gpcr figure

Hi- the graphic is really amazing. i wonder if you have it in a mol file or a site whre it can dbe downloaded in that kind of extenssion. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 170.210.73.11 (talk) 20:04, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Hi - I liked your GPCR figures, especially the mechanism one. Could you provide a little detail on how you constructed these? Thanks --smd 23:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)

       Thanks, I used DeepView and POV-Ray. Do you want an in depth tutorial? Bensaccount 02:29, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
           If you have time, I would really appreciate it. I'm sure others would appreciate it as well. --smd 03:19, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

GPCR model

Hi! I found your GPCRs models and they're great! Since they're of public domain I took one of them and included it in my thesis. I referenced the image with your nickname, but I would like in the fisrt place to thank you for the figure, and if you want, to put your real name on the reference.

Thank you,

Glad you liked it. I think it would be cool to have my name (Benjamin Small) on your thesis. Bensaccount 01:04, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Molecular model tutorial

Heres a tutorial on how I make molecular models. If you copy it please give me some credit; it took some work to get it to look right, and I don't get any money for it. Enjoy:


  1. Open the PDBs in DeepView and arrange.
  2. Export as POV scene.
  3. Copy and paste the following code:
//This code sets the camera:

camera { 
location < 0, 0, 20 >
look_at < 0, 0, 0 >
}

#declare cam_pos = <0, 0, 20>;


//This codes for the outline:
#declare dist = 1.03; 
#declare thick1 = 0.05; 
#declare linetex  = texture {pigment {rgb 0} finish {ambient 1}}

#declare trans = transform {rotate 90*clock*y}


#macro scalepoint(center,amt) 
	transform {trans}
	translate -center scale amt translate center
#end


#macro atom(center,rad,thick)
	union {
		sphere {center,rad transform {trans}}
		sphere {center,(rad+thick1) texture {linetex} scalepoint(cam_pos,dist)}  
	        }
#end 


//The following does the color and shading:
#declare ATM_FINISH = finish {ambient rgb <1,1,1> }


#declare textgrey = texture {pigment {slope {vnormalize(<1000,1000,1000>)}
   color_map{[0.625 color rgb <.45,.45,.45>][0.626 color rgb <.5,.5,.5>]}}
   finish {ATM_FINISH}
   }

background { color rgb < 10,10,10 > }



//The fog gives the sense of distance that is lacking from most other molecular models:
fog {
  fog_type   2
  distance   4
  color      rgbt <0,0,0,.1>
  fog_offset 1
  fog_alt    .0001
  up <0,0,1>
}


//Here is where you put the objects:
object {atom(<0,0,0> .4, thick1)
texture {textgrey}
}

4. Search and replace

sphere {

with

object{atom(

5. Search and replace

_ }

with

_ , thick1)}

6. Search and replace

pigment{ colour red 0.75 green 0.75 blue 0.75} finish{ ATM_FINISH }

with

textgrey


Awesome, thanks again. I'd pretty much worked out a similar strategy, but yours is a little more succinct. --smd 05:33, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

An image or media file that you uploaded or altered, Image:Thiophene.PNG, has been listed at Wikipedia:Images and media for deletion. Please see the discussion to see why this is (you may have to search for the title of the image to find its entry), if you are interested in it not being deleted. Thank you.

Image needed

The Rutherford model wiki needs an image exactly like your Hydrogen_atom.svg‎ except with the atom diameter labeled as about 10^-10 m and the nuclear diameter labeled as < 3.4 x 10^-14 meters (which is what Rutherfored measured it at, though it is actually only 1/5th of this). The image is important because in this model the nucleus has no structure, just as in your hydrogen image. The image used in the aticle now is less than satisfactory, because it shows nuclea substructures not known, or even imagined, in 1911. SBHarris 01:40, 18 November 2007 (UTC)

Caffeine is the most widely used psychoactive substance in the world...?

Hi! You inserted that picture with the cited claim into Drugs. Already in September the tag "citation needed" was added. But nobody seems to be able. Can you prove this claim? Because I suppose that much more cigarettes are smoked than cups of coffee are drunk in the world. But maybe you know better?

wp:citation needed

I'm a bit confused by your edit summary, "(Lets keep this one about the template (we really don't need any more of these pages))".

Since is the target page from the [citation needed] that's inserted in articles, it's important that this explains to new users what to do in as few words as possible.

The problem with simply "triaging" people to other policies, without also giving an explanation of what to do on this page, is that historically, people have not read those policies -- because, frankly, most policies are very poorly written.

