[edit] Caves on wikipedia

Work on Wikipedia:WikiProject_Caves has begun. Trying to drum up interest in any place where cavers meet.

Caves I can remember visiting.
Titan (cave), Swildon's Hole, Goatchurch Cavern, Gaping Gill, Ogof Hesp Alyn, Steinbrückenhöhle, Peak Cavern, White Scar Caves, Lancaster Hole, Stoke Lane Slocker


Look for more caves in Category:Caves_of_England.

[edit] Machining

My special area of expertise is with Computer-aided manufacturing, specifically software generating G-code for CNC Milling machines.

I wrote most of the algorithms in machining STRATEGIST while employed at NC Graphics, and intend to explain what I can of these hidden algorithms that are the basis of so much manufacturing.

Work begins on Computer-aided manufacturing. It's pretty hard to get it down.

The basic starting point is cutter location.

The whole layout of this area of wikipedia is shambolic, which pretty much represents the sloppy state of terminology in the industry, and the complete disconnection the academic establishment has assumed in relation to the state of the art in this technology. It's not obvious how to sort this out.

One could lift the terminology from brochures, but everyone who writes them just makes it up as they go along. We need to see some consultation with users to work out what they like to call these things.

Even being able to resolve CNC, G-codes, 5-axis milling machings, and CAM into separate concepts is impossible at the moment.

I've got a set of pictures from a text I attempted to write, which I will upload when I can.

[edit] Undemocracy.com

I am currently very active building www.undemocracy.com which is designed to make official UN documents accessible to wikipedians.

[edit] Parliamentary infomatics

I have also found I have a talent for writing parsers of online badly structured data, and used it to build Publicwhip to uncover all the MP's votes in Parliament. A byproduct of this work was input into theyworkforyou.
