Wiki update again
Jul 8th, 2006 at 1:30am
 
Hello All Project Goliath Wiki updated again

Quick review for those who don't want to look:

Resort of the main page to that index is more detailed.

Miscellaneous category changed to heading as the is not text for it.

Nearly all of this category has something in it.
Zwiebeltuete to finish and mod Ammunition page
Making of Slings filled in apart from the Historic works Willeke as said she'll attempt making an Egyptian sling for instructions on this page. Please heaps of praise on her so she has a reason to finish it for us.

The Physics stuff needs to be checked but is filled in including the Magnus effect stuff, have also mailed a univesity professor for linkage/grab of his data on the Mangus effect. Waiting for reply right now.

Other bits need doing: Reconstruction of slings (At least the ones Willeke is not working on)

Ammunition Physics

Ammunition Making (Modern)

Knots

Well that's about it will do history stuff much later as I have some stuff to talk to you about with those.

For the interim, can you use the articles on sling making?

So many times I have seen it spelled wrong here...

oops.   Embarrassed
sorry.  it is because of the way it sounds in my head.  i try not to make that mistake, but it is my american english and that infamous phrase that we learn in preschool and kindergarten when we are learning how to spell.  perhaps you are unfamiliar with it.  here it is:
"sound it out"
it assumes that all words are spelled the way they sound, and it is a terrible habit of mine.

i am very sorry willeke.

No problem, I did wonder if my name was really so imposible.

Siguy,

It takes team work to get these things done, if you have something to offer then make the suggestions people will be listen (Actually watching) and help out, but if you don't do then no one is going to do it for you.

On a side note. Never ever get on the a womans wrong side because their wrath can be mighty dangerous, and I sure wouldn't want to wear the lovely lady Willeke's wrath more than you need to.

That's also good advice for any relationship, also small things are more important than the big things. That takes some learning, well at least for me it did.
