Yeshu article

Hi Josh

Are you still interested in cleaning up the Yeshu article? Jayjg 14:45, 24 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Fructose

That was a quick revision! Your article still have some major errors, especially the rate of fructose metabolism. It goes forward much faster than glucose (sucrose is not a substrate for phosphorylation). I still want to expand the text. Fructose consumption in the US is quite high and it is very likely that this is involved in the massive weight increase seen during the past decade. Fructose production is not from fruit but from isomerization of glucose in corn syrup. This has become a major source of this sugar and extra caloric intake. I will switch back to my version if we cannot find another solution.

TeXnicalities

At square root, you seem to have written:

{\sqrt {2}}7

It's not TeX's fault that the radical failed to cover the entire numeral; what you needed is this:

{\sqrt {27}}

Sorry -- that was someone else.

But this one's from a paragraph apparently created by you: You wrote [[rational number|rational numbers]] where you could have written [[rational number]]s. That has the same effect; in particular, the whole phrase, including any letters after the right brackets, appear in blue (or whatever color your browser is using for links). And you did the same with algebraic numbers and perfect squares. Similarly you can write [[apocrypa]]l and [[Rusia]]n, etc. Michael Hardy 20:46, 5 Sep 2004 (UTC)

5-HT

Thanks for the subediting of serotonin - I was getting carried away with the content and forgetting about my spelling and grammar for a moment there! Techelf 11:37, 20 Sep 2004 (UTC)

-cide

You removed this line from death : "In the English language, different kinds of death are classified by the suffix -cide." Why ? Jay 08:01, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

Multi-Licensing FAQ - Lots of questions answered
Multi-Licensing Guide
Free the Rambot Articles Project

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:

OR

Option 2

I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)

DNA Base Pairing image

Hi Deelkar. As detailed at Talk:Nucleobase, there are several errors in Image:DNAbasePairing.png Josh Cherry 14:30, 15 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I just optimised the filesize, I don't have enough biochemic knowledge to correct the errors. --Deelkar (talk) 07:43, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

So how do we go about getting it fixed? I don't know whom to contact. Josh Cherry 17:39, 16 Jan 2005 (UTC)

I contacted User:G3pro about it, he uploaded the original jpeg version: Image:DNAbasePairing.jpg --Deelkar (talk) 08:55, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Moved the entire discussion here for clarity --Deelkar (talk) 08:55, 17 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Amino Acid revert

Hi, you reverted this text "They are the basic self-replicating building blocks of all life on Earth (and probably beyond). It is the most commonly found self-organizing and replicating molecule." out of Amino acid, which is fine, aa's are certinally not self replicating. However recall the Miller-Urey experiment in which amino acids were formed de novo. Is it worth mentioning this in the article? Onco p53 05:42, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Nazarene article

Hi. As you've edited the Nazarene article in the past, I was wondering if you could take a look at it again. An anonymous IP editor has been persistently attempting to re-write it in what I consider to be an highly POV and unattributed way. Any comments etc. would be welcome there. Jayjg ^(talk) 15:40, 13 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Can you think of any way of solving the impasse? They seem very devoted to their version. Jayjg ^(talk) 18:48, 15 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Tyops

Thanks for the help on mitochondrion. I can be so messy when I don't pay enough attention. – Clockwork Soul 00:52, 19 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Zoroastrian

Please be bold in editing this out of History of Christianity - I don't know enough to include it in a NPOV way but from what I read at the bookstore over the weekend - the influence is believed by some - but based on is way to far. Trödel|talk 00:12, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Reverts at Indo-European languages

Hi Josh,
Thanks for helping keep Indo-European languages vandalism-free! Just so you know, you've made your maximum three reverts allowed in 24 hours to that page, so if he comes back, let someone else revert him. There's an RfC about this user going on here: Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Zivinbudas in case you want to comment. --Angr/_comhrá 06:02, 22 May 2005 (UTC)[reply]

verses

Hiya,

you recently voted to delete John 20:16

Uncle G has made a wider proposal covering a much larger group of verses.

would you be prepared to make a similar vote at Wikipedia:Votes for deletion/Individual Bible verses, which covers the full list of verses in Uncle G's suggestion?

WIKIPEDIA ABUSE Ril, (81.156.177.21). Wetman?

Ril has been causing problems at Authentic Matthew. Please help us to resolve.

RIL - M.O.

1) Sock Puppet redirects and hopes nobody notices - Article Gone.

2) SP starts edit war-victim gives up - Article Gone.

3) Later new SP 'merges' and redirects - Article Gone

4) New SP starts edit war - Article Gone

5) If all fails, SP puts up Vfd and makes false statements against his victim often getting THE VICTIM BLOCKED.

PLEASE STUDY THE 'EDIT HISTORY' OF THIS ARTICLE, RIL and 81.156.177.21 for the facts speak for themselves. --Mikefar 05:08, 15 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Actually, the above is one of the numerous sockpuppets of the article's creator - User:Melissadolbeer - see the user's edit history, and Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Melissadolbeer for details. The article in question is Melissadolbeer's original research based on an account by Jerome which is almost universally considered to be an error confusing 3 different gospels (Gospel of the Nazarenes, Gospel of the Hebrews, and Gospel of the Ebionites). It also contains material presenting Eusebius's views of what was Biblical Canon - better discussed at those two articles, and the entire source text of the alleged Gospel, which is otherwise almost universally split into the 3 seperate texts above. The source text was already on WikiSource, and what was salvagable from the remainder of the article was merged to the above 5 articles, and Gospel of Matthew, at the suggestion of User:Wetman. It exists only to support Melissadolbeer's original research thesis. Melissadolbeer's claims of abuse against me, 81.156.177.21, doc, Slrubenstien, etc. are simply down to the fact that we have at one time or another merged the article elsewhere leaving only a redirect, or have voted to delete it at VFD. The above comment by the sockpuppet has been pasted by it into a vast number of user pages, an act which essentially constitutes excessive disruption to Wikipedia, simply because Melissadolbeer refuses to abide by the process of VFD. ~~~~ 19:15, 15 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Cellular respiration flowchart

Thanks for your feedback on my image! Exactly how should I change it so the bit about glucose and glycerol is correct? I'll change it as soon as I know what it should be. Cheers, bdesham 03:43, 22 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

HAARP

Josh, I noticed that you had commented on the ionosphere article and that you have a truly impressive and renaissance set of contributions to this project. The High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program article needs attention - there's a lot of ionospheric research vs. conspiracy theory issues that are ongoing. I figure the more informed people who contribute and/or edit, the better the quality of the article will be. Thanks! John Elder 11:53, 23 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
