Write-a-Thon

Hi Milt:

I will not be available for the Writeathon, but I think Venn diagram is a great candidate article because it is such a generally used idea. It can be supplemented with examples and the history of the concept. Maybe you could be persuaded to sponsor it in my absence? John R. Brews 17:36, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Done. Milton Beychok 21:20, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

Officially thanking Milt

Hi, Milt -- the Editorial Board would like to officially thank you for all the effort and expertise that you put into your job as Editorial Personnel Manager. The EC motion about this is at http://ec.citizendium.org/wiki/EC:2011-034, and if you check the Recent Changes in the Forum you will find two entries about this, as well as the official notice on the EC page of the CZ wiki.

Once again, many thanks! The Secretary of the Editorial Council, Hayford Peirce 14:52, 21 July 2011 (UTC)

Me, too, Milt. I'd like to thank you as well. You've done a yeoman's job and I miss you already! D. Matt Innis 00:14, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Thanks indeed, Milt, and also for your serving as treasurer. I hope this gives you some more time to concentrate on writing fine articles. --Daniel Mietchen 18:20, 22 July 2011 (UTC)

Warmest thanks Milt; you've done a great job.Gareth Leng 10:05, 23 July 2011 (UTC)

If you are unsure of Johns intentions in correctly identifying copyright abuse on this site, then ask him (rather than undoing his edits without discussion). This is a wiki you know. David Finn 08:43, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

David, I am not a Biology editor nor am I a copyright lawyer. I am at a complete loss as to why you asked me to look into this matter. As for your statement of: "then ask him (rather than undoing his edits without discussion)", I find that quite offensive. Have you nothing better to do with your time? Milton Beychok 15:00, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Come on guys, I know tensions are high, but let's be nice, please? Robert W King 15:33, 8 August 2011 (UTC)

Stood

Thanks for having corrected my horrible mistake in Roman alphabet.--Domergue Sumien 11:06, 25 August 2011 (UTC)

EPA

Hi Milt, I'ver removed your name from the EPA list. Hopefully, that will take care of it. Thanks for carrying us through the last couple tough years. We couldn't have done it without you! Take care of that back and your wife and I hope that returning to editing is a more stress relieving experience for you. If not, let me know! D. Matt Innis 00:36, 27 August 2011 (UTC)

Some questions about the upcoming elections

Milt, I've replied on my talk page. Regards, Anton Sweeney 19:34, 14 September 2011 (UTC)

ASIMO approval

Hello Mr. Milton Beychok. Could you take a look at the article on ASIMO and see if it is fit for approval? I think some things could be rewritten in the latter sections about the New ASIMO and the All-new ASIMO . (Chunbum Park 02:48, 21 December 2011 (UTC))

Hi, Chunbum: I have briefly read the ASIMO article which is in the Robotics Workgroup and it strikes me as being exceedingly well written. I want to commend you for having produced such a very well written article.

I have also read our new Approvals Process (Regulation EC:R-2011-027) at here and I am confused as to whether or not I can start the Approval process. That new regulation states "Any Editor or Approval Manager may start the Approval process for an article." For example, does that mean that an Editor in the Agriculture Workgroup or the Linguistics Workgroup can start the Approval of an article in the Robotics Workgroup? That does not strike me as logical.

I am an Editor in the Engineering Workgroup and the Chemistry Workgroup ... but I am not an Editor in the Robotics Workgroup. Nor am I an expert in robotics. So I am not sure that I am entitled to start the Approval of an article in the Robotics Workgroup.

I think you should take this up with our Approvals Manager, Joe Quick ... and let me know what he says. Happy Holidays!! Milton Beychok 04:11, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
