"Hi David, Is your list in computers going to be extensive or an example of what is and what is needed? It might be easier to start from the Computers page and scrolling down and copying in present and lacking articles. That way we are not creating a clutter os loose threads without coherence. Let me hear your thoughts on it please. Robert Tito | Talk 22:07, 21 February 2007 (CST)"


Actually, I was just trying to make sure the article I created was not an isolated orphan. I'll link to it from the "See also" section in Computers.

Added some fundamentals to the chemistry pages as it was not clear that contrary to physics chemistry deals only with the interactions between electrons or physical forces with electron(s).

==The Human Skeletal System==
What do you mean by this comment on my discussion page? What does "nowiki'd" mean? I am new here:

Robert Tito | Talk 22:13, 15 February 2007 (CST) "


It was never my intention to create a disconnected page in isolation. Yes, the human skeletal system is a subset of human anatomy, which wiki page I created because it didn't exist. Human anatomy is a subset of Anatomy, which page I also created. Anatomy is a subset of Morphology, which page I also created. If you go to the Biology page now, you will find that, if you click on the Anatomy link, it will lead you now through anatomy and human anatomy to skeletal anatomy.
On my user welcome page, http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User_talk:Michael_Mills, you indicated that I was accepted as an editor:
You have to understand that pages don't just appear full grown. They have to be built up and, in a lot of cases the basic structure isn't even there yet. So, if you've done something that will make my hard work disappear, please undo it now.

At this point, I'm pretty confused.  Thanks for helping to clarify this.


I received a masters in physical chemistry and biochemistry in 1982 from the free university of amsterdam and was awarded a doctorate at the leiden university in physical chemistry on a study on the dynamic behavior of partially charged polyelectrolytes in a bad solvent in the very diluted regime.
-- Mike Mills


After that I did quite some research for privately held companies that didn't allow publication of the researches executed. Slowly moving away from chemictry toward process automation and interactions with databases I became more and more interested with the concept of active databasemanagement in laborotory situations - extending towards office automation and distributed computer problems.

== the Status and the nature of wiki's ==
== Question ==


I wonder what we want the nature and status of CZ to be: neutral in all its content or colored based upon culture, politics or personal opinions.
Robert: Yesterday, I got started.  I moved over my Wikipedia article on Combustion Analysis.  I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved.  Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- [[User:Gordan Feric|Gordan Feric]] Robert: Yesterday, I got started.  I moved over my Wikipedia article on [[Combustion Analysis]]. I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved. Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- [[User:Gordan Feric|Gordan Feric]]
So far the latter leads only to more biased reproductions of facts - nearly all mingled with personal opinions and trying to bring personal thoughts as being factual.
:Gordan, you cannot tag the article as to approve, that has to be done by 1 editor, not affiliated/contributing to the article. I will remove the ToApprove template, and advice you to check out the approval process, see the help pages.

As an example: whether or not anyone is for the death penalty. That is an opinion, not something accepted in many countries. In most if not all european countries talking about the capital punishment is allowed - sure why not, but impossible to implement due to constitutions. And rightfully so - any culture claiming to be of high moral value should ask that same question: does it show any high level of ethics to maintain the capital punishment or does it show the old rule of an eye for an eye.
As Mahatma Ghandi said: an eye for an eye makes the world blind.


== Cycles Research ==
purple egg ۝
Robert, thanks for the welcome. My interest in joining citizendium is cycles research which is an interdisciplinary field covering all manner of subjects - economics, biology, geology, astronomy, physics, history, etc etc. Therefore it doesn't sit neatly in the scheme of subjects unless added in its own right (which I generally find people object to). Any suggestions are welcome. I consider myself an expert in cycles research with a smattering of knowledge in many other fields. I would like to be an Author and Editor regarding cycles subjects. If this is possible then I will start making some contributions. [[User:RayTomes|RayTomes]] 22:45, 29 January 2007 (CST)


== [[User:Jeff Cook]] ==
::Robert: Thanks for the answer and corresponding feedback. As you can see, I am new with Wikipedia and Citizendium and their way of getting things accomplished. I am learning, but I still need some help while learing the basic principles of how the Citizendium article approval process works.  Hopefully, my first article on Combustion Analysis will help me find out for the new and future articles.  Basically, once I am done with an article, I just add a Category Tag at  the bottom of the article page -- Engineering Workgroup -- and the rest is up to the Editors and I just need to follow the discussion page on what my responsibilities are.

