Hydraulic analogy

 * Work on hydraulic analogy (maybe start with analogy?)
 * Bill Beaty's 'water capacitor' analogy is already present.
 * Alternative model for capacitor analogy.
 * Analogy for EM radiation. (This may not be possible)

Semiconductor and semiconductor device
Merge semiconductor and semiconductor device--Light current 02:39, 27 September 2005 (UTC)
 * currently working on the merger Snafflekid 23:26, 29 September 2005 (UTC)
 * input completed Snafflekid 21:02, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Merge of semiconductor and semiconductor device not desirable/possible. Both pages cleaned up and interlinked instead by User:Snafflekid.--Light current 16:52, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Merge Completed?

I did not merge the articles but made them both pertinent. I think there is no major edits left to make to either article. Snafflekid 18:54, 7 October 2005 (UTC)

Action complete--Light current 20:03, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Electrostatics and static electricity
Merge electrostatics and static electricity — Preceding unsigned comment added by Light current (talk • contribs) 01:29, 30 September 2005 (UTC)

Static electricity content has been copied to electrostatics. Suggestion to redirect from static electricity to electrostatics by Omegatron. Agreed by--Light current 16:52, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Awaiting comments on merge of static electricity|electrostatics — Preceding unsigned comment added by Light current (talk • contribs) 2005

Still waiting! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Light current (talk • contribs) 02:35, 6 November 2005

Transconductance and mutual conductance
Merge transconductance & mutual conductance or redirect?. I created mutual conductance not knowing transconductance existed!--Light current 00:23, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Oops :) I'd suggest a redirect. I think the same info exists in transconductance Snafflekid 02:00, 4 October 2005 (UTC)

I have completed a redirect. Snafflekid 03:22, 17 October 2005 (UTC)

Circuit theory
I added Circuit theory and tossed in some text, but it needs some attention. --Cbdorsett 09:17, 2 January 2007 (UTC) Now redirects to Network analysis (electrical circuits). To be archived.  Spinning Spark  14:01, 22 September 2013 (UTC)

Chebyshev filter
Tightened up Chebyshev filter article--Light current 18:32, 1 October 2005 (UTC)

Butterworth filter
Tightened up Butterworth filter article.--Light current 20:00, 8 October 2005 (UTC)

Conflict over content between Pfalstad and me --Light current 23:17, 8 October 2005 (UTC). Discussion on content continuing.--Light current 02:38, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Conflict settled. LC conceded. First and second order Butts will be included.--Light current 14:19, 10 October 2005 (UTC)


 * ...with an explanation of the similarities. — Omegatron 15:02, 10 October 2005 (UTC)

Ivor Catt
Article created. Still more material to be added, but article can stand as it is at present.--Light current 13:04, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

I think its complete enough to be let out into the wild now!--Light current 04:06, 28 December 2005 (UTC)

Raised-cosine filter
Article created. Could anyone take a look to see if I've pitched it at the right level? Oli Filth 16:42, 3 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I think its about right. You cant get a simple explanation of this sort of thing--Light current 22:06, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Power factor correction
Major edit of Power factor correction Snafflekid 20:12, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

Nominal impedance
Done a fair amount of hacking and bashing to get this page into shape. Can other Project members please comment on what ive done so far?--Light current 22:03, 7 November 2005 (UTC)

Complete AFAIC. No adverse comments will be taken to mean acceptance--Light current 23:49, 14 November 2005 (UTC)


 * I did a major rework and expansion of this article some time ago. It is now much better referenced, some dubious/incorrect information has been filtered out, and the article is now more comprehensive.  As this was done in 2009 and the article has now achieved GA status, marking as resolved for archiving.  Spinning  Spark  09:57, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

LC circuit, RLC circuit into tuned circuit
Merge LC circuit, RLC circuit with new tuned circuit page--Light current 18:32, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * But RLC circuit is so long already. Pfalstad 05:04, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

RLC circuit appears to have all the attributes of a good page on tuned circuits. So propose renaming RLC circuits to tuned circuit or removing requirement for new page content. Maybe a redirect from tuned circuit to RLC circuit.

Tuned Circuit Page created with immediate redirect to RLC circuit

Task complete--Light current 07:16, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Transistor
1.Cleanup and slim down Transistor page --- Completed?--Light current 07:30, 9 October 2005 (UTC)


 * cleanup in process Snafflekid 07:45, 4 October 2005 (UTC)
 * done with cleanup for now, I'm not sure if the Gallery section is pertinent. Comments? Snafflekid 01:36, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
 * Gallery cleaned up by Mako, article looks complete to me. Even good enough for featured article. Snafflekid 18:58, 7 October 2005 (UTC)
 * I added a very brief history section, regarding the naming of the transistor and added a disambigulation link to semiconductor device#history. What do people think?
 * Though the article describes transistors, dont you think that it needs a little help on the working?
 * My opinion is that this page should have a basic explaination of operation, and direct to other articles for detailed explanation. I already once put too much info here before discovering other pages. Snafflekid 20:59, 20 October 2005 (UTC)

Capacitor
Split capacitor into theoretical page and page with information on practical capacitors. Reason: page now very large.--Light current 04:13, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Yes, it is. But what to call the separate pages? Pfalstad 05:04, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Page name suggestions:

Capacitor & Practical capacitors,

or Capacitor & Capacitor types--Light current 07:22, 9 October 2005 (UTC)

Copied the practical information to new page called practical capacitors --Light current 03:16, 15 October 2005 (UTC)


 * The practical capacitors page seems to have evolved into capacitor types Types of capacitor in the intervening years. Marking as stale and for archiving.  Spinning  Spark  10:22, 25 October 2013 (UTC)

Practical capacitors and electrolytic capacitor
Merge practical capacitors with electrolytic capacitor. Reason- electrolytics are just another sort of capacitor and would fit in to practical capacitors very well. Posted merge tags on both pages.--Light current 12:59, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

Copied electrolytic capacitor stuff here ready for completion of merge if noone objects.--Light current 23:08, 1 November 2005 (UTC)


 * Practical capacitors has now evolved into capacitor types Types of capacitor. Don't agree with this merge suggestion, electrolytic capacitor is fine as a stand alone article with a summary at capacitor types.  Spinning  Spark  10:24, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
