question

Hi Robert! I have a question. At wikipedia, I have grown used to the popups script. (by User:Lupin). Is it ported to Citizendium?--Anupam Srivastava 17:18, 9 May 2007 (CDT)

Anupam, actually no, but I am not certain about using them in the future. We are talking about them but no verdict yet. HTH, Robert Tito |  Talk 
Ah... thanks for the information. For what its worth, popups is one of the best tools out there :D, especially for those who want to browse, not edit.

carbon in life

Hi, during a cleanup operation I came upon your old draft Robert_Tito/carbon_in_life. You know better its purpose and the right title/place :) --Aleksander Stos 06:48, 15 May 2007 (CDT)

Decision Support

As you may have some interest in it, please have a look at Clinical decision support system and, if possible, lend a helping hand in editing that. Supten 22:33, 17 May 2007 (CDT)

Unprotecting Talk:Logical positivism

Would it be safe to unprotect Talk:Logical positivism yet? It's in a block of articles I signed up for for the Big Cleanup and it needs a checklist. Petréa Mitchell 13:00, 20 May 2007 (CDT) Petréa, it is unprotected. Robert Tito |  Talk 

Talk:Periodic Table

Mr Tito-

I created a template for a periodic table element on the talk page of Talk:Periodic_Table_of_the_Elements. Let me know what you think.--Robert W King 15:16, 23 May 2007 (CDT)

ID

I agree that ID means lotsa other things. But so far as I can tell, there is a lot of energy being devoted here in CZ to Intelligent Design, and they are calling it ID throughout. In Wikipedia they have something called disambiguity, if I recall, that lists various things such as "Big Three" or common names such as "Jack Crawford", in an article, with descriptions and links to the relevant one. I'm sure that the same will happen here in CZ if it hangs around long enough.... Cheers! Hayford Peirce 23:38, 24 May 2007 (CDT)

I just made a ID (disambiguation) article before I saw that you had changed the ID article around. I think that you ought to incorporate your edits into the disambiguaiton article as this wouldn't lead a search to a dead end, the way it does with your edit. If you aren't sure about how to do this, I will ask an editor or someone for help in straightening this out.Hayford Peirce 11:10, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

Haber process

Hi Robert. Earlier today, I created the Haber process article. I've added a respectable amount of information, but I think that it could greatly be improved with the help of an expert such as yourself. I've added almost everything I can think of, but I'm only currently studying Chemistry for my GCSE, so my knowledge isn't close to what it could be. Thanks for any help you could offer, Oliver Smith 16:01, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

Hi Oliver, I saw some of it this afternoon - and generally it is of a good quality. I have not looked into details - as some where not completely correct as it appeared but that was just a birds eye view. I will see what I can do to help you complete it to a full article Robert Tito |  Talk  16:40, 25 May 2007 (CDT)

Your galleries

Rob, when you get a few minutes sometime, how about going through your picture gallery and adding licensing, a description, and the source to the images? ---Stephen Ewen 13:55, 28 May 2007 (CDT)

these are all private pictures ©RP Tito

Cool. Do me a favor and just tag 'em all with the following when you get a few minutes.

Rob, do me a favor and place some licensing data there. Thanks, ---Stephen Ewen 03:10, 30 May 2007 (CDT)

Steve, that is not needed, is it PLoS and per definition PD, these two are synonyms. Robert Tito |  Talk 
It still needs the source documented so someone can check it and others can re-use it; and PLoS is CC-by so it requires attribution: See http://www.plos.org/ and scroll down to the bottom. See Image:Young_zebra_finch.jpg for a properly documented image upload page from PLoS. Stephen Ewen 22:33, 30 May 2007 (CDT)

Quantum property reference in article:Light

Mr Tito- Can you provide a reference to those experiments which demonstrated the duality in the properties of light? --Robert W King 10:36, 7 June 2007 (CDT)

It's either Rob or Dr. Tito :) Yes, I do have to check my grey memory cells or my references. As far as I know it was published both in Phys. Rev. A and Nature - but I will let you know. I will have to check about your move - because that was not from WP but from MY knowledge - not cut&paste.

I don't mean that it was _from_ WP, but in an effort to conform more to CZ style, articles need to be more or less a narrative than a collection of categorical segments about a subject (I've been told).--Robert W King 10:52, 7 June 2007 (CDT)
that will be the next stage - you started with the very classical model whereas nowadays only the modern view remains - admittedly given examples from the classical billiard balls view. Robert Tito |  Talk
