thread_title:  Link 

message: The claim that Docosanol "was shown to shorten the [sic] healing by 17.5 hours on average" does not appear to be supported by the reference that follows that statement. In fact, the journal article appears to conclude that "n-docosanol had no effect" and that "n-docosanol showed no benefit." See the full article here: http://archderm.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/full/137/9/1153

text: After actually reading the study you cited: It was done in guinea pigs, so it is hardly relevant for a marketed drug for which phase III studies are available.

Talk:Malcolm

message: This disambiguation page dubiously claims "Malcolm, Máel Coluim, and Maol Choluim" are derivatives of the same name and that their meaning (whatever that is in relation to a name) is "tonsured devotee of Saint Columba" or "one wise beyond his ears"
I am extremely dubious of these unsourced claims. Also, the page should be named malcolm (name) rather than just malcolm. Canderra 16:14, 3 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  The name means "tonsured one of St Columba"; "one wise beyong his (y?)ears" is made up nonsense. :) The former "unsourced claim" is common knowledge, and as easy as pie to verfiy. The name Mael Coluim was not coined until the 10th century, and is a conspicuous member of a general pattern of names from the period. "Mael", originally meaning "bald", came to mean "monk" or "devotee", and in Scotland and Ireland was used extensively until the 11th century in combination with a saint's/holy name or adjective. E.g. Máel Brigte (Briget), Máel Petair (Peter), Máel Isu (Jesus), Máel Muire (Mary), Máel Coluim (Columba), etc. After the 11th century, Gilla (boy) replaces Mael, giving names such as Gilla Christ (Christ), Gilla Isu (Jesus), Gilla Coluim (Columba), Gilla Micheil (Michael), etc. If you're genuinely curious, this site has more info and directions to other material.

MediaWiki talk:Copyrightwarning2

message: The Help desk frequently entertains the question: Why was my article deleted? 
Presumably only a few of the (generally new) users who have this question are able to find their way
to the Help desk to ask it, so we are probably seeing just the tip of the iceberg there. I saw an
estimate that Wikipedia deletes about 2,000 articles per day, which would seem to imply the current
warning is insufficiently informative.
Can we edit the first sentence of  to link to the relevant article? I
suggest presenting it like this:
*Please note that all contributions to Wikipedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
Even better would be to re-word the warning from the passive voice to the active voice to make it
shorter, more direct, and more understandable:
* Please note: other contributors may edit, alter, or delete anything you contribute.
Bolding the link should, hopefully, call more attention to it, and possibly increase the number of
new users who RTFM a little before sinking many hours into the futile editing of 
inappropriate content. Thanks for your attention. --Teratornis 16:29, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

* Elements of the model (cite Ten Principles)

Carver has written and contributed to a number of books. Boards That Make a Difference is probably the best known but Reinventing Your Board, co-authored with Miriam Carver in a new edition in 2006, is the easiest for a beginner to understand. It also contains typical board policies that can be modified to fit most organizations.  Other resources that may be helpful include the "Policy Governance Fieldbook", edited by Caroline Oliver, "Getting Started with Policy Governance" by Caroline Oliver, "Corporate Boards that Create Value" by John Carver and Caroline Oliver.
