Neuroleptic Deletions

Thanks for your excellent suggestions at User_talk:MeekMark#Neuroleptic_Deletions! I've responded to Postcrypto's question on what to do next on the talk page for Postcrypto. — MeekMark (talk) 12:22, 25 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Virus talk pages

If you add the {{WikiProject Viruses|class=Stub|importance=}} banner to the talk pages of virus articles you create you may get help with editing the articles from interested editors who monitor virus articles. Thanks for your article creations on primate viruses. --KP Botany (talk) 03:09, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Citations

Thanks again for your contributions to the organic anion transporter 1 article. Per our discussion, I have merged in the material from SLC22A6 into the organic anion transporter 1 article.

If you haven't seen this yet, please check out User:Diberri's Wikipedia template filling tool (instructions). Given a PubMed ID, one can quickly produce a full citation that can be copied and pasted into a Wikipedia article. This tool will save you some work and help insure that the citations are displayed in a consistent manner. Cheers. Boghog (talk) 05:15, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the tip. I recently installed a reference formatting widget but it doesn't seem to work. Perhaps I've simply been using it incorrectly. I've been filling out citations manually, which is very time consuming. I'll take a look at the PubMed template filling tool.
The merged OAT1 article looks good to me. The evidence relating to the hypothesis that nucleoside analog induced Fanconi syndrome is due to OAT1-positive cell cytotoxicity remains incomplete. Why, for example, is this condition characterized by glycosuria, hypophosphatemia, proteinuria, acidosis, and hypokalemia? Are S2 cells involved in the re-uptake of these substrates? I would like to address this question before I go on to do other things.
Depending on what browser you are using, some of these Wikipedia widgets can be somewhat finicky. You might try using a different browser. Alternatively the template filling tool that I mentioned above is very simple to use. The hardest thing about using it is tracking down a PMID. Once you have that, it is very quick and easy to create a citation template.
Thanks for expanding the article further. Transporters are somewhat out of my area of expertise so I am sorry I can't provide much further help on this particular article. But it looks like the article is now in very good hands :-) Keep up the good work! Boghog (talk) 17:16, 16 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
