Hello, Rcaspi. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about in the page MetaCyc, you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a COI may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:


 * avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, company, organization or competitors;
 * propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (see the request edit template);
 * disclose your COI when discussing affected articles (see WP:DISCLOSE);
 * avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see WP:SPAM);
 * do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.

In addition, you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation (see WP:PAID).

Also please note that editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you.

Gram capitalisation
Hi Rcaspi,

Just a heads-up that "gram-negative" and similar are not incorrect. Please see Gram_stain. There are also multiple converstations at Talk:Gram stain. Cheers, Adrian J. Hunter(talk•contribs) 02:49, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I came here to say the same. If HC Gram was upset (per your edit summaries), he'd have a lot of shouting to do. Here's the Google NGrams search from 1980 on. Some style guides recommend the lowercase for the adjective form (i.e. "gram-negative bacteria" vs. "Gram stain"), others go uppercase all the way. I did a little Googling a few years ago and couldn't find anything on how the difference came about *shrug*. Anyway, I hope you're staying well. Ajpolino (talk) 19:22, 19 March 2021 (UTC)
