Talk:The Dragon Can't Dance

message: Although historical context is very important to any novelist, and especially to Lovelace who knows and incorporates historical themes into all of his work, the current section has grown entirely out of anything resembling a reasonable proportion.  1700 words is overkill.  Inasmuch as references to Trinidad's long history (centuries of Arawaks, Caribs, Spanish rule, British rule, biographical details, agriculture, industrialization, globalization, independence) contribute directly to an understanding of the novel's plot or its characters, themes, critical reception, and literary context, then these things should be included.  For example, it helps to have an understanding of the historical issues that have arisen among descendants of Africans, white West Indians, creoles, and the descendants of people imported from India after The Slavery Abolition Act of 1833.  Otherwise, some cuts and a judicious use of links and citations will do the trick. Josh a brewer (talk) 12:49, 30 May 2012 (UTC)

Talk:Peter Durand

message: Nicolas Appert's book Le Livre de tous les ménages ou l’art de conserver pendant plusieurs années toutes les substances animales et végétales appears in June 1810.
The following August 25, Peter Durand file a patent where he says use a method communicated to him by a person residing abroad : « When I received from a friend abroad, more than a year ago, a communication of the discovery above described ». More than a year ago = therefore in 1809. 
Who was this friend?
According to the letter Appert (ref F12 2384 French National Archives), Philippe Girard went to England in 1810 after acquiring the book. So it's not him.
According to the edition of Le Livre de tous les ménages in 1831, a Gérard went to England with the book. So post in June 1810. So it's not him.

Talk:Prony's method

message: How is it that there are only N samples for F(n) whereas the matrix equation makes use of F from 0 to 2N-1? Bsofly 16:47, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

message: In the article I read:
"Because the summation of complex exponentials is the homogeneous solution to a linear difference equation, the following difference equation will exist:
:\hat{f}(\Delta_t n) = -\sum_{m=1}^{M} \hat{f}[\Delta_t (n - m)] P_m, \quad n=M,\dots,N-1.
The key to Prony's Method is that the coefficients in the difference equation are related to the following polynomial:
: z^M - P_1 z^{M-1} - \dots - P_M = \prod_{m=1}^{M} \left(z - e^{\lambda_m}\right)."
Considering the single-mode situation, where:
:\hat{f}(\Delta_t n) = \hat{f}(\Delta_t 0) (e^{\lambda_1})^n
we clearly have:
:\hat{f}(\Delta_t n) - e^{\lambda_1} \hat{f}(\Delta_t (n-1)) = 0.
Transforming this into a difference equation (whether or not this is the same as Z-transforming, I am not completely sure, but I am more or less following from the article), we get:
:z - e^{\lambda_1} = 0.
But this difference equation, according to the notation of the second equation quoted from the article, corresponds to:
:z - P_1 = 0,
with a minus sign in front of P_1, so we can identify:
:P_1 = e^{\lambda_1}.
Substituting this into the first equation quoted from the article, as it is until now, with M = 1, yields:
:\hat{f}(\Delta_t n) = -\hat{f}[\Delta_t (n - 1)] e^{\lambda_1},
which clearly contradicts the second equation derived by me.
I conclude that the minus sign on the right-hand side of the first equation quoted above is erroneous, and that a similar flaw is present in the first matrix-vector equation in the article, as it is until now. I will therefore correct these errors shortly.Redav (talk) 17:30, 28 June 2020 (UTC)

message: The edits that were done on this article which I am reviewing were added to the "war" section and the "weavers" section. 
War Section: 
Everything added/incorporated into this section is relevant and does not distract from the articles purpose. The additional information is neutral. No view points are over or under represented. The links work. The information comes from reliable sources and is not out of date. The added information to this section regarding Kollwitz reason to create the Cycle and a valuable new insight and understanding. 
Weavers section: 
The addition of the quote to this section by Kaiser Wilhelm adds an important detail of the way that The Cycle was regarded solely because the artist was female. Very important for a reader of the work to understand and added in a factual/neutral way.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lilycoyl (talk • contribs) 01:19, 9 April 2019 (UTC)

message: Hunger strike implies not eating. Here the article also claims she did not drink. How can wikipedia allow such ridiculous hoax? Anybody not drinking for a few days dies.

So 10 years of not eating is just ridiculous, especially for a lean person. Please rewrite this article completely to preserve the respectability of wikipedia.

message: Currently, in the "Oase 1" section, it is stated that: "He was not more closely related to ancient European hunter-gatherers than to East Asians, suggesting that his population did not make a significant contribution to modern European ancestry."
I know this is more or less literally taken from the research paper - but it has a deep logical flaw.  From uniparental DNA, we know that Europe was populated from Africa via eastern West Asia, the subcontinent, and/ or SE Asia, ~43,000 years ago.  Since then, both East Asia and Europe have drifted away from that range of founder populations for over 40k years.  Thus, one would not expect a closer affinity of a very early European to either side.  Instead, Oase 1 and his companions could very well be 50 - 80 % the ancestors of modern Europeans (taking into account Gravettian and West Asian and Eastern European admixture that originally might have been close but since then drifted in isolation, or received Southwest Asian and "basal Eurasian" admixture).  
Wikipedia itself states South Asia as the origin of y-DNA haplogroup F (although it may have been the NW portion of the subcontinent and adjacent regions).
At the minimum, this page should be edited to say that the above statement is the authors' conclusion, but can be criticised on the grounds I mention.
