CCI update

Case closed! FYI: I nuked his userspace where there were copies of the timeline articles and some other stuff. --MER-C 17:04, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

@MER-C: Thanks for the update! You weren't kidding about "the pain that is CCI". The scale of what needs doing at CCI boggles the mind. I don't know how you, Money, et al. have kept the faith. Ajpolino (talk) 17:09, 21 October 2020 (UTC)

Another down, far too many to go. MER-C 18:55, 21 November 2020 (UTC)

Unfortunately this one isn't quite over yet... see Wikipedia:Sockpuppet_investigations/Walidou47. The sock racked up a couple hundred edits and had already gotten some warnings for unattributed copying - I don't really know what the procedures for this are but it might be worthwhile to reopen the CCI. Spicy (talk) 20:05, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Oh boy, nothing gold can stay, and nothing rotten goes away. @Moneytrees: I assume this has happened before. If a user that earned a CCI returns as a sock, do you prefer a new CCI page or adding to the old one? Thanks Spicy for the notification, and good catch! Ajpolino (talk) 20:09, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Would this be where I add my routine notification to Barkeep49 about Spicy and RFA :) :) :) Sheesh, what a pest that SandyGeorgia can be! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:12, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Spicy, In cases like this reverting all of the socks edits is what I do. A systemic review of their contributions probably isn't worth the time. Moneytrees🏝️^{Talk🌴Help out at CCI!} 20:15, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

I had that thought but a lot of their edits are simply removing unsourced info, which isn't problematic from a copyright perspective. Not a bad idea to just revert the stuff they added though. Thanks, Spicy (talk) 20:24, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Yeah I misspoke, just revert the edits that add significant text, other gnoming and fixes can be ignored, unless they run afoul of your med guidelines, which I know some Walidou edits did. Moneytrees🏝️^{Talk🌴Help out at CCI!} 20:31, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

If you can't revert or delete G5, then send it to Wikipedia:Copyright problems for presumptive deletion per Wikipedia:Copyright violations#Addressing contributors and I will delete it after a week. We waste enough time as it is on copyvio sockpuppeteers. (We typically recycle CCI pages because we're green.) MER-C 20:01, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

I've pestered them a time or two myself. Best, Barkeep49 (talk) 20:51, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Thank you today for Buruli ulcer, introduced: "Ga speakers in southern Ghana have two words for skin wounds: fla for "normal" wounds that heal in weeks to months, and aboabone for "abnormal" wounds that linger and sometimes never heal. More recently we've taken to calling these "abnormal" wounds Buruli ulcer. What begins with a bacterial skin infection can become an enormous yet painless open ulcer."! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 06:52, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Thank you very much Sandy. All the same to you and your family. After a rough year, I think we're all ready for a brighter 2021. I hope you're having a restful and fulfilling Christmas. Ajpolino (talk) 21:03, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Merry Christmas

File:Christmas tree in field.jpg	Merry Christmas Ajpolino/Archives
	Hi Ajpolino/Archives, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous New Year, Thanks for all your contributions to Wikipedia this past year, like this tree, you are a light shining in the darkness. Onel5969 TT me 12:07, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

@Onel5969: Thank you very much for the message. Warm wishes to you as well for Christmas and for a better 2021. I hope you're feeling fully recovered from your illness. Work has kept me so busy this month, I've yet to find the time to deploy all the NPP tips and tricks I picked up from you all. Hoping I'll get more time to help out in the New Year. Try not to clear the queue before then (or at least leave me a few biology articles)! All the best, Ajpolino (talk) 21:09, 25 December 2020 (UTC)

Ajpolino, will try to leave one or two for you, but it's the other fellas who are doing the lion's share of the work... was nice meeting you via zoom (or whatever we used). Onel5969 ^{TT me} 02:21, 27 December 2020 (UTC)

possible copyright violation

Could you have a look at the article Aseity? It had for several years the following passage taken from here:

In its "negative" meaning, which emerged first in the history of thought, it affirms that God is uncaused, depending on no other being for the source of God's existence. In its "positive" meaning, it affirms that God is completely self-sufficient, having within Himself the sufficient reason for His own existence.

I'm not sure whether this constitutes a copyright violation since the source was cited but it wasn't marked as a quote. I turned it into a quote with my last edit. I think it was added in this edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Phlsph7 (talk • contribs) 17:12, 15 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi Phlsph7 yes, it was indeed a copyright violation best I can tell. You've "fixed" it by making it explicit that we're quoting from the cited source. We are permitted to use relatively short, attributed, snippets of copyrighted text, but the rules (and the law, I assume?) are fairly vague on how much is "too much". Our current guidance on the topic is here. On a broader note, I'll admit our guidance on copyright is substantial, wordy, and spread over several pages. Some day I'd like to try to clarify and consolidate some of it. So if you run into parts that are particularly inscrutable, feel free to drop a note here so I can remember where to focus. Also I'm not always the quickest on-site responder so if you see other copyright problems, you're always welcome to post them at Wikipedia:Copyright problems where you may get an experienced set of eyes a bit more quickly. I hope you're staying well! Ajpolino (talk) 18:40, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for having a look and for making me aware of Wikipedia:Copyright problems. Phlsph7 (talk) 04:05, 18 January 2021 (UTC)

Wname1

I'm sorry but Wname1 is not new. Have a look at the history of their talk page (they like to delete any warnings and block notifications). --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 23:42, 16 January 2021 (UTC)

Hi John Maynard Friedman, thanks for the note. ~500 sporadic edits in a year, almost all to one page is still "new" in my book. I see Wname1 hasn't exactly been making friends where they've edited, hence the warning. We'll see if they're able to shape up. Ajpolino (talk) 17:37, 17 January 2021 (UTC)

Side-by-side tables

See Help:Table and especially Help talk:Table.

There are people with various levels of expertise that drop in to help on the talk page. And I prefer answering there too. Since it helps more people.

I may not have much time now at the moment though. --Timeshifter (talk) 21:30, 2 February 2021 (UTC)

Thank you very much for the note! I'll head there next time (unfortunately there will almost certainly be a next time). Hope you're well! Ajpolino (talk) 02:44, 3 February 2021 (UTC)

Buruli ulcer

Buruli ulcer has been tentatively scheduled to run as a TFA in March. This means that it needs a blurb writing. Normally I would do this, but given its technical nature I wanted to give you, and possibly Project Medicine more generally, first refusal. If for whatever reason you don't fancy it, I am entirely happy to produce a draft for you to check over in the normal manner. Cheers. Gog the Mild (talk) 14:57, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

AJ, see Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates/Dementia with Lewy bodies/archive1 for sample. You would put that at Wikipedia talk:Featured article candidates/Buruli ulcer/archive1, which I have watchlisted. Instructions for the blurb are:

For Featured Articles promoted on or after January 1, 2016, copy in the blurb that appears on the talk page of the FAC nomination (that's the page linked from "it has been identified" at the top of the article's talk page), save it, and then edit as needed. For older FAs, you're welcome to create your own TFA text as a summary of the lead section, or you can ask for assistance at WT:TFAR. We use one paragraph only, with no reference tags or alternative names; the only thing bolded is the first link to the article title. The length when previewed is between 925 and 1025 characters including spaces and the " (Full article...)", or more when no free-use image can be found. Fair use images are not allowed.

SandyGeorgia (Talk) 15:06, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks Gog the Mild and SandyGeorgia, I'll take a crack at it this weekend or next week. Ajpolino (talk) 16:50, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

What is going on and Why

Hello AJ i was the one who recently made a bunch of changes on the psychosis page. I did not expect all of my words to stick, but did not expect none of them to stick. I am very upset with the information written about the topic that is on the page, as you may have seen in the talk section.

I just made an account today, am new to Wikipedia, and . I believe you sent me a message saying: everything needs to be cited. As stated, I am new to the community here. Isnt it true that not all wikipedia pages need cites for every little bit of information?

Additionally, I am very knowledgeable about the topic. My words may have been strange/odd but a good bunch of the information I wrote is accurate, and more accurate than the info already on there.

