IC Wikisoc! edit

Dear Kylemcinnes, my name is Vinesh Patel, a 5th Year medic at Imperial. I'm trying to start an Imperial College Wikipedia society, presenting to the union by the end of the month. Would you be interested?

I got your username from the Category: Wikipedians by alma mater: Imperial College London page.

Here is a link demonstrating my work so far: http://www2.imperial.ac.uk/blog/reporter/2011/01/21/wikipedia-society/

My team and I want to get people working in groups for edits. Non-academic and academic edits would be great to work on in groups – an IC Wikipedia soc would be cool! This has already been achieved in the States but we would be the first student society in the UK. http://outreach.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_student_clubs. We are also pursuing lots of other things – research into Wikipedia use, GLAM wiki stuff with local museums, using Wikipedia in teaching.

Whether you are a current student or alumnus, I think it would be great to get a community linked together from Imperial, which can give so much to the world’s free information because of the knowledge base here – and have fun doing it!

Myself and 6 other students are holding events at South Kensington campus Wed 9th and 16th; please get in touch at my talk page or e-mail to get into the movement in whatever capacity you can – you would be most welcome.Vinnypatel (talk) 01:57, 4 February 2011 (UTC)Reply

ų (mu) is the common symbol for coefficient of friction. However this would normally be written as ų=0.35, not as 0.35ų - ų isn't a unit as such. Accordingly I'd agree with your removal here, but it is understandable why they cam to be there. Andy Dingley (talk) 01:46, 7 February 2012 (UTC)Reply

Quadratic equation edit

The whole point of having px on the other side was how the problem was formulated. They didn't like negative numbers and found it easier to state problems with one set of quantities adding up to equal another set. Dmcq (talk) 11:34, 22 April 2012 (UTC)Reply
