For the Grave's disease article
Notice that when you use the same reference several times, you can use multiple citations of the same reference or footnote. But don't worry - there are bots that pass by and fix that sooner or later as well. Mikael Häggström (talk) 05:25, 18 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Thanks! I was wondering about that... I will work further on the Graves' disease article in the following weeks, still have a lot of reference material to use. Starvee44 (talk) 13:41, 18 April 2010 (UTC)

File permission problem with File:Robert J Graves.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Robert J Graves.jpg. I noticed that while you provided a valid copyright licensing tag, there is no proof that the creator of the file agreed to license it under the given license.

 * Send an email from an address associated with the original publication to , stating your ownership of the material and your intention to publish it under a free license. You can find a sample permission letter here. If you take this step, add OTRS pending to the file description page to prevent premature deletion.

If you did not create it entirely yourself, please ask the person who created the file to take one of the two steps listed above, or if the owner of the file has already given their permission to you via email, please forward that email to .

If you believe the media meets the criteria at Non-free content, use a tag such as or one of the other tags listed at File copyright tags, and add a rationale justifying the file's use on the article or articles where it is included.

Copy and paste
Have come across an issue at Graves' disease.

The text in this book "Patients with Graves’ disease are nutritionally depleted in proportion to the duration and severity of their illness. Until metabolism is restored to normal, and for some time afterward, the caloric and protein requirements of the patient may be well above normal. Specific vitamin deficiences may exist, and multivitamin supplementation is indicated. The intake of calcium should be above normal."

Is exactly the same as text you added to our article in 2010 in this edit "Graves' disease patients are nutritionally depleted in proportion to the duration and severity of their illness. Until metabolism is restored to normal, and for some time afterward, caloric and protein requirements may be well above normal. Specific vitamin deficiences may exist, and multivitamin supplementation is indicated. The intake of calcium should be above normal. All in all, the physician should pay heed to the patient's emotional needs, as well as to his or her requirements for rest, nutrition, and specific antithyroid medication."

Even though you referenced the source in question this is not allowed per copyright. Thus I have unfortunately had to take the measure of reverting back to before you began contributing. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) (if I write on your page reply on mine) 00:17, 3 January 2013 (UTC)

ArbCom elections are now open!
