[edit] Royce Da 5'9"

Your wish is our command. *Poof* -- done.  :-) SWAdair | Talk 06:15, 7 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Quantum circuit

Please have a look at my edit to quantum circuit. I tried to deal with your objection. Did I miss something? Thanks. --CSTAR 14:09, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)

[edit] constructivism (mathematics)

Unfortunately I think your "improvement" in the disambiguation notice made it worse, because those who are looking for "other meanings" in this case very often DO NOT KNOW that the philosophy of mathematics-education is another meaning and is not what the article is supposed to be about. Piaget is not relevant here! Michael Hardy 20:15, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

Hi Michael -- I see what you mean -- it hadn't occurred to me that mathematics and education overlap in mathematics education -- I was just thinking that all meanings of constructivism are created equal and there seemed to be no reason to single out education from the others. These warnings shouldn't be too long, though, I think -- is my shortened version of your warning OK?

Wrong, wrong, wrong! You're totally missing the point! "all meanings of constructivism are created equal and there seemed to be no reason to single out education from the others"? The point is: the word "constructivism" in philosophy of education and the term "constructivism" in philosophy of mathematics refer to two entirely different things. In philosophy of education, "constructivism" is a tenet about the way people learn by "constructing knowledge". In philosophy of mathematics, "constructivism" is about the sense in which mathematical objects such as numbers, functions, sets, etc. can be said to exist, and how their existence can be known.

[edit] Re Davidson copyright violation

Hi! Thanks for the heads-up on this; it slipped under my radar. Well, even though there is no copyright notice on that site, I think we should err on the side of caution and assume that it is unless explicitly stated otherwise, so I removed it again and added a note on Talk:Davidson. I notified the user who inserted it, too, although he has not contributed for awhile. HollyAm 03:50, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Non-imposition&monotonicity

That was a very nice example! Thank you. Well, I give. I need to recheck my notes. It will take me some time, as I will be completely offline in the next month. But I promise to come back and pursue this with greater detail. What I had in mind was what Arrow called "positive association" of the welfare function. Your examle is intriguing - it shows that monotonicity isn't equivalent with that. I think you should show it around more. I wonder what the others will have to say about it. Also, I have a feeling that this should be no more than a freak pathology having to do with having just one voter. Can you show this phenomenon in general with any number of voters? Where did this example come from? mousomer 18:34, 6 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] State Great Khural move

Thanks for the tip. My comments are on the talk page. AjaxSmack 03:46, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article in need of cleanup - please assist if you can

[edit] framing merge proposal

Please see Talk:Framing (sociology). - Grumpyyoungman01 14:01, 3 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] First Nations of Canada

I'm sure there was some reason why I did that, but I at this point I don't remember, and you're right, it doesn't seem to make sense. I'll fix it. - TheMightyQuill (talk) 03:36, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tätort

Hi Joriki!

I think it's best if it says for instansce: "There are 17 localities in Falkenberg Municipality" and the word "localities" should link to the page "Urban areas in Sweden". That's the way I'm going to write in the future. Jensapag (talk) 13:27, 23 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Missing Supreme Court Cases

You know, I actually don't know why they weren't listed. I have a strong suspicion that it is because the non-included cases were denied certiorari although that is a decision in itself and there can be dissents. I'm not sure why the missing cites weren't listed on the Supreme Court's website where I got the cites originally. Sorry it took me so long to respond (Holidays). --Cdogsimmons (talk) 01:26, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Elephant

Stephen Colbert involved? Why no, never... ;)

Also the population went from 8,000 to more than 20,000. I think three times is a reasonable estimate. You could say two and a half, but that doesn't count the more than part, and it also doesn't read as well as "The population has tripled." Xizer (talk) 21:45, 28 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hellenistic

In line with your general proposals, I have reorganized the articles on Hellenism/Hellenization/Hellenistic period etc.etc.

• Hellenism now re-directs straight to a disambiguation page.
• Hellenism (Greek culture), replaces the old Hellenism article, and is listed on the disambiguation page, but re-directs to Hellenization
• Hellenization now gives a brief definition of the general use of the term, and points the reader to Hellenic civilization for an overview of the spread of Greek culture after Alexander.
• Hellenistic civilization gives a description of the spread if Greek cultre after Alexander
• Hellenistic period gives a description of the events of the Hellenistic period
• Hellenistic Greece specifically gives a description of the Greek peninsula during the Hellenistic period.

Hope this works for you!MinisterForBadTimes (talk) 20:46, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Rob malley redirect

Hi Stifle,

your edit summary for Rob malley says "certainly not an unlikely typo". I'm wondering whether you noticed the lower-case 'm'?

Joriki (talk) 15:59, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

Indeed I did. Many people searching for a term in Wikipedia will type only in lower case, or in mixed-case, and may type the URL directly of their desired topic. As the software will assume that the first letter of an article title, but no more, is upper-case, and redirects are cheap, I see no reason to delete this page. Stifle (talk) 16:08, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] The Razor's Edge (1984 film)

Do you think this article is stub? Otolemur crassicaudatus (talk) 06:45, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

I think it's probably too large for that; you might consider replacing the stub template by an {{expand}} template. Joriki (talk) 07:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
