Hi. We're into the last five days of the ]. There's a new bonus prize of $200 worth of books of your choice to win for creating the most new women biographies between 0:00 on the 26th and 23:59 on 30th November. If you've been contributing to the contest, thank you for your support, we've produced over 2000 articles. If you haven't contributed yet, we would appreciate you taking the time to add entries to our articles achievements list by the end of the month. Thank you, and if participating, good luck with the finale! |

I know everyone has been waiting anxiously for this week’s COTW, so here they are: ''']''' and ''']'''. Both are almost Start class, just some formatting and referencing, plus a little expansion and they will be there! |

Thanks very much for being so understanding about this article. I have been offline for a few months however still welcome your collaboration concerning this subject. I'm intending to do more research concerning citations and any other verifiable references. Sadly, most doctors who prescribe SSRIs/SNRIs today are still completely ignorant of this phenomenon. A shame, really. And you were correct. I do tend to edit a paragraph or article endlessly until I feel it is "just right." I will make use of the preview feature from now on. Thanks. P.S. The ''paroxetine'' article still needs work. References concerning efficacy are still patently false and misleading. — ] 11:01, 2 October 2007 (UTC) |

Hey Scientizzle, how are you? You're an admin type, so I thought I would ask you about ], which is undergoing a slow edit war with a vandal who is using a range of dynamic IPs. I don't think this is serious enough to ask for a range block, but do you have any other suggestions? It seemed too minor to report at AIV. Why do I care about an obscure river in Alberta, you ask? Because Bradley Walworth vanitydalized an Oregon article and I checked his contribs. There was briefly an article about Bradley Walworth, and he added his name to a river in Connecticut too. In the Spanish Misplaced Pages, no less. Stupid vandals. I don't want to have to watch this article until he graduates from junior high school... ] 22:29, 3 October 2007 (UTC) |

I aplogized for writing that to the person you mentioned and aplogized to him/her directly. Immediately deleting without giving the person a chance to argue his case just doesn't seem fair. I felt attacked and acted impulsively. It's people on here like him/her that are bringing out the worst in me. This is why: It just seems to me that it's unfair that they are choosing to delete this when there's alot worse to me found here and in fact the semibeings are equal or more deserving than alot I see here. I find that in itself to be a bit of a personal attack. I'm working hard to get these guys rightfully in here. People like the person I wrote that to seem to just want to come along and wipe it out. It's subjective. If it was downright Un-notabile, then it would be different. But it's not.

Thanks for supporting ]. Unfortunately, things didn't quite go well, and it was closed rather early.

==Antibioics as antagonists: A special case? Do you think its relevant== |
|
|
Hi was looking for a second opinion |
|
|
|
|
|
introduced the subsection antibiotics as antagonists of pathogens in article ]. while current definitions of antagonists rely on determination of their affinity and efficacy at receptors, antibiotics are treated differently. Activity of antibiotics is assessed by direct measurement of their antimicrobial activity. Though these chemotherapeutic agents possess affinity and efficacy for their molecular targets these parameters are often ignored when determining their pharmacolgical usefulness. Was just wondering if you agree with my point of view. If not this subsection would not belong here so your free to remove it. ] (]) 16:27, 18 November 2007 (UTC) |

A receptor for a drug in pharmacology may be an actual biochemical receptor or ion channel or enyzme. Originally, the term 'receptor' was applied generically to all drug targets because there was no clear sense of how binding gives rise to a biological effect. Some of these targets subsequently turned out to be enzymes or other molecules, and today the term 'receptor' is generally reserved for a molecule that acts as a biological signal transducer though I agree the title of the article is receptor antagonist. If the focus of the article is to remain on specifically only receptor antgonists then ok I see your point. there is also information included in this article about COX inhibition a membrane-bound enzyme as far as I can tell, information relating to aspirin which acts as a cox enzyme antagonist. So this article as it stands does contain information relating to non-receptor mediated antagonism. when I think about it, it seems more acceptable to talk about aspirin, but not so acceptable to talk about antibiotics. I think because their place as antagonists is glossed over when they teach you about these things. i wouldn't have necessary known that much about their pharmacology other then how they work when I started my PhD in microbiology. |
|
|
|
|
|
Why I thought they should appear... |
|
|
|
|
|
Its because they are a special case that I really wanted to highlight this particular class of antagonists. We define antagonists by their affinity and efficacy. But we define antibiotics (which are antagonists) differently. Not by their affinity, or efficacy but by their antimicrobial activity. So I think they do merit discussion which I think you agree with. But your only objection seems to be that this discussion is beyond the scope of this article. |
|
|
|
|
|
I think that the scope of the article should continue to encompas this topic for 2 main reasons. All links to this page are under the term antagonist. the general term. I think receptor antagonist and antagonist to be the same. (see point above) as a pharmacologist you'd hopefully agree. the scope of this article also includes information relating to aspirin. |
|
|
|
|
|
I think placing antibiotics in this article would benifit it providing it is made clear that the term receptor is explained as above. Or the new article on pharmacological antagonism is created and the information is repeated their and the scope of that article should be broader. <small>—Preceding ] comment added by ] (] • ]) 13:32, 19 November 2007 (UTC)</small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot--> |

