Orientation help for Contributors
If you want to contribute something non technical or slightly off-topic please first turn to the general discussion page.
When you link from a serious page to a page containing speculations and or far off ideas please add the string "(speculativity warning!)" in italic.
Most valuable will be contributions that answer issues marked with "To investigate:"
Please don't forget to add further "To Investigate:"'s when further questions arise.
Attainment of atomically precise manufacturing (APM) is a rather Interdisciplinary endeavor. The different areas of research and development that are necessary also require different levels of specialization of knowledge. Depending on your knowledge area and level you may contribute to different parts - look for what best suits you.
Improvement of technology level 0 to technology level I is the most important but also the hardest part. Also there is a gaping hole in technology level II. If you are a cross breed between scientist and engineer and have the possibility to do physical experiments in this area you are the ideal person for the job. A huge amount of preparatory work can be done for technology level III. If you have some technical expertises and consider yourself a Leonardo Davinci of the new age :) go looking here to help.
- It's always good to try to split up ideas into their most atomic little pieces so that they can later-on be sorted and classified.
Readability should be preserved though, meaning the starting pages shouldn't become overloaded with too much highly specific information. They should be and stay enjoyable to read. - Pleas avoid personal opinions. Just add new ideas at the best fitting place as neutral as possible. If something in retrospect is found to be biased please leave a note or try to balance it.
- Recommendation: If something is elegantly generalizable in most cases it's best to mention the special case(es) before.
- Redundant descriptions in different contexts make sense - it's good link to a (possibly not yet existing) detailed common description page
