Editor status confusion

Tito,

On my user welcome page, http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User_talk:Michael_Mills, you indicated that I was accepted as an editor:

"Welcome to the Citizendium! We're very glad you've joined us as an editor. Most of your functions you share with authors, so you'll probably want to read how to get started as an author."

However, another user, Matt Innis" removed my editor status. See:

  http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User_talk:Michael_Mills

At this point, I'm pretty confused. Thanks for helping to clarify this.

-- Mike Mills

LOL Chris, I talked about the archive box. The link to my name is not correct it seems. Robert Tito (Talk)

I know the problem with the archive box. i designed it for the article space and forgot it might be used on user talk pages. Consequently, it links to the CZ article about you rather than your user page. Apparently you, and Larry, are not notable enough for your own articles ;) I can fix it though and then it will point to your user page. Chris Day (Talk) 10:56, 20 March 2007 (CDT)

OK, archive box is fixed, I think that is how you wanted it. You signature still needs to be tweeked too. At present the red talk link does not link to anywhere. The bolded code above will fix the problem. Chris Day (Talk) 13:11, 20 March 2007 (CDT)

Forget that last comment, i just noticed your lastest signature does not have the bold red talk link and has reverted back to a functioning minimalist look. Chris Day (Talk) 13:14, 20 March 2007 (CDT)

Question

Hello. You welcomed me to citizendium earlier [1] and I would like to thank you. Also, I have a question regarding society and religion. I was wondering if citizendium has any experts on hand who specialize in society, history and religion in South Asia.If not, then I can utilize my contacts to solicit help from peer-reviewed scholars in US universities who specialize in such topics to build good articles here.Analabha Roy 01:34, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Big O

Robert will you join us here as a computer science editor. I will handle the constable issues on whatever you guys decide. --Matt Innis (Talk) 08:15, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Hi, thanks for your input. Responded on Matt's page -- as the discussion there is the most complete and there is another math editor invited to put comments there (so let's centralize the discussion). --AlekStos 12:30, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Well the only thing I wonder about is the following, but it is minor: We use O(something) and call O order of , usually trailing fast to 0. In general it can be called trailing part fastly approaching 0) hence O can also be interpreted as order of nearly zero. Anything to make it more transparant is welcome.

hey

did this slow you down;) --Matt Innis (Talk) 15:39, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Thanks for fixing up my late-night errors. Off to bed with me  :-) -- ZachPruckowski (Speak to me) 23:30, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Great infinity cartoon. Reminds me of my own days in math, when my instructor who had an accent such that he pronounced "naught" as "not", would ask repeatedly: when Y approaches Yo, then - what is the limit? Nancy Sculerati 20:15, 28 March 2007 (CDT) Try explaining Fourier transforms when infinity isn't clear. let alone changing coordinate-system :) Robert Tito |  Talk 

Question

Robert: Yesterday, I got started. I moved over my Wikipedia article on Combustion Analysis. I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved. Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- Gordan Feric Robert: Yesterday, I got started. I moved over my Wikipedia article on Combustion Analysis. I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved. Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- Gordan Feric

Gordan, you cannot tag the article as to approve, that has to be done by 1 editor, not affiliated/contributing to the article. I will remove the ToApprove template, and advice you to check out the approval process, see the help pages. Robert Tito |  Talk  11:06, 29 March 2007 (CDT)

Robert: Thanks for the answer and corresponding feedback. As you can see, I am new with Wikipedia and Citizendium and their way of getting things accomplished. I am learning, but I still need some help while learing the basic principles of how the Citizendium article approval process works. Hopefully, my first article on Combustion Analysis will help me find out for the new and future articles. Basically, once I am done with an article, I just add a Category Tag at the bottom of the article page -- Engineering Workgroup -- and the rest is up to the Editors and I just need to follow the discussion page on what my responsibilities are. Thanks, Gordan Gordan Feric

Robert: I have another question. Now, I do know how to create new pages. How about deleting the pages that I do not need any more? Can I delete such pages or who does that part? Thanks, Gordan Gordan Feric To delete a page you submit a request at constables(@citizendium.org requesting the deletion, OR you can add the {{speedydelete}} template. The latter makes it simple: add that tag and it will be taken care of by one of the constables. cheers, Robert Tito |  Talk  13:28, 29 March 2007 (CDT)

Wikimedia Commons

Dear Mr. Tito, Thanks for the confirmation. I would like to ask you if you think it is possible to use Wikimedia Commons pictures on Citzendium, or do we have to reupload them here as well?Soso Mamukelashvili 10:23, 30 March 2007 (CDT)

Divisor article

Is this article "in the pipeline" yet? I don't see it yet in any list, including list of unapproved articles. Thanks,Rich 23:45, 30 March 2007 (CDT) Rich, I added the labels Live and the Mathematics workgroup. You should ask one of the editors in Math to back you up and put the article up for approval. See our approval process for the details. Robert Tito |  Talk  01:45, 31 March 2007 (CDT)

Image

Hello Robert, how are you? I've been trying since this morning to upload a picture of Noam Chomsky (with a Creative Commons licence), however the system kept giving me some strange messages. Finally some minutes ago I was able to upload the picture, but when I look at the page it´s seems all my attempts got recorded. Would it be possible for you to delete the image (here [2]), so that I could upload again and all those attempts wouldn't be recorded?

template for workgroup education

Do you think it will be useful for people who are actively writing but have not joined a workgroup or are not adding workgroup categories to articles? We could place this on certain people's usert talk pages. Feel free to edit it and please make a comment on the talk page if you are able. http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/Template:Workgroup_introduction -Tom Kelly (Talk) 21:56, 31 March 2007 (CDT)
