SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 21:50, 10 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Quotient space
I left a comment for you on the quotient space talk page. I think the article was correct to begin with (if opaque).
BTW, welcome to Wikipedia! Lunch 18:41, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Accused of vandalism
I was surprised today by a box informing me I had a message. To my further surprise the message accused me of vandalising an artictle I had never read. Ok, it was directed at my current IP, which my ISP assigns randomly every now and then. I'm wondering if that was an automated message or if it's up to the editor to decide. In the second case, please stop. That's like fining someone for using the same road as speeding offender..

[edit] DC Meetup notice
Greetings. There is going to be a Washington DC Wikipedia meetup on next Saturday, July 21st at 5pm in DC. Since you are listed in Category:Wikipedians_in_Maryland, I thought I'd invite you to come. I'm sorry about the short notice for the meeting. Hopefully we'll do somewhat better in that regard next time. If you can't come but want to make sure that you are informed of future meetings be sure to list yourself under "but let me know about future events", and if you don't want to get any future direct notices \(like this one\), you can list yourself under "I'm not interested in attending any others either" on the DC meetup page.--Gmaxwell 00:26, 15 July 2007 (UTC)

Welcome, and thank you for experimenting with Wikipedia. Your test worked, and it has been reverted or removed.

- Not a test and not vandalism--we tried to "undo" the same edit at the same time and somehow that resulted in my "undo" undoing yours. Before flagging someone as a vandal I always check the person's record--it's not something you want to do lightly.--Todd 01:35, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

- Understood - my apologies, I will double check in future. B. van der Wee 01:42, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Epic and monic
Hi; I've added a reference to the statement in Categories for the Working Mathematician. I did want to note that the assertion you queried was not that the terms are not in common use, but rather that the distinction that Mac Lane attempted to draw is not in common use. Bourbaki defines epimorphism to mean a surjective homomorphism (in what would later be called a concrete category) and a monomorphism to mean an injective one. When Category Theory was founded, they used "epimorphism" to mean right-cancellable, while "monomorphism" was used for left-cancellable. Unfortunately, while in a concrete category every injective map is left cancellable and every surjective map is right cancellable, the notions to not coincide in general. This led to ambiguity as to the meaning of "monomorphism" and "epimorphism." Mac Lane attempted to settle this by introducing the terms "epic" and "monic" for the category-theoretical meanings, and leaving "epimorphism" and "monomorphism" the meanings from Bourbaki. However, the category theoretical meaning of "epimorphism"/"monomorphism" is already very common in many areas, and Mac Lane's distinction has never really caught on.
