NFL Playoffs
Nice work on NFL Playoffs. Just a little more work, IMHO, and you've got a good article. My suggestions for the final push are on the talk page. Kghusker 16:30, 30 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm Back
I have another article for you to look over, Ben Stiller. I have all the sources, citations, and fair use rationales. I think it could probably use some better headings, so let me know what you think. Also let me know if there is anything else standing in the way of it reaching GA. Thanks again.-- Nehrams2020 06:03, 7 January 2007 (UTC)
- I put it up for GA, if it does/doesn't pass, can you still look it over if you get the chance so I can further improve it if necessary? Thanks. -- Nehrams2020 09:09, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

WRT to stadiums hosting the Super Bowl without hosting a pro team, Stanford Stadium was actually the home for the 49ers for one game in 1989, following the earthquake.

Sometimes it is a puzzle to find the last 'good' version of an article. The article GunBound had to reverted farther back to get rid of all the recent vandalism.

User Talk
Mind telling me why I will be blocked? I still haven't seen any rule that states blanking my own page is a crime, it seems rather that arbitrary decisions are made by those in power who abuse their authority. It's my page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.137.175.59 ( talk • contribs)
The article that you linked to deals with ownership of articles not userpages. The userpages are very different wiki articles, the user pages and discussions are used to identify a particular user, so in the case of Usertalk:209.137.175.59 page this is not a wikpedia article hence does not fall under the "rules of ownership" page.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Socko123 ( talk • contribs)

Your note on IP page
With reference to this edit, I think the {{ repeat vandal}} banner covers the issue. Regards -- Golden Wattle talk 00:38, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- While we have a tendency to post warnings at the bottom of the page, I think the warnings are hard to find for the intended reader if the page gets too lengthy, this is depsite the use of headings - more than a screen's length and expecting someone to navigate down to the bottom of the page is not reader friendly. Some IP addresses are used by many individuals. By their nature they are not experienced wikipedians. We need to make the warnings clear for the person to whom they are addressed. "Other users and admins" are secondary readers only. If they are in the warnings sphere and are interested in the extent of damage a vandal has been doing, I would expect them to be familiar with the banner and /or use of the history tab plus of course looking at the IPs contributions. My two cents Regards--
Golden Wattle
talk 00:51, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Your experience of vandalism may vary from mine. You said: Again, if the IP is used by many people, then it is unlikely that the same vandal will use the same IP over and over. Messages left will not reach more than a page long; if they are more than a page long, it is evidence of a single-user IP, and should be treated accordingly.
- School children and perhaps other students, for example at college, would seem to not fit your model. I have met plenty of pages with messages more than a page long and would not assume a single user, but there may indeed be among the users returning vandals. For example a page I have done a fair bit of reversion on is Ned Kelly ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views); it was the one the IP address whose talk page you annoated as referenced above had vandalised: 203.144.20.142 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) - as I read the Whois info for that the IP address is associated with Bond University. For an example of a talk page of another recently reverted Ned Kelly editor there see 203.208.66.79 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). I would make no assumption that it is one user - IP addresses by Telstra are not usually assigned that way over time as I understand it. For an example of one of the many IP addresses of schools that has vandalised Ned Kelly see 203.208.91.217 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) Regards -- Golden Wattle talk 20:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

Jayron, thanks so much for your kind words in passing the article as a GA.

Thank you for reviewing Heterodontosauridae! They say that good articles don't just pop up out of nowhere anymore, but I found that one after a WP:DINO review of article size.

