User talk:Corpet~enwiki

Here are some tips to help you get started:

Read the Tutorial, and feel free to experiment in the Sandbox.
Eventually, you might want to read the Manual of Style and Policies and Guidelines.
If you need help, post a question at the Help Desk or ask me on my talk page.
To sign your name on a talk page, please finish your comments with ~~~~ (four tildes). The wiki will insert a link to your userpage and the timestamp.
Not every subject needs its own page. Sometimes it is wiser to deal with certain subjects together on one page. See Wikipedia:Merge and Wikipedia:Redirect for some background. You may want to review Avoiding common mistakes to get started quickly.
Explore, be bold in editing pages, and, most importantly, have fun!

Good luck! JFW | T@lk 21:28, 19 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Medecine Nouvelle[edit]

Hmmm. Strange page. I doubt this has anything to do with cancer, and more with quacks :-) I would recommend removing the link, but I must admit my French is pretty rusty. JFW | T@lk 17:35, 25 Dec 2004 (UTC)

Thanks for your kind response.

When do you find time to sleep - my wife often asks me the same question :-) I find working on Wikipedia mentally stimulating. I started during a period of unemployment, just after I'd sat a major medical exam MRCP part 1. I found it great to channel all that otherwise forgotten information into Wikipedia.

Aspirin[edit]

In the section of Aspirin under cancer research, could you please add a more specific link at the end of your paragraph? The original colon paragraph I wrote listed the epidemiological studies (and the links are specific if someone wanted to read for instance who did the study and how, how many people, results, etc) and your new information is talking about empirical studies. For instance, could there be a footnote link for at least one of the 4 human studies and at least one (most significant) rat or mouse study? The chemo-site has a lot of info, but where would a reader go if they only wanted to read about specifically the four human volunteer studies (or wanted to know if there was more than 10 volunteers, for example)? At the end of the paragraph there could be a sentence saying something like, more info on similar studies can be found here (chemo-site link). Gaviidae 19:13, 29 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Gaviidae, I've seen your post, and will work on the Aspirin page when I have some time: this week-end likely Corpet 10:07, 2 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi again Gaviidae, I've attempted to edit the Aspirin & CRC prevention, following your advices. I am not very happy of the style: would you be so kind to re-edit it, please? The double link to "Chemoprevention database" is heavy, but it does not refer to the same page, and, as you told me, people may have difficulties to specifically find the "aspirin" data in the database.

If you look, you'll see what I did with the Baron study (28 Feb). I did a pub-med style reference. Ideally, we'd have a pub-med of one or maybe two of the best rat/mouse studies. I think somewhere I saw that you've published. You can see the format I used if you go to edit. However, my edit did take away some of your earlier information-- I think a pub-med ref can re-add it without looking too clunky-- as you can see, if we use a published study of yours, then the only external link will be one to your main database -- the studies will be cute little ref-numbers (clicking on one takes you to the bottom of the page where all the studies are listed. Clicking on the pub med link takes the reader to the actual study).

Also, when rat/mouse studies are listed, I think (after reading only one of them) that the main article text must say WHEN the aspirin worked. It seems in the case of the rats it was more preventative, and seemed to have the most effect "from before birth up to weaning" (a long-term preventative, working less on adults).

And, there is no problem with double linking if they actually go to different pages. Another wikipedian to ask for further info is Dr Ruben. He's the one who showed me how to make cool <refs>. Cheers, Gaviidae 14:59, 28 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Your account will be renamed[edit]

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Corpet. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Corpet~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation
