Calcium citrate

Hi and welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed you maid some edits to the article, calcium citrate. There are a few points I would like to make:

there is no preference regarding the type of English used. There is no need to change perfectly correct AmE spellings to BrE, and vice versa, EXCEPT for the sake of consistency throughout a page.
there is usually no "stub" section; stub tags should exist at the bottom of the page. However, {{sectstub}} refers to the section, rather than the article being a stub, and should remain with the section.

audio recording of We (novel)

Hi, thanks for adding this audio recording to We (novel). The free version is really dreadful. Do you know of a better recording that is free? Also, the site does not name the translator. I think it is Zilboorg, because the recording mentions "United State", which is not used in any of the three translations I have (Ginsburg, Brown, Randall). Do you have a copy of the Zilboorg translation? --Jtir 13:08, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry, unfortunately I am just like you. I search the web for whatever audio files I can and this seems to be the only free one I can find. Whenever I do find something free, I post it so that others may have the chance to enjoy it. Just like you though, I am listening to the free version and the quality is extremely bad. I will keep looking, but I cannot promise anything. If you find anything better please post it :) . Thank you Killer Swath 16:16, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

OK. NP. --Jtir 22:05, 30 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

your suggestions for expanding We (novel)

Hi, both of your suggestions for expanding We (novel) are good ones. However, WP has a policy that says we can't do original research. This means we have to find someone who says what the significance of "energy" and "entropy" are and what the colors mean.

From your contribs I see that you have been adding exlinks to CliffsNotesand similar sites. I looked at the CliffsNotes site and noticed that:

The author of the article is named, but there is no link to more about the author. That makes it difficult to judge the authority of the author.
I do not see a bibliography or any citations.

There is a WP guideline about reliable sources.

BTW, do you have access to the full articles at JSTOR? I regard those articles as excellent sources, but I don't have full access to JSTOR, so at best I can only read the first page and at worst I can only read the citation.
