Editorial board application of Michel BAKNI

 * Most of your experience appears to be with Wireless Sensor Networks which would be great to have available! If there are Wikipedia articles that you believe could benefit from being reviewed for the WikiJournal of Science, I hope you will consider suggesting submittal to their contributors. --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 02:55, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * FYI: (Editor-in-Chief) -- Alaa  )..! 12:02, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I think that it would be ideal to have some more information. E.g. for teaching, how long & what topics. Are you still involved in research since your phd? For research, is there anything in addition your the items listed on ORCID that people should be aware of? (also, thank you to for pinging me). T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 11:41, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Thank you for the updated details on the application. That seems to be highly useful mix of academic and technical work and an expertise range that complements the current board's topics well. Wikimedia admin experience is, or course, always a valuable skillset to have bon board as well. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 11:05, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Your experience on Wireless Sensor Networks is interesting and would be very welcome in the team. I agree with Thomas Shafee that it would be nice to have some more information about your research; and if possible a website link. Chiswick Chap (discuss • contribs) 07:49, 19 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Good background with Wikipedia and another area to enhance subject knowledge in our group. --Saguaromelee (discuss • contribs) 17:27, 9 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Per the reasons given above. Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 21:00, 13 August 2021 (UTC)


 * It would be good to have more editors to help with CS submissions, and it looks like the candidate meets all the requirements. Natematic (discuss • contribs) 10:46, 8 November 2022 (UTC)

Editorial board application of Roger M. Rosewall

 * Additional note: "My systems engineering experience is fairly broad, but I claim particular domain expertise in defense, intelligence, and homeland security." - Roger M. Rosewall by email
 * Additional note: "As a volunteer organization, INCOSE depends on the time and effort graciously contributed by individuals like yourself, supported by your organization, to make its programs a success. Through this leadership, we develop and share information that improves the practice of systems engineering by member individuals and their companies. Again, thank you for your time and commitment to INCOSE and the Systems Engineering community." - Excerpt from thankyou letter forwarded by Roger M. Rosewall by email

'''I'm closing this one as a decline for now since the board was unable to come to consensus. Despite definitely useful networking via INCOSE and technical & professional skills, there are significant reservations raised regarding lack of familiarity with the open movement and the connections with Raytheon.''' T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 03:59, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * We occasionally get submissions using applied systems that may need your expertise and review. I hope you would be willing to do this. When you write "using MediaWiki to collaborate on a Raytheon project" I assume you mean the Raytheon DOMino program. Have you uploaded a copy of MediaWiki for this use or are you using the WMF projects? Have you considered contributing to the various Wikipedia articles on Systems Engineering? --Marshallsumter (discuss • contribs) 02:29, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Certainly we could do with some more engineering knowledge on board and appreciate that professional engineering generates different outputs than academic engineering. Some more information would be useful though, e.g.: What does being a reviewer for INCOSE entail? Do you maintain a broad systems engineering knowledge or are you specialised in a particular aspect? T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 11:37, 18 April 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with the other editor comments and would love to hear more about INCOSE. --Saguaromelee (discuss • contribs) 17:23, 9 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Not enough detail in the application, not enough reactivity to the questions here. Apply again when more experienced with MediaWiki? Sylvain Ribault (discuss • contribs) 20:53, 13 August 2021 (UTC)
 * I agree with Sylvain Ribault. There is very little evidence to support open experience aside from "using MediaWiki to collaborate on a Raytheon project", which I would assume is military-related and closed access. That example demonstrates poor (or mis)understanding of the open movement. This individual had no meaningful contribution on WMF projects.  OhanaUnited  Talk page  19:55, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Roger has certainly worked collaboratively at INCOSE, where he has played a significant role. That organization shares meta-knowledge (engineering process knowledge) across national boundaries from what are often otherwise confidential projects, which are themselves highly collaborative within their supply chains, often involving multiple tiers of contractors and sub-contractors to meet client requirements. Roger will be an asset to the editorial team. Ian Alexander (discuss • contribs) 11:40, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

 * - Althrough I'd have preferred more information in the application, their areas of expertise would be highly valuable as an associate editor to contact for those submissions that fall across ecology and biometeorolgy. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 05:57, 3 November 2022 (UTC)

Associate editor application of Alex O. Holcombe
I am aware of the nascent psychology WikiJournal, which I could potentially switch to later, but my research sits between psychology and neuroscience in a sense, and also I do meta-science research which might fit best with WikiJournal of Science?

--Aoholcombe (discuss • contribs) 05:21, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * . Alex has the passion and I believe will greatly contribute to the editorial board.  OhanaUnited  Talk page  20:04, 13 November 2022 (UTC)


 * . A stack of relevant experience - particularly in the early stages of journal establishment. I'd similarly be happy to see them on an editorial board, so I have no hesitation in supporting an assoc editor application. They'd be welcome to additionally join, ore more over to, the in prep psych journal once it's finally up and running. T.Shafee(Evo&#65120;Evo)talk 01:13, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