I appreciate you reaching out to me about all of this. How can we move forward from here? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mark Bilanzic (talk • contribs) 18:56, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi Mark Bilanzic, thanks for reaching out here. I just replied to your message at Talk:Psychosis#This_"psychosis"_page_is_misinformation/misleading. Put briefly, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia that intends to summarize what mainstream sources say about various topics. If you feel the mainstream is dead wrong about something, that's certainly a problem worth fixing, but it's not Wikipedia's problem to fix. Once the mainstream view on a topic changes, Wikipedia's coverage will change as well. Happy to discuss further either here or at that talk page. Ajpolino (talk) 19:06, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Copyvio

Colin indicates here that this edit from MongolWikipedian is a copyvio. I am traveling, this may also need to be checked and appropriate guidance issued to MongolWikipedian. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 17:20, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi SG, I'll probably be offline this weekend, or at least until Sunday evening. So if no one else gets to this, I'll look into it Sunday or Monday. Have a great weekend! Ajpolino (talk) 18:38, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

Colin cleaned it up, so you can revdel it when you get back ... we are having a great weekend, enjoying the weather and a nice jaunt to get away, hope you are too! SandyGeorgia (Talk) 20:29, 12 March 2021 (UTC)

Hello Colin, and (talk) I do not understand why my stuff about Pancreas and low carb diet removed? I mean there was a study saying low carb decreases risks of Pancreatic cancer. The source I had was oxford academic.oup.com I don't think its a bad source. Perhaps I worded it too unneutral? — Preceding unsigned comment added by MongolWikipedian (talk • contribs) 01:23, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

MongolWikipedian please read WP:COPYVIO; text added to Wikipedia must be rephrased in our own words. We cannot just copy someone else’s words (they have the copyright). SandyGeorgia (Talk) 01:44, 13 March 2021 (UTC)

 Done Checked contributions and removed copyright violating text at Neurobiological effects of physical exercise as well. Everything else is clear. I think I'm caught up on copyvio requests now, so someone will have to ping me if I forgot about them. Ajpolino (talk) 08:06, 31 March 2021 (UTC)

Dead link bot

Do you think it would be possible to have a bot remove dead links that are contained within "cite journal" and "cite book" templates that have an identifier like ISBN, DOI, PMID, etc.? I think I read somewhere that a URL isn't necessary if an identifier is used, and this type of dead link seems to make up a significant portion of the Medicine WikiProject's dead links. Velayinosu (talk) 01:14, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Also, Bokeloh bat lyssavirus may have had a copyright violation if you look at my recent edit there. Velayinosu (talk) 01:29, 22 March 2021 (UTC)

Hi Velayinosu, yes that would be great. The place to request such a thing is Wikipedia:Bot requests. Real life is filling my time this week (unfortunately), but I'll gladly put together such a request this weekend if you don't beat me to it. It'd be a nice morale boost to knock a few thousand off the insane 251,000 articles in Category:All articles with dead external links!

Also, I suspect you're right. Good catch! I've hidden the offending revisions there. Feel free to drop a note if you ever come across any others.

Most importantly, I'm not sure we've directly interacted before. So a much-belated welcome! I'm glad to see another microbiology-interested editor around. We're far too few around here and there's much to do. If there's every any way I can help with whatever you're working on just let me know. Otherwise I'll see you around. I hope you're staying well. Best, Ajpolino (talk) 04:11, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Buruli ulcer

Thank you for your work on today's featured article, Buruli ulcer. Following the kerfuffle, I wanted to reach out and say that I liked that someone decided to work on such an unrepresented topic among Wikipedia's FAs, like tropical diseases on developing regions. For some it may seem obscure, but I think it is a welcome deviation from all the coverage of "Anglo world" topics (without belittling anyone's work, I admire all FA contributors). I hope to see more of you! RetiredDuke (talk) 17:07, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

@RetiredDuke: Thank you for the note! I'm glad to hear you liked it. I certainly enjoyed reading/writing about it. Regarding today's kerfuffle, seems like no lasting harm done. As I said elsewhere, the mainpage is not my normal stomping ground, so the effect of the image there didn't even cross my mind until today when folks started airing their discomfort.

Regarding tropical diseases of developing regions, the World Health Organization maintains a list of such "neglected tropical diseases". Buruli ulcer was first alphabetically on the list. Second is Chagas disease, which a few of us overhauled at FARC last year. So hopefully next you'll be seeing Chikungunya on the main page! As with many things, finding time is the trick. So I don't advise holding your breath. Anyway, most importantly, I hope you're staying well during these crazy times. Thanks again for the note. I hope I'll be seeing you around as well. Ajpolino (talk) 06:28, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

No problem, it's just that we never know how an editor is taking things on the other side of the screen. Glad to know that you took it in stride. I'm also glad that you have a general idea for article improvement going forward, no matter how much time that might take. Wikipedia can always benefit from the contributions of knowledgeable editors - and well, those are some very unfortunate medical conditions on the neglected tropical diseases article; the kind of reality everybody is vaguely aware of, but could use the reminder in the form of a high-quality article. I hope you are also staying well in these troubling times, that's the most important in all of this. RetiredDuke (talk) 11:30, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

Re: Medicine articles with dead links

Thank you for paying attention and for writing me. I agree it's particularly important to fix citations in the medical area, and I expect I'll be fixing many because I'm starting from PubMedCentral citations after having added thousands of IDs with OAbot.