Antibiotics target enzymes like the penicillin binding proteins (Cephalosporins) and (penicillins). The aminogylcocides target s30 subunit of ribosomes and Floroqinalones target the enzyme DNA gyrase. Alot of enzyme targets I agree. Was trying to reconcile Antibiotics and antagonists. I always wondered about it. why don't you have affinity and efficacy information or IC50s for antibiotics. The answer is I find that people don't assess antibiotics the same way, they look instead at the ability of an antibiotic to kill or inhibit growth of a micro-organism. An overall antibiotic effect. what the end point of inhibition really is for these types of drugs. They do have affinity and efficacy for their target but there just not determined. |
|
|
|
|
|
but I removed the information anyways, I think I should try and get a few more opinions on the matter as well. Not that I don't appreciate yours ;) |
|
|
|
|

I think an article like Antagonism( pharmacolgy) would contain alot of redundant information that would also appear in this article. I think this article covers more then just receptor antagonist. But I don't know really. ] (]) 11:52, 19 November 2007 (UTC) |

::I do not mean to imply anything inappropriate, as I said it was just an observation. This is frequently the outcome with some of these individuals, though.

I try to discuss these things in the talk pages but if they simply refuse to participate or refuse to even acknowledge my POV on a topic, well they call that "consensus". |

Because that is what has been happening here, IMHO. |

::I can honestly say that I am presenting honest rationale for the edits I have made. Can you honestly say that the majority of those who are opposed here have done likewise, or even expressed a reason for objecting? If so I guess that I just can't see it.

How is one supposed to reach consensus when the opposing side won't even express an arguable position? |

::And for them to object to this particular in-line edit is just ludicrous. It hurts absolutely nothing. It enables absolutely nothing other than provide a convenience for the reader.

|
::Or how about this on-going debate over a completely innocuous quote from a properly referenced source that many of the same people oppose: . The quote itself clearly meets all of the relevant criteria for being included but rather than debate the merits of the quote itself they have engaged primarily in an ad hominem attack on the author whom they simply don't like. |

In the case of the first they act en bloc to prevent any criticism in the summary while at the same time acting en bloc on the second to prevent any comparable removal of criticism in the summary of that article.

:Thanks for the reply. I would say that the rationales opposing this edit presented on the talk page honestly seem fairly solid. Part of the reason I ended up counting noses was that I saw no overwhelming strength or weakness in either side's arguments, thus the arguments that held favor of the vast majority "wins" (for now). Your point about majority mobs rings true all over this encyclopedia and I respect your willingness to discuss your point-of-view. Without delving into the other GW realms you mention, I'll only offer this: keep working on it. Remember the old adage about flies and honey, cite sources, be civil, and eventually even those that disagree with your personal opinions will shed those limitations and be more willing to work together. A pittance of a pep talk, I know, but it's the only viable way to make NPOV work. Many folks could use a refresher on that, IMO, on every side of every debate.

Could you maybe allow the article to be up more that 2 minutes before you start questioning everything? It's what is called a stub, and a new one at that. I have added a link to the article on the existing clubs. The club has been around for more than a century, I believe finding press clippings would be possible, but I am only one guy.

Excuse me, um you redirected my work that I did on Parts Of A Cell that took me a lot of time. My article states important key facts to part of a cell. I did the cell unit last term, and we had to write key points, I didn't write what I wrote on my article, but after asking my teacher said if I had written that I would have gotten A+ instead of the A I got. Therefore the article I have written can help users who are searching for Parts Of A Cell.The article that you have redirected it to doesn't really talk about the specific parts of the cell rather than the whole cell. |

Hi. Could you take a look at the current lead of the ] article. I have sourced two The New York Times and the London Evening Standard that children primarily believe in Santa Claus. Additionally, there is an MSNBC poll provided showing children believe in Santa. Two "Santa is real" supporters feel this is POV (one removed the "primarily" word as a "weasel word"), and one, ], found a Canadian marketing survey that showed out of 1000 Canadian adults, 300 believe in Santa and 700 did not. So I added the wording "(and a small number of adults)" with the source. This is now being called POV on my part. We could stand to have some--*ahem*--adult supervision. --<font color="#0000C0">David</font> ''']''' 16:53, 13 December 2007 (UTC) |

Hi, Scientizzle. |

In September, you added a commment to the article regarding Dov Gazit - stating that references were needed to validate the article. |
|
|
Since then, 2 references have been cited - one from the History of the Biblical Zoo in Jerusalem, to verify the story about the lion, and a second from a History of Russian Zionism, whch displayed a picture of Dov Gazit and other Zionist inmates at the Karkarlinsk Gulag in Khazakhstan, to illustrate his Zionist acivities. |
|
|
Rather than unilaterally removing the notice, I am hoping that these references are enough to enable you to remove the notice you posted in September. |
