Affordance

Hi Forlornturtle, just a note of thanks for your work on affordance, both straightening it out and policing it afterwards. Cheers -- --Lockley 14:05, 5 April 2007 (UTC)

Forlornturtle: Willing to help with some Wikipedia-related research?

Hi! I'm a first-year PhD student working on a system to help improve the quality of Wikipedia articles on scientific topics by providing easier access to relevant scientific publications. I was hoping to speak with some editors who work on scientific articles in order to solicit requirements for my system in order to better satisfy the needs of the Wikipedia community. I noticed that you have been a caretaker for a number of pages on topics concerning HCI and statistics, and I would really appreciate your input. If you are interested, please let me know on my talk page (talk). Thanks! —Preceding undated comment added 23:15, 27 May 2011 (UTC).