Hello Robert, how are you? I've been trying since this morning to upload a picture of Noam Chomsky (with a Creative Commons licence), however the system kept giving me some strange messages.

Hi there.  I am a newly minted chemistry editor and recently added some comments to the [[Macromolecular chemistry]] talk page.  [[User:Nancy Sculerati|Nancy]] suggested that I discuss with you suggested changes to improve this page.
:No, <b>I</b> was using that template to attempt to mark for the constables pages that had been created by the vandals.  I was blanking and reverting as fast as I could, and leaving that in pages that (obviously) had no business being on Citizendium.  The vandals never used that.  [[User:Shanya Almafeta|Shanya Almafeta]] 23:00, 30 January 2007 (CST)
::OK, then I'll remake it on that page then. -- [[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] 23:32, 30 January 2007 (CST)


Would it be beneficial if I made the Speedydelete template record who put it down? That way you could tell if a vandal was dropping it or if a counter-vandal was? --[[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] 23:51, 30 January 2007 (CST)
My most grievous concern is that the opening paragraph incorrectly defines "macromolecule". My biology textbook (Purves) and Physical Biochemistry (van Holden) textbook state that "proteins are polymers of amino acids", a definition which contradicts the introductory definition. The introduction also incorrectly implies that "polymer" and "plastic" are synonymous.  Unfortunately, this incorrect definition is proliferated throughout the article.
:Sadly, it appears harder to force that than I'd like. -- [[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] 00:07, 31 January 2007 (CST)
:In my books, Tanford the physical chemistry of macromolecules it mentions proteins are examples of macromolecules, as does Lehninger in his book Biochemistry. The point I tried to make here was to make it clear to readers polymers are macromolecules and vv. But ask a general reader what is a polymer and they invariantly say: plastic, nylon. Not once it comes to thought biological molecules (many of which are macromolecular in nature) are polymers as well. Or using its synonym macromolecule.


The template code is [http://pilot.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Template:Speedydelete&action=edit here].  But I'm in the middle of messing with it at the moment. -- [[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] 00:25, 31 January 2007 (CST)
Second, I'm not sure that this article presents the reader with "lucid, highly readable introductions written in compelling, narrative prose that really does the job of introducing a topic to people who need one" as per [[CZ:Introduction_to_CZ_for_Wikipedians#Get_ready_to_rethink_how_to_write_encyclopedia_articles.21|CZ article helpful hints]] There is a lot of information in this article but there is not much to inform the reader what the field of macromolecular chemistry is all about.
:As it is not intended to do. It only tries to interest the reader to delve into follow-up chapters, each already mentioned by the suvdivisions later in the article. The world of polymers and (biological) macromolecules is far too complext to treat in one place and still be readable to and for general public. The deeper the reader delves the more a specialist one needs to be to understand. In my idea nobody needs to know any details of chemistry of physics to understand the top layer. The details as usual are far more complex - but acant and must not be touched in a top layer article, IMHO.


I need to do my homework.  As it now stands, I can't get it to identify the user who laid down the template automatically.  I'll work on it tomorrow, but it's quarter to 2 in the morning, and I have 90 minutes of homework to do. -- [[User:ZachPruckowski|ZachPruckowski]] 00:45, 31 January 2007 (CST)
Third, the overemphasis on biological macromolecules seems inconsistent with common usage.  The journal ''Macromolecules'', for example, primarily emphasizes synthetic polymers and macromolecules.  Discussions of proteins and nucleic acids typically find their ways into biology and biochemistry journals and come with their own set of terminology.  
: In the labs I worked Gorleaus Laboratory, University of Leiden as well as the free university and the university of amsterdam that distinction never was put in that way and it didnt matter be it biochemistry biophysics, physical chemistry or macromolecular chemistry.


==Re protection==
My general suggestion is that we take this article and start to part it out into smaller articles.  For example, the '''Macromolecules''' and '''Functions of macromolecules''' and '''Biomacromolecules''' sections could form the basis for a pretty hefty article on macromolecules.  The '''Economics and Environment''' section could be expanded into an article on plastics.  And the section entitled '''Introduction to Physical Polymer Chemistry''' seems to describe the discipline of [[polymer physics]].  Once this material has been seeded to additional articles, we can either redirect this page to the [[polymer chemistry]] page (which needs some work) or build a page from the ground up which describes the ''field'' of macromolecular chemistry, including history, professional organizations, and basic concepts along the lines of the flagship [[chemistry page]].

