Well, I'll fix that:

Nathaniel, this was strange too.  It should automatically update itself when you make the new [[User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 2]] page, but it didn't.  I had to change the auto=long function to auto=yes then back to auto=long.  We have issues with the cache occasionally, so it probably had something  do with not refreshing.  Aren't computers fun ;-) --[[User:D.

== Biographies ==


Hi Nathaniel, I notice that you've uploaded several articles (apparently from Wikipedia) about various living peopleI can't detect any pattern.  So, for lack of a better way to put it: what are you up to?  Frankly, it makes me worried because we might have to really fire up our [[CZ:Policy on Topic Informants|Policy on Topic Informants]] at a time when we can ill afford the time to do so.  In the meantime, could you perhaps focus on some better-known people?  Maybe some dead ones?  :-) --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 21:53, 11 March 2007 (CDT)
You have to add more than just the Archive 3.  You have to create this: [[User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 3]] (<nowiki>[[User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 3]]</nowiki>).  Go ahead and click on it and type something in the page and save it and lets see if it works.  Don't worry, I can delete it. --[[User:D.

Thanks for the explanation. OK, the only other thing I'd like to request, if I may, is that you have a look at [[CZ:WP2CZ|this page]] and expand the four WP-sourced articles you've imported. We don't want to create just a mirror of Wikipedia. TIA! --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 11:17, 12 March 2007 (CDT)
Good job!  I deleted them for you. --[[User:D. Matt Innis|Matt Innis]] [[User talk:D. Matt Innis|(Talk)]] 19:40, 12 June 2007 (CDT)
 
== Special relativity article ==
 
Hi I saw that you made a start with an artice on special relativity. How do you propose to continue from here? Some time ago I gave criticism about the historical contents on its Talk page and I later noted that you were responsible for the first version - but I saw no feedback from you. Could you say what your sources were for the historical claims? Have you looked at issues about accuracy and opinion that have already been addressed, discussed and corrected in Wikipedia? Note that physics textbooks are not always reliable about history. I know almost everything about the early history of the development of that theory and have most original papers (which I read) so I will gladly help with this.
 
Best regards,

Archive 2

Nathaniel, this was strange too. It should automatically update itself when you make the new User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 2 page, but it didn't. I had to change the auto=long function to auto=yes then back to auto=long. We have issues with the cache occasionally, so it probably had something do with not refreshing. Aren't computers fun ;-) --Matt Innis (Talk) 19:08, 12 June 2007 (CDT)


You have to add more than just the Archive 3. You have to create this: User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 3 ([[User talk:Nathaniel Dektor/Archive 3]]). Go ahead and click on it and type something in the page and save it and lets see if it works. Don't worry, I can delete it. --Matt Innis (Talk) 19:28, 12 June 2007 (CDT)

Special relativity article

Hi I saw that you made a start with an artice on special relativity. How do you propose to continue from here? Some time ago I gave criticism about the historical contents on its Talk page and I later noted that you were responsible for the first version - but I saw no feedback from you. Could you say what your sources were for the historical claims? Have you looked at issues about accuracy and opinion that have already been addressed, discussed and corrected in Wikipedia? Note that physics textbooks are not always reliable about history. I know almost everything about the early history of the development of that theory and have most original papers (which I read) so I will gladly help with this.
