Xylem

Kelvin, your graphic for plant cell types is fabulous! I noticed that there is a mistake in labeling primary and secondary cell walls in the xylem image (they're switched). Not the image with all the cell types, but rather the one only featuring xylem. Thank you for supplying such beautiful and clear images. Doppelbrau (talk) 21:58, 9 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Liquidier and gassier

Kelvin, see my comments on your nomination of the image of Saturn for Featured Picture status... (Liquidier?? Yikes!) KDS444 (talk) 15:37, 22 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Sorry I didn't respond the last three days have been kinda hecticcc … but I don't really see what's wrong with liquidier? Everyone's going to get what it means & there's really no other word to distinguish supercritical materials. && "more-liquid" with a hyphen is probably even more confusing—Love, Kelvinsong talk 23:25, 23 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Try "Gaseous hydrogen" "Condensed liquid hydrogen" StereoTypo (talk) 17:31, 24 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Ah but the problem is that a lot of the gas in Saturn isn't "gaseous", it's actually some strange state between a liquid and a gas. The hydrogen is more gas-like near the top of the atmosphere and becomes more liquid-y as you go down. So "Gaseous hydrogen" & "Liquid hydrogen" a little misleading since it implies that you splash from air into an ocean of hydrogen when you go below the Frenkel line—Love, Kelvinsong talk 02:45, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I understand the unusual state of the matter in question. What do planetary astronomers call it? Can we use that term rather than "liquidier"? I think that making up a word is probably more confusing than using a word that doesn't quite apply but is nevertheless close. KDS4444 (talk) 09:05, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I just did a quick look at some literature on hydrogen and Saturn. It looks like planetary astronomers just use the terms "liquid hydrogen", "hydrogen gas", "solid hydrogen", and "metallic hydrogen liquid", and "metallic hydrogen solid" when discussing Saturn's hydrogen states, even as they acknowledge that the hypothetical reaction path of hydrogen is continuous and circular. If these are the terms used in the scientific literature, doesn't it seem like we should be using them here? (although I agree that the "splashdown" concept is to be avoided if at all possible).

Whatevvs. Uploaded new version with "Gassy hydrogen" & "Liquid hydrogen"—Love, Kelvinsong talk 00:52, 26 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I contacted an astronomer at UCLA regarding this question. Here is his response: "This is far from my area of expertise, but my feeling is that the best phrase might just be “denser” as it doesn’t imply anything wrong. I consulted a colleague in planetary sciences and he confirmed this: 'Denser sounds about right to me. There are most definitely phase changes in Saturn, and therefore stratification, even though there may be vertical mixing as well.' I hope that helps!

Preconceived Notions Regarding the Structure of Mitochondria

Greetings Kelvin, I have recently come to discover that graphical depictions of mitochondria are from single-celled organisms. Most images incorrectly depict the mitochondria found in mutlicellular eukaryotes, as elegantly demonstrated in this paper. I was wondering if you would be willing to edit or have someone edit "Animal Cell.svg"? I feel that it is important to show how many cells, (especially those found in differentiated tissues), have networks of mitochondria. Even during my undergraduate degree in biology, not a single professor, TA or textbook ever mentioned the concept of mitochondrial networks/fusion! — Preceding unsigned comment added by StereoTypo (talk • contribs)

Huh. I did not know they did that... I've honestly never seen mitochondria drawn as networks ever. I'll look into it though I'm actually kinda busy rn—Love, Kelvinsong talk 02:48, 25 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Kelvin, I have added, to the FP nomination page, several links to examples of similar photographs taken by professionals. The dark lighting style is popular for glossy brochures and adverts. Nikon's class-leading new camera has a publicity photograph (http://www.dpreview.com/previews/nikon-d810/images/shuttercutaway.jpg) that is very similar to the FP candidate. I also gave links to a couple of websites that help calibrate your monitor to ensure it is capable of displaying and distinguishing the full range of dark to light. I wonder if, if the light of this, you might reconsider your opposition. Thanks, — Colin (talk) 08:37, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I changed my vote to support. Though in that picture from your link, it's much easier to see the edge of the camera—it's a very dark gray rather than blending into the background. but anyway. I've already tried callibrating my monitor the best I could but most of the guides refer to settings that don't exist in my monitor's menu...—Love, Kelvinsong talk 14:50, 26 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I see typos in new Ganymede version: "Полаярна шапка" instead of "Полярна" and "у позрізі" instead of "у розрізі"
Also there is no numbering of ices in ukrainian wikipedia, they just called "tetra-, hexa-, mono- etc., so лід (1h) or (6) will be confusing for pupils

MicroRNA illustration

Dear Kelvinsong,

First of all, I would like to thank you for your beautiful and informative scientific images.

I am writing to suggest some corrections to the image you previously created for the microRNA page, which would make it even better.

1. It is the pre-miRNA (not the pri-miRNA) hairpin that exits the nucleus. Also, most pre-miRNAs have a 2 nucleotide 3’ overhang (rather than the 3 nucleotide 5’ overhang shown.

2. Dicer removes the hairpin loop as you have nicely shown. However, Dicer typically does not also trim off nucleotides at the base of the hairpin. I see that your reference 3 might be interpreted as saying otherwise, but that paper was studying a hairpin with a 3 nucleotide 5’ overhang, which the authors say is not typical of a pre-miRNA hairpin. The base of the typical pre-miRNA hairpin is not trimmed (see Figure 1 of PMID: 17381280).

3. In plant cells the microRNA is usually not perfectly complementary to the to the mRNA. There is usually at least one mismatch. Instead of “perfectly complementary to” you could say that it is “nearly perfectly complementary to”. (I’ve also corrected this wording in the text of the article.)

