You're welcome
editI'm happy that I ran across the article. Sometimes those tags stay in place for months, just because no one happened to notice it.
I agree that Wikipedia is an incredibly confusing, overly complicated place. Thanks for being persistent enough to figure it out. In the future, if you run into any sort of problems, we've got a good group of folks at WikiProject Medicine that know a lot about the byzantine ways of Wikipedia. Just leave a note at WT:MED if you need help sorting something out. WhatamIdoing (talk) 17:31, 27 September 2011 (UTC)
Formal mediation has been requested
editThe Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "Extrinsic extensor muscles of the hand". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 16 April 2012.
Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.

"Chemotherapy"
edit
I am surprised that you characterize the "Chemotherapy" article as "crap". I think that it is okay. The main problem with it is lack of references in some sections. The prose needs to brushed up. But otherwise, the article is more-or-less factually accurate and complete.
I thought I'd mention it here because it is off-topic to the main discussion. Axl ¤ [Talk] 09:45, 2 May 2012 (UTC)

Photograph on Intravenous regional anesthesia
editHi, I am sorry but I do not have any photograph of more modern equipment (this one wasn't mine either, it comes straight from commons). Adding a note is simple however: just add your text to the caption= part of the infobox. --WS (talk) 07:40, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
