Talk:Computational geometry

message: Just a short comment on the link "Geomtry in action": 99% of the links on the "Geomtry in action" - Site are dead. I know, a link like "Geometry in action" sounds good, but it's useless if none of the links on a site dedicated to collecting links works. I suggest deleting the "Geomtry in action" - Link.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.138.39.59 (talk) 12:19, 27 April 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Useful and useless links 

message: hello- I just added four references for books on the topic. two points to note.
**One, I'm not sure that the last book by O'Rourke belongs there, as it's the only non general book on the topic, still, I found it very useful to my understanding of computational geometry
**Two, Maybe we could list title's ISBNs and compress authorship a bit somehow? I'm not sure about citation conventions, if someone wants to fix it up, that would be great
If someone disagrees, and feels such information doesn't have a place here ( it goes go out of date quickly) -- by all means, pull it out, but it's handy to point readers to more external sources of information, IMHO.
***Also -- more external website links would be useful, if anyone is so inclined.
-----------
*O'Rourke's book is a good general reference if you remove all the code; it should stay, IMO.
*I put the references in a more academic style and wikified them.  See Wikipedia:Cite_sources for a reference on these BibTeX-style citations.  In my opinion, one shouldn't go to great lengths to keep a citation short -- I see thorough citation as an essential part of any academic community, although exceptions must be made.  I say that having cited cell biology papers with > 50 authors.  groan!
*Godfried Toussaint's webpage has some decent-to-good Java tutorials on various problems that he has students do for projects.  I won't put a link to it because (a) I don't know how much interest there would be and (b) he was my prof, so there's a bit of bias, but if someone else thinks it should be linked, by all means put it up!

thread_title:  Books added 

message: *Oppose. to merge List of books in computational geometry here. It is not a simple bibliography. It is a list with annotations. We have quite a few separate lists of books. It makes sense to merge articles accidentally started by several people on the same topic or to merge some unimportant issues that do not really warrant a separate article. Keeping the dicussed pages separately does not hinder understanding of the main topic in any way: the list is just one click away. The supporters of merging  may look at it in this way: the "list of books" page is a merge of several separate small articles for individual books. I hope it will make you feel better. `'mikka 01:19, 13 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge proposal 

message: In the list of computational geometry problems, should we add 
* Sweep line algorithm? 
* Dynamic programming?
What about the problem of calculating the area of a union of N rectangles? It seems to me a very basic geometric problem. Does it have a page in Wikipedia?

thread_title:  List of problems 

message: There is a whole series of new articles awaiting new article review, with computer science talk page templates. See :Category:All unreviewed new articles.  For example, Kinetic triangulation.
I would appreciate reviews by an editor who knows this subject and can provide talk page templates with class and importance. The  tags should be removed, and of course any tags for problems should be added. --DThomsen8 (talk) 13:09, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