:: I don't think that I'm making myself clear.  Here are the points that I'm trying to make.


Thanks very much for helping when my user page was vandalised yesterday. One small quibble, though. After my user page was moved to an offensive title, someone restored the old content at the correct page, and then you deleted the page at the offensive title. However, this destroyed the edit history of that page (since the page you deleted was actually the original user page, just moved to a different location). Now, in this instance, it's not really a problem, because there's nothing of importance in the history. In other cases, though, it might be a problem, so I suggest making a general practice of moving the page back rather than deleting it. Cheers, [[User:Nat Krause|Nat Krause]] 13:50, 31 January 2007 (CST)
#  '''The fields of macromolecular chemistry and polymer chemistry are the same thing. No external, reputable source makes a clear distinction between the two. '''


:No problem. I appreciate the need for alacrity.&mdash;[[User:Nat Krause|Nat Krause]] 14:04, 1 February 2007 (CST)
I have presented some evidence above, namely the charter of the prominent (highest impact factor journal ''Macromolecules''. There is also the Wiley-published Journal of Macromolecular Chemistry whose stated aim is to publish "...original research papers in all topical areas of polymer chemistry and physics." [http://www.wiley-vch.de/publish/en/journals/alphabeticIndex/2261/]


== Astronomy high priority items ==
Consider also the IUPAC division IV, referred to as both the MACROMOLECULAR DIVISION[http://www.iupac.org/divisions/IV/] and POLYMER DIVISION[http://www.iupac.org/divisions/IV/] and responsible for the IUPAC goldbook which recommends treating "macromolecule" and "polymer molecule" as synonyms.

Consider for example the contents of the 3-volume work "Macromolecular chemistry" published by the Royal Society, which devotes nearly three quarters of its 400 pages to synthetic organic chemistry and the characterization of synthetic organic polymers [http://www.rsc.org/ebooks/archive/free/BK9780851868769/BK9780851868769-FP007.pdf].


== Warning on blocking Users ==
# '''The current article emphasizes biological macromolecules, especially proteins, which represent only a small fraction of active research in macromolecular chemistry.'''
Hi Rob,


The only problem I can think of, is that perhaps you blocked this user and did not "uncheck" the box,
The work cited above devotes less than 20 pages to proteins and fewer than 50 to naturally occurring polymers.  I would also suggest perusing recent copies of prominent journals such as ''Macromolecules'' and ''Journal of Macromolecular Chemistry''. In recent issues, the only mention of polypeptides or proteins is a single article on ''laboratory-synthesized'' polypeptides. The rest is all synthetic polymers.
"Prevent account creation."
If you leave this checked, anyone with the same IP address, can not set up a new account, like Jeff Cook. How do you fix this? Perhaps, you have to unblock him and then reblock him, with "prevent account creation" unchecked. My best guess... --[[User:Ruth Ifcher|Ruth Ifcher]] 21:28, 31 January 2007 (CST)
Addenda: It looks like you may have done this with all your blocks. You do not want to do this to a User who created an account with a badly formed name, say. If you do not uncheck "Prevent account creation," all these new Users are banned undefinitely.See the list of blocked IP addresses and Usernames. All you blocks prevent account creation.

--[[User:Ruth Ifcher|Ruth Ifcher]] 21:38, 31 January 2007 (CST)
Put simply, I think that there is no precedent for separating "macromolecular chemistry" and "polymer chemistry" into two separate articles because the prominent organizations in chemistry (IUPAC, RSC, ACS) agree that they are one and the same.  If you can provide sources to the contrary I am happy to be wrong but I think that you are drawing an artificial distinction between the two.  [[User:Jacob Jensen|Jacob Jensen]] 22:27, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

::I'm still not sure what you are saying.  If we are writing to a non-technical audience at any level, our first approach should be to disabuse them of any incorrect notions (such as the synonymity of "plastic" and "polymer") and introduce them to the language that scientists speak. Since no professional chemistry organization sees any difference between "polymer chemistry" and "macromolecular chemistry", it seems counterproductive to generate multiple articles suggesting that there ''is'' a difference.

::In either event, please have a look at the [[polymer chemistry]] page that I have created.

