Waiting for a reply!

Peter, we are waiting for a reply at, http://forum.citizendium.org/index.php/topic,4237.0.html Please do the needful.-Ramanand Jhingade 17:10, 10 January 2012 (UTC)

This has to be decided by the EC (see EC:2012-005). --Peter Schmitt 01:30, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Randomized controlled trial

How do we finish the approval of Randomized controlled trial? Also, how do we make the approval process more intuitive? Thanks - Robert Badgett 04:44, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Robert, we have an "approvals manager" whose task it is to finish the approval. You can ask him about it here. David Finn 07:47, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

The EC is aware of this issue and will deal with it. --Peter Schmitt 23:56, 26 January 2012 (UTC)

Still having trouble nominating Boiling point/Draft

Somthing different about the metadata page. Will you look at it, and please advise. Thanks. —14:47, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

Re-approval of Boiling point/Draft is still in limbo

Peter, please read Matt's talk page to see why the re-approval of Boiling point/Draft has still not yet been implemented. I think your direction (or at least a comment) is needed to get this done. Milton Beychok 21:21, 6 March 2012 (UTC)

Travelling

I am travelling right now (for 1-2 weeks) and do not know when (or whether) I'll be online during this period. --Peter Schmitt 11:12, 12 March 2012 (UTC)

Re failed Approval

Peter, thanks for showing me how to fix the Approval template for a dropped case. Anthony.Sebastian 01:58, 30 March 2012 (UTC)

Revision date update for Cypherpunk/Draft

Peter, you recently updated the version to the version dated 07:50, 22 March 2012, but I do not find such version. What am I missing?  Anthony.Sebastian 20:31, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

It is the latest version. You yourself put it into the Metadata but forgot to change the date of the version. (The Approval Manager chooses the version to approve.) --Peter Schmitt 22:52, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Peter, when I view the latest version of Cypherpunk/Draft and ask for a permanent link, I get:

Revision as of 23:50, 21 March 2012 by Sandy Harris (Talk | contribs)

When I view the revision history of the latest version, I get:

On the metadata page, in the “Required for the ToApprove template” section, I see:

article url = http://en.citizendium.org/wiki?title=Cypherpunk/Draft&oldid=100798547

now = 07:50, 22 March 2012

However, I interpret “now= “ as requiring 23:50, 21 March 2012

So. I still can’t justify “now= 07:50, 22 March 2012” as applicable.

What am I missing? Anthony.Sebastian 14:29, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

CZ time is UTC, as produced by the automatically generated signatures. Compare this timestamp (15:22, 1 April 2012 (UTC)) with the date/time displayed in history listings. Have you set a local time in your preferences? Then history listings show your local time (instead of CZ time) and differs from the timestamp of your signature. --Peter Schmitt 15:22, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Thanks, Peter. I have now changed my settings and date corresponds with yours. Anthony.Sebastian 20:47, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

More crypto articles

Things like RSA algorithm and Diffie-Hellman are near the border between crypto and math, and discrete logarithm is almost entirely math. I think they are reasonable from a crypto point of view, but I wonder how they look to a mathematician. Sandy Harris 05:27, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
