? For example, I want to cite 1 and 2 a few times in my paragraph but instead of 1 and 2 appearing again it is now 3 and 4 instead of 1 and 2. And all my other references are counting up instead of correlating to the actual reference I need. thanks R.EEGbrittry (talk) 21:18, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for standing up for me. I really appreciate that. I was just trying to be creative on my talk page. Example: They're being so critical. It's as ridiculous as if I was a teacher and I said, "No homework for today." Then the kids start throwing pencils and text books at me! What's the point of doing that?! I was just trying to be nice.

Your adoptee needs advice
Please see User talk:SarahStierch and provide assistance. Any other stalkers are invited. Your adoptee, User talk:RAIDENRULES123, is insisting on adopting other "fresh from the incubator" new users. Considering assorted factors it can only lead to the detriment of the New Users she adopts. What can be done? This issue deals directly with Editor Retention and how New Editors should be protected from factors they know nothing about. They dont know but they are being fed poisoned food. That may be extreme but only to express my alarm and fear. The new users this editor adopts are, without a doubt, in harms way. I have left a similar message @ Ryan Vessey and Dennis Brown's Talk page. I assume good faith on the part of Deidra. I also assume poor judgement.```Buster Seven   Talk  05:52, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi Buster, no worries, I think she's gotten the message that she shouldn't be adopting anyone right now. I do think you could be a bit calmer and less apocalyptic in tone though, it's not the end of the world (or the encyclopedia) if a new editor is just a bit too enthusiastic. :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 19:42, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Can you perform a history merge of her user talk page? Either that or archive and redirect the RAIDENRULES123 one?  The existence of two userpages is becoming too confusing. Ryan Vesey 20:15, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Maybe I over-reacted. Maybe. I just wanted to stop it before it effected dozens of new editors. The one thing I'm sure of is that she is in good hands. I have copied your 5 Pillars test and moved it to a sandbox. If you have the time, maybe you could check out my answers.  See User:Buster7/sandbox. BTW, I live in Rogers Park. Small world. ```Buster Seven   Talk  20:40, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Ryan - yes I can, I just want to let her know what I'm doing and make sure she understands how it all works before I actually do it.
 * Buster - It's not a huge deal, editor retention is super important and your heart is definitely in the right place. :) I'll take a look at your answers when I get back to Chicago tonight. That's awesome, we should meet up at a library (Loyola's is lovely :P) and collaborate sometime! All the best, Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 20:55, 28 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Hi Buster. I just want to say, "I can't believe a person could over react as much as you did." Please, realize that it is not the end of the world. No one is dying. No one died. No one is being hurt, so stop over reacting. Please Buster. You are a great Wikipedian, you have made many results, you have influenced me, but please. Please, realize that it is my business and you don't have to spread it to other people's talk page if you don't mind. That makes me feel threatend and very uncomfortable. I appreciate the advice, but don't try to fix my business. Please continue to lend me advice and what I should do and consider, but please don't "alert the media." Thanks Buster7, I hope you understand the situation I'm in right now. Sorry if you disagree with my opinion. DEIDRA C. (talk) 21:14, 29 October 2012 (UTC)
 * I do disagree, but that's alright. Collaborators don't always agree. Please realize that your business is open for all to see. If other editors don't think what your doing is appropriate, they will take action. Many days ago I and many other editors asked you to be patient and not adopt other editors because you were not ready. When you did anyway, I felt that I needed to take action. I can see that you may not understand that but that's OK too. You are young. My advice is too continue to listen to veteran editors and do what they suggest. They will not lead you astray. ```Buster Seven   Talk  04:54, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Help request
Hi Keilana; how are you? I saw your name at the SPI area as a Clerk. Would you be kind enough to help me to open a sockpuppetry investigation? It is about redlink users Findblogging and IsrArmen. Their "contributions" speak for themselves; for me a very obvious case of sockpuppetry. As the first user is older here, we should suppose it is the master and the latter is the sockpuppet. (Although I suspect both accounts belong to a third user, I will not go that far for the moment. Sometimes killing the mosquitos instead of drying the swamp has the same effect as cutting the arms of a monster.) You can see an evaluation by DeltaQuad here. Please do not try to teach me how to fish, because I cannot learn (others tried in vain :-).(Before contacting you and even before contacting Delta I tried to open an SPI case by myself without any success. In a similar case, before, another user opened a case "in my name" stating this at the application. I believe and hope you may kindly do the same. As justification of the case please write: "Same articles, same interests, similar POV, similar style and same grammar mistakes, acting simultaneously on the same issues, especially lately, since IsrArmen was signed up". Thank you very much in advance and with my best wishes. Cordially. --E4024 (talk) 20:43, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Stars
Hi. Been browsing and its irritating to find so many one liners and when I google the name nothing in google books, just a few database. I was thinking of making a proposal to merge many of these articles on stars and asteroids and minor planets into lists. What do you think?♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  20:37, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey! I'm not entirely sure about these, because there is often a lot more information in books that maybe aren't searchable in Gbooks or whatever. Could you give me some examples? I think they should at least have a discovery paper or something... Let me think on it. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 20:50, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

