[edit] This month's winner is RNA interference!

RNA interference The Molecular and Cellular Biology WikiProject's current Collaboration of the Month article is RNA interference. Please help to improve this article to featured article status.Last month's collaboration was proteasome.

[edit] Nice figure

Just saw your central dogma figure and it looks great but I am wondering if it is accurate to say RNA to RNA to virus only. There are RNA dependent RNA poymerases involved in siRNA amplification mechanisms for one. David D. (Talk) 10:12, 18 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nice figure, but an error

More importantly the red and blue colors are switched on the color key to the central dogma figure. As you have drawn the arrows, blue is the general case and red is the special case. Anon. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 75.132.168.230 (talk) 02:16, 22 December 2006 (UTC).

Are plant known as lower life forms? This seems to be from an animal centric POV. There are higher and lower plants, as there are higher and lower animals. I don't think the hierarchy is meant to comparre between animal and plants. David D. (Talk) 22:16, 16 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Immune system

Hi Mike. HELP! This article has been nominated for FA, but needs editing. If you can spare any time to help us copy edit and clarify I'd be most grateful. TimVickers 05:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Userpage -moz-border-radius

I don't know if you know this already, but the -moz-border tag is a mozilla firefox specific style, ie. internet explorer does not display the round corners. This isnt a problem for small radiuses, but large radiuses can have display problems in other browsers, and unfortunately do on your user page. But nice to find another firefox user :). 84.68.176.104 10:00, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

Hi there. Something seems to have happened to your Stem cell diagram File:StemCellsDia.png. I'm not sure where it went. TimVickers 01:33, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Recently a diagram I designed has disappeared in to the void. Where did it go? File:StemCellsDia.png is now missing, can anyone help? Adenosine^talk 18:39, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nuclear pore

Dear Mike, I am a user of the Occitan wikipedia [1] ; and I would like to know if it could be possible to use your wonderfull drawing of the nuclear pore for the Occitan article [2] (without a drawing like this one, there would no point in enhancing the article because it would not be very easy to understand) ; I've seen that there is a licence restiction, this is why I wanted to ask you, in case there would be a chance the Occitan wikipedia can use it. Sincerely, Lembeye [3]

Many thanks. Thanks to your drawing, if you go to the Occitan page, you'll see that thanks to you, the article has been enhanced, though, I hope it will be improved soon. We still have a little problem to view it in its page, although the file works perfectly. We'll check that with our manager. Thanks again and congratulation for this drawing and for the others you made (both artistically and scientificly). We all know that biology is nothing without proper illustration. Best, Eric : Lembeye [4]

[edit] Notability of Erica Kubanek

Hello, this is a message from an automated bot. A tag has been placed on Erica Kubanek, by WWGB (talk · contribs), another Wikipedia user, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. The tag claims that it should be speedily deleted because Erica Kubanek seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert the subject's importance or significance may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

To contest the tagging and request that administrators wait before possibly deleting Erica Kubanek, please affix the template {{hangon}} to the page, and put a note on its talk page. If the article has already been deleted, see the advice and instructions at WP:WMD. Feel free to leave a message on the bot operator's talk page if you have any questions about this or any problems with this bot, bearing in mind that this bot is only informing you of the nomination for speedy deletion; it does not perform any nominations or deletions itself. --Android Mouse Bot 2 04:28, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned non-free image (Image:EK1.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:EK1.jpg. 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.

[edit] Nice work!

I just came across Image:TCA.svg, and I thought, "Nice diagram! I wonder if it's lifted from somewhere, or if it's a nicely free work?" And then I thought, "I wonder if it's a boring, static old GIF, or a nicely-scalable SVG?" And I was pleasantly surprised to discover that the answer to both questions was a resounding "Yes!"! —Steve Summit (talk) 20:52, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Uploading your image on Commons

Hi, I uploaded one of your images ([5]) on Commons. I hope this is okay with you and doesn't break any rules. It seems you released it under a "Commons Attribution ShareAlike License version 2.5", but on Commons I could only enter a 3.0 sharealike license version, so I hope that is not a big problem.

[edit] asking permission

Dear Sir,

My name is Sylvia Pratiwi. I'm a lecturer at Faculty of Pharmacy, Gadjah Mada University, Yogyakarta, Indonesia. I'm planning to wite a book about pharmaceutical microbiology and I would like to use the images that you've made(Central Dogma of Molecular Biology, bacterial flagella, bacterial conjugation and T2 phage) at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Adenosine/Gallery

Would you mind giving me information about my possiblity to use this image in my book? Because this book will be commercially published and used as a textbook for undergraduate student here in Indonesia to study about microbiology in pharmacy.

Hope to hear from you soon, and thank you very much for your kindly help and attention.

Yours Sincerely,

Sylvia Pratiwi

[edit] Speedy deletion of Image:HatchSlackpathway.png

A tag has been placed on Image:HatchSlackpathway.png requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section I8 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is available as a bit-for-bit identical copy on the Wikimedia Commons under the same name, or all references to the image on Wikipedia have been updated to point to the title used at Commons.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on [[ Talk:Image:HatchSlackpathway.png|the talk page]] explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. Sdrtirs (talk) 17:22, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] your brassica image is incorrect

Dear Adenosine, the brassica image is showing the plants as if they were haploids. This is incorrect. Normal plants are diploids and carry 2n chromosomes. regards Herman van Eck, Geneticist at Wageningen University —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.224.252.10 (talk) 11:29, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

I understand what you mean but I don't think it is too much of an issue here. The diagram was not intended just to convey inter-relatedness in the brassica group. Maybe it is a diagram of the DNA in pollen? Or maybe it is the DNA of a haploid genome so that genetic redundancy isn't too confusing (that's what I had in mind). I'd be happy to redesign it if you could suggest a elegant way to design a more accurate model Adenosine^talk 19:20, 20 November 2008 (UTC)
