This will probably be my first complaint about anything happening in the game of EvE :/
Today i bought a large stockpile of ore for a large sum of isk, after having it all hauled in my station i for some reason decided to click "show info", its just a thing i often do even if i have no reason to do it. Now attempting to click the "Show info" button on my large pile of unrefined ore i accidently clicked a recently added (or at least one i haven't noticed before) button called "Refine" which caused me (with lvl 1 refining) to refine the entire bulk of ore ACCIDENTLY. Now this is a huge setback for me financially because mainly i dont have any refining skills and wasnt going to refine this myself and secondly, i spent a long time getting that ore :/
Maybe add an "Are you sure you want to do this you idiot?" pop up ?
edit: quick summary, i lost 10 million isk due to clicking the wrong button...

All most as good as when i sold an armageddon for 6 mill instead of 60 mill many moons ago.
i still cringe about that when i think about it.

Thats just bad, *shudder*
Really think they should add a confirmation button on that refine option though, especially as it's right next to the info button

Ouch - agreed that a confirm box would be helpful.
I'd love for them to add a right click recycle option as well but each time I think about it, the above scenario springs to mind and I just know, I'll do the same to the Scorp as I did to my Moa once (I was just wondering what minerals it had in it and clicked the "ok" button!)

Yeah you have to be really careful what you press, some random ship was at the location of my kill mission so I chucked all I had at time at it. Next thing I knew concord was flying around me eating my shield for lunch. Lost two thorax by been trigger happy =/ Usually do show info to make double sure these days.

that does kinda suck, by clicking on refine, it should bring up the mineral quote you get when you refine/reprocess through the refinery.
/emote refined a giant can full of all my best mods and guns, I thought it was some kind of bug with the cans that gave me all that megacyte

Yeh, right-click menus are dangerous and inefficient for that very reason and confirmation dialog boxes are remedies...
I think a little wider spacing and even a separator would be appropriate there, along with the confirmation dialog.
But just get rid of it.. I mean, the only place that makes any sense is in a station that has the refinery icon there anyway. Even in Shiva, I would think that the mobile refineries will have a similar graphical button you have to consciously click.

It should be one of those buttons that runs away from your mouse pointer.....
