I have returned temporarily to repair/remove "dead" links in a number of articles. In the two years since I was last here, the links have degraded over time and are in need of maintenance. [[User:Meg Ireland|Meg Ireland]] 04:20, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Meg, A group of us are upgrading the Citizendium platform and making plans to keep it operational as a place where articles can be written that probably would not survive very long over in Wikipedia. Your past contributions are well regarded, and I'm wondering if you would consider returning and working in the wiki again.  Best regards.[[User:Pat Palmer|Pat Palmer]] ([[User talk:Pat Palmer|talk]]) 17:18, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
:I'll second that welcome back.  Good to see you again.  [[User:Russell D. Jones|Russell D. Jones]] 13:42, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
 
::Yes, nice to see you catching those typos. [[User:Ro Thorpe|Ro Thorpe]] 14:39, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

== Question ==
I think what you do is very helpful.  However, I cannot see why, under [[Mervyn Peake]], you have removed the entire list of works. Is there some technical reason? --[[User:Martin Wyatt|Martin Wyatt]] 18:09, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
:The list was moved to /Bibliography but I've moved that to /Works. [[User:John Stephenson|John Stephenson]] 19:40, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
::Hello Martin, yes I filed it under Bibliography but Works would have been better. [[User:Meg Ireland|Meg Ireland]] 23:48, 15 September 2013 (UTC)
 
== Regarding [[Matter (disambiguation)]] ==
 
Meg: If we want a reader to reach [[Matter (chemistry)]], which is written from a chemist's perspective, instead of the article [[Matter]], which is written from a physicist's perspective, or to have a choice of either or both, the disambiguation page, [[Matter (disambiguation)]], cannot suffice, as [[Matter]] does not redirect to [[Matter (disambiguation)]]. So, if a reader types the word, Matter, in the Go-to-page search box, he or she will reach the article [[Matter]] written from a physicist's perspective, and not have a choice between that article and the article, [[Matter (chemistry)]].
 
I do not personally know how to solve that problem. Do you have any ideas? I might choose to change the title of the article, [[Matter]], to something like, [[Matter (fundamentals)]], Then create a redirect article, [[Matter]], That redirects to [[Matter (disambiguation)]]. Perhaps you have a simpler solution. [[User:Anthony.Sebastian|Anthony.Sebastian]] 20:54, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
 
:Or rename [[Matter]] to [[Matter (physics)]] and redirect as normal to the disambig page.  [[User:Russell D. Jones|Russell D. Jones]] 21:28, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
::I think Russell's idea is the best solution. Move Matter to Matter (physics). [[User:Meg Ireland|Meg Ireland]] 21:42, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
 
== Double to single quotation marks ==
 
Hi, Meg, just curious to know why you're doing this. Not that it bothers me, as ' doesn't need the shift key, while " does - perhaps that's the reason? [[User:Ro Thorpe|Ro Thorpe]] 14:11, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Meg, might you return to CZ?

Hi Meg, A group of us are upgrading the Citizendium platform and making plans to keep it operational as a place where articles can be written that probably would not survive very long over in Wikipedia. Your past contributions are well regarded, and I'm wondering if you would consider returning and working in the wiki again. Best regards.Pat Palmer (talk) 17:18, 30 September 2020 (UTC)
