Workgroups

Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.

Biology articles started during Biology Week

Daniel, what does this mean:

Please use the format {{rpl|Your Article's name}}.

Will you give an example. --Anthony.Sebastian 22:26, 17 September 2008 (CDT)

Sorry...

It's not Monday anywhere yet, is it? --Larry Sanger 09:15, 21 September 2008 (CDT)

Thanks for checking but according to The World Time Clock, it was Monday on the Christmas Islands (24h ahead of Hawaii) before I put up the notice. Daniel Mietchen 16:51, 21 September 2008 (CDT)

Re your welcome message to newcomer Sjoerd Hoogwater

Hi, Daniel, I don't think we've met before. I noticed in your welcome message on the Talk page of newcomer Sjoerd Hoogwater, at User talk:Sjoerd Hoogwater, that your list of articles indicated that we need articles entitled Refinery and Gas processing. I just want to point out that we already have two very detailed articles entitled Natural gas processing and Petroleum refining processes which cover the subjects of refinery and gas processing quite well. In fact the Petroleum refining processes article is an Approved article.

If you want to see all of the articles currently in the Chemical Engineering field, please visit Category:Chemical Engineering Subgroup which now has 98 articles in it.

Best regards, Milton Beychok 01:29, 24 September 2008 (CDT)

Brain and Music

That's a very impressive brain & music program you've put together. I'll be most interested in the final results. It could be a real contribution to public discourse on the subject. Best of luck. William L. Benzon 14:12, 26 September 2008 (CDT)

Bio Week stats

Sorry for the delay, recently I'm not a frequent visitor here. Stats for the Bio Week may be a good idea. For technical reasons a dump takes a couple of days and it's not possible to do it at a given moment. Not really we need this, since any edit or action is timestamped anyway. It is enough to filter the dump that is usually taken at the beginning of the month. What kind of information would be most interesting in this case? Maybe human-related stats (number of editors, number of edits etc;). Any other ideas? Best, Aleksander Stos 10:00, 27 September 2008 (CDT)

Thanks for combat loading adjustments

I hadn't realized how much obsolete material was still in that article; I've updated it somewhat but it needs much more work. There is relevant material, among other places, at amphibious warfare and prepositioning ship.

One of these days, we really need to link articles where this was an issue. Falklands War is a stub, and there were very unusual cross-loading considerations due to the extreme distance and ad hoc organization, but the loss (especially) of the Atlantic Conveyor, with all but one of the medium/heavy helicopters, is useful as an example. The Bay of Pigs is a stunningly bad example (at the Falklands, they took a calculated risk).

Guadalcanal actually did have some combat loading, but RADM Fletcher didn't give sufficient unloading time. Gallipoli, an interest of mine, also deserves an article as one of the all-time examples of bad senior command, admittedly no amphibious doctrine, and missed opportunities (e.g., Anzac Cove).
