Toy model

There is currently a discussion at Talk:Toy model about a possible merger of the article and about some related content issues. Notably, Toy model is currently tagged with Template:Unreferenced. If anyone is interested in doing some research and adding more content, with reliable sources, to the article, it would be greatly appreciated. Biogeographist (talk) 20:05, 2 April 2017 (UTC)

Project categorization

FYI MartinZ (talk · contribs) has been categorizing cosmology into philosophy and out of astronomy. As this is a topic pertaining to astrophysics, I thought I'd let you know. For the various discussions, see Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Astronomy#Unilateral_changes_for_this_project and WT:COSMOLOGY -- 70.51.200.162 (talk) 04:59, 11 April 2017 (UTC)

Should we merge WP:COSMOLOGY as a taskforce of WP:ASTRONOMY?

See the above discussion. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 14:07, 13 April 2017 (UTC)

Crosspost, as physical cosmology involves astrophysics and universal theories of everything, thus potentially relevant to members of this project -- 70.51.200.162 (talk) 04:58, 15 April 2017 (UTC)
A joint task force under both Physics and Astronomy projects might make better sense. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 10:48, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

How to get article upgraded from stub status?

Hi, I've just made improvements to Edwin F. Taylor which I believe make the current version much more than a stub. For the Wikiproject Biography stub, there appears to be a Requesting an assessment section to get the stub label upgraded. I couldn't find anything similar here at WikiProject Physics – did I manage to miss something? Or is there no formal upgrade process (below GA/FA)? Can I just change the stub project label myself? Markus Pössel (talk) 10:34, 17 April 2017 (UTC)

Markus Pössel, you didn't, there isn't, and you can. If you feel it's better-than-stub, by all means change the assessment. Primefac (talk) 12:19, 17 April 2017 (UTC)
OK great! Thanks for the information! Markus Pössel (talk) 10:14, 19 April 2017 (UTC)
