I aim to restrict my replies to this talk page....

My hope is to preserve the context of each discussion rather than having them fragmented on mutliple talk pages. So please check back here for replies to messages you leave, thanks. Please sign comments with four tildes ~~~~ This makes it a lot easier to follow the ebb and flow of a discussion with multiple users. Indents are also useful to help track the sequence of replies and can be achieved using colons such as : or ::. Chris Day (Talk) 23:32, 13 November 2006 (CST)

For the benefit of newcomers, I mention that this can easily done by putting the page on one's watchlist, or setting the preferences to do so automatically.DavidGoodman

Natural sciences

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 article	All articles (1,640)	To Approve (0)	Editors: active (1) / inactive (46) and Authors: active (441) / inactive (0)	Workgroup Discussion
	Recent changes	Citable Articles (25)
		Subgroups (12.5)

Naming policy white paper

Hi Chris, Earlier, when I was having technical problems editing CZ pages, I left you a private message on the forum. Just wondering if you had seen it. --Jaap Winius 15:33, 2 April 2007 (CDT)

Got this Jaap, will reply soon. Chris Day (Talk) 13:57, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Macromolecular Chemistry

Chris, this article really needed a Chemistry editor that was not involved in writing for approval. At this point, we have a second Chemistry editor-who is also involved in writing. So approval is going to take a third. Let's all work together, maybe we can recruit more Chemistry editors for the workgroup. Nancy Sculerati 11:04, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Chemisty

Chris, after I approved, we later determined that both macromolecular chemistry and physical chemistry (and there is one more) needed two more chemistry editors to be approved (Nancy and Gareth didn't count), so we had to back track until others come along. Steve actually did the reversion. I'll see what happened to the talk pages and see what I can do to restore them. --Matt Innis (Talk) 13:44, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

OK, that makes sense, in that case we need to restore the talk page histories and delete the draft articles. It certainly confused me and I'm sure I'm not the only one. Chris Day (Talk) 13:51, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Also, Nancy's message above now makes more sense. Chris Day (Talk) 13:52, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

See me on Steve's page --Matt Innis (Talk) 14:12, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Looks good, huh:)

I like it to :) Thanks to you! --Matt Innis (Talk) 14:29, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

Lonely, I need HELP !!! Economics is a vast topic, it is "too much sand for my little truck..." J. R. Campos 08:30, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

That's exactly what I was thinking! Unfortunately, however, I am next to useless on the topic. Hopefully more people will migrate from wikipedia once they see there is a chance to do some real work here. Assuming there are good people in wikipedia? Certainly for the sciences there are some very good contributors. Chris Day (Talk) 09:11, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

Hey Chris

Anyway to make an Article for Deletion tag can show up on the Workgroup Box for the workgroup responsible for that article. Maybe along with the checklisted articles (or something better). That way, when someone places it in the category articles for deletion, the editors can take a look and see if it should be deleted. What do you think? --Matt Innis (Talk) 22:39, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Hey Matt, which of these template categories Category:Speedy_Deletion_Requests or Category:Articles_for_deletion are you thinking of? Not sure if it is possible but will think about it. Chris Day (Talk) 23:17, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

Category:Articles_for deletion. You can doit, I no u can:) --Matt Innis (Talk) 15:36, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Thanks

Thanks for letting me know. I'll keep my opinion of it to myself... --Peter J. King  Talk  11:57, 7 April 2007 (CDT)

Thanks Peter! --Mike Johnson 14:01, 7 April 2007 (CDT)
