WikiCast[edit]

I hope you don't mind - someone from WikiCast was looking for knowledgable types and i sent him your name. Here is the link to his request^{[broken anchor]}.

~~WikiCast : A Request[edit]~~
Hi, (Sorry if this rambles on)
I am the indvidual that asked for knoweledgeable people on WikiProject Space..
WikiCast is an attempt to do 'free' content net radio with a Wiki Focus. It is very much in Alpha Development. One of the programme ideas for WikiCast was an astronomy/space show called 'Nocturne'.
A possible format would be to have one 'big' topic in the programme, (say black holes), but alongside have a short 'space news' section and have coverage on appropriate recent or expected events.
The audience for this would be essentialy general, but effectivly Wikipedians, so in places stuff could get reasonably technical.

Would you be interested in assiting production of 'Nocturne' for WikiCast? (I've already left a simmilar comment in respect of the other name that was mentioned to me. :-) ) ShakespeareFan00 22:24, 26 August 2006 (UTC) [reply]

Hi, Thanks for the offer. Unfortunately, whilst I have the perfect face for radio, my voice leaves a lot to be desired... Hope the search goes well and the other guy can do it! MilleauRekiir 23:18, 27 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Getting Kendal to featured article status[edit]

I see you've made some edits to Kendal in the past and I was wondering if you would like to try and get the article to featured article status? I've set up a subpage which can be found at Kendal/featured article to create the new page in (I've done this so the Kendal entry doesn't get distrupted whilst all the alterations are made), I've also put some suggsted headers in place (I've had a look at the Weymouth page, as this is featured article status. Let me know if your interested and we'll take it from their, cheers RyanPostlethwaite^{See the mess I've created or let's have banter} 16:06, 19 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Solar Wind answer - thanks[edit]

I have only just noticed your response to my question regarding the formation of helium and metal isotopes in solar wind. Thanks for that. I was not posing the question based on any published theory but rather it was an idea I had while trying to understand how plasma moves around stars. Still, I think someone could learn something from reading it.--ChrisJMoor 02:58, 17 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
