[edit] Clifton

No worries; thanks for taking the time to explain. Hesperian 05:31, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Invite Bristol wikiproject

[edit] HF2

I've seen this described as a Three-center four-electron bond, but I'm not convinced. Pimentel's work is very old. Is there anything more modern? Do look this up and change it if you're sure that I am wrong.

Regarding the square brackets, they really don't belong here. They are used for transition metal complexes like [Ni(NH₃)₆]²⁺ because otherwise there would be two lots of round brackets. Where there is no ambiguity it's better to leave the brackets out. Check out the autoionisation equation , p816, Greenwood & Earnshaw.

My other objection is that square brackets are used to denote concentration in the context of chemical equilibrium, so again leave them out if they don't really add anything.

P.S. Norman Greenwood was my boss for a time and Alan Earnshaw an old friend and colleague.Petergans 20:14, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

Are you really sure about 3c-4e bonding? My doubts are 1) the diagram in the article shows a p orbital on the central atom; surely the H 2p is much too high energy? 2) All that stuff about hypervalent is quite superceded. In those days they were a bit fixated by the octet rule. PX₅ uses 3d which are not as far above 3p in P(V) as in lower oxidation states, and the octet rule does not apply. I only have access to SciFinder if I go in to the University, so it's not easy for me to search for the results of any recent calculations.Petergans 22:01, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] EPR article

I moved the EPR article from Electron Spin Resonance to Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, since about 99% of the time it referred to EPR and not ESR. Take a look when you have a moment. Some sections still need a lot of work, especially the one on applications of EPR. - Astrochemist 19:58, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Real Samba and Chris Jackson

They were not made up dude! Im new to this and struggled with the programming to site references correctly. Real Samba FC was an ameteur team like the thousands listed on Wikipedia, they achievements were locally lauded and anyone living in the midlands of the UK would know who both Real Samba FC and Chris Jackson were. I know you didnt delete the Chris Jackson page but just because Google doesnt bring anything major up it doesnt mean they are non notable. Google aint the bible of all history of all time!

[edit] Thanks...

...for taking time to help get me up to speed re notability guidelines, etc. Best regards, Zcoffin 15:28, 7 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Columbus band notability

Yeah sure i see your point, they arn't realy notable in any way that i can think of.

Oh and can you check the band logo on the page DARTZ! for me because im not sure about it.

[edit] Black Eyed Peas: Chart History

Can you not be so tight and just leave it there.. im not gonna give up so you might aswell. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Poetry-Bed (talk

[edit] MI-5 Persecution

This is the second article I created, and the first to receive notice of speedy deletion. I can point to several threads in different Usenet forums to attest to WP:N, and I understand that W:BLP must be adhered. If you can assist in making this a proper article, please do and give me feedback. Thank you. MMetro (talk) 20:50, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Linear molecule with bond angle of 180° etc

I dont think that the article was maliciously conceived, but it was redundant with diatomic molecule and kind of dopey, so I changed it to a redirect. Hopefully no one will howl. Nice work you're doing, by the way, Cheers.--Smokefoot (talk) 21:54, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cranky sound system

From the looks of this case, this article doesn't meet A7. Try WP:AFD. --Coredesat 00:22, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] /othrtermdefn

No it was deliberate.

I want to create a sub page to use as a transclusion object for a table which is separately editable but not a section with its own edit link.

Is there another way to do it ?

Pee Tern (talk) 21:53, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I am just a beginner - how did you pick it up so quickly ? Pee Tern (talk) 22:13, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Desert Hills Middle School Article!

I understand that this article may be about a group of people. However, i have, over the years, noticed many other middle school pages on this website. What would be able to restore it???

[edit] RuP₃(CO)₂

Great job cleaning this thing up and then making it inviting for a wave of editing. You can expect that more material will flow into that article now that you got this thing started.--Smokefoot (talk) 00:09, 3 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Square brackets around complex ions

I often see edits on my watchlist where you bracket up previously naked ions.

Would it be worth drafting a guideline on the use of such brackets for Wikipedia:WikiProject Chemicals/Style guidelines?

It would give WP chemists a chance to discuss the issue, and would provide novices like me a clear explanation of when to use this style, and why it is preferable.

Great editing, by the way.

Cheers

[edit] Speedy deletion nomination of Dissident Warwick

Hello, Brichcja. Thanks for keeping an eye out on article quality. I'm dropping you a note to let you know that I have removed the speedy deletion template that you placed on Dissident Warwick because the article does not seem to fit the speedy deletion criterion. While the article certainly doesn't do much to assert notability, WP:CSD#A7 is specifically for people (grouped or individuals) or web content. People's products, like books and albums, are explicitly excluded, so I'm afraid that it cannot apply to a magazine. Please consider other means for addressing ongoing concerns. Feel free to let me know at my talk page if you'd like to discuss this further. Thanks. Moonriddengirl ^(talk) 01:27, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
