Is the proposed deletion of the "Rosalind Franklin Joke Card" your idea of a joke? It is an essential part of the article and it appears in Brenda Maddox's biography and Maurice Wilkins' autobiography. Having spoken to Professor Raymond Gosling in the past, I do feel sure he would have no objection to it appearing in the article; unfortunately it is not possible to gauge the opinions of Franklin and Wilkins, as they are both dead. To remove this image is totally illogical as it is an integral part of the story of the Double Helix. Please comment asap. MP

Double Thanks

(Jordan S. Wilson (talk) 23:24, 19 February 2010 (UTC)) Greeting Fellow Wikipedian, Thanks for refilling my page. If you see on you page I have created some barnstar for you. If you need anything you let me know.[reply]

User blanking of articles

I notice that you recently reverted an edit where the author of the article Department of postgraduate education had blanked that article, and you placed a warning on that user's talk page, using Huggle. However, it is generally accepted that if the author of an article blanks the article, and no other user has added any significant content, then the blanking is taken as indicating that the author wants the page deleted, and it can then be tagged for speedy deletion with {{db-blanked}}. Very often new users who don't know how Wikipedia works see an article they have created tagged for deletion, accept that the article should be deleted, and remove the content, thinking that is deleting it. It is much better in such a case not to bite the newcomer by giving them a warning that they have done something wrong by trying to comply with the deletion notice. You may know all this already: I know from my own experience of using Huggle that it is very easy to slip into simply clicking on the revert button and moving on without checking the edit carefully enough, but I thought it would not harm to mention this. I have taken the liberty of removing the user warning: please restore it if you think there is a good reason why it should be there. JamesBWatson (talk) 15:22, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I can only apologise for this, occasionally it is very easy to do this without realising. However i do have a lot of experience with huggle, and as you have said from your experience too it is all too easy for this to happen. Again i can only apologise that this has happened. KiraChinmoku (T, ¤) 21:22, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I am also in the process of modifying the huggle sourcecode to make it harder for these things to happen by checking the creator of the page against last edits to see if this is what may have happened. KiraChinmoku (T, ¤) 21:47, 22 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
No apology is needed: I was just letting you know in case you didn't realise. JamesBWatson (talk) 16:34, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What?

In no way did Jpgordon ask me to "leave". Please stop inhibiting my attempts to get to know Josh. Hiineedrequestforcomment (talk) 21:06, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your RfA...

...is failing, as there are 0 supports, 10 opposes, and 1 neutral. Please consider withdrawing your RfA soon. December21st2012Freak Happy St. Patrick's Day! 23:44, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I wont be withdrawing it for one reason. That reason being if it is closed i will miss out on alot of comments. Comments left on the RFA will help me to improve for the next time i try. This is because i cant see where i am going wrong, so comments help, what i cant see others can, and comments like yours will help me to improve my work on wikipedia. KiraChinmoku (T, ¤) 23:49, 17 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

An RfA, once it has been transcluded and several users have !voted in it, does not qualify for CSD G7. If you wish to withdraw the RfA, the correct way to do so is to post a withdrawing statement below your self-nom statement. After the RfA is closed and archived, you can request courtesy blanking. However, closed RfAs are generally not deleted. Nsk92 (talk) 00:29, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks, ill go do that now. KiraChinmoku (T, ¤) 00:30, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your RFA has been closed

I regret to inform you that your RFA has been closed (per your request) as unsuccessful. I recommend reviewing the comments made by those participating in the discussion there to determine what you can do to improve your chances in the future, should you choose to run again. I also strongly recommend involving yourself in areas where admins work (WP:AFD/TFD/CFD/MFD, WP:CSD, WP:AIV, etc.) and become very familiar with how they work. Reading Wikipedia:Guide to requests for adminship and the information found at Wikipedia:Administrators#Becoming an administrator (especially the links there). Please let me know if you have any questions. ···日本穣? · 投稿 · Talk to Nihonjoe 01:02, 18 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]


Boolean logic

Minor nitpick on the clever code from your user page:

assert((x == true) == x); // Will never throw an exception, regardless of the value of x

Or, as most logicians would agree, the statement "x is true" is functionally equivalent to the simpler statement "x."

Flight Avia Flight 7100

Re this edit, you added a parent cat to the article. Category:Aviation accidents and incidents in Ireland is a sub-category of Category:Aviation in Ireland. No major harm done, I've removed the parent cat. Mjroots (talk) 13:28, 10 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Ah ok, thanks mate. --KiraChinmoku (T, ¤) 13:08, 11 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Rosalind Franklin/Raymond Gosling DNA Funeral Card

Is the proposed deletion of the "Rosalind Franklin Joke Card" your idea of a joke? It is an essential part of the article and it appears in Brenda Maddox's biography and Maurice Wilkins' autobiography. Having spoken to Professor Raymond Gosling in the past, I do feel sure he would have no objection to it appearing in the article; unfortunately it is not possible to gauge the opinions of Franklin and Wilkins, as they are both dead. To remove this image is totally illogical as it is an integral part of the story of the Double Helix. Please comment asap. MP
