Production leveling page move

Hi, I noticed that you moved content by copying and pasting it rather than using the move function. Wikipedia has a built in move function (which can be accessed using the move tag at the top of a page), which avoids a number of problems that arise from copy/paste moves. Copy/paste moves do not preserve the history of the page, and it also leads to a duplication of the article. I'm going to place a tag on the new page, Production leveling requesting that an administrator delete it. Once it's deleted you can use the page move tool on Production levelling to move it to it's new title. See WP:MOVE for more details. If you have any questions feel free to contact me. --Darksun 11:24, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

NICE illustration, Facius! It's a great improvement to Heijunka box! :) --Busy Stubber 00:02, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

Can you add citations to Heijunka box? It would be really helpful to have WP:Reliable sources noted in the article :)

Unrelated, did you know that it's typical in Wikipedia to archive your talk page rather than delete stuff? When someone else looks at this talk page, they see my comment coming under the heading "Production leveling" because you deleted the heading about the NICE illustration. That can confuse people who want to understand what you're doing and why I'm saying what I'm saying. Hope this is helpful! --Busy Stubber 01:38, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

Deleting comments from your talk page

Please do not keep deleting comments from your talk page like you did here[1]. Just leave the comments in place until the page is long, then archive your talk page. This lets others follow your conversations related to Wikipedia articles. --Busy Stubber (talk) 00:35, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

Norwich Twenty Group

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Norwich Twenty Group, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Norwich Twenty Group.

Lean concept - 3D

I first learned of the 3D term in several graduate lean manufacturing courses. Please reconsider your removal of 3D's from the lean manufacturing category. Granite07 (talk) 04:33, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Sorry to replace 3D in the lean category without asking your permission, I thought it was obvious enough that it was removed by accident. I only now have read your posting in the middle of the 3D discussion page. The following references are not cited on the 3D page but do make the connection between lean, TPS and 3Ds clearer. Discussed in the introduction on page 2, the author seems to take this as somewhat common knowledge. http://books.google.com/books?hl=en&lr=&id=wYyJoS3Cex4C&oi=fnd&pg=PA1&dq=%22lean+manufacturing%22+%22dirty,+dangerous%22&ots=WdR6cNzQkU&sig=9ZYGV8Alom3kEGa5SOMLGe7lQWw#PPA1,M1, This second source is written in Swedish? but is titled Lean Automation and contains the term "Dull, Dirty, Dangerous" in the introduction on page 1, http://www.diva-portal.org/diva/getDocument?urn_nbn_se_mdh_diva-519-2__fulltext.pdf. Though these two sources are not conclusive that 3D is a lean term, they do show 3D is used within lean literature. Excluding 3D from the lean category will put some readers wanting a fuller explanation for 3D without a link in the category page.Granite07 (talk) 05:00, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

A poor implementation of lean can result in a 3D environment. The employee empowerment to "stop the line" and produce incremental innovations in TPS is what separates man from machine. This is my third and final argument for why 3D shoule be included in the lean category page.Granite07 (talk) 16:12, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Square-Rigger

Remeber? Once you updated "Square Rig" with the definition A ship at least partially so rigged is called a square rigger. In the german wiki we have a discussion about this, maybe you have a source. O has it just been the resume of the article? --CeGe (talk) 11:43, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

Huhu? --CeGe (talk) 07:09, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Is a bit frustrating seeing you work and beeing ignored...--CeGe (talk) 07:20, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Disambiguation link fixing one-day contest

I have decided to put on a mini-contest within the November 2013 monthly disambiguation contest, on Saturday, November 23 (UTC). I will personally give a $20 Amazon.com gift card to the disambiguator who fixes the most links on that server-day (see the project page for details on scoring points). Since we are not geared up to do an automated count for that day, at 00:00, 23 November 2013 (UTC) (which is 7:00 PM on November 22, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the project page leaderboard. I will presume that anyone who is not already listed on the leaderboard has precisely nine edits. At 01:00, 24 November 2013 (UTC) (8:00 PM on November 23, EST), I'll take a screenshot of the leaderboard at that time (the extra hour is to give the board time to update), and I will determine from that who our winner is. I will credit links fixed by turning a WP:DABCONCEPT page into an article, but you'll have to let me know me that you did so. Here's to a fun contest. Note that according to the Daily Disambig, we currently have under 256,000 disambiguation links to be fixed. If everyone in the disambiguation link fixers category were to fix 500 links, we would have them all done - so aim high! Cheers! bd2412 T 02:23, 18 November 2013 (UTC)
