Venturi
Hi, I'm in the middle of cleaning up links to the Venturi disambiguation page. I see that you have included that page in your project. Perhaps, what you wanted was venturi effect or venturi pump? I'm not sure. Could someone please update the link away from the disambiguation page and towards the desired article? Thanks ʍαμ$ʏ5043 16:23, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

Boundary Layer Image
I just uploaded a simple boundary layer schematic that you might consider for inclusion in the boundary layer article. Syguy 19:39, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Pneumatics
Hey there, not sure if this is still active or not but if it is, I reckon Pneumatics should be included within the scope of this project. Pneumatic and Hydrolic power should be put under the same umbrela, theyre both examples of fluid power. Theripper42 (talk) 17:47, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

Notability of TM Tecnomatic?
Hi guys. I've come across an article on TM Tecnomatic which needs a bit of attention - there seems to be at best a WP:COI issue. And I'm not clear on its notability - it seems to have a reasonable representation across Europe, but I'm not sufficiently familiar with the area to judge whether the company deserves its own article on Wikipedia. Hope one of you guys might be familiar with them? FlagSteward (talk) 16:43, 11 June 2008 (UTC)


 * I agree that it looks like self-promotion. I doubt notability can be demonstrated.  I have posted an Advertisement banner on the most blatant promotion.  Dolphin51 (talk) 01:34, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Changes to the WP:1.0 assessment scheme
As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level. The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
 * The new C-Class represents articles that are beyond the basic Start-Class, but which need additional references or cleanup to meet the standards for B-Class.
 * The criteria for B-Class have been tightened up with the addition of a rubric, and are now more in line with the stricter standards already used at some projects.
 * A-Class article reviews will now need more than one person, as described here.

Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at Category:C-Class_articles. If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages. The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles.

Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme. This scheme should allow the team to start producing offline selections for your project and the wider community within the next year. Thanks for using the Wikipedia 1.0 scheme!

Wikipedia 0.7 articles have been selected for Fluid
Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.

We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Release Version Nominations.

A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible.

We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

Taskforce
I noticed that WP Relativity, WP Fluid dynamics and WP Acoustics all have low level of participation, if any. I would propose making them taskforces of WP Physics rather than WikiProjects due to the relatively low number of articles under their wings. I think participation in them would increase if they were made taskforces, as well as make it easier to coordinate efforts. Any thoughts?

I'm also posting this on the relavant WP talk pages. Headbomb {{{sup|ταλκ}}κοντριβς – WP Physics} 22:20, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

AfD for ModeFRONTIER
Based on Google scholar, this software seems to be used in fluid dynamics. The AfD has been relisted due to lack of participants. Some expert input would be welcome. Pcap ping  02:03, 2 December 2008 (UTC)
