Yeah, you have to type in the search bars where you want your search to start and end alphabetically.

Yes, that search widget is there. It would be much better to know what is available, not stabbing around in the dark.

Try from 1 to Z. The only thing missing from that search is zinc and its compounds. 1 to Zinc Sulfide would cover everything, but for some reason that doesn't work.

I am considering adding a page about chemistry related software (Chemsketch, ChemDraw, Chem 3D, CAMEO, Yenka, etc.), but I don't have a good name for the title.
Any suggestions?

"Chemistry software" or "Software tools for chemistry", or just "software tools" all seem fine. One of us can always change it later.

And Open Babel! Absolutely THE BEST EVER!
I have written two pieces of software that I can write on in the wiki, but I have a super-busy schedule, I won't get to it till the weekend.
I also would like to request that I be allowed to make a series of manganese articles. I can start them on Saturday, but I just wanted to ask that people would wait for me to start them, as I am rather excited about the topic, and have been experimenting with manganese recently. It's just that I started a thread which has become popular on manganese chloride, and I think that might draw attention to the subject. It would be very courteous if everyone would let me write those articles!
Thanks!
I hope to get working on the wiki a bunch this weekend!

I have to say, I don't like the new wiki Visual Editor, as I can't access the Source directly (I prefer the Source as it's easier to correct mistakes).

Same, but there isn't much we can do about it. I still like the idea of hosting it all on a server with media-wiki, it's a better interface, but it doesn't matter too much.

Added Chemical test, where all important chemical tests should be listed and linked to their respective article.

Huh? I thought I was logged on when I wrote the article. I was logged on this morning and I still am.

Sounds like a good list. I'll have to add PTLct-2, a potassium ferrocyanide/potassium ferricyanide metal ion testing solution ;) (just kidding...)
Making good progress on the wiki.

What the **** happened? I made two edits yesterday, you can clearly see it in the wiki log, and now it tells me I lost a day? :mad:
Some Happy New Year from Wikia.

No idea how, but a huge number of pictures are somehow missing from the wiki. If you click on their links you get a message saying they're no longer available!

Ah, it's all back the way it should be. Could've been a bad connection in the earlier half of the day, or maybe something weird went on with the wikia servers. Either way it's fine now.

What are you-all's thoughts on a missing persons page of the SM Wiki? Just thought it might be a good Idea. No-one make it till we've discussed it, though.

That would be good, but I think we should put pages pertaining to the forum under the category Forum:
