Great Article - Von-Mises Fisher distribution

That is a great article, keep up the good work. Have you seen the mathematics portal? Benjaminstewart05 15:54, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Italiotis

Tomixpf hi. I cannot understand where you spotted vandalism. At the moment there is a superb covent garden ring circle running. I tried to add some comment on that. If you don t agree with them fine erase them. But would you be kind enough to add a reference according to your understanding for the performance in covent gardens? It is pitty not to be included.

Kanti Mardia

Sorry, you were right, a quick search of sleepywood.net shows no mention of Kanti at all. BETA 13:05, 3 February 2008 (UTC)

Ayaan

Question: You mentioned on the talk page that you could tell the editor of the defamatory article was Leaveout by IP address. How can you track an IP address? Might be a silly question, but I don't know how to do it...and it would be helpful in situations like that. Thanks.--AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 09:09, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

It's simple: click on the IP number that is shown as the user name, and go to the WHOIS button at the bottom of the page (there are other options there as well). This will give you some idea where the IP number is located (often a school or university, or a specific local provider). You probably already knew this, anyway. Thanks for the good job on the Ali page, BTW! Cheers, Tomixdf (talk) 09:32, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

Thanks...I didn't even know about the WHOIS button. Have a good one!--AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 09:37, 4 February 2008 (UTC)

That WHOIS button really comes in handy...76.221.184.75 is based in Richardson, Texas. He/She is a psycho with all of this Ayaan stuff.--AgnosticPreachersKid (talk) 11:15, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

Ritonavir

Hi,

It's good to see that you are interested in ritonavir article. I hope that with our constructive collaboration the article will get better.

I beg to disagree with your opinion of the interactions section. You are right that wording was not particularly fortunate but the content is very much worth incorporating into the article.

1. drug interactions section is a legitimate information that no article on a medication can do without
2. the info is based on a verifiable, respectable source of scientific/medical information
3. drug interaction sections has already been added to hundreds of articles (with FA among them)

Please see and comment on my latest edits.

Best regards,

Boudin photo

Oh, it's not my picture, I just noticed that it was being used on the black pudding article, but not the boudin article itself. It looks like the creator of the image is still active on Wikimedia Commons, if you want to ask him about it. --McGeddon (talk) 22:23, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Oud beersel.jpg

RFC/U Logicus 2 (Draft)

I am drafting a Requests for comment/User conduct concerning the conduct of Logicus (talk · contribs · count · api · block log) since the abortive RfC of February 2007. Since you have been involved in a past dispute at Talk: Bayesian probability, I would appreciate it if you would look over the draft and see whether it seems appropriate, what revisions you would propose, or what you could add.

At the moment, parts of the RfC are little more than outline points and the desired outcome is totally undefined, but with cooperation perhaps something can be put together that could make it through the process.

I had hoped that this RfC would not need to be posted, given the recent closure of a content RfC on Logicus's edits. However, Logicus's recent comments suggest that I may have been too optimistic.

Feel free to either edit the draft or submit comments on its talk page. --SteveMcCluskey (talk) 21:37, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Two Envelopes Paradox

Hi - I replied to your note. Dilaudid (talk) 17:50, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

Two Envelopes Paradox

I was thinking about trying to do something about this, But... I think trying to fight any battles on this is a waste of time. The article is a shambles, but it's only on a logic puzzle, who cares? Dilaudid (talk) 12:28, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

I do think it matters. Such "paradoxes" are often abused to cast doubt on the Bayesian probability calculus. It's an outrage that such nonsense persists on Wikipedia. It's a spectacular example of how the Wikipedia model breaks down due to one abusive editor. Tomixdf (talk) 13:25, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Well, I might stick around to try to put it right - so I've cut my more negative comments. It is a silly waste of time article, but it frustrates me that I cannot easily and simply spot the flaw in the argument. Dilaudid (talk) 19:05, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