Hi Robert, what a pain, hopefully they'll grow up soon. For future reference, don't delete the users immediately. For example, your deletion here:  
::"''(Deletion log); 00:27 . . Robert Tito (Talk | contribs) (deleted "User:Jared Brogan")''"


took the RNA interference edit history with it too. It was a sophisated switch-a-roo which means the current RNA interference page has vandalism in the page and I cannot revert back to the last good version. I believe this might even be their strategy. The best strategy to beat these vandals is to block them but only delete once the moves have been undone. I noticed several other instance where the edit history and in some cases the content was deleted too.
::I know I can, I know you cannot :) you contributed way too much to do that :D Editors who do agree with the approval proposal should however put their names in the approval-tag. Suppose I asked the coppers to do it, they now will have to read ALL of the talk pages to see if it is according to the rules - hey they can use their time better. Two editors allows the third to initiate the approval process - executed by a copper. It would be far easier if two or three editor names appear in the approval tag in stead of being mentioned as a 'side remark'. I will approve the article later today and execute the corresponding hussle of files. cheers.

I just finished adding the Wikipedia template to all the high priority Astronomy articles where needed. Do you want me to do the same with the high priority Physics articles?

Yes, I think that it was neccessary.  It was lifted directly from Wikipedia, and was much too long according to both Wikipedia and Citizendium's guidelines.  If people want to put parts of the Wikipedia article in Canada, of course I have no objection, but I think that keeping it all in is not productive and makes creating a clearly written article that much more confusing.

Anthony,
I didnot give Walter editor status, as I am 'just' a constable, however due to his profile I invited him to apply asap as editor - and enforced it by the ewelcome :). Walter is a scientist/clinical psychiatrist in Holland and I know of their work. So being editor myself I merely wanted to stimulate him to become one as well. For that reason he (still) has author-ship as category.

Well, I can't answer the second question, but the name is not that "funny" (as a typical Lithuanian one). It coincides with the name of a PhD student of neurobiology at the International School for Advanced Studies [http://www.sissa.it/main/?p=PHONEBOOK&surname=Lamanauskas&name=Nerijus].  Restoring the account and leaving a request for a bio, wouldn't it be a better solution?

The answer is not clear. Firstly, chaos-related topics come often from physics (see [[Self-organized criticality|SOC]], or [[power law]]), so this is somehow inter-disciplinary; secondly, to decide math workgroup internal structure we should probably have more eyes there (and at the moment I see not many editors nor active authors).

==Stubs==
 
In reference to your comment:
"small introductory pieces are mentioned as stubs in the summary as well as in the text (can you agree with this way to seperate articles?) Robert Tito | Talk 22:20, 16 February 2007 (CST)"
 
I created a Template:stub, since none existed, as follows:
 
'''Stub''' - This is a stub. Feel free to edit the content of this page, section, or paragraph, depending on where you found this message. However, if there are links, please do not alter or delete them without conferring with the author of the referenced pages. The stub was probably put here to create a hierachy to form a path between the page above and below this one.
 
This means that, when one adds the phrase "stub" enclosed by double braces on a page, the above phrase will appear in its stead. I notice that some people have been adding phrases like "fish-stub" to their pages. I don't think this is appropriate. A stub, is a stub, is a stub, no matter what your page is about..
 
Your thoughts?
 
== Slow down please... ==

==Macro-lollipops==
 
I reck'n that this baby's ok 'cept these bits:
 
: Larger hydrocarbon molecules will shy away from the solvent water and will form a double layer system of water and oil. The thorough mixing of these two layers into a stable emulsion is a basic ingredient of cooking. Anyone who has tried to mix an oily ingredient with a watery ingredient will know of the separation of phases (for instance mayonnaise) and easy home experiments will solve that problem.
 
: An example is electrostatic shielding of charges on partially charged polyelectrolytes by hydrophobic, non-polar functional groups, where the charges on the macromolecule respond to each other over smaller distances than normal, thereby reducing the charge-driven repulsion between charged parts of the molecule. For each individual charge, the other charges seem to be farther away because this shielding reduces their effect.

Editor status confusion

Tito,

On my user welcome page, http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User_talk:Michael_Mills, you indicated that I was accepted as an editor:

"Welcome to the Citizendium! We're very glad you've joined us as an editor. Most of your functions you share with authors, so you'll probably want to read how to get started as an author." Hey Matt, as we have been through 2 approvals of Chiropractic, could you find it in your heart to finish approval for critical views of chiropractic? Look it over again please. I've been waiting on you to get the full text of those chiropractic articles.