9 Andromedae, 9 Aquarii etc... Couldn't a list better provide the info, unless of course it can be fully expanded? I'd guess that for most the information known about them specifically is sparse, or at least redirect to a list before a fuller article can be written? I'm not disputing notability of course, I'd have a decent article on anything out there! But I think there are an awful lot of database type stubs which would be better put into a tabled list for the time being..♦ Dr. ☠ Blofeld  21:42, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
 * That is true. I would support redirecting some of those to a list as long as all of the information was included in the list. As long as we could recreate once there was a significant study or some other information made available, that could work fine. My one concern is that articles like List of stars in Andromeda don't have all of the information included in the articles (e.g. color index, a lot of the astrometric data) and that would be lost in listifying. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 21:57, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
 * The other issue is that I like the idea of a redlink to highlight a possible article. Redirects create the illusion that something has been expanded sometimes. A great many can be expanded, like EK Trianguli Australis for instance. I must admit peer-reviewed star articles are alot more arcane than bio ones. I have the idea of losing info, and prefer trying to expand what can be expanded first. Casliber (talk · contribs) 00:49, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, for one, I would definitely prefer that we not redirect variable stars, at the very least, there'll be an AAVSO bulletin about the star and that could be the basis of an article. I also don't think we should delete these articles, as there's *something* there to be useful to a reader. I'm still meh about doing anything....though a lot of the stars with just a Flamsteed number don't really have much at all. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 01:09, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * I think at one point all stars visible to the naked eye (which includes all stars with Flamsteed numbers) were deemed to be notable enough to warrant their own article. One can fill out quite a bit of material based on their coding - e.g. spectral type gives us surface temperature, parallax gives us distance in light years/parsecs, parallax and apparent magnitude give us absolute magnitude etc. Most stars a binary, so info on that can be added, as can variability..Casliber (talk · contribs) 01:53, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * That's true, maybe prosifying a lot of that information could yield useful articles? I'm still unsure where I stand on this. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 02:18, 6 November 2012 (UTC)
 * A good example of a prosified article is Beta Pictoris. Casliber (talk · contribs) 08:03, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Congrats on WP Women Scientists, and glad to have you in WP Biophysics
Yes, I'm definitely interested in WP Women Scientists; I've signed myself up. I've been doing a bunch of editing in Biophysics-related biographies in general - even the men's pages are often missing or minimal, but of course it's always even more of a problem for the women's ones.

I've been adding both female entries and pictures to the List of biophysicists, and recently was disappointed that the photo of Rosalind Franklin was deleted for license issues. The photo was granted an exception for use on her own page - does or does not that allow us to use it in the list, where I also feel it's important because she's really iconic in this field? Thanks for any help or advice you have on that.

Might you perhaps be coming to the Biophysical Society meeting in Philadelphia this Feb? We'll have a meet-up for the WikiProject there, and are announcing a contest with buttons & barnstars and free membership & registration for the 2014 meeting in San Francisco. You'd have a really easy time winning one of the prizes! Dcrjsr (talk) 15:36, 6 November 2012 (UTC)


 * Yes, there are always events for undergrads at the BPS meetings and they can attend anything else they want, altho of course most of them come from places local to the meeting. The BPS also arranges low-cost housing for students (which I used one time, to avoid wasting grant money!)  Also, we could undoubtedly find a sympathetic member in the Bay area who'd give you a place to stay (my son lives there, for instance).  The only problem is getting to the meeting - but if you got one of the 6 awards with free membership & registration your dept might be willing to help get you to SF.  So, there actually are people even in academic science who value the kind of contributions you've been making to Wikipedia! Dcrjsr (talk) 16:08, 6 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi Keilana, just a quick technical note-- I'm not sure whether it's just me or not, but it looks like your candidate statement is not showing up on the WP:ACE2012/C page. Best, Lord Roem (talk) 21:39, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey Lord Roem, thanks for the note! I actually just realized that I totally forgot to transclude. Derp. I'll go do that now! Thanks, Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 22:20, 14 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Another note, your required to "confirm that the candidate will fully comply with the criteria for access to non-public data" in your statement, its a formality but you should add something about it. It doesn't count against the word limit. Monty  <sub style="color:#A3BFBF;">845  22:56, 14 November 2012 (UTC)

Hey K! Any updates on writing a blog about the women scientists project?

