I missed this the first time because I usually look at all the changes at the same time.. then I saw that you [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Talk:Homeopathy/Draft&diff=next&oldid=100514192 deleted something].. did you mean to do that?  I was going to respond, but thought maybe you changed your mind or something. [[User:D. Matt Innis|D. Matt Innis]] 23:48, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:Didn't mean to delete; now trying to figure out how to restore it. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 23:57, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Do you like Ike? ==
 
How do you feel about the [[Dwight D. Eisenhower]] article from a military standpoint?  Is it ready for approval? If so, could you nominate it?  Then I'll get some people from other applicable workgroups to join in. --[[User:Joe Quick|Joe Quick]] 16:33, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:It's not ready. The WWII is better than Cold War; the Cold War has a lot of ideological baggage. It's fixable, but I need references and I'd like to get some Afghanistan things in better order -- to say nothing of some Vietnam material that's long been close to approval. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 16:38, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== RIM-2 Terrier ==
 
I have made a copy of your article in [[User:Drew R. Smith/RIM-2 Terrier|my draft space]], with the minor modification of using the convert template instead of writing out the conversion. I have set the values to display what you had written, however if you want a more precise conversion simply change <nowiki>{{convert|12|km|feet|</nowiki>'''-4'''<nowiki>}} to display as {{convert|12|km|feet|</nowiki>'''2'''<nowiki>}}</nowiki> and it will display out to the second decimal.
 
If you like it this way, simply copy the draft into the article space. I have not touched anything other than the conversions.[[User:Drew R. Smith|Drew R. Smith]] 20:26, 16 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== DNS ==
 
Hi, Howard, did you see my last remark? [[User:Peter Schmitt|Peter Schmitt]] 14:32, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
: Oh, I should have guessed this ... [[User:Peter Schmitt|Peter Schmitt]] 14:51, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Howard, we need some feedback ==
 
Howard, please look at [http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,2730.0.html This thread in the forums]. We need some feedback in that thread. [[User:Milton Beychok|Milton Beychok]] 06:37, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Air Force ==
 
Howard, [[Air Force]] is in state of moving, did you forget it?--[[User:Paul Wormer|Paul Wormer]] 15:20, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Dutch air force ==
 
"Koninklijke Luchtmacht nu‎" means literally "Royal Air Force now" (''nu'' = now). Why do you have the now? --[[User:Paul Wormer|Paul Wormer]] 15:39, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
:Because I don't speak Dutch and that's the translation given by my reference! We should, by all means, change it. [[User:Howard C. Berkowitz|Howard C. Berkowitz]] 15:43, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Kop or sysop needed to format AOTW ==
 
Hi Howard, can you please apply [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=User%3ADaniel_Mietchen%2FSandbox%2FAOTW&diff=100516542&oldid=100516520 these changes] to [[Ancient Celtic music]] and then set back [[CZ:Article of the Week]] to [http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=CZ:Article_of_the_Week&oldid=100516490 this version]? Thanks! --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 20:53, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
:Note that the second paragraph had a "<" removed, and the third one a " " added before the final onlyinclude. --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 20:56, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
::One more thing: This transcluded version starts with the article title, but this would not be needed in the approved page, as it already has that title. --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 21:04, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
:::Now changed it such that you can simply copy the whole [[User:Daniel_Mietchen/Sandbox/AOTW]] into [[Ancient Celtic music]]. --[[User:Daniel Mietchen|Daniel Mietchen]] 22:44, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Underground ==
 
'subway' is the American term, it sees a little usage here too but 'underground' or 'metro' is more common, mainly because 'subway' over here refers to a pedestrian underpass. 'Metro' is the best general term I think, mainly because it's used worldwide and it doesn't restrict to systems with underground running. I put [[District Line]] in the Engineering workgroup, there needs to be a transport one though! [[User:Tom F Walker|Tom F Walker]] 21:42, 25 June 2009 (UTC)
 
== Internet protocol ==
 
Howard, you are answering so quickly that I suspect that you did not notice
that a few days ago I put two questions/remarks on [[Talk:Internet Protocol]].
Furthermore, you should check if my edits are ok. [[User:Peter Schmitt|Peter Schmitt]] 00:35, 27 June 2009 (UTC)

If you have something to say to me, feel free to email. If it relates to an article, I certainly will respond appropriately on article talk pages, and recommend Workgroup or Subgroup talk pages for content issues. Howard C. Berkowitz 00:56, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
