Talk:Disjunctive normal form

message: I was taught that DNF was more than simply a sum of products. I was taught that each clause of products must contain every literal - thus making every equivelant function expand to the *same* DNF form (in other words, equivalent DNF forms do not exist, there is one per independant function). Please let me know if we should include this in the definition. Fresheneesz 21:04, 6 February 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: History

message: The 2nd sentence starts with "As a normal form, ...". However, I would question whether DNF is (despite the name) a normal form. As per the Wikipedia defn, a normal form is a standard way of representing an object. However DNF does not give you a standard way of representing equivalent formulas. E.g. p \wedge q and (p \wedge q) \vee (p \wedge q) are two different DNF representations of equivalent formulas. The same argument applies to CNF

message: The song is an homage to/pastiche of the entire Ike & Tina Turner mythos. The lyrics follow the story of their breakup, Prince's lead guitar is heavily influenced by Ike Turner's solo style, and finally, the song's debut on SNL featured Tina-dressed backup dancers and Prince dressed as Ike. This is hardly original research -- I read it either in Rolling Stone or Robert Christgau, but my Google-fu is failing me.

Talk:Seamus McFly

message: I suggest a merge between this page and the Maggie McFly page.
This is mainly due to the fact that the pages for these 2 characters have not been developed to the extent the others have. I would write up a full and complete biography of Seamus and Maggie, but I feel a lot of it would be repeated on both pages.
Thus, I propose a new page entitled "Seamus and Maggie McFly" where a biography of both of them can appear. The 2 current pages would be redirected to the new one.
Thoughts?

thread_title: Photograph

message: The article states:
Hansen is also infamous for the phrase "you'll never win anything with kids" having made the remark following Manchester United's 3–1 defeat to Aston Villa on the opening day of the 1995–96 Premier League season. After selling high profile players like Ince, Hughes and Kanchelskis in the summer of 1995, United had introduced several youth team players including Ryan Giggs, David Beckham and Gary Neville into the first team, yet went on to win a league and cup double later that season.
This is completely incorrect, Giggs made his debut for Manchester United in 1991, Beckham in 1993 (in the 1995 season he was actually on loan to Preston North End) and Neville in 1993 also. The quote about "you'll never win anything with kids" was directed at a number of other teams and has been proven to be correct on a number of occasions. The implication that Giggs, Beckham and Neville were all kids in the 1995/96 season is also nonsense, Giggs was 24/25, Beckham 22/23 and Neville also 22/23. The "kids" quote was directed at teams using players of 17, 18 and 19 years old.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.241.42.202 (talk) 19:26, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
