Thanks for the cleanup work on the [[Galileo]] article. But one thing confuses me: the Topic Informant workgroup seems to apply to living people (or, I'd presume, the more or less recently deceased). Is there a reason for applying it to Galileo? I'm a newbie here myself and not eager to make waves; just trying to figure it all out. [[User:Daniel Drake|Daniel Drake]] 03:17, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

Daniel, David, the Topic Informant Workgroup is to be placed only on living or recently deceased people, and some other articles--obviously not historical figures.  Please do not add [[:Category:Topic Informant Workgroup]] to any more articles until you have reviewed the relevant rules.  Consider this a warning: the category is clearly enough specified that to place it on an article about a historical figure looks like a bad faith edit. --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 11:31, 6 April 2007 (CDT)

Topic informant

Thanks for the cleanup work on the Galileo article. But one thing confuses me: the Topic Informant workgroup seems to apply to living people (or, I'd presume, the more or less recently deceased). Is there a reason for applying it to Galileo? I'm a newbie here myself and not eager to make waves; just trying to figure it all out. Daniel Drake 03:17, 4 April 2007 (CDT)

Daniel, David, the Topic Informant Workgroup is to be placed only on living or recently deceased people, and some other articles--obviously not historical figures. Please do not add Category:Topic Informant Workgroup to any more articles until you have reviewed the relevant rules. Consider this a warning: the category is clearly enough specified that to place it on an article about a historical figure looks like a bad faith edit. --Larry Sanger 11:31, 6 April 2007 (CDT)