4. Each miRNA is associated with only one Argonaute protein.

5. The presence of the microRNA does not “block” translation, but you could say that it “reduces” translation. (What actually seems to be reduced is translation initiation, without any blocking/slowing of ribosomes that are translocating along the associated mRNA.)

6. With regard to the pairing to targets usually observed in animals, you might consider dropping the preference for an A or U across from nucleotide 9, since this is a weak preference compared to the other preferences that you illustrate. Although it would be good the keep the supplementary pairing to nucleotides 13-16, the text could say something like “Nucleotides 13-16: Perfect base pairing to this region can supplement pairing to the seed region but is not observed for most targets.” (see Figure 1 of PMID: 19167326).

Thank you again for your wonderful contributions to science education.

Hello Kelvin ! First of all, thank you very much for the great board of biology. I'm a french biology student and your work has been helpful and entertaining. However I've seen that your recent work isn't available in French, which is why I'm wondering if you'd be interested in a translation.

Hey Kelvin, I am thinking about using a couple of your AWESOME biology images in my PhD thesis introduction (particularly the organelles and protein synthesis). Could you please provide a couple of examples of a credit line that I could use as guide to comply with the licensing you have specified?

Font distribution platform

After reading your PDF and the typographyforlawyers blog post, I must say Wikimedia is never "democratic" but semi-meritocracy. It straightly denies democracy in "What Wikipedia Is Not" policy. Surprise surprise (actually you should have known that), Wikimedia Foundation does hire and pay employees like Google does, the only difference is that Google is for-profit but not Wikimedia. I have no problem with this system, but when it comes to type distribution, Commons is not an ideal platform for that because its management of resources is not meritocratic. I always have problem with the many low quality unusable sexual media files on Commons but no admins dare to wipe them out, ever. The sole reason I use Commons is entirely because other sister projects rely on Commons for copyleft media files. I think it make more sense to apply for a new wiki project like "Wikitype" for that very purpose. -- Sameboat - 同舟 (talk · contri.) 06:54, 18 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Misspelling?

I think there is a mispelling on your diagram of the atmosphere. "Noctilucent" is spelled as "noctiluscent". https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/8c/Earth%27s_atmosphere.svg Qwed117 (talk) 19:54, 13 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your amazing diagrams, they really helped me understand scientific concepts! Can't wait to see more diagrams, especially molecular biology and genetics. Your diagrams are wonderful! Fzxgao (talk) 15:36, 15 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hurricane Diagram

Hi Kelvin, writing in regards to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Tropical_cyclone&action=submit#/media/File:Hurricane-en.svg. It's been pointed out that the graphic labels rotation as clockwise. However, the circulation at low-levels in an NH TC is counter-clockwise (at upper-levels, the anticyclone above it will relate clockwise). You've shown all this with the arrows correctly, and the graphic is perfect, except your labeling at the bottom left of the figure. Any chance you could change that? Thanks a lot :-) JeopardyTempest (talk) 10:24, 22 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@JeopardyTempest: The labeling is correct, the storm rotates counterclockwise from below, but clockwise from above. The red circular arrow is traveling in the correct direction. This was brought up when the picture stood FP review.—Kelvinsong talk 19:23, 25 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]
You know, I can actually see what you're saying I believe... you're saying if you look up in the sky at it, it rotates clockwise above you from your perspective? A unique way of looking at it... 15 years of meteorology, can't say I've ever heard it described that way... though honestly I KNOW I actually struggled with quite a few ideas\equations for a while in college because of exactly this. I wonder if it's some kind of education perpetuation... or based upon dominant experiences... or brain weighting... or self image or who knows what that some people are most comfortable one way while others are the opposite.
Definitely can still be seen as a perplexing way of putting it... it would be like me telling you that you've raised your left hand when you put up what you see as your right... perspective is sure a peculiar thing. I'd say that your figure sits contrary to the way science has chosen to define the right hand rule. But honestly we all say things like "the sun rises"... and scientists still debate the "ficticious" quality of Coriolis and centripetal\centrifugal forces... so what's in word at all when it comes to perspective differences like this? I just wouldn't be too surprised if you end up with some more meteorologists (or just regular folk) stopping on by to ask again. But shan't be a problem here. Thanks for helping me understand your thinking :-) JeopardyTempest (talk) 07:52, 26 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

'Noctilucent' instead of 'noctiluscent'?

On translating your illustrations into zh_tw

Hello, I am currently an undergraduate major in medicine in Taiwan. I would love to help you on translating your cell organelle diagrams into Chinese(Traditional). May I have your consent to do so? How should I upload the translated version into the collection? May I substitute your proprietary(I presume?) font for Noto Sans? Thanks for your response. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tom282f3 (talk • contribs) 18:06, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Translations should be uploaded and categorized the same way as any other Commons contribution, just make sure to add it to the translations template for ease of access. Substituting the font is fine.—Kelvinsong talk 21:09, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Cartogram at "Electoral College (United States)"

Hullo,

I hope I'm going about this the right way. I have made a note in the Talk page for the Wikipedia article "Electoral College (United States)" that might be of interest to you. I don't mean to be antagonistic in the least, just wanted to raise a point about it (and actually about the political map above it as well), mostly about the captions or legends rather than the maps per se. Cordially,

Small error in the chloroplast cycle image

Hi Kelvin, I just noticed a small error in your picture for the chloroplast cycle (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Chloroplast_division.svg). In the lower right you switched the labels of outer and inner membrane. Just a small error but you had me confused there for a second.

✓ Done Wow, you are right! I’ve corrected the picture, thanks for the catch! don’t know how that went unnoticed for 3 years…—Kelvinsong talk 18:39, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Just see

I have made a number of new illustrations, including some I now wish deleted. Come see! I owe rather more than you realize to your instruction, for which I remain forever grateful!