LOL Chris, I talked about the archive box. The link to my name is not correct it seems. Robert Tito (Talk)
I know the problem with the archive box. i designed it for the article space and forgot it might be used on user talk pages. Consequently, it links to the CZ article about you rather than your user page. Apparently you, and Larry, are not notable enough for your own articles ;) I can fix it though and then it will point to your user page. Chris Day (Talk) 10:56, 20 March 2007 (CDT)
OK, archive box is fixed, I think that is how you wanted it. You signature still needs to be tweeked too. At present the red talk link does not link to anywhere. The bolded code above will fix the problem. Chris Day (Talk) 13:11, 20 March 2007 (CDT)

Question

Hello. You welcomed me to citizendium earlier [1] and I would like to thank you. Also, I have a question regarding society and religion. I was wondering if citizendium has any experts on hand who specialize in society, history and religion in South Asia.If not, then I can utilize my contacts to solicit help from peer-reviewed scholars in US universities who specialize in such topics to build good articles here.Analabha Roy 01:34, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Hi, thanks for your input. Responded on Matt's page -- as the discussion there is the most complete and there is another math editor invited to put comments there (so let's centralize the discussion). --AlekStos 12:30, 26 March 2007 (CDT)

Well the only thing I wonder about is the following, but it is minor: We use O(something) and call O order of , usually trailing fast to 0. In general it can be called trailing part fastly approaching 0) hence O can also be interpreted as order of nearly zero. Anything to make it more transparant is welcome.

Question

Robert: Yesterday, I got started. I moved over my Wikipedia article on Combustion Analysis. I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved. Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- Gordan Feric Robert: Yesterday, I got started. I moved over my Wikipedia article on Combustion Analysis. I made a link to the Engineering Drafts and Engineering Articles to be Approved. Do I have do something else? Thanks, Gordan -- Gordan Feric

Gordan, you cannot tag the article as to approve, that has to be done by 1 editor, not affiliated/contributing to the article. I will remove the ToApprove template, and advice you to check out the approval process, see the help pages. Robert Tito |  Talk  11:06, 29 March 2007 (CDT)

Robert: Thanks for the answer and corresponding feedback. As you can see, I am new with Wikipedia and Citizendium and their way of getting things accomplished. I am learning, but I still need some help while learing the basic principles of how the Citizendium article approval process works. Hopefully, my first article on Combustion Analysis will help me find out for the new and future articles. Basically, once I am done with an article, I just add a Category Tag at the bottom of the article page -- Engineering Workgroup -- and the rest is up to the Editors and I just need to follow the discussion page on what my responsibilities are. Thanks, Gordan Gordan Feric
Robert: I have another question. Now, I do know how to create new pages. How about deleting the pages that I do not need any more? Can I delete such pages or who does that part? Thanks, Gordan Gordan Feric To delete a page you submit a request at constables(@citizendium.org requesting the deletion, OR you can add the {{speedydelete}} template. The latter makes it simple: add that tag and it will be taken care of by one of the constables. cheers, Robert Tito |  Talk  13:28, 29 March 2007 (CDT)

Hello Robert, how are you? I've been trying since this morning to upload a picture of Noam Chomsky (with a Creative Commons licence), however the system kept giving me some strange messages. Finally some minutes ago I was able to upload the picture, but when I look at the page it´s seems all my attempts got recorded.

Macromolecular Chemistry

Hi there. I am a newly minted chemistry editor and recently added some comments to the Macromolecular chemistry talk page. Nancy suggested that I discuss with you suggested changes to improve this page.

My most grievous concern is that the opening paragraph incorrectly defines "macromolecule". My biology textbook (Purves) and Physical Biochemistry (van Holden) textbook state that "proteins are polymers of amino acids", a definition which contradicts the introductory definition. The introduction also incorrectly implies that "polymer" and "plastic" are synonymous. Unfortunately, this incorrect definition is proliferated throughout the article.

In my books, Tanford the physical chemistry of macromolecules it mentions proteins are examples of macromolecules, as does Lehninger in his book Biochemistry. The point I tried to make here was to make it clear to readers polymers are macromolecules and vv. But ask a general reader what is a polymer and they invariantly say: plastic, nylon. Not once it comes to thought biological molecules (many of which are macromolecular in nature) are polymers as well. Or using its synonym macromolecule.

