Make yourself comfortable, we have work to discuss

Welcome to the Engineers Site Office. This is where engineers gather and check in when they have project tasks to organise and carry out.

This page is to discuss anything related to WikiProject Engineering

and Issues of going concern

More articles or pages in need of attention could be found here at Category:Unreferenced Engineering articles and Category:Engineering articles needing attention.


This is a notice to let you know about Article alerts, a fully-automated subscription-based news delivery system designed to notify WikiProjects and Taskforces when articles are entering Articles for deletion, Requests for comment, Peer review and other workflows (full list). The reports are updated on a daily basis, and provide brief summaries of what happened, with relevant links to discussion or results when possible. A certain degree of customization is available; WikiProjects and Taskforces can choose which workflows to include, have individual reports generated for each workflow, have deletion discussion transcluded on the reports, and so on. An example of a customized report can be found here.

If you are already subscribed to Article Alerts, it is now easier to report bugs and request new features. We are also in the process of implementing a "news system", which would let projects know about ongoing discussions on a wikipedia-wide level, and other things of interest. The developers also note that some subscribing WikiProjects and Taskforces use the display=none parameter, but forget to give a link to their alert page. Your alert page should be located at "Wikipedia:PROJECT-OR-TASKFORCE-HOMEPAGE/Article alerts". Questions and feedback should be left at Wikipedia talk:Article alerts.

Hi, there. I am an machine engineer and contributed to translate above mentioned article from hr.wiki (where I am admin) to English language. Now somebody is saying that article is not good enuough for wikipedia, I do not know where these claims are coming from. Can anybody competent (with technical knowledge) check the article and give his opinion about should it be deleted or not. Regards --Lasta 06:38, 23 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Can someone explain this?

Can someone answer my question at Talk:Passivity (engineering)? Thank you. Michael Hardy (talk) 12:44, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Geodetic engineering

I am a bit surprised, there is no article relating geodetic engineering here. In the Philippines, there is an undergraduate (and graduate) degree program called geodetic engineering. It precisely deals with the science of earth measurements (as in plane and geodetic, astronomic, etc. surveying), to digital and manual cartography, remote sensing, GPS and GIS systems, photogrammetry, etc. If there is no really geodetic engineering in other countries, what is the nearest engineering discipline that comes in after geodetic engineering? I am asking this because I have difficulties on where to link geodetic engineering. Thanks.--JL 09Talk to me! 14:30, 10 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen Geomatics engineering being used at at least one university here in the US Jfraser (talk) 20:01, 25 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There is a naming dispute considering the correct name for the category for the main article Markov chain and related articles, see WP:CFD. 76.66.192.144 (talk) 03:21, 28 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