What exactly did you mean by your edit summary? Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 00:53, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Oh, and thanks for supporting my proposal at WT:NPOV!! Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 00:54, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

  • Jesus christ. 1) you didn't answer my question 2) you ignored the fact that I thanked you for something, and that I invited you to work with me at a wikiproject (I saw the links on your User page and thought we had interests in common) 3) you're being hostile. You don't have to be nice to strangers, but I will ask you to show a little WP:Etiquette. My god. Andrew Gradman talk/WP:Hornbook 04:10, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
1. The answer is on the appropriate discussion page, 2. You can't force people to join a wikiproject. 3. Calling me hostile for not saying "your welcome" when you thanked me makes me wonder if you deserve whatever you are thanking me for.  :). Bensaccount (talk) 05:12, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Policy

I've created Wikipedia pages also, but one person's writing, however accurate, does not make something a policy. You have to get community input, you have to show that there is the need for the policy, you have to propose it, and you have to get community consensus. What you have written is a very good essay that explains a facet of our NPOV policy. Labeling it as an essay is not a bad thing. What the tag does is show that it is the work of a small number of people, in this case, one person. -- SamuelWantman 04:24, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

How do you think NPOV came about? Bensaccount (talk) 04:34, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

It is a founding policy. Have you read Wikipedia:Policies_and_guidelines? If you are proposing a new policy, than label it as a proposal and publicize it broadly. I would say that your essay is already covered by existing policy and is an essay that does a very good job of explaining one aspect of that policy. I am not saying that it is wrong, and I am not saying that it should or shouldn't be elevated to become a policy. But if you want to elevate it to policy, you need to generate community support and show the need for a new policy. Wikipedia pages are community process pages, proposals, policies, guidelines or essays. If they are not tagged as one of these, they are likely to be deleted. The work of a single editor is either a proposal or an essay. It is your choice which you'd like it to be. -- SamuelWantman 05:02, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

I will do what I like with it, but right now it is what it is. If slapping tags on things makes you feel important, go ahead. Calling it an essay, (even though it isn't) will make it look less official, so people will feel that much less need to heed it. Bensaccount (talk) 05:12, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

If you think it should be official, perhaps you should try adding some of the clarifications you have made to WP:NPOV, or alternatively, suggest that your page be made a subpage of that policy. That policy's talk page would be the best forum to start the discussion. -- SamuelWantman 07:16, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
If you think it shouldn't be official, you should say so. And say why. Otherwise you are just promoting bureaucracy for the sake of bureaucracy. Bensaccount (talk) 17:05, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I think the point that you explain already IS official because it is part of WP:NPOV, and I don't think there needs to be a policy page explaining the subtleties of every aspect of every guideline or rule. If it is controversial, or not widely applied, you should start a discussion that attempts to reach community consensus. You can't have it both ways. If it is uncontroversial then a separate policy page is not needed. If it is controversial, then you need to start discussions. My concern is not with the sake of maintining bureaucracy, it is the opposite. I do not want to add more policies if they are not needed. -- SamuelWantman 18:56, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
It is widely applied, and it is related to NPOV but it is not part of NPOV (what part were you thinking of?). If it is controversial, the controversy is with those who misuse NPOV (for whom every conflict results in adding opinions). The purpose of the page is to limit the precedence of opinions over facts that results from sloppy NPOV misuse. By ensuring the page looks unofficial you help prevent this from happening. Bensaccount (talk) 19:45, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
I am not the appropriate audience for your argument. You don't have to convince me to agree with what you have written, I already agree. But, if you want to call this a policy instead of an essay, then start the discussion on the talk page of NPOV and at the village pump and change the tag to {{proposal}}. I know of no policy that was the result of one person's work. Start the discussion. I'll support your effort. -- SamuelWantman 23:26, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for the support. If you feel like following such a process go ahead. Right now what bothers me is the tag you added. I infer that you feel like some proper procedure would be violated if the tag was not in place. Since you want to play Wikilawyering perhaps you could direct me to this procedure. Bensaccount (talk) 03:14, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
Virtually all Wikipedia pages are tagged with something. I don't think I am alone in thinking that if a page is untagged then it is probably newly created, obscure, and/or irrelevant. So having a tag on it indicates that the author is aware of how policy and guidelines evolve. To my eyes, and I think many others, having it tagged will make it look more legitimate, not less. It also makes everything more transparent. My first question when I say your page was "what is this?". It was clear to me from looking at the history and the discussion page that it was an essay. I tagged it as such to make it more transparent to the next reader. The life cycle of a policy is discussed here. -- SamuelWantman 09:02, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
Maybe you should have read it instead, It usually helps if you are trying to find out what something is. Point me to the policy that says every page must be tagged. Bensaccount (talk) 16:49, 8 September 2009 (UTC)
I don't know if there is anything that explicitly says you must add a tag, but that is the customary practice. Tagging puts the Wikipedia pages into categories and make their classification transparent to the user. There is language that says that all Wikipedia-space pages are either community process pages, proposals, policies, guidelines or essays, and there are tags for all of these types. I don't recall seeing any Wikipedia-space page that does not have a tag at the top, at least not for long. -- SamuelWantman 01:06, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Try this logic on bigger fish first. Go tag the village pump. Bensaccount (talk) 04:06, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
