Request to revise and reinstate "Copper in energy-efficient motors"

Dear Edgar, This article that I originated about 6 years ago was deleted while I was unable to comment: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Copper_in_energy-efficient_motors. I contacted the lead critic (please see discussion at User talk:Tigraan) about how to revise and reinstate the article after addressing all concerns. I explained the importance of the subject material, the extensive amount of R&D taking place at this time, how these motors are being used today, and an extensive peer-reviewed reference list of published research during the past 15 years. He suggested that I include my comments on the article's talk page. However, I was unable to do this as it is closed now. Please advise how to revise and reinstate the article after addressing the reasonable criticisms that were voiced while I was not available. Thank you. Enviromet (talk) 15:24, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

User:Tigraan properly moved my comments from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Copper_in_energy-efficient_motors to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:Articles_for_deletion/Copper_in_energy-efficient_motors. I didn't realize there was a talk page there. Please see the latter page for my comments. Enviromet (talk) 15:37, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

I have restored the article as a draft at User:Enviromet/Copper in energy-efficient motors. If you feel that you can address the concerns expressed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Copper in energy-efficient motors, please feel free to work on the article there. Then when you think it is ready you can try resubmitting it through the Wikipedia:Articles for creation process. I hope this helps. Regards, -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:43, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

Thank you, Ed. Will work on the revise. Much appreciated. Enviromet (talk) 17:35, 2 May 2016 (UTC)

User:65.78.18.158

Hello, In January you blocked this user for disruptive editing at Yuan dynasty. The editor continues to remove sourced content from that page without discussion ([1]). The user has been asked repeatedly on his talk page and in edit summaries to discuss the issue at the talk page of the article. He has made cryptic explanations of his concerns on his own talk page, and he made an inquiry at the Teahouse, but he has not discussed at the talk page of the article. Perhaps he should be topic banned, or at least banned from editing that page until he engages in discussion. Thank you for your consideration, Laszlo Panaflex (talk) 14:45, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Editors generally aren't topic banned by administrators without some kind of community discussion and consensus to do so. For now, I have left a warning and advice on the editor's talk page and I will block again if necessary. If you wish to pursue a topic ban, you are welcome to start a discussion at a venue such as WP:ANI. In the mean time, if the disruptive editing continues please don't hesitate to let me or another administrator know. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:07, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Emamectins Molecular Structure

I think the Emamectin B1a and Emamectin B1b R-groups are switched. I saw that Santa Cruz Biotech, and BioAustralis have opposite structures of what you produced and the naming scheme is (or seems) identical to Avermectins/Ivermectins. Can you confirm? Kinliss (talk) 22:50, 9 May 2016 (UTC)

Yes, I think you might be right. I'll take a closer look in a little bit to make sure, and then make the necessary corrections to image. -- Ed (Edgar181) 00:08, 10 May 2016 (UTC)

OK, I have created File:Emamectins.svg, which corrects the issue, as well as individual images for emamectin B1a and emamectin B1b. Thanks for catching the error and letting me know. -- Ed (Edgar181) 14:13, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Great! I'm glad that I can help. Kinliss (talk) 18:53, 12 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for starting...

…a good start to an article, the dulaglutide article. Cheers. Le Prof Leprof 7272 (talk) 01:03, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks, but it doesn't look like I deserve the credit for it.  :) All I did was add the infobox. Regards, -- Ed (Edgar181) 11:53, 11 May 2016 (UTC)

thank you so much!

Thank you so much for your valuable edits to Spy Dust. Would you like a cookie or banrstar? Moscowamerican (talk) 10:05, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for starting the article. It was something I had never heard of before - I learned something fun and interesting. -- Ed (Edgar181) 11:54, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

Administrator Bgwhite is the related subject.

207.102.255.36 (talk) 18:00, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

Your complaints about Bgwhite are unrelated to the article Jimmy Wales, so it is inappropriate for you to put them at Talk:Jimmy Wales. -- Ed (Edgar181) 18:02, 21 May 2016 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

	sir, why did u delete my an article Brajwood. I gave notable sources like news articles,google books etc. Hema2016 (talk) 12:40, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

I did not delete Brajwood. I removed the two no-longer-needed redirects Brij-wood and Brijwood. that redirected to the deleted article Brajwood. That article was most recently deleted by User:Rmhermen. The reason he gave was that the article was a recreation of the article deleted as the result of the discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Brijwood. -- Ed (Edgar181) 13:44, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Request to relook at design outline page"

hello edgar181, I started the page named "Design outline". They have been creative agency from last 11 yrs and their work is commendable. and they are great at their work, thus i felt world deserve to know about them. its not about any living person or not an advertisement activity. Thus i feel deleting its page was inappropriate. Gilu123 (talk) 15:32, 25 May 2016 (UTC)gilu123

I have taken a second look at Design outline. It is still apparent to me that the article clearly met criteria for speedy deletion. It contained no credible claim of significance (see WP:CSD#A7) and consisted entirely of highly promotional content such as "a branding powerhouse of businesses worldwide" and "cross cultural insights have helped them to extend their services to hyper-active companies worldwide" (see WP:CSD#G11). -- Ed (Edgar181) 16:22, 25 May 2016 (UTC)

Issues with Inkscape

I've tried uploading a new picture for Ramoplanin and the .svg file is producing random Hydrogens around the image and removing some Oxygens. I was wondering if you have advice on producing images without those errors or which programs you prefer. I'm using Chemsketch (.sk2) and Inkscape (.wmf) to create the picture files. Somehow those additional errors are coming up but don't show up on the precursor files I created. Kinliss (talk) 22:13, 25 May 2016 (UTC)
