Welcome to Wikipedia!

Regarding the intersexual article: thank you for your lengthy critique; please feel free to edit boldly to bring the article up to scratch. There is no single author for any Wikipedia article; we rely on peer review and editing to continually revise each article, driving out mediocrity and errors. The theory is that as articles get better, they engage the attention of progressively better qualified editors, who correct their flaws until (we hope) excellence is achieved. -- The Anome 09:47, 5 Apr 2004 (UTC)


Hi Alteripse, and welcome again to wikipedia.

No worries about the GH formatting, it's nice to see the article grow so much!

There are a few pages that explain Wikipedia formatting (e.g Wikipedia:How to edit a page), but here are a few basics (if you haven't picked them up already).

==Heading== will make a heading.
This is a [[link]]. Will make a link like that.
'''Bold''' and ''italic''. -> Bold and italic

Hi Alteripse, thanks for your comment in the "doctors' mess". Would you consider joining the Wikipedia doctors clicque? Please add your name to the list of members!
Concerning my nice metabolic diagrams: I usually look up a few textbook or online sources and draw them in the OpenOffice.org vector diagram program. Do you have any special requests? I'll gladly draw an image for an existing article (I can always recycle them whenever I need to give a talk!) Just don't ask me to do coagulation—there's so many different diagrams around that I would be a bit out of my depth...

You've got mail!

Just started around April 1 2004. Why am I not surprised? -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 02:07, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

You've got even more mail!

So you are into pediatric endocrinology? I took you for a highschool student. WikiDoc & Wikiproject "Medical Conditions" was the primary motivation for my project on alternative medicine. Which in turn came from User:Kd4ttc (gastroenterology)'s comments on Talk:alternative medicine. I like what Kd4ttc had written in archive 5. Get Kd4ttc back to edit alternative medicine (criticism section) and I might go along with it; as long as the first 3 paragraphs are not screwed around with.

PS: My project from conception to implementation took only 2 weeks. -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 06:46, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Correction! I would like to have the 3rd paragraph deleted 100%. Nor, do I particularly like paragraph one either. But, as the intro paragraphs of an article they are supposed to be straight to the point and stable. -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 15:00, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

It's not the article that's the problem. It the people involved (One person in particular). I don't know how the wiki will solve this kind of problem in the long term, but there are always plenty of reasonable people to take up the flag so in the long run I suspect the article will turn out just fine. theresa knott 09:46, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

In the long run, Alternative medicine will be irrelevant because by the end of summer 2004, it would have been bypassed. -- John Gohde, aka Mr-Natural-Health 14:56, 3 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Is WikiDoc moving?

Compliments on this article—informative and useful. Perhaps the differential diagnosis of malabsorption should go into the respective article, which IMHO is sorely missing from Wikipedia. I know too little of the rarer causes to start malabsorption properly :-(. Do you think fecal elastase should be written?
JFW | T@lk 12:19, 4 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

Feel free to expand. I wrote it because I happened to notice it was a "requested article." I have no idea who requested it or why. So I did a quick "memory dump" without looking anything up. It is the limit of my knowledge, and I leave it those for whom stool is bread and butter to further expand it. You probably know more about malabsorption than anyone else here, so go for. I'll add a little child-oriented stuff if you want. Alteripse 13:01, 4 May 2004 (UTC)[reply]

It's on my personal wishlist. I'll see when I can find the time (and the useful review articles...)

those for whom stool is bread and butter

LOL
