I hope you would pleased helping to improve it. I put some questions and issues to the talk page. Thank you in advance. Beagel 17:43, 31 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, you seems to be the only oil shale expert beside of Alain Burnham who has contributed to the oil shale article. I wondered if you might like to review this article and check once more the information concerning oil shale extraction technologies. There is also discussion how to split this article. If you have time perhaps you would like to take a look? regards. Beagel 21:32, 18 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I listed Oil shale for the new peer review and related spin-off articles (Oil shale extraction, Oil shale geology, Oil shale industry, History of the oil shale industry, Oil shale reserves, Oil shale economics, and Environmental effects of oil shale industry) for the peer review. Your comments and edits will be most welcome.Beagel 17:21, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Awarded for contributions to the oil shale topics. Beagel 14:14, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your assistance improving the Oil shale article to the GA level. Of course the work continues and I hope that you will be able to continue to contribute also for FAC nomination and improving other oil shale related articles. I think the next GAC could be the Oil shale geology and the Oil shale extraction. Beagel 14:14, 21 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oil shale extraction[edit]

The article "Oil shale extraction" needs to be reviewed by expert, particularly concerning verification of factual accuracy of description of technologies, and use of terminology. I appreciate highly if you could check this article. Thank you in advance. Beagel 16:29, 3 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