Rainham, London
I know you said that the only thing stopping Rainham from becoming a good article was the fact that the history section is totally unreferenced, however I used the only source available to me, the book ‘Bygone Dagenham and Rainham’ which is actually listed in the references section. How do I reference one source for an entire section? It’s not like there are loads of sources out there with info one Rainham. Could you give me some advice? Max Naylor 18:16, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

I see your point, if they get reported one more time, I 'm sure someone will block them for an extended period of time (I will if I handle it). It's important to try and use warnings everytime because vandals often stop after seeing a final. John Reaves (talk) 05:37, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

Assessing article on Leonard Orban
You have assessed the article on Leonard Orban as not meeting the GA criteria because it has "Non-free images without fair-use rationale". If this is the only problem of the article, I believe I can fix it in a couple of days and provide a fair use rationale. Is it possible to change your assessment and put ii "on hold" for a few days? The whole process of GA nomination takes a lot of time and a lot of waiting and maybe it can be made shorter, if the fair-use rationale is the only problem in the article. BTW, is there any other similar cases of fair-use images for a politician I could consult? Many thanks in advance, -- Michkalas 15:48, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Can you assess this article for GA? You assessed Romanization of Chinese, and this article is similar (although in my opinion it is of much higher quality).

Taiwanese aborigines
Hi, thanks for the GA review. I have listed Taiwanese aborigines at WP:GA/R for review of the Failed Ga. Thanks again! -- Ling.Nut 23:46, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Hi---
- Errm? Eh? Ug! I could swear I saw that GA review on my watch list just this evening! But it is from days ago. I dunno how I confused myself...
- Yes I am editing at the moment, but am quitting again in ten minutes or so. I was editing again for Spring Break, which ended today. :-)
- Thanks! -- Ling.Nut 01:18, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
- Hi again; last message, I promise. :-) It's completely up to you: You can review Taiwanese aborigines if you like, or don't review it if you don't. :-) I actually left a note on Homestarmy's talk a while back asking him to review it. He hasn't replied yet. That may perhaps be because at the time I wrote the note, the article wasn't even WP:GAC. Or it may be because he's too busy, I dunno. I'm sure he wouldn't mind if you reviewed it... it would save him the trouble. :-) All in all, I have been more than a little confused about what was done where :-) But I am done now. Need to study. Please feel free to review the article if it pleases you to do so, but don't feel obligated. Thanks! -- Ling.Nut 01:47, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the review. I've just fixed some links to citations, and moved the controversial stance section next to position section.

New article on Steve Omohundro
I found some new information on Steve Omohundro that was not brough up in the original AFD discussion - 17 publications and a US patent - and thought this significant enough to warrant restoring the article. After restoring it, I made enough edits that I feel it's a new article rather than a restoration (it would have been easier to start from scratch than to restore), so I have removed the CFD tag. However, I wanted to invite you to take a look at the article as you participated in the original AFD discussion. -- Zippy 00:11, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

Biased biography
Why is the criticism of the Finkelstein bio much larger and more detailed than the praises?
I have read his books and they are all well documented with loads of footnotes to back up his conclusions. Of course there are going to be more criticisms than praise because he is taking a position that isn't politically correct. But that doesn't mean its not justified. Please make both the praise and criticism sections equal in length. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.239.138.147 ( talk) 04:59, 26 March 2007 (UTC).

George Albu
Dear Jayron32, Thank you for your comments on Albu. However, I must express surprise that you feel removing 2 images from the page (repeatedly) and rearranging the rest, does not constitute vandalism. If Berks had discussed the issue before his summary edits, which are simply labelled "not necessary", there might be some justification for his actions. See Lady Phillips and Lionel Phillips for similar behaviour. Unfortunately Berks has decided to target me and will carry on with his harassment until he is stopped or grows bored. Paul venter 05:22, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Hermann Eckstein
This is getting too much - Berks ignored a tag on the above article which I started this morning, leading to an edit conflict which caused a loss of about an hour's work. Get him off my back or you will lose my contributions permanently. Paul venter 13:00, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well I apologise for that. Firstly, your work shouldnt have been lost, it should have been in a section on the bottom half of the page, which you then could have restored to the top part of the page and saved. Secondly, it is because you have over used these templates that I assumed you weren't editing it. -- Berks105 13:05, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Top Gear good article status
Yes Jay, I have to agree with your comments on this, the referencing thing is a major problem on these Top Gear related pages, I had to go through and add the unreferenced bar to at least half a dozen pages today within this section, although strangely not Top Gear Dog, which although fully referenced was vandalised by our friend User:DrFrench. The referencing added today to the Jon_Bentley_(TV_presenter) page is pathetic and is just a blatant excuse to avoid it being AfD'd. At that rate, there's no wonder this article failed the good article criteria especially when some of the best parts of the Top Gear section are unnecessarily vandalised, aka deleted by biased admin.

