Redirects

On 31-Mar, you created a "soft" redirect from Deoxythymidine to Thymidine. You should do a real redirect in cases like this. The instructions for how are at Wikipedia:Redirect. I've fixed this one, but if you need help in the future, let me know. Thanks! -- JLaTondre 16:12, 2 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Citations

Hej! Great work on expanding the thymidine kinase article! In case you haven't already seen this, check out the template filler tool. Given a PMID, you can quickly create a fully formatted {{cite journal}} template that can be directly copied and pasted into a Wikipedia article. Using this tool can save you a lot of work and insure that citations are displayed in a consistent way. MVH Boghog2 (talk) 19:57, 20 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I made a couple of edits about these kinases (see my edit history). You are very welcome to correct me or add something.Biophys (talk) 20:13, 25 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Updating strategies

I have started updating the article on thymidine kinase (I have taken as my special duty to keep the information on this enzyme updated, as you may see). A question about the strategy, as there are several publications relevant to the topic: Should I make the updates one by one directly on Wikipedia (as I started) or should I download the text to a word processing sheet and make all the updating there to upload this sheet in one go after the updating is ready? This may save space on the server, as the number of old versions to be saved will be much less, and also save time as the time for uploading after each change is considerable, but also make it less clear what has been changed. I stop this up-dating for now until I get an answer. Lave (talk) 17:23, 4 July 2011 (UTC) Lave[reply]

Translating new Terms of Use

Hi, I tried to translate the new Terms document. It was quite some work, but when I finished I found that I was not on the site of Wikipedia, but on the site of Wikimedia. I found my translation on the translate page, but I have no password to Wikimedia, so I was not logged in. Therefore the translation obviously does not go public, my work is lost! Can it be saved??

Technical editing problems

I have a half ready article about thymidine kinase in clinical chemistry (the article "Thymidine Kinase" is too heavy and should be reduced somewhat). I wrote a text and marked the places where to place references with numbers and also made a separate list of references. When merging these in the sanbox I gtried to copy the references into their places in the text I had prepared. this went well through half the document, then I got a blue window saying "Sorry ...". I can edit the text, but it is impossible to copy anything into it. I use browser "Chrome", it is normally working without problems (Microsoft Edge is never).

Disambiguation link notification for February 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Thymidine kinase in clinical chemistry, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Serum and Plasma. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

No, this is a good reminder. I have corrected to the right pages, Lave (talk) 21:59, 26 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
