Hi David,
David, will you please review Milton's responses to your comments on th Talk page regarding [[Boiling point/Draft]], and note on the Talk page whether you consider them satisfactory, and if not, why not.


I have provisionally [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=CZ:Managing_Editor/2010/003_-_Appeal_of_block_1549&curid=100171050&diff=100748464&oldid=100739187 lifted your block] until the Management Committee handles your appeal. --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 23:07, 15 January 2011 (UTC) (as [[CZ:Managing Editor|Managing Editor]])
Also, would you give your assessment of the article as to its meriting re-approval.


:I would have to see that the ME has the authority to do this before I can actually unblock this account. The charter seems to state that the appeal has to go through the MC. [[User:D. Matt Innis|D. Matt Innis]] 00:13, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
Thank you. —[[User:Anthony.Sebastian|Anthony.Sebastian]] 03:08, 29 February 2012 (UTC), Approval Manager.
 
:I see the approval process overtook my timeframe for answering these questions. Well done Anthony, in just a few weeks you managed our first article approval in a very long time! Ok, only a re-approval, but it's a good start. For the record I think the small addition to the introduction of the draft article made a big difference to the amount of people who would try to use that article. My concerns were the same as yours - of course we shouldn't eliminate the scientific information, that would be ridiculous, but we should certainly try where possible to introduce all readers to a topic in a way they can understand, with increasing complexity as the reader progresses. That is, of course, why we have subpages and the like. Keep up the good work! [[User:David Finn|David Finn]] 07:35, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
