User talk:Sekhar Talluri

Welcome!

Welcome to the Citizendium! We hope you will contribute boldly and well. You'll probably want to know how to get started as an author. Just look at CZ:Getting Started for other helpful "startup" links, and CZ:Home for the top menu of community pages. Be sure to stay abreast of events via the Citizendium-L (broadcast) mailing list (do join!) and the blog. Please also join the workgroup mailing list(s) that concern your particular interests. You can test out editing in the sandbox if you'd like. If you need help to get going, the forums is one option. That's also where we discuss policy and proposals. You can ask any constable for help, too. Me, for instance! Just put a note on their "talk" page. Again, welcome and have fun! Stephen Ewen 13:17, 11 January 2008 (CST)

welcome #2

It is nice to have another chemistry author join, especially another NMR guy!. You might want to check out the Core Article initiative for the list of core articles suggested for chemistry so far at:

http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/CZ:Core_Articles/Natural_Sciences

or double check my list of nmr experiments page here:

If you have any questions, don't be shy about asking. David E. Volk 08:10, 12 January 2008 (CST)

suggested links for the NMR article

You might add these links to your article A complete list of atoms that can be used for NMR experiments can be found at NMR_active_elements. A list with explanation of many NMR experiments can be found here List of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance experiments

Also incorporate protein structure into the text?

Welcome #3

Dear dr. Talluri: Welcome to CZ!

I like to tell you the following: when you edit you see a line with icons on top of the edit screen starting with B (bolding text). The tenth icon from the left gives a signature, when you click this you get: --~~~~. This is translated into your name and date. It is good practice to end messages on discussion pages by this (although sometimes people, including myself, forget this).--Paul Wormer 02:34, 13 January 2008 (CST)

approval mistake

I can't see why it thinks I approved it. I still need to read it. I am hoping someone will fix this. I will read it thouroughly in the next few days and make suggestions before sending for approval. David E. Volk 16:41, 16 January 2008 (CST)

I got this problem fixed.

Please join us for Biology Week!

Hello Sekhar, I am giving you this personal invitation to join us this week for Biology Week! You're a Citizendium Biology Author and we need authors as much as editors here to get involved. Did you know that there are over 200 biology authors here? Yep! Please join us on the wiki and add or revise biology articles. Also, please let your friends and colleagues who are biologists, biology students, or naturalists, know about Biology Week and ask them to join us, too. Any way you can help make it an event would be most welcome. Think of it as a Biology Workgroup open house. Let's see if we can kick up activity a notch! Thanks in advance! --Larry Sanger 14:51, 22 September 2008 (CDT)

The first Biology Week took place here from Sep 22-28, 2008.

LaTeX problem

I see that you have a LaTeX problem. I have the same problem. I wrote a posting on the forum and I mailed to Larry Sanger. --Paul Wormer 13:36, 11 October 2008 (UTC)

Angular momentum (quantum)

Sekhar, why did you delete a very large part of Angular momentum (quantum)? You know that deletion of somebody else's work is very unusual here at CZ. It only happens after consultation of the original author. --Paul Wormer 16:22, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Or, at least, after an adequately lengthy explanation on the talk page. --Larry Sanger 16:55, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Make that a very lengthy and thorough explanation. Note that the figure is gone, all references are gone, historical intro is gone. If it is not a simple mistake we have a problem. --Paul Wormer 17:03, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I had NO intention of making ANY changes to your article on Angular momentum - only reason I went into edit mode for Angular momentum is to see how to format the brackets for a unrelated equation in the NMR spectroscopy article which I am editing. If ANY changes have been made by me they must be entirely accidental - from my (very little experience) on citizendium it appears that any older version of an article can be restored. Please discard EVERY change that I made to the Anglular momentum article. Very very sorry. I thought that every time I went into edit mode on the angular momentum article, I quit using 'cancel' which I assumed would restore the original article without any changes. Again, very sorry if there is any change. But I am sure the article can be restored to the previous state - just discard all changes, if any, made by me. Sekhar Talluri 17:33, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Just noticed that the Angular momentum article is restored. Hope all is OK. Again, sorry for the trouble. Sekhar Talluri 17:51, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

Apologies accepted. I'm very glad that it was just a mistake. (I have some Wikipedia experience and there a change like that would be malicious. I'm relieved that it is not the case here.) I will be happy to read your NMR article and approve it.--Paul Wormer 18:08, 16 January 2009 (UTC) ---

Well, I would not rule that out in this case as I do not remember deleting anything. However, it is likely to be due to some stupid action on my part as I have not read the manual.Sekhar Talluri 20:42, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

For my part let me just say I'm glad you are still here after a year! Welcome back! --Larry Sanger 19:02, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

I work on this only during holidays. I am planning to submit this article and then add stubs later for additional details.Sekhar Talluri 20:46, 16 January 2009 (UTC)