Hi Jayron, thanks for adding a warning at [User talk:72.223.1.37]]. A couple of small comments, if I may. Most importantly, you should sign warnings when you leave them. The second is that if a user has already received a {{ uw-vandalism4}} warning, it doesn't generally help to immediately add a second such warning to the user's talk page.

Re:
I perfectly know how to use GA/R and have been using it for several months which is much longer than most. Please do not come on my page and tell me how to use it like you're quoting a sermon - some of the cases I put there aren't clear cut, and even the ones that are can be disputed by anyone who wishes to do so. Only very very recently was one lone person allowed to delist an article again, until that was re-reverted, and some still dispute there should be a better process to list and fail GAs.
Furthermore, I do not need to leave "extensive notes" for others to be able to work an article back up to GA, since most are forgotten and unloved, and secondly it's up to an editor to bring an article they wish to GA and not myself, and furthermore if I did that with every GA that needs delisting I would be here until Doomsday. Good day, and please remember this if anything - quoting Wikipedia text to other editors sometimes comes across as offensive and smarmy, so please reconsider when attempting to use it again. LuciferMorgan 19:33, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. I overreacted anyway, so it's me who needs to apologise. Accept my humble apologies. I hope you see why I nominate even obvious fails for GA/R though, as some editors tend to contest their failure with you even if it's clear. When three or four people quickly say fail it tends to lend more weight to a failure. LuciferMorgan 23:18, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm bit of a picky person so I don't tend to review articles at GAC. Usually though, reviewers tend to end up specialising in areas which helps I find - mines Music personally. I can review a Music article much better than I can other articles. When reviewing a GAC, be very specific in what you think should be improved, but most of all make a flatline call - is this article way from GA, or can this be improved to GA if I place it on hold for one week? WP:PR is a good place if you wish to brush up your reviewing skills, and there's many eager for their articles to be reviewed. LuciferMorgan 00:45, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- I can see why you'd get irked, but some cases are such a pain - no citations, prose problems, missing info, the works, and in those cases it's best to just tell them to look at a recently listed GA in the same category. When delisting GAs etc., it doesn't bother me about leaving extreme in depth reasons, as any interested editor can request such if they need it. If you think I accused you of not taking GA reviews seriously then my apologies - in your last message (which started "PS." it seemed you asked for my advice about reviewing GAs, so I just gave it. We didn't start out in conflict as such - I just find it very annoying when someone quotes from Wikipedia pages half the time. Anyway, that's all under the bridge now.

Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles example reviews
- I think putting up an actual example of a bad review is probably a bad idea. :-( people could take that personally. Outlining typical pitfalls of reviews should be enough.
- As for good reviews, ask User:Homestarmy who he thinks were the best two or three reviewers. I always liked to read User:RelHistBuff's reviews. I put a lot of work into some of my reviews, but they were kinda scattered/unorganized. Not concise examples, probably.

