message: The "Board of Election" is almost certainly mentioned in error; and if it is somehow correct an explanation is needed. Probably the Board of Education was intended, and the Department of Education is even likelier. Since the source appears to have been a broadcast, it will take me too long to check it.

Talk:Cyrix coma bug

message: A simple fix is to insert another instruction in the loop, the nop instruction being a good candidate.
This is not really a fix for the problem. The problem is that any program can lock up the cpu, without giving the os the chance to do something about it. Unless the above statement implies scanning all programs for suspect opcodes, patching them, taking into jump targets and self-modifying code, that is to say, effectively running all programs in an emulator, it is not a fix. Shinobu 22:52, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The point is that if your program runs similar code, and it's causing the computer to lock, even though it was not your intention, adding a nop will avoid the lock. However, you're right that in an intentional attempt to trigger the bug and cause a DoS, it's not a solution at all. 201.212.126.164 14:02, 6 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  article reads as if it was written by the ACA 

message: A user has edited the description of the ACA to include the term 'pseudoscientific'. As there is no definitive or objective definition of the term "pseudoscience", it is commonly used as a pejorative term, and the citation provided (to a 2008 blog post) is not to a peer-reviewed publication.
As the use of perjorative language is inconsistent with Wikipedia's NPOV policy, it seems as if it should be removed. How do others feel about this?

Nothing in that even hints to the non-mathematician finding this page that this is not about a medical subject.  And the omission of a link to Max Dehn is weird.  I've changed it to say:

replies: text: Today I tried to flesh out the article a bit.  I mostly added to and restructured the old article. Rybu (talk) 19:20, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Great!  I changed some attributions.  First, Dehn did not prove what is often called the Lickorish-Wallace theorem in 1938.  AFAIK, none of the standard references credit him with the result.  It's true that Lickorish proved the theorem in a way that Dehn could have, but that's no reason to credit it to Dehn.  I suppose in his papers somewhere could be a proof; however I doubt this for the following reason.  John Stillwell has collected Dehn's classic papers (including the 1938 cited paper) and translated them into English with commentary.  He later wrote a book on topology and combinatorial group theory where he explicitly credits Wallace as being the first to prove the surgery result. (I was able to check this latter book on Google Books, but unfortunately not the first)  Second, the cobordism result was attributed to Thom (1954) but Rohlin had a paper on it in 1951.  I don't know how the attribution is usually done for that, but Gompf and Stipcisz's book credits Rohlin so I went with that.  --C S (talk) 16:16, 14 December 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Delta method

message: I could use more comments in the binomial example.
For example, how does this follow? "the asymptotic variance of {\displaystyle \log \left({\frac {X_{n}}{n}}\right)} \log \left({\frac  {X_{n}}{n}}\right) does exist and is equal to .."
For example, how does this follow? "since p>0, {\displaystyle \Pr \left({\frac {X_{n}}{n}}>0\right)\rightarrow 1} {\displaystyle \Pr \left({\frac {X_{n}}{n}}>0\right)\rightarrow 1} as {\displaystyle n\rightarrow \infty }  n \rightarrow \infty .."
For example, how does this follow? "the logarithm of the estimated relative risk {\displaystyle {\frac {\hat {p}}{\hat {q}}}} {\frac  } has asymptotic variance equal to .."
I'm sure these are trivial to someone who can already see it, but I don't.
Also, more text about the practical implications of this example would be good.  The relative risk thing at the end is a start, but what about the proportion itself?  What is a concrete, real-world example?
