Hello and welcome to Wikipedia! --mav


I really like your contributions to China-related topics. You might find the List of China related topics useful, and it would certainly be useful if you could add the articles you create on this page. That would help people working on these topics follow the changes, and work on the overall organization of these articles (how should they link to each other? do we need a structured summary?...).

Also Capital of China and Four great ancient capitals of China should probably be merged. Take care. olivier 07:47 Nov 28, 2002 (UTC)


Hi Void

Good work on the Labour economics article. I have one question. After you specify the output (supply) function, you say: It is an increasing convex function with respect to LS . . . Do you mean labor supply, as it says, or do you mean labor demand? Keep up the good work on the economics articles. mydogategodshat 19:02, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I see now that you must mean labour supply. mydogategodshat 19:16, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

I noticed you inserted a space for a diagram. Do you want me to draw it, or are you going to? mydogategodshat 23:15, 14 Feb 2004 (UTC)

Hi. Please note that under Wikipedia naming conventions, we don't capitalize every word in an article title. RickK 03:38, 15 Feb 2004 (UTC)


Hello again VoidV

You might be interested to know that there is an economics article Labor market nominated for Wikipedia:Featured article candidates. If you have the time, could you take a look and leave any comments that you feel are appropriate. mydogategodshat 04:10, 9 Mar 2004 (UTC)


If you're interested, please visit the Wikipedia:China-related topics notice board. --Jiang 02:13, 24 Oct 2004 (UTC)

Yield ?

I was looking at the page for Yield. I think that you put in the part about the yield of a bond being the current yield. (Accept my appologies if this is the wrong talk page.)

That is not the way the word yield is used in the bond markets in the United States. One would never say "yield" to mean "current yield". Yield would always mean bond equivalent yield. The controlling reference (again, in the United States) is the documentation published by the Bond Market Association (which used to be called the Public Securities Association). I am thinking of adding some explanation to the article, and I wanted to see if there are other thoughts. Morris 00:21, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)

(in response to your message(s)) -- I'll change that sentence, and add a few more sentences explaining "Yield to Maturity (YTM)". Best regards, Morris 00:44, Dec 10, 2004 (UTC)

Article Licensing

Hi, I've started a drive to get users to multi-license all of their contributions that they've made to either (1) all U.S. state, county, and city articles or (2) all articles, using the Creative Commons Attribution-Share Alike (CC-by-sa) v1.0 and v2.0 Licenses or into the public domain if they prefer. The CC-by-sa license is a true free documentation license that is similar to Wikipedia's license, the GFDL, but it allows other projects, such as WikiTravel, to use our articles. Since you are among the top 2000 Wikipedians by edits, I was wondering if you would be willing to multi-license all of your contributions or at minimum those on the geographic articles. Over 90% of people asked have agreed. For More Information:

To allow us to track those users who muli-license their contributions, many users copy and paste the "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" template into their user page, but there are other options at Template messages/User namespace. The following examples could also copied and pasted into your user page:

Option 1
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions, with the exception of my user pages, as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

OR

Option 2
I agree to [[Wikipedia:Multi-licensing|multi-license]] all my contributions to any [[U.S. state]], county, or city article as described below:
{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}

Or if you wanted to place your work into the public domain, you could replace "{{DualLicenseWithCC-BySA-Dual}}" with "{{MultiLicensePD}}". If you only prefer using the GFDL, I would like to know that too. Please let me know what you think at my talk page. It's important to know either way so no one keeps asking. -- Ram-Man (comment| talk)