Timeline of chemistry bondstar
Jayron32, thanks for the chemistry bondstar. I wish I could have contributed more during the buildup, but I'm knee-deep in finishing the wrap-up details for the publication of new 500-pg textbook on human chemistry; it's quite interesting how mathematically-thick it turned out to be. See the new webpage I started last week to get a loose idea: www. humanchemistry. net . The webpage is only one page presently, but maybe down the road I'll be able to make it into a multi-level education-type website on the subject. To note, the timeline of chemistry needs a section on 21st century contributions. We might want to check out the Nobel Prize in chemistry during the last decade to get an idea or put something in there about nanotechnology or drug design, which have been big topics recently. Talk soon: -- Sadi Carnot 08:57, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
- As an example, I had added an entry on the invention of Chemical ionization mass spectrometry, which has become one of the most important "soft" ionization techniques, and is used in many diverse areas of analytical chemistry. However, I later removed it, because I realized that the addition was purely personal. One of the inventors, Burnaby Munson, was my advisor and mentor in college; though this does not undervalue his role or the importance of his discovery, its inclusion here was probably a little TOO esoteric for inclusion. Likewise, another close mentor of mine, J.L. Burmeister, has been cited as the "Father of ambidentate ligand chemistry". Fairly big in its field, but not really valid inclusion in an omnibus timeline like this.
- The key is finding discoveries whose importance has been noted so often that it has become pervasive in the literature. Discoveries of the past 10 years MAY someday reach that level of import, but it is hard to decide which recent discoveries will seem important say, another 10 years from now, and which ones will look out of place in a list like this.
- I have added some nanotechnology related discoveries, such as Kroto et al. and fullerenes, and its offshoot discoveries related to carbon nanotubes. Still, if you have specific examples you would like adding, please feel free to add them yourself, or if you are short on time, drop a note at the article's talk page. I can do the research and add more entries for you if you have specific things. Thanks again for all of your help! -- Jayron32| talk| contribs 16:24, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
Jyron, I agree about the 10 year waiting period, sometimes it’s even 30 years. I’ll try to keep my eyes open for possible recent innovators in chemistry. Soon as I get caught up, you’ll probably see me back digging around in the table, trying to tighten it. P.S. what gave you the urge to make the timeline? Talk soon: -- Sadi Carnot 13:02, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- I hope you are watching my talk page. Makes it easier to keep the conversation going. Well, several things: 1) I noticed it was missing and probably needed, since there were smaller timelines dealing with specific chemistry fields, but no omnibus chemistry timeline. 2) I have always been very interested in History of Science type stuff. I majored in chemistry and minored in history in college, and was very close to a double major(B.S. Chemistry/B.A. History), but that would have required staying an extra year, and events conspired to make that unlikely. 3), I was eager to see what it took to get an article featured. I have never had the gumption to nominate any of my articles for feature status, and it wasn't much of my intention of getting this one there, but as it started to develop, I realized that this might be a good shot for my first test case. It worked out pretty good. My second attempt at a feature, one on Plymouth Colony, isn't going as well. It seems featured lists are much easier than featured articles.-- Jayron32| talk| contribs 04:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, good work. I see your perspective better now. I've had similar thoughts about FA status, many times people have suggested this option to me on some articles I've wrote, but from other experiences in Wikipedia, it seems like it's more of mental strain than it's worth to push out FA's. -- Sadi Carnot 19:06, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Being bold and overdoing the AGF thing on Talk:Brian Wilson
Reviewing, you were one of the more concerned people, so I thought I should ask your blessing (or other). If you review the history for Talk:Brian Wilson you see the former miscreant wanting very much to hide. Hopefully, they simply want to let the misdeeds be in the past. I've been thinking about this for awhile, that we should archive (not disappear) the threads so that they can be less embarrassed. I've created an archive for the talk page and moved those last two threads into there. I updated your links to your WP:ANI postings so they can be found in those archives. And, of course, I have the new archive on my watchlist, as is proving to be necessary more and more. (Did you know AN/I archives aren't protected?!!) Any severe objections? I've already mentioned to one person I'll either get an AGF badge, or a multi-pointed something applied rudely if the miscreant reverts to old form. (sigh) Shenme 01:10, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- I see no problem with archiving the talk page. To make it appear as though you are not merely archiving the "evidence", it might be a good idea to archive all posts older than XXXX, where XXXX is the date of the last bad post by the prodigal editor in question. That way, we don't have to keep this stuff in his "face", while also being able to make the whole archiving appear neutral. You have my blessing. -- Jayron32| talk| contribs 03:22, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

