I just archived the last batch of postings.

That is why this page looks so empty and desolate at the moment. Milton Beychok 01:41, 6 October 2008 (CDT)

changes

All these changes (move tab gone too) relate to a software update, as far as i can tell. I assume they will be restored with time. Another difference I noticed was that in the special pages link the different opions are now categorised rather than being in alphabetical order. Chris Day 20:15, 13 October 2008 (UTC)

Could I get your thoughts on Incident Command System

Especially the Related Articles. My feeling, increasingly, is that Disaster Management, not that we have a category for it, is more Engineering than anything else, but with dashes of Health Sciences and Politics, and, for specific kinds of disasters, Physics and such.

What I'd hope to get from you, even if it were just as stub R-templates, would be some categories for toxic accidents. Plume analysis is probably too detailed here. Howard C. Berkowitz 05:56, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Howard, I added 5 links to your Related Links subpage. Three were to non-existing article as yet and one was to an existing article. If you think that Engineering, Politics and Health Science are involved, then you should add links to them in the "Parent topics" section of that subpage. Hope this helps, Milton Beychok 07:14, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Thanks; you gave me some of what I needed. One of the problems in the field is that so many catastrophic events that could be terrorism are described only in those terms. For chemical accidents, there's a good deal about spill confinement, but much less on pure industrial toxic releases.

Duplicate posts aren't a bad thing in this contact. For large disasters, it's a fine idea to have a backup command post. Howard C. Berkowitz 20:35, 17 October 2008 (UTC)

Piquet

So basically you're saying the article proper may be complete enough, it's just subpages needed? Peter Jackson 17:45, 23 October 2008 (UTC)

Peter, as I said, I don't know enough about the game to comment upon whether or not the main article content needs work. But the subpages should definitely be created as I noted. Regards, Milton Beychok 17:50, 23 October 2008 (UTC)
