Absolutely. I'm adding the Unique Ingredient Identifier (UNII) codes used by the FDA/NIH/USP to reference substances. I'm also adding a link to the UNII list site. Many of them had already been added last year, but there are a large portion that hadn't yet been addressed. I'm adding all remaining UNIIs that link to INN-named substances, and are displayed on the FDA public list.Peryeat (talk) 00:29, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Are you using a bot to add all those links? If you are, please note that it is not allowed to operate a bot script without permission of WP:BAG. Reaper Eternal (talk) 01:47, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Reaper Eternal (talk) 02:06, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

You are extremely right. I was not aware of that rule until about an hour ago. It's completely my fault, and I assume full responsibility. It just seemed logical, as the task was so simple, and doing it by hand became monotonous. The only problem is, I still have the script running on a computer that I don't have current access to, so I can't terminate it. It will stop very soon (there are not many left to be updated). If the changes need to be rolled back, or my account temporarily disabled / banned, I understand. It won't happen again. Peryeat (talk) 02:08, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

If there's anything I can do to assist, let me know. Peryeat (talk) 02:09, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

I doubt they'll need to be rolled back, but please ask in the future. This tends to be the way that a lot of damage gets done. (Not saying that you have done any damage, but when bots go haywire....) Reaper Eternal (talk) 02:12, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yes, don't worry about it, as long as the data is correct there isn't a huge problem. For very obvious tasks like this one you don't really need approval, but you might consider getting it - bot edits are specially flagged to avoid flooding the recent changes list and it can be helpful to run bot edits on a separate account. You should definitely be leaving an explaination of the edit, and that it is an automated edit as the edit summary, however. Prodego ^talk 02:15, 1 July 2011 (UTC)Reply

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.