Second, I'm not sure that this article presents the reader with "lucid, highly readable introductions written in compelling, narrative prose that really does the job of introducing a topic to people who need one" as per CZ article helpful hints There is a lot of information in this article but there is not much to inform the reader what the field of macromolecular chemistry is all about.

As it is not intended to do. It only tries to interest the reader to delve into follow-up chapters, each already mentioned by the suvdivisions later in the article. The world of polymers and (biological) macromolecules is far too complext to treat in one place and still be readable to and for general public. The deeper the reader delves the more a specialist one needs to be to understand. In my idea nobody needs to know any details of chemistry of physics to understand the top layer. The details as usual are far more complex - but acant and must not be touched in a top layer article, IMHO.

Third, the overemphasis on biological macromolecules seems inconsistent with common usage. The journal Macromolecules, for example, primarily emphasizes synthetic polymers and macromolecules. Discussions of proteins and nucleic acids typically find their ways into biology and biochemistry journals and come with their own set of terminology.

In the labs I worked Gorleaus Laboratory, University of Leiden as well as the free university and the university of amsterdam that distinction never was put in that way and it didnt matter be it biochemistry biophysics, physical chemistry or macromolecular chemistry.

My general suggestion is that we take this article and start to part it out into smaller articles. For example, the Macromolecules and Functions of macromolecules and Biomacromolecules sections could form the basis for a pretty hefty article on macromolecules. The Economics and Environment section could be expanded into an article on plastics. And the section entitled Introduction to Physical Polymer Chemistry seems to describe the discipline of polymer physics. Once this material has been seeded to additional articles, we can either redirect this page to the polymer chemistry page (which needs some work) or build a page from the ground up which describes the field of macromolecular chemistry, including history, professional organizations, and basic concepts along the lines of the flagship chemistry page.

Your thoughts? Jacob Jensen 03:16, 3 April 2007 (CDT)

My thoughts: macromolecular for the more polymeric solutions/fluid materials (as I intended to do) and polymer chemistry for the more (commonly) seen polymers (the hard plastic substances everybody associated with polymers..

The different subchapters were meant to be indicative of deepening articles all with their deepening and more precise and more scientific treatment of the matter. In my opinion - but then who am I, a person of 14 should be able to read it. But someone with knowledge should find a quick roadmap to more detailed info to look up. my 0.02€ on it. Robert Tito |  Talk  18:13, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

I don't think that I'm making myself clear. Here are the points that I'm trying to make.
  1. The fields of macromolecular chemistry and polymer chemistry are the same thing. No external, reputable source makes a clear distinction between the two.

I have presented some evidence above, namely the charter of the prominent (highest impact factor journal Macromolecules. There is also the Wiley-published Journal of Macromolecular Chemistry whose stated aim is to publish "...original research papers in all topical areas of polymer chemistry and physics." [3]

Consider also the IUPAC division IV, referred to as both the MACROMOLECULAR DIVISION[4] and POLYMER DIVISION[5] and responsible for the IUPAC goldbook which recommends treating "macromolecule" and "polymer molecule" as synonyms.

  1. The field of macromolecular chemistry is largely, but not exclusively, concerned with artificial synthetic polymers and their characterization.

Consider for example the contents of the 3-volume work "Macromolecular chemistry" published by the Royal Society, which devotes nearly three quarters of its 400 pages to synthetic organic chemistry and the characterization of synthetic organic polymers [6].

  1. The current article emphasizes biological macromolecules, especially proteins, which represent only a small fraction of active research in macromolecular chemistry.

The work cited above devotes less than 20 pages to proteins and fewer than 50 to naturally occurring polymers. I would also suggest perusing recent copies of prominent journals such as Macromolecules and Journal of Macromolecular Chemistry. In recent issues, the only mention of polypeptides or proteins is a single article on laboratory-synthesized polypeptides. The rest is all synthetic polymers.


