Structural Genomics Consortium

(@WikiDan61:)

Yes, I agree. I should be neutral. It is not clear how to communicate (back and forth) on this medium. As such, I thought I would simply make a massive change and see what the result is. While I have learned my lesson, I am still at a bit of a loss as to what is the best way to cite evidence.

SZAckloo:
  1. Communication on this platform: generally, it's best to keep conversations in a single place. Since you had originally asked for advice at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Molecular Biology, that's where I answered you. Our conversation about your edits to Structural Genomics Consortium would have been best kept at that venue so other experts (I certainly am no expert in this particular field) could weigh in on the changes.
  2. Citing evidence: I would recommend you read Wikipedia:Citing sources. This will give you a good start on how to properly cite sources, and which sources would be good to cite.

Hi, I wanted to pop in and offer a little more information on citing a reference. Right now, you're doing fine by using the citation templates (identified by the {{cite ... }}. What you can do now, instead of using the "numbers" you're manually inputting, is give the references names. This is done by changing the <ref> tag in front of the template for each one to say something like this: <ref name="INSERTNAMEHERE">. Then, when you want to use that reference somewhere, you can simply put <ref name="INSERTNAMEHERE" /> in the code, and it'll automatically link that reference with the little blue number. It's recommended you use a name that identifies the specific source, for example by naming it something like "Author Year" (ex: <ref name="Smith 2020">) or some other feature like the title of the website/publisher/journal (ex: <ref name="CNN03042020"> to reference a CNN article from March 4 2020. This also makes it easier for yourself and other editors to reuse references and verify contents, because it provides links to and from each reference at the bottom of the page in the text itself. Please feel free to ping me here (using {{ping|Berchanhimez}}) if you have any questions or need help :) -bɜ:ʳkənhɪmez (User/say hi!) 02:28, 2 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

  1. Citation: {{ping|Berchanhimez}} Hi! This is very, very useful. Much appreciated! I will continue to communicate on the changes to the original request/discussion thread [1] (SZAckloo (talk) 13:45, 2 September 2020 (UTC))Reply

Useful info on references

edit

Good work so far on the SGC page. Something that will help you edit the references a bit better is this tutorial page. When re-using the same reference multiple times, it is best to use the visualeditor tool. Just adding the numbers in plain text will stop working if any of the references are added or removed. Also, it is recommended to hyperlink to other wikipedia pages within the text rather than outside ones (e.g. protein phosphorylation rather than protein phosphorylation). You can still include external links down in the External_links section (guidance). Hope that helps! T.Shafee(Evo&Evo)talk 11:45, 4 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

Creating a Wikipedia page for Target 2035

edit

Dear Wikipedia. I would like to create a new page that describes Target 2035. In short, it is a 15 year goal (launched last November) to discover a chemogenomic tool for every protein in the proteome. It plans to accomplish this by creating a federation of scientists from around the world who will work synergistically.

Target 2035 has a website https://www.target2035.net/ and the main reference is here https://www.target2035.net/read-more .


Thank you. SZAckloo (talk) 12:46, 21 March 2021 (UTC)Reply

Creating a Wikipedia page for Target 2035

edit

Dear Wikipedia users and administrators. I made a request to create a page for Target 2035. I may not have used the correct approach to this.

Target 2035 is a global initiative to discover open access pharmacological tools for every protein in the proteome.

Target 2035 is being led or coordinated by the Structural Genomics Consortium described here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_Genomics_Consortium .

https://www.target2035.net/

Cite error: There are <ref> tags on this page without content in them (see the help page).https://doi.org/10.1016/j.drudis.2019.06.020 - peer-reviewed article describing the initiative.

I would like to create a page for Target 2035 but disclose that I do work at the Structural Genomics Consortium.

I am therefore seeking advice on what to do. One option I see is requesting editors of the page.

Please advise.
