Image(s)

Hi. We appreciate very much your contributions to the Citizendium. I was hoping you could help clear up a matter about the images you recently uploaded. They are lacking clear copyright and source data and need to have it as soon as practicable to avoid deletion. To fix the problem, please review the images you uploaded (click on "my contributions" at the upper-right to re-trace your steps or see the links I added) in light of Images Help—Copyrights. If you need additional help, just ask a constable or leave a message on my talk page and I'll be more than glad to assist. —Stephen Ewen 20:43, 22 April 2007 (CDT)

OK

OK David, I will look at your ideal gas law. I must add that I'm very glad that there is another scientist active in CZ. I was afraid I was the only one (outside biology, that is).

I see that you worked at Duke. I spent a year there. Long time ago in the Chemistry department (with Donald Chesnut). I have very good memories of that year, I really liked living and working in the US. --Paul Wormer 03:15, 4 October 2007 (CDT)

ToApprove

Hi David, i made the following edit on your behalf to kick off the ToApprove process on the Van_der_Waals_equation article. I hope that is OK Chris Day (talk) 15:02, 4 October 2007 (CDT)

David, I was getting ready to do the approval on Van der Waals equation when I noticed ther ehave been several more edits since your approval date. As it is, I can only approve the date that is in the green box, so I will wait till later tonight to approve. If you want to include these edits, just change the date and version in the box. If not, you don't have to do anything and I will approve the version that you have marked. Thanks.. Matt Innis (Talk) 18:30, 8 October 2007 (CDT)

Congratulations on your first Approval! I did change the date for you and approved the extra edits as you stated on my talk page. When you want to find the latest version, follow these steps: 1)click on the history tab, 2)click on 'compare selected version...' button, 3)click on the 'Revision as of [date]' above the previous diff, 4)click on 'newer revision' under the article title, 5)copy the address from the address bar.. and you got it! It is a long way around. If you ever find a better way, do let me know! Matt Innis (Talk) 18:57, 9 October 2007 (CDT)

NMR article?

Hi David, I read on your bio that NMR seems to be a topic which you are familiar with. So, I was wondering if perhaps you may have plans on writing an article on Nuclear magnetic resonance in the future. Anyway, I guess the reason I'm asking is that an article I started on open loop control links to that :-) Just a thought. Thanks. Hendra I. Nurdin 16:28, 6 October 2007 (CDT)

Hi David, I saw your message on my talkpage and totally understand what you're saying. There are also plenty of articles I would like to write, but unfortunately I am unable to find the time to do the research and retrieve the necessary books and papers. So far, I've mostly written about things which I know quite well or have often used in my work and thus can be called off the top of my head or from notes I've made. CZ has yet to reach critical mass :-) Hendra I. Nurdin 16:06, 8 October 2007 (CDT)
