I don't understand your "most specific principle" in moving categories around in the Sciences. If I click on Science from the main page, I would expect to find Astronomy or Physics, and won't even think to look in "Natural Sciences". I hope you will rectify this. The purpose of categories is to help users find things, there is no absolute truth here. dml 2 July 2005 13:16 (UTC)
- See Wikipedia:Categorization, and do a search for Queen Elizabeth; it's in that paragraph. That's where I got this principle from, and assumed that that was what people wanted done.
- Part of the problem to my mind is that when I say Science, I'm thinking of theoretical natural science (where applied natural science is to me engineering, and I call Social Science "Human Systems", but I think I'm the only one to do so). So in that respect, I agree with you. However, I based all my recategorisation on the following presuppositions:
- * Most Specific Category principle
- * That the blurb at the top of the Science category was correct (ie. we're dividing between Natural and Social sciences)
- I'm happy to discuss those presuppositions, though. Maybe a solution would be to extend the discussion of Natural and Social sciences at the top of the page, saying something like "Natural sciences such as physics, chemistry, biology, and astronomy..... Social sciences such as economics, politics, psychology, sociology, and anthropology.....". Would that work for you? TimNelson 9 July 2005 11:38 (UTC)
- Yes, I put it in the header of the category page. I still think the category:natural sciences should be deprecated, as should category:physical sciences in favor of a larger and better category:science dml 12:00, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

Pearle for Wikiversity
Hi. Is there any chance we could get Pearle to run for Wikiversity too? I put a request in on v:Wikiversity:Request_custodian_action, but no-one there seems to be capable of doing this.

- Anyone is free to copy the source code and make a clone under their own control. Personally, I don't have enough free time to expand the scope of the original bot's operations. Much of Pearle's functionality involves refiling things tagged for cleanup. Taking a look around Wikiversity, it seems like there's Category:Pages needing cleanup after Import, and not much else, so maybe it's not all that necessary yet. Though perhaps the category-moving code would be useful even on such a young project.
- I also got your e-mail about Pearle code improvements. Probably good suggestions, but I don't really have time to start playing with code that is working OK for now. -- Beland 04:38, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
Casual chic
Request noted, but does it mean anything other that "smart casual"? Any ideas or suggestions? IXIA 22:03, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