Put simply, I think that there is no precedent for separating "macromolecular chemistry" and "polymer chemistry" into two separate articles because the prominent organizations in chemistry (IUPAC, RSC, ACS) agree that they are one and the same. If you can provide sources to the contrary I am happy to be wrong but I think that you are drawing an artificial distinction between the two. Jacob Jensen 22:27, 4 April 2007 (CDT) I try to make science accessible also for pre-graduates. I suggest the same solution as for the other. Robert Tito |  Talk  22:59, 4 April 2007 (CDT) by the way: I did say they are tautologies. Only people do not realize.

I'm still not sure what you are saying. If we are writing to a non-technical audience at any level, our first approach should be to disabuse them of any incorrect notions (such as the synonymity of "plastic" and "polymer") and introduce them to the language that scientists speak. Since no professional chemistry organization sees any difference between "polymer chemistry" and "macromolecular chemistry", it seems counterproductive to generate multiple articles suggesting that there is a difference.
In either event, please have a look at the polymer chemistry page that I have created. Again, my proposal is that the macromolecular chemistry page be redirected to this page and this represents, in my view, a lucid overview of the discipline of polymer chemistry intended for a technical or non-technical audience. Your comments are appreciated. Jacob Jensen 00:01, 5 April 2007 (CDT)

{{civil}}

(I'm flattered by the fact that you seem to have liked my signature, by the way.)

I don't want to discuss the ins and outs of the comment to which you took exception earlier; I was a little heated, but... well, anyway, as I say, let's leave that. I'm a bit surprised, though, that you simply deleted the whole thing, and without letting me know. In so far as you felt that part of my message wasn't civil enough, wouldn't it have better (more civil?) to delete just the offending words, and to let me know that you'd done so? Or even to have asked me to modify the comment myself? Obviously it's done and in the past now, but I'm thinking about other people who might have the same thing happen to them in the future. Is there a constabulary manual of some kind, and might that be added to it? --Peter J. King  Talk  17:02, 7 April 2007 (CDT)

DONE Robert Tito |  Talk 
Rob, you can approve this article all by yourself. See Tux talk page. Stephen Ewen 21:07, 20 April 2007 (CDT)
I know I can, I know you cannot :) you contributed way too much to do that :D Editors who do agree with the approval proposal should however put their names in the approval-tag. Suppose I asked the coppers to do it, they now will have to read ALL of the talk pages to see if it is according to the rules - hey they can use their time better. Two editors allows the third to initiate the approval process - executed by a copper. It would be far easier if two or three editor names appear in the approval tag in stead of being mentioned as a 'side remark'. I will approve the article later today and execute the corresponding hussle of files. cheers. Robert Tito |  Talk  21:16, 20 April 2007 (CDT)

From the Talk:Tux/Gallery conversation it appears you also want some changes to the Template:ToApprove. Or did I misunderstand you? Chris Day (talk) 00:19, 27 April 2007 (CDT)

Chris, yes - it seems logical for en approving editor - to be able to add his/her name to the {toapprove} template to make is easy for others to see how many editors approve of an article. where number 4 finalizes the approval by factually stating: this is a final article. If the template can accomodate a mail to the constables to perform the approval. (I think that wont be possible but hey I can ask :) ) But adding more names would make the approval process more easy to follow. If it can be done it would be a nice addition - I think. Robert Tito |  Talk  00:25, 27 April 2007 (CDT)

I like the idea and I think all that is possible. i'll work on it soon. Chris Day (talk) 01:05, 27 April 2007 (CDT)
Done. Play with the variable and see if that works well for you. E-mail link will be visible when fourth editor approves. Hope it helps Chris Day (talk) 02:42, 27 April 2007 (CDT)

Rob, I have just begun working as Editorial Personnel Administrator (EPA). Starting bottom of Inbox I encountered Dr. van den Broek's app for psychiatry editor. You put the ewelcome template on his User talk page, so I assume you approved him for editor. Did not see editor category on User page or his name in list of CZ editors.

I also tweaked his User page intro.

Please check it (http://en.citizendium.org/wiki/User:Walter_van_den_Broek ) to see if okay.

I saw no welcome email in Sent folder. Should I send such, and ask him to check changes to his User page?

Walter van den Broek

Anthony, I didnot give Walter editor status, as I am 'just' a constable, however due to his profile I invited him to apply asap as editor - and enforced it by the ewelcome :). Walter is a scientist/clinical psychiatrist in Holland and I know of their work. So being editor myself I merely wanted to stimulate him to become one as well. For that reason he (still) has author-ship as category. Thanks for making his editorship final. cheers, Robert Tito |  Talk
