The article Geir Bjørklund has been proposed for deletion because under Wikipedia policy, all biographies of living persons created after March 18, 2010, must have at least one source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't take offense. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners or ask at Wikipedia:Help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within ten days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. CrossTempleJay talk 10:48, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
Developing your user page - it is easy
[edit]Wikipedia is a megalopolis and like in any city, interactions are very important. I recommend that you develop your user page so that people who visit your page may know your interests and share in them. It could be a single line telling others of not only your name but what you like or a complex page with every single thing that interests you on it. This is a great way of building up work groups that facilitate the sharing of expert knowledge on articles, talks etc. Happy building!!! CrossTempleJay talk 11:01, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
Become a great editor through diligence
[edit]Being a member of the welcoming committee on Wikipedia I encourage you to help Wikipedia in any way you can to increase human knowledge. If you have credible information about a topic with verifiable references please feel free to add to that topic. If there is no article on that topic, why not start it, with time others will add to it and it may even make the featured articles list. By doing this, I have been able to make over 6000 page edits in both new articles, article improvement etc. Furthermore, I encourage you to aim to be a member of the autoconfirmed users [[1]] group as this will greatly improve your Wikipedia experience. You can do this by making at least 10 credible edits on Wikipedia and remaining on Wikipedia for four (4) days. Check out this page for tips. CrossTempleJay talk 11:01, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
Adding media to articles
[edit]Media files, be it images, drawings or sound files are an integral part of Wikipedia's articles. They apart from enriching articles, make them more credible too. You can add media files to both your new articles as well as once you are editing. To do so you can search for it on wikipedia:commons or you can either upload the image if you have it using this file uploader or [commons uploader]. Please be informed that you must provide accurate information about the file being uploaded since they are reviewed and if if is found that the license given to the file is false, it will promptly be deleted.

Spotting bad edits and vandalism
[edit]As you age on Wikipedia, one thing you will come across and probably address will the issue of bad edits or vandalism. There are several ways of spotting them:
- by reviewing articles on your watchlist regularly and looking for bad edits
- verifying new changes to pages and articles
If you happen to come across a bad edit you may:
- ask an editor you trust to review the work for his/her inputs
- you can rollback the change if you have credible information that the edit is indeed bad
- request that the necessary change be made on the article's talk page.
Whatever you do, please be very careful about the changes you make, for a rule of thumb, discuss issues you are not sure of first before making changes. CrossTempleJay talk 11:01, 15 May 2011 (UTC)
is equivalent to blogs. Blog links are not welcome on wikipedia. Please don't add them. See WP:ELNO. Materialscientist (talk) 23:21, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
Deletion discussion about Council for Nutritional and Environmental Medicine
[edit]Hello, Vitalpost,
I wanted to let you know that there's a discussion about whether Council for Nutritional and Environmental Medicine should be deleted. Your comments are welcome at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Council for Nutritional and Environmental Medicine .
If you're new to the process, articles for deletion is a group discussion (not a vote!) that usually lasts seven days. If you need it, there is a guide on how to contribute. Last but not least, you are highly encouraged to continue improving the article; just be sure not to remove the tag about the deletion nomination from the top.
Thanks, Batard0 (talk) 12:36, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Hello, Vitalpost! I see that you asked, at this deletion discussion, what you could do to rescue the article or make it better - but the discussion was closed before anyone could reply to you. The main thing you could do is wait a year or two, until the council has received some press or other notice from independent sources. The reason it was deleted was not about the way it was written, and no amount of rewriting could have changed the decision. The problem simply was that the council has not become notable as Wikipedia defines it. As you commented yourself, it has not made much impact yet - and until it does it does not qualify to be included in an international encyclopedia. You can read the requirements for an organization to have an article here at WP:ORG. In the meantime, I hope that you will stick around and continue to work on improving the encyclopedia - and not take it personally if some of your work gets removed. --MelanieN (talk) 14:28, 16 October 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Geir Bjørklund may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s. If you have, don't worry: just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.
- List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
- Norwegian Dental Patient Association ([[:no:Forbundet Tenner og Helse|Forbundet Tenner og Helse]])). He was editor of the magazine until the summer of 1999. Bjørklund had in the late 1990s also
- inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry]]. They found that the [[zinc]] level was decreased (P<0.001), and the [[copper]]/[[zinc]] [[ratio]] increased (P<0.001) in [[Autism spectrum|autistic children]], compared with a healthy [[Treatment and control

Hello. I am thinking about nominating this article for deletion per lack of coverage of Bjørklund in independent, reliable sources. I notice though that the article says there has been news articles about him (maybe before the internet age?). Is it possible for you to find these articles and maybe provide excerpts of them? If they are off-line, you simply write Article title, author, date etc (plus maybe give excerpts at the talk page). I am also contemplating nominating CONEM for deletion. Also, as your editing has been heavily focused on Bjørklund and the related CONEM, you may want to familiarize yourself with WP:SPA and with Wikipedia's policy on Conflict of Interest.

Hi Vitalpost, thanks for creating this new biochemistry article! I have a question though: you used the title "Luebering-Rapoport" but it looks like most sources use "Rapoport-Luebering" (e.g. MetaCyc). What was the reasoning for putting Luebering first? Thanks!

Disambiguation link notification for September 1
[edit]Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Luebering-Rapoport pathway, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Tissues. 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.

Multiple accounts?
[edit]There is a suspicion that you have used multiple accounts to edit the Geir Bjorklund article: Vitalpost, Gammelost, and at least 20 IP addresses. Please stop. Going forward, best if you use only Vitalpost. Multiple accounts are referred to as sock puppets, and can lead to all accounts being blocked. David notMD (talk) 02:42, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
