Talk:PTEN (gene)

Untitled edit

Some text in this article was originally taken from http://ghr.nlm.nih.gov/gene=pten (public domain)

Intro edit

Removed the first clause of the article, "In molecular biology,...". PTEN isn't only a protein when inside of the realm of molecular biology. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AUebersohn (talkcontribs) 22:24, 5 May 2011 (UTC)Reply


References edit

References need sorting out by someone who has read the papers in question. I added the wikify tag.

Wrong title for article edit

An obvious problem here - a gene is not a protein, and a gene is normally spelt in italics (PTEN), therefore the title PTEN (gene) is an odd mix and clearly does not adhere to convention. You therefore need to rename or rewrite the article - I'd opt for retitling since it is the easier option, say, PTEN (protein). I'll do so later if no one objects.

I've italicized the title for the time being, the problem is still that the article concentrates more on the protein rather than the gene, so something will need to be done. Hzh (talk) 13:39, 31 December 2015 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in PTEN (gene) edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of PTEN (gene)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 13:56, 20 May 2016 (UTC)Reply
