DYK for Sucrose gap

On 15 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Sucrose gap, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... the sucrose gap, first developed by Robert Stämpfli in 1954, is used to measure the effects of drugs on the activity of nerve and muscle membranes? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Sucrose gap. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.

Iothalamate and Iothalmate

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give a page a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.

Please undo your recent edits to these pages. If Iothalamate is the correct spelling, then we'll need to request the "Iothalmate" article be moved to "Iothalamate" through Wikipedia:Requested moves. We can't just redirect, copy and paste the contents of one article into another because it messes with the page history. See WP:CUTPASTE for more info. Sro23 (talk) 01:34, 15 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Iothalmate

Nice catch on Iothalmate. Having looked at it in more detail it actually seems to be the salt of this compound (according to doi:10.1148/85.6.1013). It doesn't help that both page-names are spelt wrongly (should be Iothalamate and Iothalamic acid respectively). I'm inclined to merge these two pages, as there's very little data on each. What would be your opinion on that? --Project Osprey (talk) 08:45, 20 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. I think iothalamate and iothalamic acid are the same. Haha, it certainly doesn't help that both are not spelled correctly. I might not have requested the move for "iothalmate" correctly, either - do you know how to make sure the move is in process? Fantumphool (talk) 16:49, 21 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

See here. Instead, it's been merged into Iotalamic acid. Sro23 (talk) 23:58, 23 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good to meet you at WikiConference

Good meeting you too! What is the call? Fantumphool (talk) 15:09, 3 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

My apologies, gave the wrong link before - meta:WALRUS/November 2016. There is another call tonight, and we'd like to share experiences from wikipedia/wikimedia events in different corners of the US.--Pharos (talk) 19:53, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
