Categories edit

The accepted way to handle the linking between the different journals of a publisher is not to link them all to each others, which is much too hard to maintain when one adds a title, nor to link them to the article for the publisher, which is also hard to maintain when it changes name, but rather to make a category, which adds them automatically: according to the rules for categories, this would be  :Category:John Wiley & Sons, and should be placed by pasting [[Category:John Wiley & Sons]] at the foot of each page. I've fixed all of the existing pages. DGG 03:46, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Abbreviations edit

The title abbreviations to be used in the infobox for chemistry journals are the CASSI standard abbreviations as used by Chemical Abstracts Service. Please don't use the short acronyms that you use in your web site or your catalogs, they are not appropriate here. I leave it to you to go back and change them all, when the block goes off. While you're at it, you can add the name and institution of the present editor in chief of each journal to the text, and also the 2005 impact factor. DGG 04:01, 16 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

I was asked by the Marketing Manager for Wiley Chemistry journals to add all of her titles to Wikipedia, because she noticed that most of them were on your "List of missing journals" and she wanted to help fill in the blanks. I actually work for John Wiley & Sons and so I did actually have permission to use the text that was in the articles because we own the copyright. They were based on the Aims and Scope of each of the journals which we feel isn't biased but merely a statement that explains what the journal covers and hopes to achieve. The link from the site you gave earlier has actually taken our text from the Wiley InterScience page and used it on their site.

If you feel that we shouldn't be adding these journals ourselves as it's a conflict of interest, can you recommend another way? Would it be better if the Editor of the journal created the entry instead? Dchambers101 10:03, 18 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Officially, we discourage COI, but you are right that in practice it does help build up articles, especially in areas were we don't quite have enough interested editors. So there is no reason why you cannot add pages, but be aware that they will be very closely examined. Therefore they should stay unquestionably within the rules, which I'd like to explain further.
  1. It's frequent for people expert at the customary sorts of advertising and publicity to feel a little out of place when working here; I & some others have worked with a fair number by now, getting them used to our style and requirements.
  2. What we want from articles describing journals (and other products) is a description of he product, with some sort of reference. We do not want material talking in general terms about how good it is or who should buy it. We want information only, not persuasion. The editor actually has a conflict of interest also, although that may not be noticed as easily since it will be one at a time. I may notice, since I try to examine all new journal articles.
But I don't think you're clear yet about the rules:
  1. You must explicitly donate the copyright for every page and for every image, using the forms as listed on WP:Copyright. Each time you need to ay that you are authorized to do so, and that you donate the text under GFDL, with no restrictions on its use. Read the GFDL license first--this means that the text you release can be copied and used and modified by anyone, even for commercial use--it's essentially the same as putting it in the public domain, except that there's a link back to where it came from. It is not reversible. But you may not want to use the text:
  2. Only factual language is acceptable describing the journal. You can list its principal field. For the journal that had sections I did this by listing the 4 sections. The usual paragraph on its aims is considered advertising copy, as is a broad listing of all the related fields of science. Similarly saying that it will be of interest to all researchers in chemistry (etc). Taking for example the version of Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, I'll explain in italics.

"The Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering (usually abbreviated as APJ), is a peer-reviewed scientific journal, published since 2006 by John Wiley & Sons. In six issues per year, OK so far it publishes high quality papers and special topic issues in chemical-engineering related and specialised areas.all journals say they publish high quality papers; all journals with chemical engineering in the title cover chemical engineering. If the title is non-descriptive, then there's a point in such statements. That a journal publishes review articles or symposia is worth mentioning--we don't at the moment have classification for them, but they are planned. Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering will focus particular attention on the key areas of; Process Application (separation, polymer, catalysis, nanotechnology, ferrous metallurgy), Energy and Environmental Technology (natural resources, coal gasification, gas liquidation, air pollution control, water treatment, waste utilisation and management) and Food, Pharmaceutical & Bioengineering (biomaterials, bioprocess, biochemical engineering) this is simply a list of all the applied fields; if said at all, I'd write It emphasizes applied rather than theoretical studies. but dont repeat the name. of the journal too often. Formerly known as Developments in Chemical Engineering and Mineral Processing: The Australasian Research Journal, published by Curtin University of Technology in print only (ISSN:0969-1855). we want this information, and in fact we'd like a statement of what formats a journal is published in--many humanities journals for example are still not online. 1 Audience/Readership Readership will include researchers working in chemical or process engineering –particularly in the emerging areas of fluid mechanics, particle science and biotechnology, nanotechnology, catalysis and process systems engineering. The Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering is of interest to professional chemical engineers working in industries that involve chemical processes." we do not want this. it's obvious, unless the orientation is such as to say "meant for practical engineers rather than academic researchers" or the like. '

