I was at the Kogod Courtyard for the DC meetup to day promptly at 3:00pm. I didn't see any group that seemed to be the Wikipedians. One group had a sign "meetup" but it was the DC Philosophy Club. Anbothe was a photographer's group. Where was everyone? was this canceled? DES (talk) 00:01, 24 February 2014 (UTC)
Hi Antony, have you any knowledge of a class project or such involving molecular pathological epidemiology and related topics? There seems to be a rash of edits from/near Dana-Farber that cite papers by one prof there, Shuji Ogino. The work seems decent, but often isn't wp:MEDRS based.

You realize, if we have enough information about crossings at a particular location, we need to move the information to a separate article, right? - Denimadept ( talk) 23:10, 16 June 2014 (UTC)
I'm contacting you because of your involvement in the Media Viewer RfC. I understand that this is a bit awkward since the RfC has closed with consensus, but I have been tasked with helping the Multimedia team run a study to gather more feedback about Media Viewer preferences. I think the the write-up for the study could use your feedback. Would you take some time to review the study and share your thoughts on the talk page? Please feel free to invite others to participate as well. Thank you! -- Halfak (WMF) ( talk) 18:28, 18 July 2014 (UTC)

Hi! This is Dcrjsr (Jane Richardson). I noticed one of your proposed projects is a page on Protein structure determination, which is indeed very much needed. I've had something similar on my wish list for a while, but would want to make it more general as Macromolecular structure determination. One hard part is settling on the best hierarchy -- is there a general page on molecular structure determination? Definitely the crystallography page is almost entirely on small molecules, which are important but currently perhaps less so than biological macromolecules. So should the main organization be by molecular type (small; protein; DNA; RNA; carbohydrates; ...) or by technique (crystallography; NMR; cryoEM; SAXS; prediction; ...) or some other system. Anyhow, at present it seems a shame to do proteins without including nucleic acids (especially RNA and protein/nucleic acid complexes). I don't know the answer -- what are your feelings? In any case, I'd be interested in helping whenever you get started with it. Dcrjsr ( talk) 00:33, 3 September 2014 (UTC)

Hi Antony-22! One of my co-workers at Cato has recently realized that her boss's wikipedia entry is very wrong, to the point that it says he doesn't even work there anymore. They'd like the intro updated to give his current title at Cato and say that he formerly worked where it (wrongly) says he currently works. We both have a clear COI (since she works for him directly), but we think this is a fairly simple change. She's posted a request on his talk page, but hasn't gotten any replies. Can you help us out here? We want to be completely above board on this. Thanks! HistoricMN44 ( talk) 14:14, 24 September 2014 (UTC)
Also, in case you're interested, I put up a basic article on the continuing resolution that was just passed. I feel like I recall your being interested in this type of bill in the past, although maybe that was just during the shutdown. It is the Continuing Appropriations Resolution, 2015. Thanks!
