Leaving a message for myself. Hello you. InsufficientData (talk) 13:50, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nice little article. :-) I see you've been editing a lot of articles related to dentistry. You a dentist? Nephron  T|C 12:13, 4 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you :) I'm actually an engineer, but I've been doing quite a bit of research into oral pathology and treatments after my own recent diagnosis with ameloblastoma. I figure that if I'm going to make the effort to research these things, I might as well share what I've learned with others. --InsufficientData (talk) 17:40, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I saw your new article when patrolling pages. I've marked it as patrolled.

Consider stopping work on this article. It could be a disambiguation page. Chergles (talk) 18:54, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia should not give instructions on how to do surgery, just as Wikipedia should not give bomb making instructions or how to kill someone with an axe. Therefore, enucleation (surgical technique) is an inappropriate title because it could lead to article creep and eventually tell people, including insane people, how to remove their eye.

This should be a disambiguation page. It could direct people to the different articles, some of which are red linked. I will show you what I mean. When I do so, it is not an edit war. It's just that seeing it is easier than a long, long description (and so far there are not other editors - if there were 50 editors then it would be unwieldy to demonstrate like I will be doing). Thank you for your patience. Chergles (talk) 20:19, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

How about renaming it? You may have no intention of teaching people how to remove eyes but the title of "surgical technique" is highly suggestive of this. Since you don't seem to want the article as a disambiguation, I will restore your text with some modification. Chergles (talk) 23:10, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've renamed it "Encleation (concept)" . This is actually describes more of what you wrote rather than surgical technique. With this, the page does not have to be a disambiguation page. There can be sections for leiyomyoma, pathology, etc. Good luck on writing it. If you need help, I am willing to help. Chergles (talk) 23:14, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure where Chergles is getting people cutting out their own eyes stuff. That's bizarre. --InsufficientData (talk) 00:35, 8 February 2009 (UTC) Bizarre is correct. See http://www.nature.com/eye/journal/v18/n4/full/6700667a.html and http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/28582204/ . First link is entitled "Bilateral self-enucleation of eyes" describing an event in the UK. Second link is entitled "Death row inmate pulls out eye, says he ate it; He had earlier pulled out other eye after conviction in family's killings" and happened in Texas. Chergles (talk) 00:56, 8 February 2009 (UTC)

Really, it feels to me that you're not really getting what I'm saying, since you don't reply to specific parts of my messages. Are you actually reading my replies in their entirety? This is frustrating to me. I feel like either I'm not expressing myself very well, or you're just not understanding what I'm saying.

Sorry, not trying to argue or be difficult. Will clarify anything you wish. Specific part that I didn't answer. In short, I'm very uncomfortable with enucleation (surgical technique). I'll think of an alternate name that is mutually acceptable. Chergles (talk) 01:01, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am sorry that you appear angry judging by your comments.

It is inappropriate to have a how to. The title of "enucleation (surgical technique)" suggests and encourages writing about how to do it. Let's explore if there is a better term that we can agree upon.

Enucleation (concept) is being used.

Enucleation (surgery) is also acceptable to me. There is no "technique" so the slippery slope to a how to article is reduced.

I am uncertain of the value of the page. If you want to stress that there are different usages of the word "enucleation", then a disambiguation page would be appropriate. I am not trying to argue or fight but have a hard time figuring out the value of such a page. As proof of my good intent, unlike others I have seen, I do not slap a deletion tag and fight for its deletion. Let's figure this out together! Then we can make the article great! Chergles (talk) 18:03, 8 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I will take care of the reference list as soon as I can. I am very sorry for the delay. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Logger9 (talk • contribs) 21:01, 15 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That was, essentially, what I suggested in the Talk page for that 9/11 article. No point in arguing over ... I think it rather amounts to different dialects of English. Wowest (talk) 05:03, 20 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am doing copyediting on Monasteries in Spain, along with other improvements. I added many categories to the article, which you tagged for insufficient categories. Please take a look at the categories, and comment or change as needed. --DThomsen8 (talk) 15:28, 23 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Hi InsufficientData,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
