Hi Dave!
Please add your profile to the bottom "additional online ambassadors" section of Wikipedia:Online Ambassadors/Mentors. If you'd like to be a mentor, then add it the top section, "available mentors," instead; we can just find someone else to look after your mentees when you're away.
If you have any questions about the ambassador role or what you're interested in doing as an Online Ambassador (whether mentoring, pitching in in other ways, or something else), please let me know.--Sage Ross - Online Facilitator, Wikimedia Foundation (talk) 17:41, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

Hello! Seems to me you've made a mistake in the article. The term "notochaetae" usually refers to "bristles" not "tentacles". As far as I understood these worms have ten tentacle-like anterior appendages made of soft tissue (a pair of palps and four pairs of branchiae). The notochaetae (dorsal bristles) are chitinous structures in the dorsal part of parapodia. You may find some details in the video and the image. Possessing long anterior tentacles is rather common feature in polychaetes especially in cirratulids. However they are not so long in motile benthic forms. The morphology of notochaetes of Teuthidodrilus are posed as unusual in the abstract of Osborn's et al. paper. Unfortunately I've no access to the full text paper (probably you have it) so I can't get to know what the «concavo-convex paddles» are and whether such paddle is a single bristle or a group of bristles.

I agree that xanthogranulomatous pyelonephritis needed to be merged with the "main" pyelonephritis article. Unfortunately the former is stuffed with some really poor-quality sources that spectacularly fail WP:MEDRS (e.g. case reports in French). Despite pyelonephritis being a common condition that often affects young people, the article does not get a lot of attention and indeed it is not easy finding good sources.
Do you think we could collaborate on making this article a bit better? Unfortunately we have no editor with a particular interest in urology. JFW | T@lk 06:40, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
Great. I am a generalist, so your expertise is very helpful when it comes to identifying suitable sources and striking the right balance in that article. JFW | T@lk 07:20, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Even though it's been quiet on-wiki, the Wikipedia Ambassador Program has been busy over the last few months getting ready for the next term. We're heading toward over 80 classes in the US, across all disciplines. You'll see courses start popping up here, and this time we want to match one or more Online Ambassadors to each class based on interest or expertise in the subject matter. If you see a class that you're interested, please contact the professor and/or me; the sooner the Ambassadors and professors get in communication, the better things go. Look for more in the coming weeks about next term.
In the meantime, with a little help I've identified all the articles students did significant work on in the last term. Many of the articles have never been assessed, or have ratings that are out of date from before the students improved them. Please help assess them! Pick a class, or just a few articles, and give them a rating (and add a relevant WikiProject banner if there isn't one), and then update the list of articles.
Once we have updated assessments for all these articles, we can get a better idea of how quality varied from course to course, and which approaches to running Wikipedia assignments and managing courses are most effective.

Hi DiverDave--
I've come to you looking for someone relatively qualified in urology and the physiology of sexual function. It seems that at least a few articles pertaining to these topics are frequently edited by male adolescents. This first came to my attention a few days ago, with a move request from Nocturnal penile tumescence to "Morning wood", which so far has attracted only a few comments.
If you would care to look at Talk:Nocturnal penile tumescence#Requested move, you'll also find there my comments concerning the article on Erection, which has a See also list at the bottom that might be worth checking out as well. Thanks for any help you might be able to provide on a professional and encyclopedic level. Milkunderwood (talk) 23:15, 16 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi, DiverDave. What'sthe source for the coordinates at List of largest giant sequoias? I checked the top two versus GNIS,and they were different. Any help you can provide would be great! —hike395 (talk) 11:44, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
As an aside, it seems that you and I are both big fans of the California desert and mountains, etc. I will be heading back to the Mojave Desert in October. Let me know if you're interested in meeting up for a hike in Death Valley, Mojave NP, or Joshua Tree NP. Kind regards, DiverDave (talk) 03:54, 8 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi
I'm contacting you because, as a participant at Wikiproject Medicine, you may be interested in a new multinational non-profit organization we're forming at m:Wikimedia Medicine. Even if you don't want to be actively involved, any ideas you may have about our structure and aims would be very welcome on the project's talk page.
Our purpose is to help improve the range and quality of free online medical content, and we'll be working with like-minded organizations, such as the World Health Organization, professional and scholarly societies, medical schools, governments and NGOs - including Translators Without Borders.
Hope to see you there! --Anthonyhcole (talk) 07:25, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Chiloé Wigeon, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Occipital (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

![]() | On 14 March 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Panoploscelis, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the male spiny lobster katydid was described for the first time in 2003? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Panoploscelis. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page. |