The article that you linked to deals with ownership of articles not userpages. The userpages are very different wiki articles, the user pages and discussions are used to identify a particular user, so in the case of Usertalk:209.137.175.59 page this is not a wikpedia article hence does not fall under the "rules of ownership" page.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Socko123 ( talk • contribs)

Your note on IP page
With reference to this edit, I think the {{ repeat vandal}} banner covers the issue. Regards -- Golden Wattle talk 00:38, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- While we have a tendency to post warnings at the bottom of the page, I think the warnings are hard to find for the intended reader if the page gets too lengthy, this is depsite the use of headings - more than a screen's length and expecting someone to navigate down to the bottom of the page is not reader friendly. Some IP addresses are used by many individuals. By their nature they are not experienced wikipedians. We need to make the warnings clear for the person to whom they are addressed. "Other users and admins" are secondary readers only. If they are in the warnings sphere and are interested in the extent of damage a vandal has been doing, I would expect them to be familiar with the banner and /or use of the history tab plus of course looking at the IPs contributions. My two cents Regards--
Golden Wattle
talk 00:51, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- Your experience of vandalism may vary from mine. You said: Again, if the IP is used by many people, then it is unlikely that the same vandal will use the same IP over and over. Messages left will not reach more than a page long; if they are more than a page long, it is evidence of a single-user IP, and should be treated accordingly.
- School children and perhaps other students, for example at college, would seem to not fit your model. I have met plenty of pages with messages more than a page long and would not assume a single user, but there may indeed be among the users returning vandals. For example a page I have done a fair bit of reversion on is Ned Kelly ( | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views); it was the one the IP address whose talk page you annoated as referenced above had vandalised: 203.144.20.142 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) - as I read the Whois info for that the IP address is associated with Bond University. For an example of a talk page of another recently reverted Ned Kelly editor there see 203.208.66.79 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log). I would make no assumption that it is one user - IP addresses by Telstra are not usually assigned that way over time as I understand it. For an example of one of the many IP addresses of schools that has vandalised Ned Kelly see 203.208.91.217 ( talk · contribs · deleted contribs · filter log · WHOIS · RDNS · RBLs · http · block user · block log) Regards -- Golden Wattle talk 20:43, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

You have assessed the article on Leonard Orban as not meeting the GA criteria because it has "Non-free images without fair-use rationale".

Why is the criticism of the Finkelstein bio much larger and more detailed than the praises?
I have read his books and they are all well documented with loads of footnotes to back up his conclusions. Of course there are going to be more criticisms than praise because he is taking a position that isn't politically correct. But that doesn't mean its not justified. Please make both the praise and criticism sections equal in length. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 4.239.138.147 ( talk) 04:59, 26 March 2007 (UTC).
- Removing large chunks of the text without explanation is not the way to address this. You have already been reported to WP:AIV for vandalism. Can you please bring this to the article's talk page and discuss these concerns with the other editors there.

George Albu
Dear Jayron32, Thank you for your comments on Albu. However, I must express surprise that you feel removing 2 images from the page (repeatedly) and rearranging the rest, does not constitute vandalism. If Berks had discussed the issue before his summary edits, which are simply labelled "not necessary", there might be some justification for his actions. See Lady Phillips and Lionel Phillips for similar behaviour. Unfortunately Berks has decided to target me and will carry on with his harassment until he is stopped or grows bored. Paul venter 05:22, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

This is getting too much - Berks ignored a tag on the above article which I started this morning, leading to an edit conflict which caused a loss of about an hour's work. Get him off my back or you will lose my contributions permanently. Paul venter 13:00, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
- Well I apologise for that. Firstly, your work shouldnt have been lost, it should have been in a section on the bottom half of the page, which you then could have restored to the top part of the page and saved. Secondly, it is because you have over used these templates that I assumed you weren't editing it. -- Berks105 13:05, 30 March 2007 (UTC)
Top Gear good article status
Yes Jay, I have to agree with your comments on this, the referencing thing is a major problem on these Top Gear related pages, I had to go through and add the unreferenced bar to at least half a dozen pages today within this section, although strangely not Top Gear Dog, which although fully referenced was vandalised by our friend User:DrFrench. The referencing added today to the Jon_Bentley_(TV_presenter) page is pathetic and is just a blatant excuse to avoid it being AfD'd. At that rate, there's no wonder this article failed the good article criteria especially when some of the best parts of the Top Gear section are unnecessarily vandalised, aka deleted by biased admin.

