CZ Talk:Chemistry Workgroup

Analytical Chemistry is often referred to by students as "General Chemistry on Steroids". But then again, Inorganic Chemistry is the study of the rest of the periodic table other than primarily carbon-based molecules.

My question is this: Should General Chemistry considered a subgroup of chemistry or just foundational vocabulary and concepts of the other sub-groups? --William Weaver 08:37, 22 November 2006 (CST)

In many instances you see Analytical Chemistry and Anorganic Chemistry put together and abbreviated to AA-Chemistry. To call it general chemistry would be one bridge too far even though the argument seems logical. How do the others feel about it? Robert Tito 19:09, 1 February 2007 (CST)

Chemistry Related Wikipedia Templates

Should we duplicate the templates for physical properties and what not from the Wikipedia (such as the NIOSH diamonds and other assorted goodies) and use them here? or are we going to use a new template set? --Paul Derry 00:14, 15 February 2007 (CST)

I have added proposed follow up documents on the Talk:Physical chemistry page, see there and add or modify please. Robert Tito | Talk 17:15, 20 February 2007 (CST)

To be approved articles

Please contribute there and add, else we have pages definitive without your approval Robert Tito | Talk 17:16, 20 February 2007 (CST)

Live articles/to be approved articles

Please give your attention to all the live articles and lets try to finish them to a tobeapproved status ASAP and get more articles approved. Thanks,

Workgroups are no longer used for group communications, but they still are used to group articles into fields of interest. Each article is assigned to 1-3 Workgroups via the article's Metadata.

These articles (or new versions of them) have been nominated for approval, with the oversight of the Chemistry Workgroup. If you are an editor in this workgroup, please check to see that these article versions are indeed worthy of approval. Editors who are experts on the topic of an article are permitted to revoke the approval made by someone else, by simply removing the "ToApprove" template. Authors, and non-expert editors (i.e., in other fields), are not permitted to do this.Robert Tito | Talk 11:32, 27 February 2007 (CST)

Chemical Elements

There aren't too many articles yet on the various chemical elements that we all know and love. I believe that we need to start fleshing out that area, once those articles are written their various compounds could then receive some degree of focus.

If we all took an element then the process won't take too terribly long. Even if the article is fairly short it's better than nothing and can be ammended to later on. A category such as Incomplete Articles/Chemistry would organize those articles.

Just a thought, this group seems to be kind of quiet. --Paul Derry 12:12, 7 March 2007 (CST) The main page isn't even approved yet, lets focus on priorities such as these pages first. Elements is something as a detail of chemistry when we have the framework done. When we do the term Elements will be part of an article, and from elements we can elaborate on each and every element - but knowledge of elements does not show what chemistry is about. I would prefer priority set on the main stary, details later. Robert Tito | Talk 12:29, 7 March 2007 (CST)
