User talk:HolgerK

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi all, this has been my first week working in and with WIKIPEDIA - and I have to say I am beginning to see this as a fundamental part of the way we access and disseminate information over the we in the future. I particularly enjoy the user friendliness and openness of the concept as a wholeas well as the web-interface!

The inventor/s of this and the people who keep it going should be congratulated!

I look forward to a few hours a week pondering over the meaning of words and waiting for the reaction of the world community... I will be putting my focus on the Earth Science articles both in German and English.

[edit] Geophysical survey

Thanks for your edit to the article Geophysical survey, as it helped to point out that a more general article on geophysical survey was necessary. The article has since been moved to Archaeological geophysics, which better reflects its specialized scope. The page Geophysical survey is now free for a more general overview article that I, as an archaeologist, am not qualified to write. -- Tapatio 20:06, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