Hi Jayron, thanks for adding a warning at [User talk:72.223.1.37]]. A couple of small comments, if I may. Most importantly, you should sign warnings when you leave them. The second is that if a user has already received a {{ uw-vandalism4}} warning, it doesn't generally help to immediately add a second such warning to the user's talk page.

Re:
I perfectly know how to use GA/R and have been using it for several months which is much longer than most. Please do not come on my page and tell me how to use it like you're quoting a sermon - some of the cases I put there aren't clear cut, and even the ones that are can be disputed by anyone who wishes to do so. Only very very recently was one lone person allowed to delist an article again, until that was re-reverted, and some still dispute there should be a better process to list and fail GAs.
Furthermore, I do not need to leave "extensive notes" for others to be able to work an article back up to GA, since most are forgotten and unloved, and secondly it's up to an editor to bring an article they wish to GA and not myself, and furthermore if I did that with every GA that needs delisting I would be here until Doomsday. Good day, and please remember this if anything - quoting Wikipedia text to other editors sometimes comes across as offensive and smarmy, so please reconsider when attempting to use it again. LuciferMorgan 19:33, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- No problem. I overreacted anyway, so it's me who needs to apologise. Accept my humble apologies. I hope you see why I nominate even obvious fails for GA/R though, as some editors tend to contest their failure with you even if it's clear. When three or four people quickly say fail it tends to lend more weight to a failure. LuciferMorgan 23:18, 3 April 2007 (UTC)
- I'm bit of a picky person so I don't tend to review articles at GAC. Usually though, reviewers tend to end up specialising in areas which helps I find - mines Music personally. I can review a Music article much better than I can other articles. When reviewing a GAC, be very specific in what you think should be improved, but most of all make a flatline call - is this article way from GA, or can this be improved to GA if I place it on hold for one week? WP:PR is a good place if you wish to brush up your reviewing skills, and there's many eager for their articles to be reviewed. LuciferMorgan 00:45, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
- I can see why you'd get irked, but some cases are such a pain - no citations, prose problems, missing info, the works, and in those cases it's best to just tell them to look at a recently listed GA in the same category. When delisting GAs etc., it doesn't bother me about leaving extreme in depth reasons, as any interested editor can request such if they need it. If you think I accused you of not taking GA reviews seriously then my apologies - in your last message (which started "PS." it seemed you asked for my advice about reviewing GAs, so I just gave it. We didn't start out in conflict as such - I just find it very annoying when someone quotes from Wikipedia pages half the time. Anyway, that's all under the bridge now.

Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles example reviews
- I think putting up an actual example of a bad review is probably a bad idea. :-( people could take that personally. Outlining typical pitfalls of reviews should be enough.
- As for good reviews, ask User:Homestarmy who he thinks were the best two or three reviewers. I always liked to read User:RelHistBuff's reviews. I put a lot of work into some of my reviews, but they were kinda scattered/unorganized. Not concise examples, probably.

