Chemicals Discussion

The discussion here concerns all parts of the Chemicals WikiProject, including the infoboxes, lists, standards, includes/excludes, tools, contributors, etc etc etc. Feel free to add your comments to any section here, or start a new topic. Topics not specifically related to the Chemicals WikiProject would be better served at other wikipages.

Actual wikiproject info: statistics and alerts

The worklist shows the actual work to be done to achieve the goals of the Chemicals wikiproject. The choice of important compounds articles to work on has been finalized in an earlier stage of the wikiproject (around mid 2005), and no further articles are added, although we remain open for strong suggestions on this talkpage. The work these days focuses on improving the articles, from Chem Stub all the way to Chem A-Class articles. The table below shows that progress.

The percentage ≥ Chem Start was indicative of the initial effort. Now that we are progressing to more advanced progress, the weighted progress indicator is used, calculated as (Unclass*0 + Stub*1 + Start*2 + B-Class*3 + A-Class*4) / (Articles*4).

should be splitted into Residue (chemistry) and residue (molecular biology) since everything after "In biochemistry and molecular biology, a residue ..." is definitely totally different from the rest!.--141.58.45.38 (talk) 11:59, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You raise an interesting point, but it doesn't really fall within the WP:PHYSICS realm of interest. I would suggest starting a discussion on Talk:Residue (chemistry) and then asking participants in WP:CHEM and WP:BIOLOGY to comment. Personally I agree that the two definitions are essentially separate, but I don't think there is enough out there talking specifically about biochemical/molecular bio residues to warrant its own article - a simple definition would be in violation of WP:DICDEF. It seems, on the other hand, that there is enough material for an article on chemical residues. Corvus coronoides talk 13:08, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There are some questions at Talk:Theaflavin digallate about the chemical structure and ChemBox data in Theaflavin digallate. Input from other chemists would be appreciated. Thank you. -- Ed (Edgar181) 15:27, 9 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Fetish categorizers are at it again

Do we really sanction the creation of so many new highly specialized categories. Example: "removed Category:Acridines; added Category:Quinoacridines" --Smokefoot (talk) 12:38, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This reminds me... Salicylaldehyde was recently added to 'Category:Phenolic compounds found in castoreum', which is itself a sub-subsection of 'Category:Chemical compounds found in castoreum'. I'd of done something about it sooner - expect I saw it on my way to bed and then forgot all about it. Project Osprey (talk) 13:27, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
That's funny, because I notified the Chemistry Project a while ago about these highly specific categories, and no one so much as breathed my way. Plasmic Physics (talk) 14:00, 12 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
