Talk:Parts cleaning

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Article Start

Hi, my name is Klaus Kuhl and I work for the Cooperation Centre in Hamburg. We have conducted several European projects about parts cleaning. Recently we have written an article about it, which has been checked and slightly modified by our panel of German cleaning specialists. This article is on the German wikipedia since December last year (Teilereinigung). Meanwhile we have translated the article into English and added related literature. I want to upload this article to the English wikipedia under ‘parts cleaning’. Any comments are welcome.--Kuhl-k 19:59, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

Hello, and welcome to the English Wikipedia. I am not familiar with the German Wikipedia and its policies, but you may want to look at the following policies on the English Wikipedia before uploading your article: Wikipedia:Neutral point of view, Wikipedia:Notability, Wikipedia:Reliable sources, Wikipedia:Conflict of interest. If your article doesn't conflict with any of these policies, then add it. I'm not sure that Parts cleaning is the best title, though. What kind of parts are you talking about? The title isn't very clear -- it might be better to come up with something more specific that lets the reader know exactly what the article is about. I hope that helps. If you have any further questions, post them here or on my talk page, and I'll try to help. —PurpleRAIN 20:13, 8 February 2007 (UTC)

This issue is raised in the beginning of the article. There are several terms like metal cleaning, metal surface cleaning, degreasing. But to our opinion and to the opinion of a panel of German specialist parts cleaning seems to be most appropriate. Anyway I will put the article on and I will also put your comment under 'discussion' so we might get more opinions on that issue. Rgds. --Kuhl-k 11:17, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Web links section

Why is there a web links section? Are these references? They look like simple linkspam to me. --Mattarata 03:34, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

They ARE references from the heading "Challenges and trends", where I explained what certain institutes developed to help users not to depend on their suppliers only. E.g.: SAGE: A comprehensive expert system for parts cleaning and degreasing, which provides online, according to the user requirements, a graded list with relatively general processes of possible solvent and process alternatives. Developed by the Surface Cleaning Programme at the Research Triangle Institute, Raleigh, North Carolina, USA, in cooperation with the U.S. EPA (English only, link see below). Maybe I should add some explanation to the weblinks. --Kuhl-k 22:05, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I added some explanations to the weblinks. --Kuhl-k 13:20, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