Timeline of chemistry bondstar
Jayron32, thanks for the chemistry bondstar. I wish I could have contributed more during the buildup, but I'm knee-deep in finishing the wrap-up details for the publication of new 500-pg textbook on human chemistry; it's quite interesting how mathematically-thick it turned out to be. See the new webpage I started last week to get a loose idea: www. humanchemistry. net . The webpage is only one page presently, but maybe down the road I'll be able to make it into a multi-level education-type website on the subject. To note, the timeline of chemistry needs a section on 21st century contributions. We might want to check out the Nobel Prize in chemistry during the last decade to get an idea or put something in there about nanotechnology or drug design, which have been big topics recently. Talk soon: -- Sadi Carnot 08:57, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
- As an example, I had added an entry on the invention of Chemical ionization mass spectrometry, which has become one of the most important "soft" ionization techniques, and is used in many diverse areas of analytical chemistry. However, I later removed it, because I realized that the addition was purely personal. One of the inventors, Burnaby Munson, was my advisor and mentor in college; though this does not undervalue his role or the importance of his discovery, its inclusion here was probably a little TOO esoteric for inclusion. Likewise, another close mentor of mine, J.L. Burmeister, has been cited as the "Father of ambidentate ligand chemistry". Fairly big in its field, but not really valid inclusion in an omnibus timeline like this.
- The key is finding discoveries whose importance has been noted so often that it has become pervasive in the literature. Discoveries of the past 10 years MAY someday reach that level of import, but it is hard to decide which recent discoveries will seem important say, another 10 years from now, and which ones will look out of place in a list like this.
- I have added some nanotechnology related discoveries, such as Kroto et al. and fullerenes, and its offshoot discoveries related to carbon nanotubes. Still, if you have specific examples you would like adding, please feel free to add them yourself, or if you are short on time, drop a note at the article's talk page. I can do the research and add more entries for you if you have specific things. Thanks again for all of your help! -- Jayron32| talk| contribs 16:24, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
Jyron, I agree about the 10 year waiting period, sometimes it’s even 30 years. I’ll try to keep my eyes open for possible recent innovators in chemistry. Soon as I get caught up, you’ll probably see me back digging around in the table, trying to tighten it. P.S. what gave you the urge to make the timeline? Talk soon: -- Sadi Carnot 13:02, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
- I hope you are watching my talk page. Makes it easier to keep the conversation going. Well, several things: 1) I noticed it was missing and probably needed, since there were smaller timelines dealing with specific chemistry fields, but no omnibus chemistry timeline. 2) I have always been very interested in History of Science type stuff. I majored in chemistry and minored in history in college, and was very close to a double major(B.S. Chemistry/B.A. History), but that would have required staying an extra year, and events conspired to make that unlikely. 3), I was eager to see what it took to get an article featured. I have never had the gumption to nominate any of my articles for feature status, and it wasn't much of my intention of getting this one there, but as it started to develop, I realized that this might be a good shot for my first test case. It worked out pretty good. My second attempt at a feature, one on Plymouth Colony, isn't going as well. It seems featured lists are much easier than featured articles.-- Jayron32| talk| contribs 04:10, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
- Yes, good work. I see your perspective better now. I've had similar thoughts about FA status, many times people have suggested this option to me on some articles I've wrote, but from other experiences in Wikipedia, it seems like it's more of mental strain than it's worth to push out FA's. -- Sadi Carnot 19:06, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Being bold and overdoing the AGF thing on Talk:Brian Wilson
Reviewing, you were one of the more concerned people, so I thought I should ask your blessing (or other). If you review the history for Talk:Brian Wilson you see the former miscreant wanting very much to hide. Hopefully, they simply want to let the misdeeds be in the past. I've been thinking about this for awhile, that we should archive (not disappear) the threads so that they can be less embarrassed. I've created an archive for the talk page and moved those last two threads into there. I updated your links to your WP:ANI postings so they can be found in those archives. And, of course, I have the new archive on my watchlist, as is proving to be necessary more and more. (Did you know AN/I archives aren't protected?!!) Any severe objections? I've already mentioned to one person I'll either get an AGF badge, or a multi-pointed something applied rudely if the miscreant reverts to old form. (sigh) Shenme 01:10, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
- I see no problem with archiving the talk page. To make it appear as though you are not merely archiving the "evidence", it might be a good idea to archive all posts older than XXXX, where XXXX is the date of the last bad post by the prodigal editor in question. That way, we don't have to keep this stuff in his "face", while also being able to make the whole archiving appear neutral. You have my blessing. -- Jayron32| talk| contribs 03:22, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