I'm not sure however they will be the same broken URLs listed by the category you queried: for instance the edit you noticed has removed an URL which currently fails with an HTTPS error (OUP is infamous for breaking many DOIs too), but was not marked as broken yet.

From a list of thousands of articles it's pretty hard to divine what might be the patterns to correct. I would suggest you to either make requests for specific domains or patterns at User talk:Citation bot, or to ask help to identify such patterns. For instance, someone can query the XML dumps with mwparserfromhell or similar tools and extract some statistics on the domains used in the URL parameters of citation templates with certain characteristics.

In general, the solution for this problem is only prevention: people and tools need to always prefer persistent identifiers, and if necessary work a bit harder to add them, while discarding all non-persistent URLs (including all publisher URLs except DOIs). This is an unpopular opinion, but there's really no other way we're going to keep up with maintenance of millions of URLs. In the medical field alone, articles get superseded, withdrawn or corrected all the time: with a DOI we can imagine ways to handle such cases quite fast, but with the current mess it's nearly impossible.

Class 3 transposable elements

Hello. I strongly apologise to bother you, but if you do not mind, I would like to ask a question regarding the article Transposable element. I believe it should include some information on the so-called Class III TEs (see: Pierre Capy et al., Dynamics and Evolution of Transposable Elements, 1998).

• E.g. some papers refer to MITEs as Class III: Multigenome analysis implicates miniature inverted-repeat transposable elements (MITEs) in metabolic diversification in eudicots.
• Another example may be Foldback (FB) elements, see e.g.: The transposable elements of the Drosophila melanogaster euchromatin: a genomics perspective.
• John Baez (2017) described Class III TEs as a grab-bag consisting of transposons that don't clearly fit into the other two categories, and added: Examples include the "Foldback" elements in fruit flies, the "Tu" elements in sea urchins, and "MITEs", or "miniature inverted repeat transposable elements", which are found mainly in plants and fungi.

If you find some time, could you briefly describe Class III TEs, please? Since you are an expert in the field of molecular biology and an experienced Wikipedia user, I decided to rely on your knowledge here. Thank you very much. Kind regards, --Pinoczet (talk) 15:30, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

Hi @Pinoczet: thank you for thinking of me. I'll add a note on this to my to do list, but it's a long list already, so it may take me a long while to get to it. From a glance at your talk page, it looks like TobyBrann may get to it before me and may be better suited to look into this topic. If you have general questions about editing or need a hand on some particular article, you may also consider asking at one of the relevant WikiProjects (in this case WP:WikiProject Molecular Biology) or at WP:TEAHOUSE. Best of luck. I hope all is well. Ajpolino (talk) 22:26, 23 September 2021 (UTC)

PANDAS

PANDAS has entire advocacy websites devoted to it, and IPs have been hitting the article; should we upgrade the protection for 30 days? The last I know is it is not recognized in DSM-5, and is still highly controversial:

• PMID 28498087
• PMID 31111754

Protection might get the IPs to come to talk to explain what sources they are using to say otherwise. Best regards to you, SandyGeorgia (Talk) 23:30, 11 November 2021 (UTC)

Huh, I'm continually surprised by when page views spike for a given page. Perhaps that means I'm out of touch... Anyway, I took a quick glance through some PANDAS sources, but found them a bit of a confusing mess. If there's some particular section or task I can help with at that page, just give me a holler and I'll do my best. Ajpolino (talk) 15:55, 24 November 2021 (UTC)

Based on the sources Colin just posted to talk (which confirms that in the UK and Nordic countries there is an advocacy situation similar to what is occurring in the US and Canada), I suspect the topic (and the article) will need a steady admin hand and a watchful eye over the coming years, as the differences (as Gilbert describes) play out in the journals.
