Hi, you replaced the more general cat "Bibliographic databases" with the more specific on "Bibliographic databases in computer science" in . However, as far as I can see, CiteSeer covered much more than just computer science. As the more specific cat is included in the more general cat, it would seem to me that it does not need to be included in the specific one. Otherwise, each and every general database should be included in the category "Bibliographic databases in computer science", too. --] (]) 17:46, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

: "Citeseerx is a scientific literature digital library and search engine that focuses primarily on the literature in computer and information science." (http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/about/site) —'']'' 17:55, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
:*But it is the article on ], not ] that I am talking about. That one starts with saying that "CiteSeer was a public search engine and digital library for scientific and academic papers." (Implying that even social sciences and/or humanities were included). Is that incorrect? if so, it should be corrected. --] (]) 18:00, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
::: I used Citeseer and use CiteSeer</sup>X</sup> regularly and haven't seen them indexing anything beyond computer and information science, so our article would be incorrect. —'']'' 18:03, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

::*Ah, I just see that CSX redirects to CS. If CS was broader than CSX, perhaps both cats should remain and I was too hasty to remove the specific cat. The article is not very clear, though, because even the section on CSX talk all the time about "scientific and academic" papers. Computer science belongs in the sciences, not humanities/social sciences, so it would be clearer if that were specified and "academic" deleted throughout. --] (]) 18:06, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

==MSU Interview==

Dear Ruud Koot,

My name is Jonathan Obar ], I'm a professor in the College of Communication Arts and Sciences at Michigan State University and a Teaching Fellow with the Wikimedia Foundation's Education Program. This semester I've been running a little experiment at MSU, a class where we teach students about becoming Misplaced Pages administrators. Not a lot is known about your community, and our students (who are fascinated by wiki-culture by the way!) want to learn how you do what you do, and why you do it. A while back I proposed this idea (the class) to the community ], where it was met mainly with positive feedback. Anyhow, I'd like my students to speak with a few administrators to get a sense of admin experiences, training, motivations, likes, dislikes, etc. We were wondering if you'd be interested in speaking with one of our students.


So a few things about the interviews:
* Interviews will last between 15 and 30 minutes.
* Interviews can be conducted over skype (preferred), IRC or email. (You choose the form of communication based upon your comfort level, time, etc.)
* All interviews will be completely anonymous, meaning that you (real name and/or pseudonym) will never be identified in any of our materials, unless you give the interviewer permission to do so.
* All interviews will be completely voluntary. You are under no obligation to say yes to an interview, and can say no and stop or leave the interview at any time.
* The entire interview process is being overseen by MSU's institutional review board (ethics review). This means that all questions have been approved by the university and all students have been trained how to conduct interviews ethically and properly.


Bottom line is that we really need your help, and would really appreciate the opportunity to speak with you. If interested, please send me an email at obar@msu.edu (to maintain anonymity) and I will add your name to my offline contact list. If you feel comfortable doing so, you can post your name ] instead.

If you have questions or concerns at any time, feel free to email me at obar@msu.edu. I will be more than happy to speak with you.

Thanks in advance for your help. We have a lot to learn from you.


Sincerely,



Jonathan Obar --] (]) 07:26, 12 February 2012 (UTC)

==Removing Speedy at ]==
Hi Ruud Koot, you recently removed a deletion tag from ]. Because Misplaced Pages policy ] the creator of the page to remove speedy deletion tags, an ] has replaced the tag. Although the deletion proposal may be incorrect, removing the tag is not the correct way for you to contest the deletion, even if you are more experienced than the nominator. Instead, please use the talk page to explain why the page should not be deleted. Remember to be patient, there is no harm in waiting for another experienced user to review the deletion and judge what the right course of action is. As you are involved, and therefore potentially biased, you should refrain from doing this yourself. Thank you, - ] (]) 17:25, 15 February 2012 (UTC)

== WP:COMPSCI direction ==

Hi, I would like to discuss with you where you see WP:COMPSCI going. I think I should understand this before contributing in this area. Feel free to reply here or on my talk page. Thanks, ] (]) 12:36, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

: If you are referring to the restructuring proposals. I'd like to reduce the number of computing-related WikiProjects to approxiately two. WikiProject Computer science focussing on computer science in its broadest academic sense, including many aspects of computer programming, and WikiProject Computing on all practical aspects of computing (including e.g. everything currently covered by WikiProject Software). —'']'' 13:00, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

::OK in general what do you think needs to be done next? As you know Misplaced Pages is always a work in progress. I'm assessing a lot of articles and I hope we can agree on some guidelines to deal with the current situation, which I expect will continue for some time.

::I also have a specific concern, which is I don't think that maths subjects with applications to CS should be tagged WP:COMPSCI, that would be like tagging Calculus as part of Physics. Thanks, ] (]) 13:47, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

::: Apart from the issue with WikiProject Databases, I'm not really sure you mean with "the current situation"? What should be done next? Write more articles and tag the current ones, I guess?
::: Regarding mathematical articles, for articles concerning "basic" mathematics like arithmetic or group theory, I would agree these should not be tagged with WP:COMPSCI. For more specialist articles in logic and discrete mathematics, I'd say these should be tagged with WP:COMPSCI as well. Many of those are primarily of interest to computer scientist (e.g. ]) or at least use papers from computer science journals as their references (e.g. ]) . —'']'' 17:38, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

As far as I can tell every article tagged WPDATABASE is included in WP:COMPSCI. I don't think this is a good idea. What can be done about this? ] (]) 23:13, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

: As discussed at ], we would have to implement one of the proposals at ]. This would require assessing/retagging ~600 articles (more without the assistance of a bot). I think ] preferred Option 1, listed there. You might want to discuss this with him. —'']'' 23:26, 27 February 2012 (UTC)
: Oh, and we still haven't figured out what to do with all the articles like ], which would probably need to be sorted out first too. —'']'' 23:28, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

== Oh well ... ==

Apparently you do not value my participation. ] (]) 09:36, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

Let me try this again. Apparently you are trying to enforce a hard limit of 100 Top-importance CS articles. I have a couple objections. First, I was not done sorting through the articles, I was going to add candidates first and then prune down. Second, if you will please note there are several articles from WPDATABASE in this category e.g. ], not all of which belong here, which is the issue I raised with you above.

I'm sure you find me annoying, but we are going to need to communicate if I'm going to work in this area. If you feel that is too much trouble, then of course I will find something else to work on. ] (]) 09:53, 28 February 2012 (UTC)
