how is this different from "condensing"? -- Tarquin 18:18 Jan 23, 2003 (UTC)

Good question, they both imply "enter the liquid state". Webster does not mention that liquefy implies that it should be from the gas state, though. User:Egil


To whomever that moved from liquefy to liquify:

liquefy is the preferred variant in both Concise Oxford and Merriam-Webster. Please undo. [[User:Egil]


Again, rename it to liquefy. There is no reason to wait. See Egil's comment.

Done. Fowler says "e" too. -- Tarquin 23:23 Jan 24, 2003 (UTC)

Can we merge this to some article? This is just a dictionary entry and doesn't seem to expand well in the future either. Any idea? -- Taku 04:25 May 12, 2003 (UTC)

Can we move liquefaction to its own article as it pertains to earthquakes and quicksand?

done. Ungtss 23:22, 8 Dec 2004 (UTC)

[edit] merge?

shall we merge this into Liquefaction now that it's a disambiguation page too? Ungtss 17:44, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)

oops. liquification already redirects here, so we can't do that. shall we have an admin move this page to liquification? Ungtss 17:56, 22 Apr 2005 (UTC)