 * Hope your Thanksgiving went well. You on facebook?  Anyways..I hope to start up some articles and revamp some old ones, especially in area where I grew up and also where I make my home, Central Pennsylvania.  Like I said before, I was born in Clearfield, Pennsylvania, about 30 miles west of State College, home of Penn State University.

I am on Facebook but I don't like to connect my real life identity with my username here, sorry. That's an awesome idea, how about working on the article for your hometown? One resource I just found out about was that my public library had a lot of books on local history. Editors not from the area wouldn't have access to that, so you have a lot to offer. You should definitely see if your library has those resources. :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 18:02, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

We have a room for you at the Biophysical Society meeting
Turns out that for the set of us going up to the Philadelphia meeting, our grad student Lindsay would be delighted to share her room with you. I've also requested that the society cover your air fare from Chicago and your registration, which I expect they will agree to. We'll be there from Sat morning (2/2/2013) thru Wed afternoon, but if you can't be away that long you could come Sat night and leave Tues night. Sunday is the session for undergrads, where they'd love to have you, and Tues afternoon is the WikiProject Biophysics session. In between, there are all sorts of great talks. You might want to stay for the National Lecture Tues evening, which is by Karolin Luger, who solved the first structure of a nucleosome and is a great speaker and an outstanding woman scientist! Actually 4 of the 6 award winners are female this year, too. I assume you're still interested? Dcrjsr (talk) 02:54, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Featured articles
I got involved with FAs because I wanted to score points in the WikiCup. Bivalvia was my first effort and you were very helpful at the GA sage. To take an article to FAC takes a great deal of time and effort and for it to fail there because few people have become involved with reviewing it would be disappointing.

I was going to suggest that I reviewed Ann Bishop (biologist) but I see you already have all the support you are likely to need there. Would you be able to take a look at Amphibian for me? I have been trying my hand at contributing to reviews and can reciprocate the next time you have a candidate. I guess there is an inverse relationship between the length of an article and the willingness of people to get involved with reviewing it. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 10:24, 28 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey Cwmhiraeth! I'd be happy to review it - probably sometime this weekend, if that's all right. I just need a chunk of a couple hours to sit down with it. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 16:07, 28 November 2012 (UTC)

Parasites
Hi. I noticed that you were looking for a parasitologist a while back. I know a little about this area and would be happy to help if the need arises again. DrMicro (talk) 11:39, 2 December 2012 (UTC)
 * My pleasure. I will get back to you very soon. DrMicro (talk) 12:00, 3 December 2012 (UTC)


 * The page isn't bad but there are a few minor odds and ends.


 * ' Aedes aegypti, a malaria vector, ' - Aedes is not a genus that is able to spread human malaria. It may be able to spread other Plasmodium species and cause malaria in other animals but in general when we say malaria vector without any further qualification we mean a vector capable of spreading human infecting species. If you want a list of these try Taxonomy of Anopheles. It's missing about 100 species - which I really really must get around to putting in. I think all the vectors of human malaria are listed there. If you need a list of human infecting species the Plasmodium page has a link to a page with a list of these.


 * Here it is - Plasmodium_species_infecting_humans_and_other_primates


 * ' having high standards. ' That's nasty as it suggests that her colleagues didn't have high standards. My suggestion would be to rewrite or to eliminate that piece. Although I have never met the woman a remark like that suggests that she wasn't much of a team player for whatever reason. Cambridge may have been a very difficult place for women to work then- I just don't know.


 * 'Honours School of Chemistry.' Might I ask where this place is? Usually a school of chemistry is part of a university. The honours part usually refers to the students undertaking the honours course rather than the ordinary (or pass) degree. Maybe it was different back then??


 * ' [T]wo years ... in 1941, a D.Sc. ' This is probably better in her science career section. The chronology here is a bit of a mess.


 * The piece about the doctorate probably belongs with the PhD


 * ' Malaria vaccine '. Hmm. There are LOTS of people who could make such a claim - some are rather implausible. Either drop this bit or explain how this makes sense. BTW there are some partial malaria vaccines available. None are very good - which is a real pity.


