I just archived the last batch of postings
That is why this page looks rather empty at this moment. Milton Beychok Milton Beychok 18:35, 25 March 2009 (UTC)
an article of interest (maybe)
Would this article be useful to you for any of the subjects you've been working on around here? It is licensed under a Creative Commons attribution license, which means that its contents may be reused as long as credit is given. I assume that goes for the photos and diagrams too, which might be of some use. --Joe Quick 14:18, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
- Joe, that article would indeed be a good one for CZ and would work for inclusion in the Engineering and/or the Biology Workroups as well as the Chemical Engineering subgroup. However, it is a part of Chemical Engineering and/or Biochemical Engineering (see Chemical engineering) in which I have no no expertise or experience. I would be reluctant to just copy an article in a field I know practically nothing about.
- Perhaps someone in the Biology Workgroup (like Chris Day, who is a Biology Editor) would be qualified to work on that article? Milton Beychok 15:29, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
Cryptography
Thank you for becoming an approving editor on brute force attack. There's been discussion and some change to the article since it was proposed. Please have a look, see if you can still support.
There's a long list of crypto articles that I think are near approval. One thing I'd really like is for someone who isn't in the field to look through Block_cipher#Principles_and_techniques and see if it makes sense. I think it should, but I don't really know. Would you have time for that? Sandy Harris 08:53, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
- Yes, I stiil support the nomination. See my comment on the article's talk page. Milton Beychok 14:52, 30 March 2009 (UTC)
Thanks
Hi Milt. Thanks for the response you posted on Larry's talk page. Hendra I. Nurdin 05:51, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
Chemical Corps
Sure. I think I created it at a time when someone was on a lower case rampage and I was tired of the changing. As the Brits say, capital idea.
Interesting thought: is that, as well as the chemical weapon/warfare material, appropriate to come under chemical engineering? Howard C. Berkowitz 22:05, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
- I have renamed it to Chemical Corps. As for it coming under the Chemical Engineering Subgroup, I think that is borderline okay for this one article. Maybe also borderline okay for the Chemistry Workgroup. In general, I think it and all related articles should be kept under the Military Workgroup. Milton Beychok 01:56, 6 April 2009 (UTC)
Timing
Milton your clock is two hours behind. It seems that the CZ timing went completely crazy, I tried to edit the talk page of vapor pressure and it seems to have done somewhere in the past with the net effect that my edits are lost.--Paul Wormer 17:51, 7 April 2009 (UTC)
Approval
Hi Milton, I approved all three now. I considered the process smooth sailing, I hope you did too. --Paul Wormer 23:11, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- It was smooth sailing indeed! Thanks very much. Milton Beychok 23:35, 9 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hi Milt, I made a few changes to Specific heat ratio. Please take a look. --Daniel Mietchen 10:24, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Vapor pressure approved, April 14th -- Congratulations
Hi, Milton, the Vapor pressure article has been approved and protected! Congrats! Hayford Peirce 04:34, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Relative volatility approved, April 15th, Congratulations!
Hi, Milt, your article has been Approved -- you can see it at Relative volatility. Hayford Peirce 16:29, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
adding a null space
Hmmm, I see that I guess I have to add the null space to the Draft version of the article in question rather than to the Waiting for Approvals page, which is where I tried doing it. Hayford Peirce 16:45, 15 April 2009 (UTC)
Congratulations again!
I've just Approved the Specific heat ratio article. But this time I'm not gonna waste any of my time trying to "jog" the flippin' Metadata -- let someone else do it, hehe! Hayford Peirce 18:26, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
Thank you for unveiling the engineer's mind.
Smart nerds, those engineers, thank you for sharing this with me. --Paul Wormer 23:25, 16 April 2009 (UTC)
Gasoline nominated for approval
Milton, I nominated Gasoline for approval. Thanks for the rewording of the stability section. David E. Volk 17:35, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
pillars
Milt, did you notice I upgraded the hand drawing. If it is still the old one empty your cache and then look at it. Chris Day 16:45, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
- If it is useful and you want some modifcations i can make changes for you. Chris Day 16:46, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
- Chris, I replaced the hand-drawn sketches with a much better diagram from the Kentucky Geological Survey (KGS). At the time that I did that, the old hand-drawn sketchs were still in the article. I did not realize that you had updated the sketches until you just notified me. In fact, the History page of the article still shows the old sketchs.
- In any event, I think that the KGS diagram is probably all we need for that article. Thanks, Milton Beychok 17:34, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
- No problem, i like the one you added. Note, I only upgraded the pillar one. i did not do the drift vs open vs shaft mining figure. Chris Day 17:36, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
