Draft
Thank you for your recent contributions. Getting started creating new articles on Wikipedia can be tricky, and you might like to try creating a draft version first, which you can then ask for feedback on if necessary, without the risk of speedy deletion. Do make sure you also read help available to you, including Your First Article and the Tutorial. You might also like to try the Article Wizard, which has an option to create a draft version. Thank you. Since this is your first article and you are not yet familiar with the guidelines or wiki markup, drafting would be advised. You could look at the guidelines and other similar articles, and when you are confident that it meets wikipedia's standards for inclusion, you could ask for feedback either from me or from the feedback request page at WP:FEED. Hope this helps.  Giftiger Wunsch    [TALK]  13:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

Manuelcorpas (talk) 13:35, 3 June 2010 (UTC)Thanks very much for your advice. I will create a draft page. Please could you remove the entry I just created?

Manuelcorpas (talk) 13:44, 3 June 2010 (UTC)It seems that my entry meet all the requirements except the cut and paste. Not sure how to go about this. I'll keep reading.
 * I can't remove this myself as only sysops can delete pages, but since it is still marked for speedy deletion it should be removed soon. Since you are the only major contributor, blanking the page means the article can also be deleted under G7 now, as an implicit request by the only contributor. Let me know if you have any questions about drafting the article.  Giftiger Wunsch    [TALK]  13:57, 3 June 2010 (UTC)

17q21.3 Recurrent Microdeletion
Hi Manuel. I'm an administrator here on WP and I also work at WTSI. Alex mentioned the copyright issues you were having to me today, so I thought I would have a look at it. I think one email to OTRS releasing the copyright of the DECIPHER content should be fine. If you need help drafting that, let me know. When it is approved, it will be important to make sure the OTRS ticket is linked from the talk page of each new article.

I also had a look over your article draft and it is in pretty good shape. I made a few minor changes to keep things consistent with the manual of style and also dejargonized a few terms that are commenplace for us geneticists, but not always obvious to laypeople. The one section that needs work is the "origin of deletion". Its pretty incomprehensible at the moment, I'm not even sure I fully understand it enough to try and make it clearer!

Finally, to maintain the editing history of your draft, it would be better to move it to mainspace rather than cut and paste the text across when your OTRS ticket has been approved. That will proably require administrator tools (because the article already exists). I can do that for you if you let me know when it is ready. Otherwise, feel free to drop me a message or email (here or at WTSI) at any time if you need any help or assistance with this project. Good luck! Rockpock e  t  17:44, 4 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks very much for your kind offer Rockpock  e  t, and for making the changes. I have already sent the email to OTRS, maybe if you send me an email to my WTSI account I can forward it to you (as I'm not sure who you are ;-)).


 * I think before I make it public I would like our Clinician Expert to have a look. Also, I would like to know whether it is possible to add in the Infobox disease a link to the correspnding DECIPHER entry. Would this be OK? What would we need to do to add the link? Cheers! Manuelcorpas (talk) 06:05, 5 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I've emailed you ;) I've also proposed DECIPHER be added to the infobox, see Template talk:Infobox disease. I'll give it some time for discussion, to make sure there are no objections. If not, then I'll add the code. Rockpock  e  t  10:23, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi Manuel. Your userspace version of 17q21.3 recurrent microdeletion syndrome has now been moved across to article space, since OTRS has approved the license. For any future DECIPHER syndrome content, make sure the following template is placed on the talkpage:

Non-free files in your user space
Hey there Manuelcorpas, thank you for your contributions. I am a bot, alerting you that non-free files are not allowed in user or talk space. I removed some files I found on User:Manuelcorpas/Sandbox. In the future, please refrain from adding fair-use files to your user-space drafts or your talk page.


 * See a log of files removed today here.


 * Shut off the bot here.


 * Report errors here.

Thank you, -- DASHBot (talk) 05:08, 10 August 2010 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Iscb logo.png
 Thanks for uploading File:Iscb logo.png. 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 orphaned, meaning that it is 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).

PLEASE NOTE:


 * I am a bot, and will therefore not be able to answer your questions.
 * I will remove the request for deletion if the file is used in an article once again.
 * If you receive this notice after the image is deleted, and you want to restore the image, click here to file an un-delete request.
 * To opt out of these bot messages, add  to your talk page.
 * If you believe the bot has made an error, please turn it off here and leave a message on my owner's talk page.

Thank you. DASHBot (talk) 05:40, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for File:Iscb logo.png
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Iscb logo.png. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 00:07, 26 August 2010 (UTC)

COSMIC logo
Hi Manuel, when you uploaded the COSMIC logo, you used a filename "picture 20" that was already being used for another image. I've reverted the file back to that image and removed the logo from the article. Would you be able to upload it again, using a more specific filename? If you need help, let me know. Rockpock e  t  12:00, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * I've uploaded it again myself, to File:COSMIC logo.png. Rockpock  e  t  18:05, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

COSMIC cancer database
Hi. I've nominated COSMIC cancer database, an article you worked on, for consideration to appear on the Main Page as part of Did you know. You can see the hook for the article here, where you can improve it if you see fit. Rockpock e  t  17:34, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
 * FYI, the COSMIC DYK will be on the front page on 10th September between 1 and 7pm. Well done. Rockpock  e  t  12:22, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of International Society for Computational Biology Student Council


A tag has been placed on International Society for Computational Biology Student Council requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Evaders99 (talk) 02:42, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Rost 2006 processed500x500.tif


A tag has been placed on File:Rost 2006 processed500x500.tif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement.

Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.

If you think that the page was nominated in error, contest the nomination by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion" in the speedy deletion tag. Doing so will take you to the talk page where you can explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but 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 yourself, but do not hesitate to add information that is consistent with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you.  Ron h jones (Talk) 21:25, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification for February 10
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Burkhard Rost, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Long Beach (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ* Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

 * It's a bad idea to write about yourself.
 * You haven't created correct disambiguation.Xx236 (talk) 11:19, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Manuelcorpas (talk) 11:21, 18 November 2016 (UTC) Absolutely, it is not my intention to write about myself. But it is not correct either that the entry to Manuel Corpas redirects to "Manny Corpas" wikipedia page.
 * John Smith lists plenty names, but it doesn't list 99% of people, imagine all those people editing John Smith?Xx236 (talk) 11:24, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
 * As a scienist you are able to find if such disambiguation is correct. Xx236 (talk) 11:31, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Manuelcorpas (talk) 11:33, 18 November 2016 (UTC) except that my work has been cited in one of the most important pages in the field Human Genome. Is this notable enough?


 * I'm writing about the disambiguation, which isn't correct. Xx236 (talk) 11:37, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Manuelcorpas (talk) 11:39, 18 November 2016 (UTC) Please could you point me to the right way of doing this?