  1. What else do we want: actually, quite a lot there are many useful things you can say: * The name & institution of the editor in chief, but usually just the editor in chief. Some publications with extremely notable past editors in chief should list them, but it's usually excessive. We use this information to establish the notability of the scientists concerned--any ed. in chief of a major journal will get a WP article. Not the whole board. * You can say whether its published from the US or the UK. *You can say if its included in major online services beyond your own, such as ebsco or proquest & if there is an embargo, as there usually is for journals like these, how long it is. *You can give the circulation. *You can and should give the major indexing services. Not all the little ones like Aluminum Abstracts, but: ChemAbs, Web of Science, Scopus, Inspec, Compendex, Medline/PubMed, Biosis, Psych Info, or the analogous ones in other fields. This is a major factor in establishing notability for a journal. *You can and should give the impact factor. The current ones are 05; the 06s probably wont be available until July or August, & they should then be updated. Only the most recent should be given. It can also give the rank, but give it as 4th out of the 80 journals in ___. It means more than just 4th, because 4th could be 4th out of 8. Do not give the price; do not give the purchase options. Use the Wiley and Sons category and the subject-journal categories--the higher level ones are filled automatically. Do not link to other wiley journals or to wiley, the categories will do it.
there's another thing I'd like to try--list the four highest citation papers ever published. I think the people who dont know about scientific journals will understand that.
Give references to UlrichsWeb, usually where you give the circulation, and to JCR, where you give the impact factor. If there's anything else available, give it.
and one final practical point from my experience here--don't do more than 2 at a time. Ten a week will make a difference here, and we want the articles.

Questions always welcom. I'll check back here. DGG 03:10, 19 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned non-free image (Image:POC cover.gif) edit

Thanks for uploading Image:POC cover.gif. 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. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 06:23, 21 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

Please check the new MRC article edit

OK, after a meeting with the Marketing Manager, we've decided to take it one journal at a time and do it properly. I can obtain most of the imformation you mentioned fairly easily. For the first one at least I will post the article to my user page and ask for your input before publishing the article, as you have much more experience in this than me.

Please can you review the article I have created about Magnetic Resonance in Chemistry on my user page. I'm not all that familiar with the Abstracting and Indexing services so please feel free to remove any that you think are not notable enough to be worth including, and also to make any other edits you feel are necesssary. Dchambers101 10:57, 25 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

  1. Only enter the obvious services if you are not familiar with thm all. WoS, Scopus & ChmAbs are the obvious ones for chemistry. Science citation index is redundant with WoS. JCR is not an indexing service.
  2. The Manual of Style for WP, WP:MOS, Specifies: no R symbol (or C or TM), names of people not prefixed with Dr. in most cases. Titlesof articles in ordinary " " double quotes--not bold, titles of journals in italics; titles of journals at the head of articles I think better in plain bold. not bold italics.
  3. People get impatient at long lists--use ititials not full first & middle name only for article authors.
  4. get the number of citations for the articles : enter as (cited 99 times) with a footnote to WoS. Dont just use a list, use words to introduce it.

I will then take a second look for more details. DGG 01:17, 2 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

fixes edit

the point of some of these is to decrease the amount of apparent emphasis, and the links to commercial publishers or organizations: 1. The titles of journal article go in either single quotes (UK style) ' or double quotes (US style) " -- they do not go in Bold Face (three single quotes) or italics (two single quotes) -- In general avoid bold face except for earlier or alternate names of journals 2. For the indexes, don't link the names of the index publishers, just the indexes I fixed this also. I suggest also putting it into a paragraph. Link to Ulrich's as a source, not the publisher. 3. The article titles as found in Web of Science often need editing for compactness: change to the form used in most journals, not (Volume 32, Issue 11, Pages 670 - 678) but 32(11):670–678 (19xx) (I didn't change them because you have to go back & get the year--Wos usually lists the year at the front. Watch out for inconsistent WoS formatting for earlier papers, by the way. 3a. Section headings should be as short as possible , use Highest cited papers, (caps as shown). 4. The links in the refs should include the exact url when possible. it is for Wiley. I don;t use them for WoS or Ulrich's because they are dynamic web pages--though we may be asked to include the search string) 4a the formatting of the two https didn't come out right in the box. I suggest you just give the journal information page and then list both that and the table of contents in a section callled External Links, following the references. And then there are some more details. I'll keep an eye out for it. DGG (talk) 17:45, 18 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Amended edit

Thanks, I've made the amendments you suggested. I've also figured out how to use the references function properly (I hope). Let me know if you have any more feedback. Dchambers101 11:23, 2 July 2007 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Image:PCA_cover.gif edit

 

Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:PCA_cover.gif. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Please be aware that a fair use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for images used under the fair use policy require both a copyright tag and a fair use rationale.

However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 12:05, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Image copyright problem with File:Bio cover new.gif edit

Thanks for uploading File:Bio cover new.gif. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Speedy deletion nomination of File:SIA cover.gif edit

 

A tag has been placed on File:SIA cover.gif requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused redundant copy (all pixels the same or scaled down) of an image in the same file format, which is on Wikipedia (not on Commons), and all inward links have been updated.

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 - if no such tag exists then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hangon tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page 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 page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

The article Wiley Interdisciplinary Reviews: Computational Molecular Science has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

New journal, too young to have established notability yet. No independent sources, not included in any major selective databases. Does not meet WP:NJournals or WP:GNG

While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. The speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Crusio (talk) 10:40, 31 March 2011 (UTC)Reply

ArbCom elections are now open! edit

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
