[edit] Re: Shock

I certainly did not mean to delete some of article, merely correct an error in understanding. This was accidental and so was not vandalism by definition. I'm a big fan of Wiki and would never purposely cause detriment to it. Dan 17:07, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Shock

I see you edited my correction regarding Shock. I have re-edited it, as I believe that I am correct and that the hyperventilation is a mechanism to blow off CO₂ to correct the acidosis - it doesn't matter whether the pathology is a metabolic acidosis as the acute way of correcting acid-base balance is through respiratory control - renal control takes days to correct itself (although it will eventually). The mechanism of O₂ concentration rising will not correct the pH of the blood, it will merely prevent a worsening clinical picture. Dan 10:55, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nursing & RCN

I see you've done lots of work on Nursing (United Kingdom), would you fancy taking a look at the Royal College of Nursing, as I'm getting bogged down with it. — Rod ^talk 18:56, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Greetings

[edit] Nursing Portal & wikiproject

Hi, You may or may not be aware that User:THB has crated a Nursing Portal and Nursing Wikiproject aiming to improve Wikipedia's coverage of Nursing. It would be great if all Wikipedian nurses got involved. — Rod ^talk 19:22, 12 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:Gcu logo 60mm colour.png)

Thanks for uploading Image:Gcu logo 60mm colour.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 03:22, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Rcn-logo.gif

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Rcn-logo.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 23:23, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nursing WikiProject

Hey! I'm on a mission to get the Nursing WikiProject active again. If you're still actively editing nursing articles, or are still interested in this project, please let me know on my talk page. Josh 14:36, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wishaw General Hospital

A {{prod}} template has been added to the article Wishaw General Hospital, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you endorse deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please tag it with {{db-author}}. B. Wolterding 11:38, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blood Donation

Back in December of last year, you added a "globalize" tag to this article. I'd like to try and fix it up. There are some obvious US-centric points on donor eligibility to fix, but what else in the article did you find inappropriate? Just glancing through the NHS's online blood donor eligibility thing [1], I see a few differences in timeframes that I can add into the article.

AABB's newsletter recently did a bit on blood donation around the world and I'll be looking into that (sadly, it's not openly available online [2]) to try and pick up on differences. I'm not sure what they covered as part of third-world countries, though I know they have some interaction with PEPFAR (The US program for HIV/AIDS relief, mostly active in Africa) and that's another aspect I'll try to include if I can find some clear references.Somedumbyankee (talk) 00:15, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
