Hi Doc

I am glad to see you have an account now. I am looking around for magazine articles or that mention criticize Ullmans work but I got to the library a little to late so this post is just to say hello again and praise your recent edits. : Albion moonlight (talk) 04:52, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

I just wanted to chime in saying I love your user name. -- Atama 20:05, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Thanks. It seemed logical.... If you're an admin can you get me the account EightyEight, I think it hasn't been used for a few years. Cheers! --DrEightyEight (talk) 20:36, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Give MastCell or JzG or Adam Cuerden a try, they are all admins (just off the top of my head). Shot info (talk) 22:41, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Welcome

Welcome, although that seems a little belated given the editing you have already done! Glad to have you aboard and active in, amongst other things, pages related to radio frequency, mobile phones, radiation, health effects, etc. papageno (talk) 19:47, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Bénard cells

You reverted my edit, and replaced it with text that is not supported by sources. Will you please restore it or discuss it on Talk:Bénard cells? —Whig (talk) 09:54, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

The "memory" isn't supported by any of the sources given, and it is only a simple analogy --DrEightyEight (talk) 10:00, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

I noticed you placed a fact tag on the Hysteresis article. That's probably the right thing to have done. I do agree that this all needs to be better sourced. However, if you are satisfied with the language: In very simple terms, a system that exhibits hysteresis has a kind of "memory" shouldn't this be appropriate in the Bénard cells article as well, or changed to inertia in both? —Whig (talk) 10:04, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Do not

... delete comments from talk pages. ≈ jossi ≈ (talk) 22:57, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Even disruptive and unhelpful ones? What did you hope to achieve? --DrEightyEight (talk) 22:59, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Homoepathy article probation notification

You should be aware that Homeopathy and related articles are under probation - Editors making disruptive edits to these pages may be banned by an administrator from homeopathy and related articles or project pages. Editors of such articles should be especially mindful of content policies, such as WP:NPOV, and interaction policies, such as WP:CIVIL, WP:NPA, WP:3RR, and WP:POINT. Editors must be individually notified of article probation before being banned. All resulting blocks and bans shall be logged at Talk:Homeopathy/Article probation#Log of blocks and bans, and may be appealed to the Administrators' noticeboard. —Whig (talk) 23:02, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

I'm obviously already aware of this. Why have you added me to the list? --DrEightyEight (talk)

All editors are required to be notified of this probation before it becomes enforceable upon them. I have been notified although I was aware, and now you have been notified although you were aware. —Whig (talk) 23:13, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
