Comment
editWhy was this talk page deleted? Here's what the deletion log says:
19:49, 1 June 2008 Wizardman (Talk | contribs) deleted "Talk:List of environmental websites" (content was: '==Hidden comment about annotation== I have added the following text as a hidden comment on the article page.
In each annotation, the first part tel...' and the only contributor was Wavelength)
My guess is that the Admin decided to delete this article. I disagree and will be filing a deletion review. Can someone point me to the AfD? ImpIn | (t - c) 03:18, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- See box above. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 06:54, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- Considering that Wavelength improved the list beyond just a category, do you change your mind about the article? If not, will you explain? ImpIn | (t - c) 07:16, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
- As it now stands it does add what a category cannot i.e. annotation and the splitting into the sections. I will not be challenging the recreation of the article. -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:53, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
Deletion review
editI have listed this page at deletion review (entry). ImpIn | (t - c) 00:24, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
Entries withheld
editI prepared these two entries for addition under a new heading "Meteorology" but I have withheld them from the list because maybe they do not qualify as environmental websites but rather as environmental topics with associated websites. Nevertheless, I am placing them here as topics of interest.
- BUFR (Binary Universal Form for the Representation of meteorological data) -- a data format maintained by the World Meteorological Organization -- able to represent any kind of data, along with its specific spatial/temporal context and any other associated metadata
- GRIB (GRIdded Binary) -- standardized by the World Meteorological Organization's Commission for Basic Systems -- a mathematically concise data format commonly used in meteorology to store historical and forecast weather data
-- Wavelength (talk) 05:29, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
I prepared this entry for addition under the heading "General" but I have withheld it from the list because its scope is enough larger than only environmental topics that maybe it does not qualify as an environmental website. Nevertheless, I am placing it here as a topic of interest.
- New Scientist - published by Reed Business Information Ltd - covering recent developments in science and technology regularly includes features, news and commentary on environmental issues, such as climate change
Deleted?
editThere's a note at the top of this page that the list was deleted, following AfD. There's a cryptic reference above this to a deletion review, but the link's broken. I assume a DRV found to restore the article, but can a permanent link to this be placed below the AfD decision box at the top? Thanks. --Dweller (talk) 09:38, 15 September 2008 (UTC)
Done -- Alan Liefting (talk) - 07:08, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
