Dowd

Hi. I'm not sure Dowd belongs, as the reference is to existing engineers. --Epeefleche 03:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Sorry, Epeefleche, I hadn't gathered from context that the list was to be only existing engineers. Since this is an encyclopedic entry and not a job listing, I don't see a problem with including those who've passed away.

I split the list off to its own heading and added some more famous engineers. Binksternet 06:11, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

It referred to notable engineers. Dead people are no longer engineers; hence the reference was to existing engineers. Nothing to do with a job listing -- if I'm not an engineer, and am not on the list, if that is what you are suggesting. It looks cumbersome to me the way that it is presented, but if no one else objects I won't.--Epeefleche 06:21, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
I would suggest deleting the redlinked ones, or creating articles, as if they do not have Wiki articles they are not of note.--Epeefleche 09:39, 6 August 2007 (UTC)
Redlinks are just Wiki articles that haven't yet been written.  ;^)-- Binksternet
Often because the person is not notable. If a non-notable article is written, it is speedily deleted, resulting in a red link as well. Unless someone plans to write articles that pass the speedy delete test in the near future, I would delete the red links as lacking indicia of notability.

Am moving this to audio engineering talk page as it may interest others.--Epeefleche 17:54, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Audio restoration

Nice job working on Audio restoration. I had cut out some spammy stuff, but simply didn't have the knowledge to bring it up to quality standards. It is one thing to 'understand' the process in general, and quite another to have the level of expertise needed to add some really good content. You additions breathed some new life into the article, and I just wanted to say thanks. Pharmboy 01:00, 14 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the 'thank you'... ;^) Binksternet 11:10, 14 August 2007 (UTC)
