- Phonograph cylinder - If you don't like it, I'd like suggestions for improving it. Infrogmation 17:14, 12 Oct 2003 (UTC)
- Great article, especially -- as I see it -- the implicit parallel between the demise of the phonograph cylinder and the audio/videotape. Professor Higgins might be mentioned. --KF 12:58, 22 Oct 2003 (UTC)
- "If you nominate a page to which you have contributed all or a large majority of content, then it must be seconded by at least one more person in order to be accepted." (see above) Well then, where's the problem? --KF 15:26, 4 Nov 2003 (UTC)

- Titanium - self nomination. This is a reference article showing everything I want all the chemical element articles to be.
