Talk:Mining engineering

message: Mining engineering has two main field of study:
* Mine exploration
* Mine extraction
Mine engineers will concentrate on mining activities which are most contributed before production. Mainly:
1- Data acquisition and analysis of ore recognition, exploration and locating, using knowledges like
1.1- Geology
1.2- Geophysics
1.3- Geochemistry
1.4- Tektoniks
1.5- Paleontology
2- Mining design, in the view of how to extract and process the ore, design on underground structures and heavy structures like
2.1- Dams
2.2- Tunnels
2.3- Open pits —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Bobax (talk • contribs) 11:22, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Subjects to be added 

message: I added Health and Safety and moved Reclamation to relate to the environment.  I also wikified the article somewhat.  Is there anyone that can improve the format?
Also, the health and safety may need some work as in shortening or easier to read. Again, anyone who is more experienced can be of great help.
This is a nit-pick, but I am unable to figure out how to capitalize the "engineering" in the article heading "Mining engineering." Deekayfry (talk) 16:33, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Per the MOS, engineering shouldn't be capitalized as it is not a proper noun. The Seeker 4 Talk 16:36, 12 October 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Additions and Wikification

message: At present, the sections "Mining health and safety" and "mining and the environment" have only US-specific content, which is inappropriate for an article such as this that covers a global topic.  Both sections badly need to be expanded to cover other countries.  The lengthy US coverage does not belong here, as it is already contained in other US-specific wiki articles: Mining Safety and Health Administration and Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act of 1977.  I would like to see the US-specific content here shrunk to a summary paragraph each, with a wiki link to the US-specific article.  Any thoughts?  Plazak (talk) 13:48, 14 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I would make a subheading under each of those sections called "US law" or "In the US" or some such, place all the US content in these sub-headings, and leave the tag requesting expansion at the top of each heading. I would also reduce the coverage to one or two paragraphs each, with appropriate "main article" links at the top of each "US" sub-heading. If i have a chance today I will work on this myself, but please don't wait for me to do it if someone else has the time as I can't guarantee I will get to it.

thread_title:  US-specific sections 

message: After reading the article a few times, the overall tone is pointing to discussing Mining but not adequately Mining engineering.  So, I rewrote sections that were in listed form into paragraph forms and tied them to the profession and not the definition of the action itself.  I am the most guilty at losing the focus on the engineering aspect.
So, for the future I think we should look at revising the Mining Process and the Environmental section.  They need to be reworked to reflect upon the study and profession and not the process itself.
FYI, I added "US Salaries and Statistics" to move the tone back to mining engineering. Deekayfry (talk) 02:08, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: You are dead-on correct in pointing out that much of the article centers on Mining (the activity) rather than on Mining engineering (the scientific disipline).  Mining has its own article, and there is too much overlap here.  For instance, mining goes back to prehistoric times, but I doubt that much engineering was involved until about the time of Agricola, if then.  Plazak (talk) 13:53, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia.
This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link.
If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting.
If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page.
If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request its removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta.
When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags.
The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true.
Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

message: Hi, I noticed that under the heading mineral exploration that it was claimed that mining engineers searched for a mineral deposit. Where this came from I can only guess. I've made an edit to reflect reality. Cheers, Markd2 (talk) 08:20, 9 June 2018 (UTC)