 * Plasmodium can develop resistance to quinine. Its rare but well documented. If you need a ref on this its somewhere in the page on Plasmodium biology - I cant recall exactly where. The mechanism of resistance is not well understood and it hasnt been studied that much in contrast to chloroquine.


 * There are two useful refs on the biology page. Quinine like chloroquine is localised to the digestive vacuole. The ref to resistance is in the section on transport/secretion. It refers to a transporter protein that may be involved in quinine resistance.

Hope this helps. DrMicro (talk) 12:27, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

First article - can use some guidance thx!
Hi Keilana, i just started to edit/create in Wikipedia. I submitted a new (my first) article earlier today (Mary L Foster, Biochemist 1865-1960), a copy is in my sandbox, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Slventura/sandbox There's still work needed on it, but I'm interested to see the complete publishing process thru and learn with this first one. If you have any tips for a newbie that'd be great.

I'm also testing Wikipedia Mobile on IOS and hope to do some editing/contribution over the holidays. I'm particularly interested in supporting the WikiWomen Scientist Project, is there an broader WikiWomen effort to promote work by women past and present, whether it's their work in science, humanities, arts, politics ...

Thanks for the Karolin Luger page!
Thanks very much for starting up a page for Karolin Luger! I've added a nucleosome picture and a journal ref. You might email her to let her know, and ask if she has an open-license photo of herself.Dcrjsr (talk) 21:26, 26 December 2012 (UTC)

Ready for next lesson
Sorry for asking now in case your busy but I'm ready for the next lesson on our adoption page. I haven't been there in awhile so maybe you posted something but I'm going to make some ajustments. RaidenRules! (talk) 00:16, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey Deidra, I did make a couple posts, once you've replied to those I'll be ready to give you the next lesson. :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 01:15, 30 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay. I'm going to go there now. First....can you give me a link to our adoption pg cause I forgot what it was called. RaidenRules! (talk) 01:45, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Yup, it's User:Keilana/Deidra Adoption. :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 01:58, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

plagiarism from adopted user
Just as a heads up, you adopted user Diedra C has been adding material copied verbatim from the source. I've contacted her, but thought you should be made aware as well. -- Daniel (talk)  18:14, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * That's not good, I'll go check it out and talk to her. Thanks for the heads-up. Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 18:55, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Keilana, some of this might indirectly be my fault. On her talk page a week or two ago, I posted a suggestion that she may want to consider working in article space. A discussion ensued that you can view on my talk page if you wish, but apparently she got a book for Christmas related to dogs, and posted some information. She linked it on my talk and I read through it. I don't own the book, but didn't think it was too suspicious, just obviously not from a neutral point of view, which I gently reminded her. Frankly, I'm not that surprised that she may have plagiarized something, perhaps you could make copyright your next adoption lesson. I don't really know how best to handle good-faith contributors like her, but clearly what I tried didn't work too well. -- Go  Phightins  !  20:14, 30 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey, don't worry about it. It was a good suggestion - I've been trying to get her to work in article space and at least she's trying. Copyright will definitely be our next lesson. Thanks :) Keilana&#124;Parlez ici 20:34, 30 December 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to the 2013 WikiCup!
Hello Keilana, and welcome to the 2013 WikiCup! Your submissions' page is here. The competition begins at midnight UTC. The first round will last until the end of February, at which point the top 64 scorers will advance to the second round. We will be in touch at the end of every month, and signups are going to remain open until the end of January; if you know of anyone else who may like to take part, please let them know! A few reminders: *The rules can be found here. There have been a few changes from last year, which are listed on that page. *Anything you submit must have been nominated and promoted in 2013, and you need to have completed significant work upon it in 2013. (The articles you review at good article reviews does not need to have been nominated in 2013, but you do need to have started the review in 2013.) We will be checking. *If you feel that another competitor is breaking the rules or abusing the competition in some way, please let a judge know. Please do not remove entries from the submissions' pages of others yourself. *Don't worry about calculating precisely how many points everything is worth. The bot will do that. The bot may occasionally get something wrong- let a judge know, or post on the WikiCup talk page if that happens. *Please try to be prompt in updating submissions' pages so that they can be double-checked. Overall, however, don't worry, and have fun. It doesn't matter if you make the odd mistake; these things happen. Questions can be asked on the WikiCup talk page. Good luck!

Disambiguation link notification for January 1
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help.
