Talk:Terri McCormick

message: I spent about an hour looking on google and at the library.  Cannot find independent sources for:
* name change to "Terri McCormick Dawson"
* PhD
* claim that she founded "Wisconsin Charter School Association" (WCAS)  - this independent source from 1997 (Volunteers Honored With United Way Golden Rule Award. Wisconsin State Journal (Madison, WI). (May 10, 1997)) says it was somebody named June Coleman. I imagine it was a group of people but that is the only independent source i found about it. That organization shut down in 2014 per this capture in internet archive. 
* claims that she wrote Act 27 of 1995 -- (here is legislative history; per that it came from the governor's office. per this it removed a bunch of restrictions in the original 1993 law.  I looked for McCormick or even the "Wisconsin Charter School Association" as involved with writing the legislation and didn't find anything.
She self-published an autobiography:

thread_title:  123 hard? 

message: Certain numbers, such as 113 and 123, are particularly difficult to solve under typical rules. For 113, Wheeler suggests Γ(Γ(4)) −(4! + 4)/4. But who is Wheeler? He is not mentioned elsewhere in the article.
Whoever he is, his solution to 113 uses the gamma function. I have long believed that 113 is impossible to obtain using the set of operations I was restricted to (essentially, all those listed in the article except gamma function and subfactorial) but has this ever been proved? (Annoyingly, the value 113/16 can be obtained with only three fours, but there seems to be no way to reach a solution for 113 from this.)
There is no indication in the article of why the five fives and six sixes variants are considered notable enough for so much space to be given to listing their solutions. Whereas four fours is an excellent recreation because it has enough scope to hold the solver's interest for a long time, while being restrictive enough to require a lot of creativity in solving the harder numbers, allowing five or six digits makes the lower numbers too easy, and the puzzle becomes only of interest to computer algorithmists.
However, four ones, four twos, four threes and four fives are all rather interesting variants, although all of them have a smaller range of obtainable values than four fours (because sqrt(4) is an integer, and 4! is small enough to be very useful). Four fives is solvable for all integers from 0 to 67 inclusive, and 67 requires a particularly cunning solution:

Talk:Trinil 2

message: I noticed that you have added merge tags to a lot of the human evolution fossil pages I have recently created. I understand that these pages are pretty short stubs right now, but I disagree with the merge tags. Eventually I will add pictures and more details about each find. I think if we merged the specimens into the species we might lose a lot of the info. I suppose in a few species represented by 1 or two fossils it wouldn't be too bad to have a section on each fossil, but on species with 5-6 representative fossils, it could get congested very quickly. Also with new fossils being found, we never know how many a species may have in the future. Let me know what you think. Nowimnthing 11:41, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, OK; I checked out the Taung child page. Makes sense now. So, just go on and remove the tags at your discretion. Sorry for the hassle... I was browsing throught the paleo-stubs category and found the pages odd, so I tagged them. Dysmorodrepanis 11:54, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Merge tags

message: 1. Some species have numerous fossils finds, since Wikipedia is not made of paper we can have information on each of these very important finds but that information may be cumbersome in a species article if there are numerous specimens.
2. Each find should eventually have at least one picture if not more, allowing people to see the specific features scientists use to classify species. Again this would be cluttering in a species page.
3. A standardized look to the fossil pages giving pertinant info like date discovered and age will give researchers faster access to the info than trying to dig it out of a species page.
4. Some fossils either have not reached a consensus about their species classification or have changed classifications in the past. Having their own page makes it easy to note the controversy and change the classification if necessary. Nowimnthing 16:56, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Comments, anyone

message: Looks like this one's going to be called Amphiesma stolata after all:  McDiarmid's second volume isn't out yet, but apparently stolata takes precedence over stolatum in his 2004 draft. The EMBL also agrees: .
McDiarmid's 1999 checklist, "Snake Species of the World: A Taxonomic and Geographic Reference, vol. 1," is what ITIS uses for its classification of snakes. It's been described as the most significant reference work since Boulenger's 1893-1896 checklist, "Catalogue of the Snakes in the British Museum," and is about as authoritative as you can get these days.
Otherwise the article looks okay... except that you need to cite your references (not just list them). If you've seen any of my work, you'll know that I'm pretty fanatic about this, but in my opinion it's the best way (and our only option) to convince readers that they should take our articles seriously. This is currently an important issue, as Wikipedia recently received a lot of criticism for not being accurate enough. --Jwinius 12:43, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

example Power converter points to switching power supply, yet their is an Frequency changer article which talks about power change, their is also a article on Frequency mixer which seems to concern the math of a frequency converter.
The plan is to move a decription of the various types of converter tubes out if the pentagrid article, and explain all of them hereFrequency converter.
