message: The formulation of the above is not exquisite ... Viete died one century before Euler's birth. 
I'd see for that : The above formula is now considered as a result of one of Leonhard Euler's formula - branded more than one century after (if we may get those dates). Thank you.  -- DLL   .. T 17:35, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  reference 

message: Here is a suggested addition to the content, with reference.  I have requested similar text be added to the page Thomas J. Osler and Wallis product.
In 1999, American mathematician Thomas J. Osler discovered that Viète's formula and the Wallis product (1656) are two special cases of a more general infinite product, which has been referred to as the Osler product by Arndt and Haenel, according to whom:
"The Osler product [which takes a parameter p] turns into the Viète product as p tends to infinity, and is equal to the Wallis product when p = 0.  In the intermediate cases p = 1, p = 2, etc., we obtain combined Viète- and Wallis-like products"
Will an appropriate editor please make this addition?  I have a COI.  Thank you!Skymath1 (talk) 04:02, 28 November 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: I added a mention to the Thomas J. Osler article.  I'm not convinced that mention is WP:DUE in this article, however.  From a quick look through the literature, there appears to be a modest industry in finding formulas relating Viète and Wallis.  Osler's result has modest citations in this area.  It might be possible to write a section on relations between the two formulas (that is, to put Osler's result into context), but this would be a larger project.

thread_title:  request for mention of "Osler product" 

message: Well now, doesn't this beg the question of what exactly an "infinite process" is? Why wouldn't the harmonic series count? It's quite well known that Oresme proved the divergence of the harmonic series c. 1360. 
Please give a clear argument why the harmonic series is not considered an "infinite process," including a suitable definition of the latter.

North and South Wootton have both been villages for hundreds of years it is you who must get their facts right. i also know that north wootton is approx 3 miles from kings lynn as this was the catchment area for my school bus of which the LEA offer letters detailing your distance from the school. so it is at least 3 miles give or take a few, i dont think most people will really care much about the details do u, there isnt much touristy things in the woottons any way if you've been.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.203.172.157 (talk) 22:33, 28 January 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Contradiction on phylogenetic age 

message: Hi all,
First, a big thank you to Rob Hurt for updating and improving the definition. The only comment I have is that the correct range for the number of laminae in the paleocortex actually is 3-5.  In fact, it usually has 3 layers.  Purves is very confusing in the way it presents this info.  In the 4th edition, the info that paleocortex typically has 3 layers is on page 666, while more general info (that it has fewer laminae than neocortex) is presented on page 831.  To make matters worse, they write that archicortex has "even fewer laminae", rather than "sometimes fewer laminae," than paleocortex. Then things get even more complicated when (back to p.666), Purves notes that the hippocampal cortex has 3-4 layers and comments that it is comprised of archicortex.  So now we have info that archicortex sometimes consists of 4 layers, after which Purves writes that paleocortex is probably more primitive than archicortex, the opposite of what you would expect if you went by their info on p. 831 (neocortex has greatest number of laminae, then paleocortex, then archicortex).  
Why they organized it like this is beyond me!  
Anyway, normally I would just make the relevant changes, but I've noticed that you're operating from the 5th edition while I've got the 4th.  Is this information updated or written more clearly in the 5th?  In particular, is there an analogous info box to the one on p.666 of the 4th?  The one in the 4th is box 26A and is at the beginning of chapter 26, The Association Cortices, if that helps at all.  I would be happy to just make the edit if you'd prefer, but I'm very curious to see if they've updated this info.

message: There are a number of issues with the lede. Based on the foundational constitutional principle of the separation of powers, it is misleading at best to suggest the Tribunal makes decisions on behalf of state government. The legislature, the executive and judiciary protect and maintain their independence to the greatest extent possible. For the same reason, I would not describe VCAT as a "government agency". Yes, it is a creature of statute, and has no originating jurisdiction that a formal Court has, but it's not a government agency in the way there is public transport (if it's not outsourced) or the FBI, or a Royal Commission etc.
Secondly, 'miscellaneous' is not the best word to describe what is now being reported as one of the largest judicial bodies (measured by annual number of applications made) in the Southern Hemisphere.

I should maybe change it to "more soluble" though, since the rest of the molecule can sometimes counteract that effect. I looked through a few procedures and where precipitation was mentioned it was mostly due to a saturated solution of bisulfite being used to promote precipitation or adding more salts to "salt out" the adduct. Small bisulfite adducts are actually hygroscopic or even deliquescent, but larger aldehydes might form much less soluble ones and precipitate very easily. A lot of procedures do not precipitate the salt and it remains in the aqueous part of the solution. MasterTriangle12 (talk) 22:23, 24 February 2023 (UTC)
