I think your edit to Computational chemistry is fine. At some point, it might be moved off to a sub-page. This article needs a complete overall cleanup. However, I am less happy about the fact that you broke five links in that edit - two by changing semiempirical to semi-empirical, two by changing Huckel method to Hückel method, and one by changing caps to small in the Generalized valence bond (GVB) link. I have fixed all of these while retaining your spelling in the article itself. When you change anything in a link, please check it still works and also fix it so it goes direct to the article not via a redirect. --Bduke 22:36, 24 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] NPOV edit to MK Dons F.C.
A good edit to text that had already been toned down(!) from a rather vituperative first version! It'll be interesting to see if yours survives.
But I'm interested to know why you wrote that Max Griggs "franchised" the creation of R&D - it is curious word to use. You might want to look at Professional sports league organization and Relocation of professional sports teams, as this is a complete minefield! (The article "Franchise (sports) collapsed to a redirect to a disambig in the course of discussion). --Concrete Cowboy 19:40, 8 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Area format
Hi Lfh. I agree with your suggestion and have commented to that effect Peter Shearan 16:03, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dr Reid
Sorry, you're right to remove the iniial Dr from John Reid. I should have read WP:MOSBIO#Academic_titles properly! :) --BrownHairedGirl 22:09, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
Yes, I made the same mistake. Apologies. Shotlandiya
[edit] Murali the leg-spinner
Hi,
A little bit out of left field, I know, but anyway.
Ya see, SuggestBot predicted that I would enjoy editing, inter alia, Wrist spin... and looking thru the history, there you were.
Can you remember which games that, when Murali was no-balled bowling off-spin, he switched to wrist-spin for the rest of his overs? My recollection is that these were ODIs in 1995-6 or so. No, really, this is a serious question!

[edit] Bloomsbury, London
Good edits. Good use of language. Nice one. SilkTork 23:35, 18 February 2007 (UTC)
I've fiddled a bit. The naming convention for London boroughs is to do with the article names, not with referencing them in other articles, when the more informal or common term can or indeed should be employed - especially when the word London already appears in the sentence. I've taken your cue on the Southampton Row-Woburn Place road and tidied that up so it makes more sense. I cut down the listing of the areas bordering Bloomsbury and attempted to name them all in a descriptive way. General readers find it difficult to simply take in lists of names. I shall be looking more closely at the intro to the article later - at the moment there is a heavy list of colleges which needs cutting down before somebody falls asleep attempting to plough through it! Regards. SilkTork 00:50, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
I see your point about the boroughs not being significant enough to appear in the first sentence. I haven't approached the London Project yet, but plan to anyway regarding the large template which contains information more relevant to a city template than an area of a city. This would also be a matter to raise with them. Are you a member of the project? SilkTork 15:59, 19 February 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not a member of any project, I just come and go as I please really. As for district names we currently seem to have reached a compromise along the lines of "X is an area/suburb of n/s/e/w London in the London Borough of Y, located Z miles n/s/e/w of Charing Cross". It could be changed but there are a lot of district articles and someone would have to go through all of them - though having said that, they are not consistent even now.

[edit] Partial oxidation
Hi, Lfh, thanks for the translation of Partial oxidation, two comments; 1 orphan files, on the left, what links here, you can have a check on which articles are linking to the newly created article, i made one link on Syngas, so people reading the article on syngas are aware that the article on Partial oxidation also exists (directly related). second the category, click on the category, most of the times there are interwikilinks there as well to find the right category in the other language, if you dont do it yourself, somebody else has to do it. The tranlation proces, the new setup is a bit to complex, good thing is you found the article to translate, (step, 1) the next steps are for people who have interest in it to follow them, feel free, to do so, or just leave it. , in fact every reader of the article is a proofreader, so i dont see the sense of tagging the article as , needs proofreading. so, thanks and feel free, Cheers.
