Someone's created a new article titled differential group delay, which may be of interest to this group (if this group exists......) Michael Hardy ( talk) 05:23, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
I've updated my page about missing physics topics, including the section about the optics - Skysmith ( talk) 10:37, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
Wikipedia has no article titled optical device, although maybe 15 or 20 or so articles link to it. It now redirects to a very short article titled optical instrument. Apparently a telescope or the like is an "instrument" whereas "device" includes simple components of intruments(?).
Should there be a separate article rather than a redirect? Michael Hardy ( talk) 16:55, 3 December 2010 (UTC)
I have created Missing topics about Optics (split from the Physics page) - Skysmith ( talk) 11:23, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
Just in case anyone is watching this page, I'm reporting this old AfC submission that may be of interest. Is this a notable journal? — Anne Delong ( talk) 15:11, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time! (Also, sorry about the posting mistake earlier. If someone already moved my message to the talk page, feel free to remove this posting.) Harej ( talk) 22:47, 1 October 2014 (UTC)
Hello everyone!
You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!
Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

The result of the move request was: mark historical. Number 5 7 11:24, 15 February 2016 (UTC)
Wikipedia:WikiProject Optics → Wikipedia:WikiProject Physics/Taskforces/Optics – Per other dead wikiprojects, this should be merged to an active project in a more general topic area. Since optics is a subfield of physics, it should merge there as a taskforce. -- 70.51.44.60 ( talk) 07:45, 8 December 2015 (UTC)--Relisted. jcc ( tea and biscuits) 21:58, 7 January 2016 (UTC)

Wikipedia's policy on article titles.I just came to this page thinking that it was an active project because of two articles, Optometry and Optician, which should be in this wikiproject, if it were active. I don't see a significant difference in their definitions and am wondering if the two should be merged. See WP:RD/S#What's the difference between an optician and an optometrist?. — Sebastian 20:47, 16 December 2015 (UTC)
My list of missing topics about optics is updated - Skysmith ( talk) 15:38, 8 January 2017 (UTC)
What optical instrument is this computer using?— Preceding unsigned comment added by Jim.henderson ( talk • contribs) 19:00, 2 May 2018 (UTC)
In case anyone is still here, some help would be appreciated at Phase_detector#Optical_phase_detectors. I have marked the section as needing expert attention. ~ Kvng ( talk) 17:12, 21 June 2021 (UTC)
I have created these eight pages, all redirects to Photoelasticity.
