nomegestrol acetate

Your diagram for nomogestrol acetate is identical to the structure of megestrol acetate, yet different MW and CAS. In looking at the structure, i noticed a mistake. You show a methyl group attached to Carbon-10, whereas it should be a hydrogen.

Thanks for catching the problem and letting me know. I have now corrected File:nomegestrol acetate.svg, replacing the methyl group with a hydrogen. Ed (Edgar181) 20:18, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

When I make an error, leave me a message (Important, please read)

I don't know enough about some topics, as I am just beginning to edit and don't have that much experience. If I made a mistake, please leave a message on my talk page rather than block me. I am getting very annoyed by this! 76.226.67.70

Instead of continually evading your block as Dy11111 and continuing to make the same kinds of edits that led to your block, you need to request an unblock at w:en:user talk:Dy11111, addressing the reasons for your block. Ed (Edgar181) 14:06, 29 January 2013 (UTC)

Hopane

Please notice the mistake in your structure of Hopane: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Hopane.svg#filelinks The isopropyl functional group is on C-21 and not on C-20!

See refs: http://www.chem.qmul.ac.uk/iupac/sectionF/terpenoid/terp25a.html http://webbook.nist.gov/cgi/cbook.cgi?ID=R553565

Yes, you're right. Thanks for catching the problem and letting me know. I have now corrected it. Ed (Edgar181) 14:22, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Unfortunately the image is distorted now. ;-) Best, Jan 17:12, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

The image displays correctly for me. If the image is distorted on your computer, I think that can be solved by refreshing your browser or clearing your browser's cache. Ed (Edgar181)

Also one of the methyl sterochemistries is not in agreement with that IUPAC Section F ref (I added an annotation tag on it). DMacks (talk) 18:27, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Yup, another error. The sterechemistry of the listing at Chemical Abstracts matches the one in your link, so I have flipped the stereochemistry at that position. Thanks, both of you, for your careful attention. Ed (Edgar181) 19:10, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Looks great now thanks! Hope you're feeling better! DMacks (talk) 22:36, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Could you set an expiry date for my indefinite block

I don't know "User:Dy11111". Can you prove my actions wrong? If you think I know Dy11111, have CheckUser confirm this "sock of Dy11111" thing. El Ectric 201 (talk) 11:03, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I might be willing to unblock you if you stopped the repeated childish behavior. But at the very least you need to request an unblock at w:en:user talk:Dy11111, addressing the reasons for your block. Ed (Edgar181) 15:22, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

I said I DON'T KNOW user:Dy11111!! But they might request an unblock. (talk) 11:03, 29 March 2013 (UTC)

This is fun...

We were so focused in the CH₃O- vs H₃CO- issue, that nobody noticed the blunder I did in the original of File:3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propionic acid 2.svg (I asked it to be renamed to File:3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)propionic acid 2.svg. Interesting, isn't it? Albmont (talk) 12:14, 27 May 2013 (UTC)

Sometimes it is too easy to focus on the details and miss the obvious. Ed (Edgar181) 13:02, 28 May 2013 (UTC)

The factual accuracy of the chemical structure File:Clorotepine.svg is disputed

Dispute notification

The chemical structure File:Clorotepine.svg you uploaded has been tagged as disputed and is now listed in Category:Disputed chemical diagrams. Files in this category are deleted after one month if there is no upload of a corrected version and if there is no objection from the uploader or other users. Please discuss on the file talk page if you feel that the dispute is inappropriate. If you agree with the dispute, you can either upload a corrected version or simply allow the file to be deleted. In all cases, please do not take the dispute personally. It is never intended as such. Thank you! --DMacks (talk) 05:30, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

(the dispute-tag is actually on the talk-page) DMacks (talk) 05:30, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for letting me know. I have corrected it now. Ed (Edgar181) 13:33, 17 June 2013 (UTC)

Problem with a photo

I have tried update this photo File:Localizacion Ria de Arousa.Galicia.png, but it isn't updated. Do you know what's the problem? Regards. --Vivaelcelta {talk  · contributions} 18:55, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

Fixed. It was because of the cache. --Vivaelcelta {talk  · contributions} 18:57, 25 August 2013 (UTC)

File:Ethylaluminium sesquichloride.svg

This image and filename are not consistent with each other...the diagram has 4 ethyls and 2 chloros, en:diethylaluminium chloride, not 3 Et + 3 Cl of en:ethylaluminium sesquichloride. DMacks (talk) 14:23, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

The image is currently unused and I can't remember what it was intended for, so I'm not sure if I got the name wrong, or the structure wrong. As you see fit, please feel free to rename it if it can be used, or to nominate it for deletion if it can't. Ed (Edgar181) 15:00, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Tagged for rename...it's the only one we have of the dimer for Category:Diethylaluminium chloride. DMacks (talk) 21:10, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for taking care of it. Regards, Ed (Edgar181) 11:33, 31 August 2013 (UTC)

File:Quinone resonance.png

Are those oxygen-radicals in the aromatic-looking forms? Low res, so they look somewhat like a negative charges instead, which wouldn't be correct. Is might be worth keeping this diradical form, redrawn to be more clear (maybe for some sort of photochemistry?)--but calling it simple "resonance" might be getting into some weird spin-states. DMacks (talk) 17:07, 10 September 2013 (UTC)

That image was created just to answer a chemistry question on my talk page back in 2008. It wasn't intended to be used in any article. I suppose it could be deleted now. Ed (Edgar181) 17:28, 12 September 2013 (UTC)

I'll leave it up to you how to handle it, either deletion or just a note on the description that this is part of some discussion not exactly what the title suggests. DMacks (talk) 17:38, 12 September 2013 (UTC)
